What's noticeable, and telling, about That Fuckwit's attack on DEI is how hopeless the response to it is, how hard it is to find anyone saying anything more than "oh but lovely diversity!"

No wonder the goddam right is winning.

The point about DEI is that it's how you hire the best. It's not a charitable endeavour, it's a tool to stop your workplaces being dominated by mediocre people from the same background who know how to game the system.

But as far I can see, nobody is even making that argument. The worst thing about attacking DEI seems to be that it's vulgar. God it's bleak

@dalias @MikeMorris There are no such systems. Racist sexist bigotry always lies as convenient to attack. There is nothing that is somehow unvulnerable to a complete willingness to lie about everything constantly.
