Even before November, the once trendy concepts of DEI (Diversity, Equity and Inclusion) and ESG (Environmental, Social and Governance) were already sinking. Now the election of Donald Trump all but guarantees their accelerated decline.
The DEI push gained momentum during the 2020 George Floyd riots, after being nurtured for years on most college campuses. Many companies, including Walmart, adopted its associated practices. But new research from The Conference Board indicates that over half of executives anticipate continuing the pushback of DEI initiatives. Among the firms stepping back from DEI include Boeing, John Deere, Harley-Davidson, and Black & Decker, and the biggest of all, Walmart itself.
~Snip~
The demise of DEI and ESG marks a landmark shift away from a decade of incessant virtue-signalling. The debate should now focus not on some abstract notion of “justice” but on how to make life better for working people of all ages. We can expect hysteria from eco and social justice warriors about the imminent climate catastrophes or the return to Jim Crow, slavery and anti-miscegenation laws. Yet at least for the next four years, the promoters of both ESG and DEI will be on the defensive, as Americans continue to build – on their own – the world’s most prosperous, and dynamic, multi-racial society.

Commentary:
DEI has become a detriment to America and was forced upon us by Neo-Marxist Democrats as part of their "Fundamental Transformation of America".
Let’s not break out the champagne yet. These ticks, termites and roaches never give up. They might hide for a bit but they’ll be back. They require constant systematic fumigation.
No one watches or follows the legacy media except those few seniors who grew up glued to their TV. How many outside of liberal late-stage Boomers watch PBS? Yeah, pretty much nobody. Sure, you can go to a senior center and they’ll have the legacy media blaring at deafening levels in the common area, but other than that, it’s dead.
Biden used a wide brush inserting DEI appointees wherever he could. Obviously it hasn't worked out to well as we have seen.
It's certainly not dead in the federal government, which remains the largest employer in the country. And that's including the military, where DEI has had a real, negative impact on our ability to wage war and defend ourselves against attack.

A lot of wishful thinking on your part.

The reason why DEI got a boost in 2020 is because a lot of companies wanted to show they were down with the struggle after Geo. Floyd carked it.

So, um, they'll roll back a bit until the next horrible incident causes riots?

How did that work out for Budweiser, Target and now Jaguar, including others that tried ?

Wrong. You will learn this over the next 4 years.

DEI got a boost because companies were looking to cash in by pandering to the woke.

Now that it's costing them business, they're rolling it back.

List: Companies that have recently rolled back DEI policies​

This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to drive a stake through the heart of DEI... don't phukk it up...

It's going to cost them business when they stop DEI.

 

[Thinker101]

Wrong. You will learn this over the next 4 years.

Dang, you found someplace that'll give you a job?

 

[DukeU]

Wrong. You will learn this over the next 4 years.

The only thing that will be learned about DEI is that it doesn't work.

Unless of course your objective is to tear down the industries that implement the policy.

In my opinion that's what it has been about from the beginning, it's a "spread the wealth" policy pushed by the left/government.

Budweiser is a perfect example....Check out who the #1 beer brand in the world is now.

How Modelo Especial became America's No. 1 beer amid Bud …​

 

[JoeB131]

How did that work out for Budweiser, Target and now Jaguar, including others that tried ?

Last time I checked, they were all still in business.... so I would guess fine.

Cost them business from who? The average person doesn't support that nonsense.

 

[SeaMajor7]

Duped neo-Marxists from the 20th century forgot that they need mass-murder to get their way.
Sure, they followed the template of trying to normalize destabilization of society, which DEI is rooted from, but this election cycle clearly demonstrates that the American Electorate of all color, race, and creed are DONE with this FAILED ideology.
Marxism FAILED in Russia in 1991 after they infiltrated our edu, media, and governance throughout the 20th century,
Now, the American People have elected Trump to FINALLY KILL MARXISM once and for all.
For our country, and the WORLD!!!

[Bleipriester]

DEI is nothing but putting certain people first, fascism. I think the people realized that, after most of them experienced this one way or another.

Dammit carrion crow!
I agree with you once again.
Your Orange Nemesis is going to drive the stake.

Irony overload.

 

[daveman]

Not really. Y'all couldn't even boycott Chik-fil-A.

 

[daveman]

It's the ridiculous notion that people's genitals and/or skin color are more important than talent and ability.
