Media Buries Study That Finds DEI Harmful
To the surprise of only the most clueless, DEI ideology has been found to hurt everyone, including the identity groups it ostensibly helps at the expense of the rest of us. Still less surprising, the media has attempted to suppress this information.The Blaze reports:
From the study:A study published Monday by the Network Contagion Research Institute and Rutgers University provided strong justification for why Americans should dismantle the remainder of the DEI regime sooner rather than later, noting that race-obsessed programming is divisive, counterproductive, and helps create authoritarians.
That is not a bug but the main feature of DEI. Cultural Marxism rests upon the increasingly obvious lie that favored groups are oppressed by bigotry. To prop up their failed ideology, liberals must create resentment.“DEI initiatives seen as affirmative action rather than business strategy can provoke backlash, increasing rather than reducing racial resentment. And diversity initiatives aimed at managing bias can fail, sometimes resulting in decreased representation and triggering negativity among employees.”
The broader goal of DEI and Cultural Marxism in general is to provide a framework for left-wing totalitarianism:
No monoculture was ever more ideological and vindictive than that of woke liberals.“[A]n emerging body of research warns that [DEI] interventions may foster authoritarian mindsets, particularly when anti-oppressive narratives exist within an ideological and vindictive monoculture,” said the study. “The push toward absolute equity can undermine pluralism and engender a (potentially violent) aspiration of ideological purity.”
Speaking of the monoculture of woke liberals, the media establishment reacted to the study by refusing to acknowledge it:The paper concluded, “The evidence presented in these studies reveals that while purporting to combat bias, some anti-oppressive DEI narratives can engender a hostile attribution bias and heighten racial suspicion, prejudicial attitudes, authoritarian policing, and support for punitive behaviors in the absence of evidence for a transgression deserving punishment.”
According to an NCRI researcher, the story was killed “at the highest editorial levels.”It appears that mainstream media outlets such as Bloomberg and The New York Times were poised to report on these findings but opted to remain silent on the harms caused by DEI.
Moonbattery is a house of cards. The media’s job is to protect it from the slightest breeze of common sense, which might bring it crashing down.
