The era of DEI is now over, so it's time to clean out the garbage employees who shouldn't be there anyway.

"The era of DEI is now over..." No it isn't, you Nazi cocksucker. Diversity, equity, and inclusion remain values of every decent human being, everywhere.

DEI is just an excuse to hire unqualified people. Nothing more.

No, moron. Only connected rich kids get hired when unqualified. DEI just provides a framework for the subjective factors that distinguish among qualified candidates, because usually that unfairly discriminates against certain groups.

No. Just no. Simply being DEI “qualified” isn’t nearly enough of a criteria to mean someone is the best fit for a task - there’s a very wide range between barely qualified and excellent.
For example, UCLA Medical school’s ranking has notoriously dropped from 6 to 18 after instituting a DEI admissions policy, and the rate of its students failing medical shelf exams has increased ten fold.
Do you really want to subject your loved ones’ health to such “qualified”

And now the goalposts move, what a shock. First the racist piece of shit claims "unqualified" people are being hired because he doesn't like their skin color, now it's "barely qualified". Moving right along the checklist of racist-piece-of-shit fake debate tactics, aren't we?
Let's just keep it real: If you were straight up handed a position by your billionaire father out of high school / drug rehab, you would insist the black guy

You’re the one assuming that the level of qualification is necessarily tied to race and blood purity, not I, and you’re assuming that focusing on the level of qualification is necessarily “moving the goalposts”. You’re questioning the capabilities of the very same people that you’re supposedly championing.

I literally said that DEI is about counteracting subjective biases. Only white supremacists who benefit from their own bigotry insist that that harms meritocracy.

You deliberately “forgot” to discuss DEI’s entire set of foolish tenets. DEI is about counteracting subjective biases, yes, but so what? It also stupidly argues for jettisoning long proven humane libertarian western ideals.
DEI is so easily shown to be bonkers to the more informed among us, that it uses baseless accusations of racism to deliberately keep its adherents corralled in by fear - exactly like you just did. It’s a far left cult philosophy based on CRT, which simply substitut

Equality of opportunity is a libertarian western ideal, and you can't have it if certain minority groups are kneecapped at the starting line by the imbecilic biases of institutions.
What kind of person considers it "meritocratic" that people with particular ethnic names on a job application have a hugely lower chance of being called for an interview, regardless of the contents of their resume? No need to answer, we a

You’re exactly echoing Critical Theory, so your self-admitted lack of familiarity with its extremely strong ties to DEI simply indicates the profoundly weak foundation of your arguments. This is typical of most DEI supporters. Similar CT adherents are commonly known as “useful idiots” by both CT’s proponents and its detractors.
Your example of bias does absolutely nothing to prove DEI’s worth in detecting bigotry or solving it. Nor does it abrogate DEI’s consistently self

You haven't said a single rational statement in defense of your position, just desperately tried to distract from your self-evident racism. I've given you multiple opportunities to justify yourself, all of which you've ignored and evaded. You are clearly aware that you are wrong, but so committed to malevolence that you will speak lies until the fucking end of time.
byWheres the kaboom ( 10344974 ) writes:
Huh? Libertarianism is fundamentally rational and the exact opposite of DEI’s “equity”. Your “equity” is not even close to rational. Libertarianism has lifted billions out of poverty, eliminated starvation, and eliminated slavery. Every single society that jettisons blind justice, free speech, and equality of opportunity in favor of DEI’s “equity”? They’ve been horrific disasters. Every. Single. One. Witness Mao, Stalin, Lenin, Pol Pot, Castro, Mozambiqu

Okay, you're clearly not interested in discussing anything, just reciting your little religion's articles of faith. But I'll make one last try and make this as simple as possible:
* There are no quotas. That's not a thing in DEI policies of HR.
* Nobody unqualified is hired under DEI policies of HR. It seeks simply to correct biases in subjective evaluations. Biases that are themselves objectively proven. If you deny those biases, you are a lying, racist piece of shit who will say and believe anything to make yourself feel better at other people's expense.
* You (and I) are a privileged person. If your response to hearing this fact is to form conspiracy theories that denigrate the accomplishments of everyone unlike you, then you are a lying, racist piece of shit who will say and believe anything to make yourself feel better at other people's expense.
The level of Nazi fucktardery required to claim that equity is not a universal value staggers the mind of any human. You have effectively admitted that you want to lord over other people and deny them the very opportunities you demand for yourself. Which means you never deserved them in the first place.
