Do MAGA not realize that cancelling DEI will greatly affect women’s careers?

Well said. Thank you.

When I was a fed many years ago, the leadership was majority women. Not in a female dominated field either. Not DEI and no thought of any law. They simply were better. That’s similar to my experience in the private sector at several different places.

It’s time to take off the training wheels, ladies.

Lols. “No thought of any law”? You don’t know of many laws had to be passed for women to be able to be there? You don’t know that it was pushed onto the corporate America in 90s that they should not promote only white males into management?

Are you a guy?

Okay, so are we going to have our eyes forward or behind?

Are we going to outcompete or not?

From what I see, we are outcompeting.

? This is like how Clarence Thomas is completely obtuse about how he got to where he's at now and DEI.

You are an idiot, just like Thomas.

Liar. DP

DEI in the Feds was never about quotas--Republicans made up this talking point

This!!! God damn some of you are such sheep. DEI was never about individual hiring or quotes. EVER.

+1000%

Same with the claims of "no more curb cuts!"

The main cheerleader for all this is Elon, a man who sex selected via in vitro for his first seven children to be AMAB. They know it will impact women and do not care.

Oh it’s totally targeted at Black people but nobody is will say it out loud.

DEI not targeting any white women, Asians. No impact there. Target is black and hispanic men and women

No, it will also impact white/Asian women in male dominated industries.

-50s Asian woman in high tech industry for the past 20 years

Asiana are behind this new wave anti-DEI movement. They have declared that we are in a post-racial society, race doesn't need to be discussed, and that they are a value-added to society due to their superior intelligence, work ethic, and family-orientedness, and that DEI prevents them from being the ruling class to their full potential.

Those Asians are a minority, and they probably have not lived here long enough to have experienced discriminatory policies against women because we've had protections for decades now. Trump admin's reversal of protecting women's rights will be felt by all women.

I was born here. I've seen my own parents go through discrimination at work. I also experienced it to some degree.

You are going on and on about women but my post was about race.

lol this has never been how any of this works. You really think that federal hiring consisted of a quota? How would that even work? Are the slots across the whole federal government or agency by agency? You can’t be this stupid.

but do you know how hard it was for women to get hired before DEI or promoted?

What??? I never had any issues.

I was born in 1960. When I was growing up, jobs were advertised under "men" and "women." My mom couldn't get her own credit card or bank account until I was a teenager. Discrimination against women for gender including pay inequity, housing (e.g. not renting or selling to women), firing women for pregnancy, not hiring women with children was completely legal.

In the 70s reforms happened, but it's not as if they happened, were complied with, or were enforced overnight.

In 1981, Kirchberg v. Feenstra, 450 U.S. 455, 459-60, overturned state laws designating a husband “head and master” with unilateral control of property owned jointly with his wife. I was a junior in college that year.

None of this was that long ago.

Most of us have had "issues."

Yes, I'm aware of this history. I would expect an older generation to have experienced issues. We are an evolving society. But I haven't had any issues with jobs or promotions.

FWIW, I've seen people move up with some kind of preference in play, I've seen people who thought they should move up stagnate, I've seen same race/same sex exclusive hiring so an entire division or office becomes a similar demographic.

MAGA men are mad at women for having children and also mad at women for not having children.

Lol, the post is not about federal hiring. The link in the OP is about hiring at Google.

That is totally true. That’s why white men shouldn’t be allowed to hire just other white men who they know and like and are less competent than others. Hegseth, Kavanaugh—the previous poster has got your number.

What the absolute F are you talking about? What quota or extra points?
That’s not DEI.
Damn the malicious ignorance of some people is really maddening.

Asian man here. DEI has never benefited us and now that its on its way out, good riddance. We were/are raised to ignore such things and focus on working your as$ off to be the best. Racism is part of life...just another bump on the road but not a stop sign. Hell, we experience racism from amongst our own and much worse than anything this nation puts out. No issues here
