Holding Up A Mirror to the Argument Against DEI

[Robert W]

Let's just get to the point here. Right-wingers are lying about what they want. Their claim is that they want equal opportunity for everyone. But the reality is they are advocating for white preferential treatment. If this were not the case, those in opposition would not be presenting this argument solely in discussions about people of color who are hired in high-level positions. They claim that DEI leads to hiring unqualified individuals from diverse backgrounds. What is never considered is the fact that unqualified whites exist.

That argument is extra mixed up. First are we lying? No we are not lying. Do we want equal opportunity. YES we do. We do not want equal outcomes and we mean putting unqualified into management positions. We support merit. If you have a university degree, I do not support me being a professor at the university when you hold the degree of a professor. I support students who merit higher levels get to apply for those levels. Color means nothing to me since we have no control over color. IF you are black as you claim, it is not your fault. Parents determine color not the children.

It helps them far, far, FAR less than it does Black Folk...

I know this for a fact after years of first-hand observation in a very, very large-scale Federal environment...

Because that is who it helps most... by an order of magnitude... therefore, it is right to keep the focus there...

Regardless of your opinion on the subject...

I am, indeed, a racist, insofar as I care more about my own race than I do others...

That is merely instinctive human behavior and is neither good nor bad in its own right...

However, I do not wish bad things for members of other races, and am perfectly willing to live in peace alongside them...

So long as my own rights and prerogatives are not encroached upon, I am content to live in that safe, comfortable peace...

But that has very little to do with the FACT that D.E.I. primarily helps Black Folks far more than any other group...

Sorry... you lose...

I don't lose. DEI helps White females the most.

I don't lose. DEI helps White females the most.

Do you actually believe that? What you signal is more discrimination against men.
