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

Anonymous
Someone I know works in the defense field and shared a story with me about some of his colleagues and the bias against women in general in their industry. Does this mean they don't hire women, no, it just means they are prejudged whenever someone has to work with a woman on a project. There is one woman, fifty or so, who sits in rather top level meetings and knits while the conversation is evolving. The men hate it and look down on her because she does this during meetings. The person I know says she is the smartest person in that room and he kills to get her on any team he is working with, point being, those that look for the best, will not care about your gender. The others, who judge, will always just fall further behind. I've seen it happen naturally all too many times. Happy to see DEI disappear, but the damage, I fear, has already been done.

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


So maybe that Harvard should reject all Asian students it wants?

Racism is part of life. Too bad too sad.

Such hypocrisy…

You're so close to getting it!

Gender and race-blind applications are a form of DEI. The GOP has been pushing lies that DEI means racial quotas or hiring unqualified minorities over qualified white people, but it's simply not true. DEI literally means nondiscrimination.


DEI means everything is about race. Remember “equity”? We do.

I am a different woman ready to compete with any man in my field. There are only a handful of us and I’m by far the best.


The men in your field must be REALLY dumb. What do you do, exactly?


You consider yourself a feminist, right?


I do. And I consider women like the PP who are actively undermining 250 years of societal progress to be traitors to the cause, and utterly unworthy of respect.

Any more questions?

Lol. You can be the best all day long, honey, you just won’t get hired.

Young enough to have kids?
They won't touch you. They can get almost as good with a man slightly worse than you.

Past that age. Well, they don't want to look at you. He'd rather hire someone like himself. It would make for better workplace atmosphere.

-Asian who has been here many decades and seen the struggles my mother went through. Sorry the new guys aren't interested in American history because they are so "exceptional."

Women are actually supposed to stay home to take care of their 3-6 children, while men are supposed to go physically into the office to work 10-14 hour days. Of course, women* will be permitted to sell jewelry they design or sell cakes they bake and decorate for birthday parties and straight weddings or tutor little kids in math (up to algebra) or something.

Won't it be nice? A return to the good old times!!

*This is only white women. Black and brown women and single women can remain in service professions.


Good point on the other races.


Excellent point. You should see the amount of shock and surprise Black and brown women get when they are SHAMs and living in MC/UMC neighborhoods or in private schools.

It’s all just seems like cultural panic. Young women are slightly over taking men in college, including Medical School and Law School. The birth rate, specifically with White women is low. It’s quite more than just some poorly thought out HR and university policies. Vance’s “childless cat ladies” comment and “I want more babies in America”. Elon Musk gender selected several of his children to be male and has connections to the Afd in Germany which is anti multiculturalism as was as Russ Vought, the project 2025 guy who is working with Trump. Trump blaming a plane crash on “DEI” before there was even an investigation. It all goes together.

I’d gladly give up working to be a stay at home mom. I just can’t afford to at the moment. I hate working while my kids sit at daycare.

You are the traitor. You don’t want equality at all. What leftists want is the farthest thing from “progress.” It makes the most important things about people their gender and skin color. It’s regressive to an extreme.

You don’t understand anything. It’s sad that you’re so wrapped in political anger you don’t even know what you’re mad about.

+1 same with getting rid of telework flexibility etc - makes it harder for 2 career families to juggle and it will often be women who exit.

NP. It literally does NOT mean that. It means focusing on and emphasizing race and gender above all else. Which is ridiculous. It absolutely doesn’t mean race-blind. That’s a bad word now, remember? And Harvard is mad that they are being forced to go race-blind in applications? Race-blind (& gender-blind) should be society’s ultimate goal, but DEI hurts that goal, along with racists.

Yes, you would have been the token in the past.

This is not what it means.
