Yes, but I think we’re quickly beginning to realize that if you are not a white heterosexual male, you are DEI! Listen up ladies! Body autonomy, equal pay, now child custody! LGTBQ has been wiped. All brown and yellow people are being hunted.
Have you seen the documentary BOOGIE MAN: the Lee Atwater story ?
On you tube- he taught politicians the art of reframing racism in language- he was a law partner with Roger stone and Paul Manafort- it explains a lot about how we got here
As a Fed, resumes go through an HR services review before they make it to the hiring managers desk. So I'd never see those resumes. They'd get tossed even if they were the only applicants.
i agree with the sentiment. I get the joke. please do not let the fascists take "DEI" away from us. yes, obviously as a policy but neither as a powerful term in discourse. DEI is a wonderful thing. My family has benefitted. I will be watching Democrats who run from publicly supporting DEI.
MAGAts think they are clever with their asinine acronyms like TDS. Morons can't spell or are too cowardly to say what they really mean. If you hate POC then say it with your full chest instead of hiding behind DEI, cowards.
And for reading class today children, we will read the book;
"Aliens are eating our pets."
"Alien is a big word, so we can just say "brown" or "black". See children? It's easy."
DEI is the new CRT. Is anyone hollering about CRT anymore? No, of course not. They had no idea what CRT was and they don't know shit about the workings of DEI either.
The answer is before Trump supporters. A federal court kilked a ban on 18-20 year olds being allowed to buy guns. Not long ago, Trumpies were saying college kids didn't have the life experience to be allowed to vote, but they're now saying they can buy guns. Hypocrisy. YOU are the problem, not us.
That image looks like a fictional character played by British actress, Haley Mills, in a 1960s Disney film. No evidence that she is a MAGAt or supports Trump.
Might seem a slight drawback, that the only people this tactic fools are the other people wanting to join in, and also screech the 'n'-- er, the DEI word, but here we are. They talk to each other, and ignore us 'woke' people.
We cannot wait until til someone comes to save us this time. We need to make noise & get loud ourselves. Call your Senators & let them know you are afraid, disgusted and why. Keep their phones, texts, social media lines lit up. Get loud! And keep doing! https://www.house.gov/representatives/find-your-representative
Yeah, it's like racism gets lazier the shorter the vocabulary. People reduce entire cultures and histories to a single syllable and think they've made a point. It’s not even creative anymore, just the same old bigotry, streamlined for efficiency.
I've never seen such a display a psychopath as I ever have before right before my very eyes, Donald Trump, and all his people. These people are psychopaths they want to blow up the earth. They have no mission other than to destroy.
We all know that to them scrapping DEI simply means a return to the quintessential white guy dominated model at the expense of female, minority etc talent
They accept DEI and AA when it goes by the name of Clarence Thomas. The man who loathes AA but accepted it when he went to an ivy league college for his juris doctorate.
I will resist everything the orange bloated felon and his fucking band of incompetent Republican clowns throw at us for the sake of the oligarchs.
This ain’t Russia, yet.
I'm right there with you, Phillip. It's not too late to fight for what's left of our democracy.
There was a small victory this week. So many people called their reps that the orange creature rescinded the federal aid freeze. This proves that we the people still have the power and need to use it.
Everyone knows he is a racist and became complacent with trump considering those who are not white are subservient. They aren’t fooling they are serious. The message is clear and will hit hard soon.
This is so true! I was in Seattle last summer at the time Boeing was having major quality issues. I overheard a small group of people that appeared to be vendors to Boeing. When talking about those issues, a woman in the group said "Are they DEI?".
Trump's Safety vs DEI claim is a Trump spurious correlation, a veil for a white straight male agenda! Obviously, eliminating DEI is misogyny, bigotry & racism-no correlation to safety! Trump & his weasels use death, disaster & scapegoating for political gain! Not an ounce of decency!
Richie Neil from Massachusetts gave a scathing speech in a video. I have known him for years, I have never seen him so pissed! Also, the dem senators recorded a video over not being welcome to attend the hearing on Vought. Each took their turn at the podium. It's 30 mins., well worth the watch!
Oh yes are fooling half the American public. I had lunch with three white penis people (christians, no less) who are fully on board with booting DEI. They think it’s great. As an atheist woman, I don’t.
They started by attacking CRT and made some headway, but it had the disadvantage of actually including the word 'race.'
Then they decided DEI was perfect. You could open openly racist without using any using any of the words typically associated with racism.
And, it had the added advantage of letting those so inclined be openly misogynistic and ableist without actually saying so.
Just "Nudge, nudge, wink, wink. You know what I mean?"
If any of my family or friends fucking mention DEI I'm going to insist that they just use the N word because that's what they want to say. In honor of Catherine Rampell: JUST SAY IT! If nothing is wrong with it FUCKING DO IT or STFU!
His deep orange dream matte mousse really fills those giant pores.
Imagine all the years of crusty gunk sqirting out of those blackheads on his chin when he finally gets curb stomped.
Exactly! I was telling three friends over the weekend that maga scum use the word “DEI” as a substitute for the N word. Also as a racist insult for every minority & a way to hate on women. I don’t understand how we got to this place where 30-40 percent of the country is hateful scum
I know you are probably right about the percent. The way I heard it explained was “if you are willing to look the other way and accept Trump’s racism, unending lies, and evil and still vote for him, that makes you an evil racist too.”
Irunamuk, I guess that explains part of how the evil dictator got so many votes. I don’t understand how he got more than one vote and I never will. I will say most people I know hate him & would never vote for him. Some that voted for him hate him.
That's exactly what it is. If people look at the full press conference that's what Trump was doing. He blamed any non white person for the tragedy. Many of his supporters will hear the speech and think it's fine.
It really drives home the point that the real harm and insidiousness of racism isn’t so much about individual actions, but how the system is really organized around putting people of color a a disadvantage.
The term DEI is co-opted to attack and undermine the qualifications of non white Americans. A racist dog whistle to communicate the idea a person of colour is unqualified. DEI is this year's way to casually degrade nonwhite people. Decent people recognize the slur.
"DEI" became the pick hit of the year, because "CRT" ran out of steam. The Idiots got confused when they ultimately couldn't find any examples of it in little Butchie and Melissa's textbooks.
Oh we've known about his hard-on for his own daughter for years. My fantasy was that in one of those "debates" or "interviews" with him, someone would ask him to his face if he had a sexual predilection for his own daughter.
Just to see the Smug drip off his face. With luck maybe he'd throw ketchup
The billionaires were panicked at the browning of America. Fear that they will have to share $'s with them. Fear of their intelligence and resilience. I don't remember the president that said, "Greed will be the downfall of America." And here we are.
Absolutely 💯!! I'm sure in the convicted felon's mind, you know every time he says "DEI" he's subconsciously thinking the "N" word!! #NotMyPresident #ConvictedFeloninChief
DEI vitriol aimed against Black Americans is the new blackface. No they are not fooling anyone! After the George Floyd murder companies were tripping over themselves to initiate BLM marketing. Now our government and corporations are trying to roll US back to Jim Crow!
They want white people to believe that they don’t have because Black Americans and Newcomers are in jobs they are inferior to do. That’s BS and it’s going to wreak havoc on American job openings.
They are not trying to fool anyone...they don't care.
They have every single lever of power that they need from The White House to the tech bros and all social media...and all points in-between like Congress, SCOTUS and the actual media.

Donald's
Exponential
Incompetence
Or Pete Hegseth's?
What does DEI stand for?
For Black History month, be historic and define what those three letters, actually mean.
I value and support diversity. This country is a melting pot and we are stronger for it.
Unless you are indigenous people, your family somewhere in the distant past
came over on a boat from somewhere!
DEI makes us strong!
They do in fact seem to be.
The intellectually vulnerable, which can also be classified as violent and dangerous.
powerful women will do this. Will YOU?
"Aliens are eating our pets."
"Alien is a big word, so we can just say "brown" or "black". See children? It's easy."
EXACTLY !
#MAGAnaziMORONs AKA RepubliKKKlans
DEMONIZING phrases as a CloaKKK to manipulate &
maintain their BARBARIC White Dominance
DEI = EQUALITY
Anti-DEI = Barbaric anti-Equality
like with ANTIFA
Antifa = ANTI-FASCIST
Anti-Antifa = PRO-FASCIST
Their Gullible supporters fall for it
Now fire his ass.
We all know that to them scrapping DEI simply means a return to the quintessential white guy dominated model at the expense of female, minority etc talent
It is so blatant and so obvious
Prime example is the current press secretary / or Pam Bondi etc
Great book cover BTW.
Dumb & Extremely Ignorant 😂😂😂

The streets are still our friends.
At least for now.
Somehow, I managed to not throat punch her.

Just "Nudge, nudge, wink, wink. You know what I mean?"
Different day.
Imagine all the years of crusty gunk sqirting out of those blackheads on his chin when he finally gets curb stomped.
Half of his voters are deplorable racists, but the other half are misinformed suckers. There are many in this country who simply don’t pay attention.
They hid it well
uniformity vs diversity
lockstep vs freeform
* See White Fragility
I will be using that!
It really drives home the point that the real harm and insidiousness of racism isn’t so much about individual actions, but how the system is really organized around putting people of color a a disadvantage.
This is where magas loose their S.
Definitely
Excluded
Individuals
Just to see the Smug drip off his face. With luck maybe he'd throw ketchup
We know when they say DEI they mean NSB*.
(*Niggers, Spics & Broads)
So disgusting!!!
