Equality not Diversity
Scratch, was once a programming website, creating to teaching young people about the basics of computer coding, and the educated them…
…But NOW, it is a political website, devoted to making projects about “equality” and other such subjects…
…But this ISN'T equality, and as of recent other posts on this forum. I, and other scratch, have stated time and time again, that the ST has not been accepting projects related to ALL races and groups, only those that are either “oppressed” or minor. So it seems, never, is a project or even CONVERSATION/COMMENT related to being straight, male, Christian, or white, is never featured or noted. Only the minority is given support. All while the Scratch team is constantly supporting the (no-offense) liberal idea that “Equality” is letting the minority get all the attention, while preventing the majority from considering themselves part of the diversity.
When it comes to Scratch, only projects related to the minority get featured. Plus, when it comes to holidays such as Christmas and Easter, only projects related to Santa Claus and Easter eggs are given credit. Projects related to their religious side, are never featured so it seems.
The point is, is that the ST should let EVERYONE, even the more-common groups of people, get noticed and featured on this site, and furthermore, Scratch is about PROGRAMMING, not POLITICS, so maybe we shouldn't even be letting all this ridiculous political debating keep popping up over and over on this website.
I know the Scratch Team is just going to ban this because i'm being “racist” or something. But can they at LEAST let the “majority” get noticed, because EVERYONE is human, and EVERYONE is part of the diversity. And preventing males, whites, Christians, and straights from getting as much attention as females, blacks, Muslims, and LGBT+ people, is NOT Equality, just DISCRIMINATION. Everyone matters on this site, even those who aren't as oppressed.

Equality not Diversity
Trying to achieve equality by keeping minorities hidden isn't going to work. It's just disrespectful of minority groups and the backwards of equality. Closing thread.
