I heard the attack on DEI framed as resegregating America the other day.

Any time a non-white male non-conservative gets attention or a job, pearls are clutched and hysteric "DEI" accusations ensue. No one (on this board at least) questions the qualifications of any white men. Is the obsession with eradicating diversity, equity and inclusion really just an obsession with resegregating America?

When did we allow women to start threads?

That’s all we heard for decades that “whitey” got the job because he was white.

Flip it and folks gon’ go crazy for mentioning DEI.

I’m an IT guy and I see the qualifications of white male job candidates questioned all the time.

Edit: Nice to be downvoted for factual information. It means the real world doesn’t fit with the fiction in your head.

What? People are questioning qualifications all the time. All of the Trump cabinet members were heavily scrutinized even on this board, for example

The time to bask in your own glory has ended. Your party fumbled the peace offering and now you're getting your arse beat. Cry

No one questions white person getting the position because unlike the stupid liberal Dogma that states the opposite the truth is in 99.9% of the situations to beat the person of color the white person has to be 30% better.

As for resegregation honestly that's such a painfully illogical leap that it's impossible to even connect the dots of your thought from one point to the other so you're going to have to do better

And any time a white conservative male gets the job because they are vastly more qualified everyone shouts racism. So what's your point?

DEI was just Jim Crowe under a different name.

That wouldn't happen if DEI or affirmative action didn't exist.

In a merit based system the automatic assumption would be that they got the job because they are qualified.

before DEI, people blamed "affirmative action" any time a black person got a job.

This isn't a new phenomenon, it's just called something else now.

How about question everything. Then what they look like or who they are is of no consequence.

Your assumption is that because a company says it values diversity, equity and inclusion, only white male employees of that company have merit.

Because previously there were programs in place promoting folks for every reason other than their ability.
