Covid has fairly dramatically illustrated that "office culture" ensconces gender inequality and minority discrimination. But instead of using this as a learning opportunity, white CEOs seem desperate just to get everybody back to the office.

I kind of get it. For so many people, their work can& #39;t stand on its own. When women get to work on their own schedule, when Black people get to focus on the *tasks* and don& #39;t have to deal with Chad and Brad& #39;s hangups, they out-perform those people.

Getting back *to the office*, getting back into a position where the social costs of systemic inequality and racism can be directly leveraged against certain employees IS KEY for some people to reassert their dominance.

That it& #39;s all kind of massively inefficient and under utilizes women and minority employees DOESN& #39;T MATTER to business.

People like to think business is driven by "the bottom line," but if that bottom line ain& #39;t white (and male), it ain& #39;t right for most institutions.
