Unironically yes, 100%, absolutely. It's more challenging on everybody to coexist in extremely diverse conditions but like using muscles that's how you grow and prosper. DEI is a cheat code for thriving. Abandoning it is like abandoning exercise, sunlight and water for darkness and Twinkies.
I believe that we need to all go out of our way to stay united. Even doing little things like greeting people. Giving some time and attention to the children in our neighborhood. I do not want to see FOTUS turn us citizens against each other.
While billionaires talk of the return of the Golden Age, the penguins from Heard & McDonald Islands and I are more than happy with silver & we know what to do with it!
Hating others, and irrational greed are all they've got.
That's it.
It's not a business model
It's not governance model
It's sure as hell not a way to live a full life
With DEI gone, America is forced to reckon with what it had been meant to stop, mediocre white men put in positions they're unqualified for due solely to the color of their skin.
DEI was the first inkling of hope I had that maybe we were finally on some sort of path to justice. I shouldnhave known the kkk would rise up again to try to squash it.
It really was because it took Everyone to build this country Black Americans Especially Black Women are some of the most educated people in the country Black Women Black people know what we're doing Now white people &
Everyone who comes here ( and enjoys the country Already Built) will see that

You mean the "master race" is made up of a bunch of inept half-wits and idiot savants? The Confederacy should have been punished the first time around.
What? How do you know the Red Green show? It was made in Canada. It indeed was funny but didn’t know it played in other countries. A bit proud now that humour translates so well!
They make it their personality. They name themselves maga Deb or some bs. you attack any other views. Threatened to primary. You are terrorists. You should go if your wearing red claiming to be together and if someone speaks differently they are a problem. Your a dangerous gang. You need to go
DEI wasn't perfect but it was something, so imagine if they get rid of Obamacare? They will replace that with nothing. Hmmm just because its not perfect doesn't mean it's not working. MAGA and the 🍊💩 go the fuck away. You don't like it here move to Russia or north Korea, you love them.
I never want to hear a white man utter the word merit for as long as I live. The U.S. is not becoming, it is being exposed as a racist sexist shithole backwater.
I'm a white man but I have to say merit, because America is not a meritocracy and DEI done right, promotes the concept. What we have now is the opposite. Justice KBJ got torn apart for being a Black Woman but she had more qualifications upon being appointed than that entire KKK cabinet.
DEI was the reason America had any success and was becoming a true Global Leader. Without DEI we will most certainly go backwards as a nation! Diversity is beautiful and should be marveled! One part of our country understands that. The other is fueled with anger and hatred instilled from birth.
Half of the country is not purely hateful, that’s a horrible misconception that will further that isolating divide -but I should just let things be
Sorry
Never feel wrong for expressing your opinion or feelings. I agree we need to work on uniting everyone and that is what these protests are meant to do. I was born and raised in FL a conservative state and was one for the longest time. I am all for helping everyone unite. Thanks for your response.
I think it’s just a string of facts really, although it is an assessment of facts, I feel it is undeniably true. However, DEI as policy or department are two things and also it can be misused, although not enough to outlaw it for certain.
A Japanese qualified female doctor will replace RFK Jr., she will lethal inject that monster.
We need non-white officers and female officers back in the military. And those unqualified male whites will be executed by female firing squads of all colors.
YouTube Channels like Midnight's Edge (go look for yourself) had done an excellent job at convincing the public that the reason why Entertainment is crap is because DEI and ESG. Said YouTube Channels fearmonger that the DEI is a World Economic Forum product to ensure You'll Own Nothing and Be Happy
There are extremes and setting an aide quotient at 1/27th and people checking boxes on all the forms that are not very private or mandating unfunded services so other staff or services are cut (particularly in schools) set up the drive for choice and defunding public schools. It put the GOP in state
You diversify your portfolio. Farmers diversify their crop plantings. Its natural. All of one thing is never healthy or perpetual. They want to repeat history again where it already failed repeatedly.
who would have thought that removing the barriers that ensured that professional competent people (no matter their ethnicity, gender or love life) were able to rise to the right job was so important to the smooth running of society.
... or that elevating idiots to senior roles just because they were less capable angry white men who would normally be treated as such would have such a disastrous effect so quickly.
Just look at the incompetents ballsing things up. All elected or appointed by idiots because of the obesience.
Lickspittles all, all the way to the top.
More like the fig leaf hiding a more deeply racist country than we could have imagined. I know the algorithms inculcated and nursed this racism but they could not have turned so many people evil if they didn’t already have it in them.
No, it’s the only thing that works. Desegregation of the military, schools, and hospitals; equal rights in marriage; hate crime laws. Making immoral actions illegal changes behavior (but not thought, as Christian nationalists have shown us), unfortunately.
The ADA. The ACA. School lunches. DDA funding for kids with developmental disabilities. NIH research. A ton of nonprofit funding. 👩🎓 loans and Pell grants. Endowments for the Arts. Accessibility and history at national parks, monuments, and museums. Curb cuts + ♿️ parking.
DEI was never actually forced. No one was required to have pronouns in their email signature. If you wanted to openly be a racist asshole, no one was sending you to jail.
Human rights for everyone are a beautiful thing. So is recognizing the importance of paying people with a variety of different perspectives and experiences to keep things running smoothly for… people with a variety of different perspectives and experiences. I’m sorry you’re all going through this.
A lot of women don't have the money. What do women do if they don't have the money, become homeless to vote? Musk just sacked thousands of workers and closed a lot of offices. What do women do when there is literally no office to go to apply for their documents?.
Of course they are counting on this so folks don't vote. Thus the outrage and anger.
If folks can't take a shift off to go and vote because it means that they will become homeless. Then they are not going to have the money to get this documentation. Republicans never lost another election.

Where is anybody to say that so much of this is just plain wrong?
Well they have been fired for daring to challenge the grip of rich, white, men on this country.
That's it.

Trump removed the mask and pulled back the curtain, making many comfortable with removing their mask.
America's warm embrace of cognitive biases prevents the ability to grasp the concept of a "house divided."
Everyone who comes here ( and enjoys the country Already Built) will see that

Let them FIGURE it out

Diversity, Equality and Inclusion combines people's knowledge, wisdom & expertise. That is a massive amount of strength.
Removing that strength resulted in things falling apart.
I want off this time line.
OTP vp
Imagine wanting qualified people who aren't put into position because of being white men.
Lickspittles all, all the way to the top.
Whelp, let's get it back up.
(bonus, it seems to make assholes really mad?)
Everybody pull!!
I’m not sure what we are right now as it sure as hell isn’t America.
Yep!
Who fucking knew
But I got ultra specific to avoid people getting butt hurt
All (at least partly) DEI.
Openness
Kindness
Equality
Diversity
Equity
Inclusion
These all sound like important and wonderful things to me. 🤓

Thank you!!🙏
The "master race" sure sucks, doesn't it?
