Nice overview from @gabydvj.bsky.social about what all the anti-DEI stuff is really about. It's not only a dogwhistle for anyone who isn't a straight white Christian man — the anti-DEI crowd wants to undo the Civil Rights Movement. They want to codify eugenics. www.theverge.com/politics/613...

The instinct of good people searching for silver linings to this administration and performing “business as usual” feels like a complete betrayal of all things decent in this moment. This admin is NOT normal and any benefits that some may gain are no where near worth the costs to society at large.
