White men ‘in pit of worry’ over doing or saying wrong thing at work
Article here. From the UK. Interesting phenomenon. Personally I don't fret too much since I'm inclined to be focused on work while at work but I can definitely see how the more gregarious would find it troubling. Excerpt:
'Almost a quarter of white men say they are discriminated against for their race and gender, according to a poll, amid warnings it is pushing them towards influencers such as Andrew Tate.
Research commissioned for White Men Can’t Work!, a five-part podcast and YouTube series hosted by the documentary maker Tim Samuels, suggested that nearly half of white men in the UK are self-censoring at work because they fear that saying the wrong thing could cost them their jobs. Some 41 per cent say they feel anxious that they can be sacked for doing or saying the wrong thing.
More than a third (36 per cent) of those under 34 say they have lost out on a promotion or other opportunities because of their race or gender, according to the polling by JL Partners. Almost half believe they will be worse off than the current generation, with 49 per cent agreeing and 22 per cent disagreeing.'
