Nobody is calling anybody racist. However, everyone that is racist is definitely anti-DEBI for a lot is the same reasons people are throwing out here.

If you’re actually being called a racist it’s probably for a valid reason…


That's just what the grifters tell themselves to keep the grift going. Seems like some people will need some job training soon once the funding for this garbage dries up. A lot of DEI officers have already lost their jobs. The writing is on the wall.

NP. I think Latinx is on the way out because academics are finally realizing they're the only ones to use it. Most Latinos/Latinas have never heard the term or don't care.

DEITY save me


PP above keeps writing "DEBI." I can't tell if it's a typo or one of those "blink and you missed it" changes in "correct" language.

I didn't really agree with being told at my last workplace DEI training - in a school- that it's "not enough" to not be racist, one MUST be anti racist for approval from the DEI crowd. Where does this end? Probably not well in some way or other. Right now, it seems a lot of people are simply losing interest?

What I have an issue with is adding letters to an inclusivity acronym to be…ever more inclusive (c.f, LBGT, etc.).

I knew it was out of a control when one of my kids teachers assigned the history class a partial rewrite of the Declaration of Independence to “make it more inclusive”
, you know, bcs “all men are created equal” is not inclusive. You can’t make this stuff up it’s so ridiculous.

Well your friends might benefit from a DEIB session to understand why that is patriarchal and oppressive!


Not my lane.


Yeah, let’s scrap that DEIB session. And also the rest of them.

Funny that you only included “no evidence” for number 8


There isn't. The only people forcing anything are the anti-DEIB crowd mentioning it every single chance the can. Most of the threads on here prove that.


Weird take!
