As Twitchy readers know, a ‘slide’ from an alleged diversity training at Goodyear made it’s way to social media and after an understandable EXPLOSION, Goodyear quickly released a statement claiming it was not their slide.
Except now it sounds like it was.
Ruh-roh.
Listen:
Wow. Leaked audio proves that Goodyear’s statement was bogus. It also shows that the discriminatory policy is WORSE than first reported. It actually discriminates on explicitly racial grounds. Which is definitely illegal. Not to mention racist.

Ho-lee CHIT.
Wow. What a lying bunch of clowns @goodyear

Audible laughter in the background. I know what the workers think of this policy.

Can you imagine if GY had said you can wear blue or white lives matter but couldn't wear black lives matter???? Then this would be a huge story….double standards is what people are sick of!

Let's fight racism with more racism.

The incredulous laugh in the background gives me hope for humanity.

Many companies are involved in this competition. HR departments are trying to out-stupid each other.

Let’s hope these HR departments start figuring out they’re only doing more damage.
This is ridiculous, and for Goodyear to flat out LIE about and it and get caught?
Bad.
So bad.
Goodbye, Goodyear.
