Discrimination by race, or sex, or whatever other unjustified trait is what's "not democratic", and the whole point of DEI is to help counter that. Your take is like realizing a playing field is not level, then complaining the mechanism used to level it is discriminatory; that is: silly.
Yes, the mechanism is discriminatory.
DEI initiatives implement quotas or targets, which undermine merit-based selection in hiring or promotion, leading to discrimination against those outside the quota.
Merit BS! Explain why many White people I work around are not even qualified and have below average skills yet no one talks about it. And yet I’ve seen same across several public companies I’ve worked. They get these jobs due to connections White DEI and corporate welfare keeps them employed.
Unfortunately, many white women haven’t quite realized they’ve benefited more than POC from DEI. Perhaps this accounts for the
silence from those that voted for him.
That's why so many men are opposed to it. They feel that women are given positions they are not up to over a man who was more suited. It's sexism revealed
Women who are not white Barbie Tore-backs. That blow up their lips boob butts cheeks and are low IQ to None. Anyone else is DEI or a racial slur we have to create Message Warriors who pull the sheets on these creeps and pound out our messages and leadership we had 4 years without PAB. Mean the mean
This is what i am not understanding about DEI and being woke
So you are mad I know or hire a black person
So you are mad I know or hire an hispanic person
So you are mad I know or hire a POC
So you are mad I know or hire a lesbian
So you are mad I know or hire a gay person
DEI is literally anyone who is not a white cisgender hetrosexual male without disabilities. We, the dei defined, are everyone. We out number them. Think about that.
And to think that 30 million people did not turn out to vote. There must have been several women and people with disabilities among them. How do they feel today?
It is our fight. It will not end here. With every victory, this evil will grow. We cannot hide within our walls, live our lives away from the light, and let darkness descend. Are we not part of this world? Tell me, when did we let evil become stronger than us?
A boy torn from life’s gentle grace,
To labor, endure, and erase,
Three camps left their mark,
In a world cruel and dark,
His pain time cannot replace.
Through acting and tales of the past,
Truths and deep history are cast.
With roles that inspire,
And stories afire,
They serve with a purpose that lasts.
Diverse talent.
DEI policies promote inclusion, which counters human indifference by fostering empathy and collaboration. In aircraft maintenance, indifference to detail can lead to catastrophic outcomes, making vigilance and accountability crucial. These relate as DEI ensures all voices contribute to be Human !
They could just as easily call DEI sensitivity training, people skills development, human psychology, social stratification, or 'How To Get Along With People Who Are Different Than You.'
Make no mistake: this is about white, Christian, Republican, MALES exerting control.
Yes she is, she taught me TM.. and it has been such a great journey into authenticity or almost Jungian individuation. Not to mention, gives me some mastery of my mind, self-talk.., etc, you cannot transcend unless you let go of surface mind disturbances or incessant chatter etc.. quite profound.
Trump despises women and the disabled. "Nasty women" and his dressing down of Gen Milley because a legless veteran was included in a military ceremony.
" Never again, no one wants to see that."
Straight white guys shouldn’t tell others what to do, then. Let everyone live in peace. We are disgusted by how the Trump administration goes after everyone who isn’t straight, white or a guy. Have seen it all before in Germany. So happy to live in free Europe.
And these initiatives are across all departments. They cover women being used in medial studies, not just men. They cover neurodiversity advocates in schools. They cover jobs for veterans.
(And you are one of the greatest actors of all time. There is a transparency to your soul that is luminous.)
Let's be clear DEI applies to ALL humans with hearts and souls who care about other humans. Who the fuck doesn't know somebody who needs this kind of boost, love, and support?
According to the GOP program women need to take care of their babies and make their husband a meal when he comes home. She is not allowed to have a career, a vote or even a voice in this country. A lot of white women have accepted this. I can’t comprehend that.
Everyone can face discrimination. Some people are even reluctant to hire our veterans because they fear that they may suffer from PTSD. It’s sad that we need protection but we do. We’re on our own now.
Yup. It’s gonna be fun watching white, straight, presumably Xtian penile-Americans do ALL. THE. JOBS. Have fun carrying all of society on your shoulders, boiz. Now get to stocking shelves.
It sure does. I read a sad post this morning on LinkedIn by a woman who was speaking at a Women in Leadership class. She found out the. Lass was cancelled because it’s part of DEI, and they cancelled the DEI programs. 1960 here we come! 😢😢
Exactly. And they’ll be replaced by H1B visa applicants instead. Americans in general are woefully under-educated compared to the rest of the developed world. We continue to defund access to education. MAGA is predominant in areas most impacted. Removing DE&I doesn’t mean they’ll get these jobs.
I will simply never stop being disappointed about the short memories of white women in this country. We are one generation removed from being trapped with no choices. Voting against our own best interests and cheering for it in some cases
What kills me is Biden could’ve added Supreme Court justices while he was president. And the equal rights act could’ve been past four years ago. And Nancy Pelosi could have put all those congressional seditionist leaders in prison.
U.S. Constitution Article 2 Section 2. And yes, there has been more US Supreme Court justices in the past. You need to do some Google searching yourself. Shouldn’t doubt somebody that knows a little more than the average Joe.
It empowers him to appoint a SCrOTUS justice along with other appointments. It does not address expanding the court and it does say all appointments require Senate approval. As we have 9 justices, he cannot appoint a 10th without first expanding the court.
FDR briefly attempted to expand the court…by legislation in 1937. It failed. And it also conclusively demonstrates that a president cannot unilaterally increase the size of the court on his own. And since Congress controls the purse, they approve the pay as well.
So while Article 2 Section 2 deals with presidential powers to make appointments, it does NOT address increasing the size of the court which would require legislation. And any appointments they make at that level REQUIRE Senate confirmation. Even recess appointments.
No, he could not have done this. It would have taken an act of Congress, which was never going to happen. And no, Nancy Pelosi didn't have the power to put anyone in prison, least of all members of Congress who are protected by a Constitutional Speech & Debate clause. Please learn some civics.
Up with Diversity Equity & Inclusion! To turn away from DEI is to fear an even playing field. It’s not minority groups getting unfair advantage from Dei and affirmative action before. DEI only puts a dent in the long term entrenched advantage majority groups have always enjoyed.
E.l.f, which stands for “eye, lip, face” and sells at Walmart, Target and Walgreens is making the business case for diversity efforts at a moment when these initiatives are under attack across the country.
A friend of mine was first woman project manager for the Christian company she worked for. She voted for him. In December, b4 Christmas she was told she was being demoted and laid off.
Enter the FO phase. But does she see it that way? No, not at all. DEI wasn’t the reason that happened. 🙄
The fact of the matter is that men, and notably young men, ensured Trump's victory. This is what they understood too and it motivated their vote. Your midterms are two years away, Trump wants to ensure their loyalty.
I would add anyone that even LOOKS diverse with dark skinned/dark hair but is 100% European (whose American ancestors immigrated her in the 1700s). This will affect those people as well. Companies might not hire those people for jobs.
I tried to warn many of them about Project2025 as well as DEI having a huge impact for white women. They laughed. I’m not quite sure it’s hit them yet. 👇🏼
Yep, same. She was posting "I'm GLAD trump got rid of DEI it was stupid and all pity-hires" and she went on to mention brown people and I reminded her it included white women then 🦗. Blocked.
I was a DEI hire in the early ‘80s - they wanted to diversify a pretty all white male staff with this white woman, and I got to help women business owners do their thing!
The new McCarthyism: "are you now or have you ever been a woman, a PoC, LGBTQ, or disabled?"
This is their Archimede's lever by which they mean to move the workplace backwards. They will be met with resistance.
Oh, I know. Mom of someone with disabilities. He and all of them suck. So do the selfish voters who didn’t vote or who didn’t vote for anything beyond their own interests.
Bishop Budde has been facing death threats since she asked Trump to show mercy to people fearing for their lives. Now even the President is painting her as the enemy and we can’t abandon her. Let’s show Bishop Budde she has massive support all around the world!
The irony of it all is that he speaks of a country that should hire based on merits, yet he uses incoherent sentences. If he were a working class person, he'd fail interviews.
This will continue, because tax breaks for the wealthy are much more important than democracy.
It includes lots and lots of disabled veterans. Not that Trump cares. He likes soldiers who weren’t maimed or captured. The dead he called fools and suckers.
Exactly! American Airlines didn’t let my daughter fly on a direct flight by herself! She flies at least 3 times a year for the last 20 years. She has CP. This happened 1 day after they dropped DEI! Just saying!!
It’s our country’s values! We are a country of diverse individuals they come from different backgrounds, have different religions, different sexes, all should be included and treated equally.
ADA soon will be eliminated. I devoted my entire career assisting disabled people and I’ve done so since the inception of the law in the 70s I’m gutted.
Just went shopping at #Costco today, and I suggest everyone else who supports DEI programs do the same. Make their stock go through the roof! Oh, and dump Meta and all things Musk. Any time someone leaves Facebook, IG or X, an angel gets its wings.
People who are so quick to denounce DEI seem unaware that it’s what gives us classrooms for kids with developmental disabilities, Individual Education Plans and funding for arts and language programs.
Women and the disabled have been conspicuously missing from the DEI conversation since the goon’s executive order; and yet, I fear that women (who comprise 51% of the entire US population) are ultimately their intended target.
White women benefit the most from DEI initiatives. DEI programs often prioritize gender diversity while failing to address the intersections of race & other forms of marginalization. This results in DEI efforts centering on white women, leaving out Black women—who face compounded discrimination.
People that vote for him don't know that. In a year. Everyone that DEI post protect. Will be jobless. And those people will then wish there is DEI. Because they are being hurt too.
And people from disadvantaged backgrounds. My friend who put himself through college and a PhD will likely lose his NIHA grant for the research he does.

In fact white women have been the biggest winners from there programmes.
silence from those that voted for him.
So you are mad I know or hire a black person
So you are mad I know or hire an hispanic person
So you are mad I know or hire a POC
So you are mad I know or hire a lesbian
So you are mad I know or hire a gay person
So you are mad I know or hire a bi person
So you are mad I know or hire a woman
All of this causes people anxiety for some reason.....
Who the fuck are you to decide who i should know or hire?
Again, who are you?
diversity, equity, inclusion
be of this world. not just in it
Why not just simply hire on merit?
To labor, endure, and erase,
Three camps left their mark,
In a world cruel and dark,
His pain time cannot replace.
Human indifference.

Judgment at Nuremberg is a 1961 American epic legal drama film directed and produced by Stanley Kramer, and written by Abby Mann.
Make no mistake: this is about white, Christian, Republican, MALES exerting control.
" Never again, no one wants to see that."
So... i hear ya.
(And you are one of the greatest actors of all time. There is a transparency to your soul that is luminous.)
Oh, yes. White, male, MAGA, Christian nationalists.
I’m both
Maybe you like belonging somewhere, guess what…
Trump had to lower the bar for his administration so DEI had to go.....
Enter the FO phase. But does she see it that way? No, not at all. DEI wasn’t the reason that happened. 🙄
Diversity = people of all colors
Equity = women and the disabled
Inclusion = LGBTQIA+
And that is why the far right hates it so. White men in power having their way.
This is their Archimede's lever by which they mean to move the workplace backwards. They will be met with resistance.

Good luck finding an attorney.
So those WOKE corporations in Red States, they can say “yeah, we are woke!” & throw some 🪄 💫
But nah… they can do anything they want. And they do.
