And your point is?

Who cares about the opinions of Joe Rogan and some firefighter. There will always be individual cases where something is wrong.
Nepotism is all around us, but that does not negate the fact that the true purpose of DEI is to give minorities who are in fact qualified for a particular job a fair chance.

Don't shoot the messenger, listen to what she says, it's sick!

There will always be individual cases where something is wrong.

It's more than isolated individual cases, you clearly don't understand.

Geez, you have fallen hook line and sinker for this leftist BS! How often in the real World are two applicants "equally qualified", that is completely stupid and you fell for it, explains a lot actually!
But let's just say that in magic fairyland that two applicants are "equally qualified" then according to DEI principles, the minority applicant automatically wins, how is that fair?

You clearly have not a shred of knowledge about hiring people.

"automatically wins"? Who said that?

DEI is about preventing nepotism, racism and discrimination based on ethnic backgrounds.

But perhaps that's exactly the reason why you are against DEI....

Why am I not surprised that you ignored the last sentence in my post;

I'm tired of your arguments for argument's sake.

These people have been radicalized by a decade of endless leftist propaganda.  It boils down to this.  Anything that Trump does is evil.  Anyone who does not condemn him is a Nazi.  Logic, common sense, or facts cannot dissuade them of this fantasy.  Many - like Martin from "Europe" - appear to hate America and prefer to put the interests of illegal immigrants and foreign countries over those of America because Trump does the opposite.  The level of hatred and violence by the left is frightening.  Many are completely obsessed with Trump and Musk.  They are assaulting people for having contrary views, vandalizing cars, and throwing Molotov cocktails.  College professors are attacking their own students for exercising free speech in support of Republicans.   These radicalized leftists support violent anti-American and anti-Semite terrorist organizations like Hamas whose operatives threaten Jewish students on American campuses.   Domestic terrorism.  It's sick.

The fact that I was experienced enough to make that statement clearly went over your head.

"automatically wins"? Who said that?

Seriously?

DEI is about preventing nepotism, racism and discrimination based on ethnic backgrounds.

Thanks for the copy and paste that reinforces my point, the "minority applicant" automatically wins.

But perhaps that's exactly the reason why you are against DEI....

Huh? Like I said in my first post, I want the best applicant regardless of colour, ethnicity or gender!

   You guys in the ever diminishing DEI Camp need to be reminded that YOU are in the Minority. Just like the POTUS Election. You cavalierly label the Majority as being inna "cult", but in reality YOU are the member of a Cult that continues getting smaller and smaller. This is what happens when you confine yourself inside the Echo Chamber. Even Bill Maher has exited that Echo Chamber. And he's gone so far as to have a "sit-down" with Trump. Your "cult" shrinks daily. And the juvenile profane tantrums only accelerate this mass migration.

Just keep telling yourself this BS... Perhaps, one day, you will actually believe it.

No it isn't. Its stupid, plain and simple.

Anybody who believes that crashing the stock market, increasing inflation prices, alienating most of the countries in the world, insulting foreign leaders and threatening Canada, Greenland/Denmark and Panama, destroying people's future by illegal mass firings and reducing their 401k entitlement, and arresting innocent American citizens and shipping them to El Salvador is a good thing needs his head examined. Shall I make an appointment for you?

Over half a million people at 1200 locations in 50 states have attended mass demonstrations against Trump and Musk. I wonder why.....
