I hate that so many conservatives have been brainwashed to believe DEI is the reason why their life sucks. Trump has been playing yall for the past 10 years

Nobody has been “brainwashed” into shit. It’s plain as day that choosing lesser qualified applicants for positions just because of their race is ridiculous and wrong. It infantilizes minorities and creates that suspicion among others, which actively cultivates ridicule and actual racism.

Yeah so you just proved you have been brainwashed. DEI initiatives have never awarded people a job simply because of their skin color.

Yeah so you aren’t capable of having adult conversations. DEI initiatives HAVE done so, and it is the basis of their function. I GET that the IDEA is to provide more opportunities to minorities (a good idea), but in practice they always end up being restrictive (enforcing minimums ) that when not able to be met, require the lowering of requirements. At ANY rate, hiring on the basis of race in ANY situation will ALWAYS be wrong

The reason why this point doesn’t make sense is because different DEI initiatives and Affirmative Action have been around for decades and we still see that the majority of people in any given field or at any given university is White people. Im not saying thats good or bad thats just a fact. I think its insulting to think that people who have benefited from these different initiatives (Veterans, women, older people, disabled, race, or rural) only made it due to a standard being lowered.
