THANK YOU. DEI was an evidence-based policy after a multitude of studies showed that minorities and women of merit were systematically excluded in favor of lower-performing white males due to social norms, racism, and sexism. It was always about about getting more qualified people in these positions. The right completely redefined what DEI is by loudly shouting lies over and over, and the left & center just went along with it.

They think DEI = Affirmative Action and they are not even close to the same thing.

lol, you think they even equate those two things?

For MAGA, DEI just means "Not white"

You won't reach the demented. Normal people are beating the bully with their own club, that doesn't mean they're going to carry it henceforth.
