[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Affirmative action initiatives more often help less qualified candidates beat out more qualified candidates.   That’s just how it is, whether we want to admit it or not. [/quote]

Got data for that? Because what the data does show is that two resumes with the exact same qualifications, experience, and education and the person with the name that is not clearly white is less likely to get selected. Similarly, women are less likely to get selected for executive roles with the exact same qualifications, experience, and expertise as men.

So again, tell me about “merit” and why affirmative action isn’t needed. Provide that data, please.[/quote]

There is NO credible data or research to support the repeated MAGA claim that DEI or affirmative action systematically results in unqualified individuals being chosen over more qualified candidates. Instead, these policies aim to address historical inequities and ensure fair opportunities for underrepresented groups.  And in fact the benefits of DEI and affirmative action have been found to outweigh the criticisms, which are far more based on perception than reality.

For example, studies have shown that diverse teams often perform better and that DEI initiatives can lead to more equitable hiring practices.

Leftist gaslighting is embarrassing.  It’s a moot point, since these programs are all being ripped out of American hiring and promotion decisions.  But still, the lack of honesty about these programs is telling.  Leftists are dishonest.[/quote]
