the United States military has routinely sent minority officer candidates to OCS with lower grades and PT scores than their white male counterparts.

My former unit's Wing Commander has as her unwritten policy the following,
For hiring and promotions
1 female
2 minority
3 best available if 1 and 2 aren't available.

She never commanded anything of size until she became a wing commander.

She stated we simply must atone for the sins of the past.

No it hasn't. No one has posted the language of the statute that says white men must be held to a higher standards than any other group.

Bull. Their qualifications have been questioned. Republicans Landry and Higgins have been painted as dunces, not fit for the job, many times on this board.

If you don't recognize that you can't have a real discussion about this, you're just looking to toss grenades.

You have refused to post anything other than a baseless opinion. You are simply unable to provide any evidence for your claim because it doesn't exist.

Your agenda is pretty obvious. You poor, persecuted white man.

I am certain. But it’s not because I don’t like what you say.

My statement was very plain…almost impossible to logically disagree with.

Hiring based on race is racism and sometimes DEI.

Hiring based on merit is never DEI and never racism.

Your pretense of this thread is BS . If a white man gets a job over any other demographics then the applicants are really bad as the system was set up for non whiteness to be a first hire. Companies actually stated that white men would not be considered.

As an employer of a few hundred personnel from all walks of life and backgrounds, this is, for lack of a better term, complete fricking bull shite.

DEI does not elevate anyone. If anything, it pushes people out of roles they’re a more qualified for and others into roles they’re not qualified for. Further, it forces less tax revenue into the system because I’m still not going to pay a DEI hire the same amount I would a qualified candidate.

If you want equality of opportunity, great! Remove race and identity based questions from applications. Employers want the best person for the job. They don’t give a shite what gender, race, or creed that person belongs to.

Please, educate me.

This is so common. Someone here makes a baseless claim and are asked expound on it. Then the person posts an insult or an emoji or just stops responding.


The civil rights act provides the entire foundation for granting protected status for minorities, sexual deviants, and women. It means that if a person in a protected class feels they have been wronged they can sue on that basis. This translates to private business, public institutions, etc.

You can’t be serious that you don’t know this.

It also provides the foundation to accelerate crimes into hate crimes that amplify punishments

I haven't seen anyone say that Landry isn't fit for his job. People say he sucks at it, but I think that's different than claiming he only got his job because he's a white man.

I don't follow threads about the other people.

Capt. Ross: No? Corporal Barnes, I'm a Marine. Is there no book, no manual or pamphlet, no set of orders or regulations that lets me know that, as a Marine, one of my duties is to perform code reds?

Cpl. Barnes: No, sir. No book, sir.

Capt. Ross: No further questions.

Kaffee: Corporal, would you turn to the page in this book that says where the mess hall is, please?

Cpl. Barnes: Well, Lt. Kaffee, that's not in the book, sir.

Kaffee: You mean to say in all your time at Gitmo, you've never had a meal?

Cpl. Barnes: No, sir. Three squares a day, sir.

Kaffee: I don't understand. How did you know where the mess hall was if it's not in this book?

Cpl. Barnes: Well, I guess I just followed the crowd at chow time, sir.

Kaffee: No more questions.

your troll is fricking terrible 0/10. You don’t want to have a discussion so don’t expect anything to but to be flamed bitch.

What a complete BS assertion. The entire point of what conservatives want is for hires to be judged by their qualifications regardless of race you racist POS. DEI hires are where qualifications are ignored and people are hired based on the melanin in their skin and not based on their merit. We are the cure, you are the disease.

The companies I worked for with DEI policies just meant employees had to sit through professional development around not being a racist a-hole.


We don't need DEI "training" for that. I work Industrial Construction and even among all the baws, folks know they can't be racist assholes if they want to stay working.

What is DEI? What you're describing does not align with my understanding of DEI. Can you define what DEI is?

If you're the employer, can't you determine what hiring practices you use? Why would you choose to hire someone based on race if they aren't qualified for the job?

Uh, the IVY League admissions scandal, the NYPD scandal, and more recently, the LAFD issues have been widely reported. Jesus, the Supreme Court banned race based college admissions requirements just 2 years ago. You are playing dumb.

I agree, but saying your workplace values diversity, equity and inclusion was trendy for a while and that was the easiest way to prove that it does.
