I mostly like DEI. But I'm concerned that it is running cover for corporations. DEI is not about expanding opportunities to people evenly. DEI is about expanding opportunities to people that make the company more money. DEI alone is not enough for a fair and equitable society.

I oppose affirmative action. Change my mind (if you disagree and want to)

This isn't hard... I don't like DEI.

But also, I do like diversity, equity, and inclusion.

There is a difference. Understand that, and you've leveled up.

I don't like DEI cause I think human rights, equality and equal opportunity should come default nowardays, rather than be a thing people need to rally behind and hope it gets passed as law in a few decades.

If an demented felon child diddler trans woman and an african nazi with mental defeciencies can run a country, why can't a trans black woman write some code?

Counterpoint: the phrase first proposed by Serj Tankian, an armenian biblical scholar, reading 'When Angels deserve to DEI', implies that even the God's very servants strive to have DEI programs used in their hiring and career proposals.

Why are you snorting blood my friend, did I say something wrong?

I hate it empowering the face eating of itself: Or once again fascists benefiting from DEI to.....abolish DEI.

Can we do anything with:

Like we report Let's Encrypt+ISRG for being DEI!! Would their certs expire then? 😣

Are  their Re-captchas having a cert issue?

This is a stupid take, equally as stupid as saying "I'm not pro BLM because I believe that all lives matter" (for the same reason)
