This is so true. And black men will not be subjected to completing with white women for jobs. Try to get a black man to hire you in any field as a white women and then tell us how that goes. I did as a teacher and I was told my qualifications didn’t matter…by a black man. I’m sure I wasn’t the only one. DEI is and always was about reducing competition in the labor market. |
DEI programs have nothing to do with inclusion, diversity or equity. They are deliberately designed to exclude people that are not members of the woke left's preferred minority groups, instill guilt and shame in non-members and provide a rationale for asset seizures from non-members to right contrived grievances.
People confuse DEI with equality. DEI initiatives don't want equality and equal opportunitiesbut rather equity, which means equal outcomes no matter the input. It is a social engineering program that has nothing to do with equality. It may come as a shock to people, but individuals are different. Individuals have different experiences and aptitudes...there will be candidates who are better than others. DEI doesn't care about any of that though and thinks we should all have equal outcomes in the end. It is just communism wrapped up in package under a different name. No one is fooled. |
YES! |
How do you explain why so many mediocre men have been promoted to the top over more qualified and experienced women? |
You are conflating equal opportunities with equity. The latter is what DEI wants, not the former. No one is debating they women deserve their fair shake at equal opportunity. DEI wants equitable outcomes for women who do the same job as men. On paper that sounds good, but in practice this means hiring or promoting women who are grossly unqualified into positions because we need to fast track equitable outcomes. That's not equality. It is social engineering and communism. Maybe back in the 1980s men could skate by. But in the modern world the tables are now reversed and there are so many unqualified to mid women who get hired for jobs or promoted into leadership positions just so the corporate world can show they're meeting a quota. |
Dunno. Turnabout is fair play. Did you ever complain or speak out in the past about the undeserving men who were promoted above deserving candidates? Why not? If not then take a chill pill. I am not going to cry over this given how often and even in recent times I’ve seen the reverse happen. |
The thing that baffles me is why do these quotas exist? It’s not like there’s a world DEI police. And DEI is fairly unpopular with a wide section of the population so seems odd to embrace it for PR reasons |
That's the real reason the DEI exists. It's much easier to have equity among entry and midlevel employees than for men sitting in C suites to give up their own jobs. Even better if they can put hire chief equity officer to make upper management more diverse without anyone actually having to step aside |
Because corporate and government customers have DEI quotas for vendors |
Gee, maybe I wasn't even alive back then. Yes, let's run the whole world on children being forced to receive retribution for the sins of their fathers. Maybe all those modern day Germans should be sent to jail too because their grandfathers were Nazis. Or maybe all of those modern day Japanese citizens should follow a similar path because their grandfathers slaughter millions across Asian during WW2. At least you're honest about your true intentions - you flat out admit this isn't about equal opportunities. You want retribution and payback. Nothing like correcting a previous wrong by doing more wrong. Thanks for exposing what DEI really is! |
Probably one reason why it's starting to fizzle out in the workplace. It's divisive, ineffective, and bad for business. |
That pretty much sums of the state of DEI. It's not about DEI, it's about revenge. It's no wonder there's such backlash from BOTH sides of the political spectrum. |
Truly - I think it is an effort to cause more division. Private businesses jumped on board because if they didn't, they would have been labeled as racist. Funny thing is that DEI itself is racist. |
Give us a break. What are you, 3 years old? I’ve seen unqualified men advance above qualified women in the past 5 years. It’s not something that stopped 30, 20, or even 10 years ago. In the past they didn’t call it anything. They just pretended it didn’t exist for men. But guess what, it still does. |
It’s about getting us o ground zero if you want. Unless you spoke up about the unfair advantages men had and continue to have in many fields it’s kind of baffling why you suddenly care if women seem to have them. |
