[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][b]Not sure why merit and diversity are mutually exclusive. [/b]They can coexist and they have for a real long time now. What say you in these cases OP? Do you not hire a unicorn so you can form the biggest and the best good ol’ boys club known to man?[/quote]

Bingo.

OP is a racist, sexist POS.

Do you lack logical reasoning?  Of course they are not mutually exclusive. But if you are suggesting there is complete overlap between the two, then there is no need to hire on the basis of BOTH merit AND diversity. Hiring on the basis of merit should be enough.  If there is not perfect overlap between the two (ie the real world), and you recruit under both banners, then by definition you will hire some people [b]without merit[/b].  If you disagree with that premise (ie you think there is no world where recruiting for diversity results in non-merit hires), then you should logically be fine with hiring solely on merit. [/quote]

As if it’s binary.  :roll:
