[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]16 pages in and there's still no meaningful response to the OP about what's changed and is no longer "holding anyone back" professionally now that "woke" and "DEI" are gone.

I'd say that's a fail for the right wing, no matter how much they flail about some random company's ad campaigns or whatever else.

Note also that no Democrat ever mandated ad campaigns featuring acne or ostomy or whatever else.  That was entirely a private sector decision.[/quote]

+1 I haven’t seen any concrete examples either[/quote]

We have repeatedly told you. We don't like your brand of Klu Klux Communism and are happy to see it diminished. We are getting what we want, and all you're telling us is that you don't understand what we want. [/quote]

We asked specifically for examples of how you are no longer being held back from success.  You still haven't given any.  Babbling nonsensically about "Klu Klux Communism"  isn't responsive to that question.  It's a deflection.[/quote]

Sorry that we aren't fitting into your faulty framing of the issue. I've never been held back.  I'm not a victim, and I completely reject your oppressor/oppressed framing. As I've said before in this thread, you're not going to get the answer you're looking for because the right simply doesn't see the world the way you see it.

For us, seeing Beyonce wearing Levi's and hanging out in a 1950s dinner is #winning. We don't need to get promoted or whatever to enjoy the demise of DEI. Happiness is all around us, and we are enjoying it. [/quote]

So after all of the pages of flailing you’ve now finally admitted outright that you were never “held back” by DEI, which was the original question that OP . That means the entire grievance narrative pushed by MAGA media, that white men were losing jobs, promotions, or opportunities to “unqualified” women and minorities was nothing but a manufactured victimhood lie from the right wing.  Your own side's "oppressor/oppressed" framing and rationale for getting rid of DEI was built on a lie, and you've exposed that lie.

If your idea of “winning” is just watching Beyoncé in a Levi’s ad while nothing in your own life has changed, then you’ve proved the OP’s point: DEI wasn’t holding you back, and its rollback hasn’t lifted you up. The only thing that’s actually been exposed here is how hollow the right’s supposed “oppression” and grievance about DEI really was.[/quote]
