Spot on. DEI was the bare minimum and not sincerely held by corporations and arguably a fig leaf to avoid actually dealing with the structural violence of systems. But in ref to Star Trek, I do think the Trek team should make a strong public statement of the values it has. Trek was always woke!

I honestly don’t know why they frame it as if these companies are reluctantly giving up DEI- these companies are disinvesting in DEI because they don’t think the courts or the political system will punish them for discrimination anymore. DEI existed for most as a lawsuit barrier.
