What does that even mean? Is sound like something out of Mad Magazine 1965.

“Natural law” has special interpretation and meaning to gun toting bearded beergut magas and to politicians that intentionally misinterpret Christianity.

Some of the most ignorant bastards are dismantling a great country before our eyes.

All white men, all the time.

DEI was started to meet an actual need. Cutting it is part of a broader anti regulatory mindset that seems to think that personal freedom is more sacrosanct than anything else (in this case it is the freedom to discriminate).

Good grief, their brains are melting 🫠!

HIE is the new DEI

Racial tribalism does have history here, eh?

How minority Trump voters feeling about their vote now that he’s showing that he hated “DEI” cuz he is a rac1st?

Blaming the woman for not reaching out to them and making them feel special. Incels gonna incel

In case you hadn’t noticed. White supremacists are now running our government. It’s like we elected George Wallace on steroids.

ntmp.bsky.social•66 days ago

Isn’t that how they justified slavery?

mllep.bsky.social•66 days ago

homogeneity, exclusion and inequity = HEI(L)

roman1socal.bsky.social•66 days ago

Natural law? Then let's bring these back to they middle ages and get plundered..the need it.

maudewallace.bsky.social•66 days ago

Not only are they in, they are “natural”.

suelda.bsky.social•66 days ago

Natural law??? JFC!

twitskeptic.sirvin.com•66 days ago

Just substitute "integration" for "DEI" in that statement and it's pretty easy to see where he's coming from.

bandedhawk.bsky.social•66 days ago

You forgot stupid, oafish, and inbred.

corruption47.bsky.social•66 days ago

Um, natural law? But MAGA doesn't believe in evolution or science or logic or facts. So.....their natural law is what is the New Testament? Meaning fratricide (sp?), polygamy, murder, incest, crucifixion? That natural law?

Much of what’s behind the anti-DEI movement: religious bigotry towards the LGBTQ community.

What can you do to about companies dropping DEI policies? Use your wallet!

- Getting a new car? Only buy from a minority employee.
- Buying new carpet? Use a minority-owned company.
- Research products & companies BEFORE you buy.

Seek out minorities for EVERY purchase moving forward!

This underpins Scott Galloway’s constant concern about young men in America. The premise of which is that they’ve been left out, victimized, excluded and left to become self-harming or violent.

SO…if we don’t make sure boys are presumptively entitled we get what we got on November 5th????

ohcanadienne.bsky.social•66 days ago

By making this point as often as he can on Pivot, he dog whistles to people like Ferguson and the moron’s voters. I’ll make MY point again: instead of teaching young men that there’s something very wrong with their predicament—teach them that rebalancing culture can fucking pinch for a gen or 2.

ohcanadienne.bsky.social•66 days ago

Teach them justice, not the individualism that leads us back to the need for DEI, which is that these males, since time began, stomped all over the rest of us & wrote laws to favor themselves. Bc THEY’RE disadvantaged it’s our fault they’re suicidal/homicidal? Underpins the motive of mass shooters.

elsiemi.bsky.social•66 days ago

These incels really have issues with folks not like them!

billylunn.bsky.social•66 days ago

Claiming outdated ideas as ‘natural law’ is an admission to clinging onto a version of the past that you just happen to be acquainted with and comforted by. These rich, white, middle-aged dudes are so scared of change that I’d pity them if they weren’t so damn dangerous.
