#42This is great, a repo of companies that are hiring folks that don't give a shit about what's going on around them!

The woke openly embrace evil and fascist tactics like censorship and book burning. Woke means to be an uninformed idiot while pretending to be a do-gooder.

#43BLM and other activists already flagged the post. Wnder how long will it survive to be on the visible list.
One of the best ideas I have seen here on HN lately. Good job who came up with it. I wish you success, but don't get your hopes up in today's political climate.

#44Earlier quoted context omitted.
> The only thing necessary for the triumph of evil is for good men to do nothing The same quote could be used in reverse. Some of us think this whole woke crap is evil. So yeah, #ImOut.
So you're saying: The only thing necessary for the triumph of good men is for "this woke crap" to do nothing. Now that I see that, I'm pretty sure I disagree.
People simply prefer to work for companies that are not evil. That's not "doing nothing", that's voting with their feet.

Unwoke candidate: "I just want to follow orders"
Ironic, as that is exactly what the unwoke people think about the woke people. They see it as an ideology that you have to "take the knee" to, a ka "follow orders", to be accepted into the community.

#46Is it ok for black people to use this service? Whole thing has a whites only vibe
Why on earth should it not be OK for black people to use the service? And what is so "white" about it? Because black people are supposed to be activists and believe in identity politics? I follow plenty of black people on Twitter who don't belong to that crowd.
Have you ever wondered if is ok black people to use Hacker News? After all, it was created by white people? (I don't even know the skin color of the creators of "Unwoke.hr" - why do you assume they have to be white?).

Or perhaps they do care, but don't think that social or political issues intersect with workplace issues.

#48I wasn't aware all the other job boards were for woke people
That's not implied by the existence of a special interest job board.
Many companies engage in woke politics and activism. How would you go about filtering them out on all the other job boards?

#49This isn't for people who just aren't activists, it's for people who hate activists. I.e. it's just the politically opposite exclusiveness.
I don't want to work in a job were activists can cancel me any time because I am a white heterosexual male.
For example since they fired James Damore, I would never consider a job with Google.
I don't like the activists, but I would tolerate them, if it weren't there nature to meddle and try to make other people bow to their will.

My son works on a job where he says he almost-daily hears people talking negatively about Clinton and Obama (years later!) and praising whatever Trump has recently done, decrying "PC culture" and generally talking like stereotypes. He'd go to HR to ask for relief, but the HR person like making borderline racist jokes about Obama, so no help there. It seems to me that company would love this site. To balance things ou…
Maybe your son would like a job board for jobs from woke companies instead.
