A good rule is to replace “anti-DEI” with “anti-racial equality” and things make more sense

Just a long, warm, welcoming Q&A with Chris Rufo, a dime-store racist and media-hating charlatan who is already wildly over-represented in the pages of the NYT.

Embarrassing shit, tbh:

A better rule is to use segregation or segregationists, which is their ultimate goal.

At this point, “anti-DEI” is just phrasing to avoid saying “racist”. ‘The racist crusader trying to …..’ would be a more accurate headline for whatever that would be.

Although, DEI also covers equality for women as well.

How about “white supremacist”?

martyolliff.bsky.social•5 days ago

Even simpler: replace anti-DEI with white supremacy. And in Rufo’s case, it’s more accurate.

The E is “Equity”, not “Equality”.

Equality is an outcome.
Equity is about how you start.

They don’t even want fair footing for the journey, let alone the destination.

I feel like even just resolving the acronym would reveal it. Anti-diversity? What's the opposite of diversity? Anti-inclusion? How does this sound good to people?

Funny how Douthat keeps pushing the MAGA policies while safely ensconced in his mansion in very blue New Haven.

Anti civil rights also def works. Much of what they’re trying to dismantle goes back to LBJ 🤬

Also works to replace "anti-dei" with "undoing the civil rights era."

Anti-diversity
Anti-equity
Anti-inclusivity

All you have to do is spell out the acronym to see it for exactly what it is. They’re not hiding anything.

Yeah, I’ve been doing that for years and trying to sound the alarm. It’s about far more than a few workshops, scholarships, or wokeism.

It’s about erasure, re-segregation, and the control of education, the media, corporate policies, etc.

Being “anti-DEI” was just a Trojan Horse.
