Is Neuralink the Mark of the Beast? 😅

Framing matters. Stop saying racially charged when you mean racist. Stop letting DEI operate as a pejorative catch-all. Refer to the group(s) being targeted. Stop contrasting DEI with merit as if they are mutually exclusive rather than intertwined. DEI exists due to the past ABSENCE of merit.
