Poor Bill Nye, he’s the science WHITE guy.
And he’s learning the hard way that you can’t win with the party of perpetual victimhood. Especially a white guy, even if you’re one of them.
The so-called March for Science doesn't want Bill Nye to represent them because he's a "white male." https://t.co/9BbsHEON1P

Per Heatstreet:
“I love Bill Nye,” said Stephani Page, a member of the March’s board, who was critical of what she considered the March’s lack of diversity. “But I do feel comfortable saying to you what I said to the steering committee: He is a white male, and in that way he does represent the status quo of science, of what it is to be a scientist.”
WUT?

When you’re busy trying to be the biggest victim in your group there are bound to be disagreements and temper tantrums.

Freakin’ Einstein.

Picky picky.
All of this being said, the March for Science might want to delete this:
We grew up with Bill Nye!! The whole team is thrilled to welcome you as an honorary co-chair! @BillNye -Lilly

And in case they do, here’s the screencap … and someone’s silly reaction:
