Yes! DEI as an acronym means nothing. But saying to someone, oh you don’t like diversity? That opens up a conversation about being a racist and a misogynist.
Go one step further. Say the definition. Don't say "I oppose diversity." Say "I oppose including people from a range of different social and ethnic backgrounds and of different genders, sexual orientations, etc." Don't say "I oppose equity." Say "I oppose the quality of being fair and impartial."

I want the IT Crowd to reunite and recreate the, "What does 'IT' mean?" scene, but with DEI.
It truly is a powerful set of words.
