I seem to recall Trump wanting to end the divisiveness of inclusiveness and somehow people just accepted him saying that
oh snap! I know this doesn't really contribute to the conversation but.. I know Jive! he's a real good dude. went to school with my older brothers. love to see him still spreading positivity. big ups, daft purk!
I'm not sure how that would stop anyone tbh
They would unironically say those out loud if they didn’t think people would judge them, maybe not in so many words though.
If you’re lucky enough to grow up in a heavily conservative family that has a 4th of July weeklong party with all of the extended family parking their RVs and tents on the lawn, then you would also know this as a fact
I oppose affirmative action. Change my mind (if you disagree and want to)

I think qualified people should be hired. May the best person for the job be hired, without even considering race, or anything other than skill. DEI is veiled discrimination.

I mostly like DEI. But I'm concerned that it is running cover for corporations. DEI is not about expanding opportunities to people evenly. DEI is about expanding opportunities to people that make the company more money. DEI alone is not enough for a fair and equitable society.

This is a stupid take, equally as stupid as saying "I'm not pro BLM because I believe that all lives matter" (for the same reason)
I hate it empowering the face eating of itself: Or once again fascists benefiting from DEI to.....abolish DEI.
Can we do anything with:
Like we report Let's Encrypt+ISRG for being DEI!! Would their certs expire then? 😣
Are their Re-captchas having a cert issue?

Counterpoint: the phrase first proposed by Serj Tankian, an armenian biblical scholar, reading 'When Angels deserve to DEI', implies that even the God's very servants strive to have DEI programs used in their hiring and career proposals.
Why are you snorting blood my friend, did I say something wrong?
I don't believe in "Equity", I believe in "Equality". The difference is that with Equality, everyone gets the same opportunities. They don't just get opportunities because of their skin color, despite lack of qualifications.
I oppose the existing "DEI" as it exists today because it's openly racist. It's openly racist to the people it basically purports to help.
Here you go bud, hope it helps.
How about they just pay for seats? The stands clearly are accommodating for everyone. And it isn't 'equity' either.
This graphic has been used for too long because of its emotional aspect. Equality is them buying seats and watching the game without boxes at all. In itself, it's a fallacy because they clearly have accommodations for all of them, and they've decided to stand behind a fence.
And, since WHEN do skin colors need special accommodations ANYWAYS?
Dividing people by skin color is the first way the corporate elite divide our nation - so that we fight amongst ourselves against the real discrimination, class-based discrimination.
How about they just pay for seats?
This misses the point. It could be a baseball stadium, a tree with apples, etc. It doesn't fucking matter what the goal is or how accommodating the stadium is due to the whim of artist filling the seats with blotches of color. None of that is the point.
The only explicitly shown resources available for the characters is 3 boxes. That's it. And the correct utilization of those 3 boxes is 0 for the blue shirt, 1 for the red shirt, and two for the purple shirt. Any other utilization is a failure for the goal of everyone seeing the game.

And despite that it's meaning is still lost on you.
because of its emotional aspect.
What emotional aspect?
Equality is them buying seats and watching the game without boxes at all.
No, equality is giving everyone equal resources and pretending that there aren't earlier prerequisites that aren't equal, with an end result of not everyone getting an equal end result. Equality is materially worse than equity, and leaves society worse off. You've fundamentally missed the point.
they clearly have accommodations for all of them, and they’ve decided to stand behind a fence.
Now you're just making shit up. There is no story telling you that. It's a cartoon depicting the allocation of resources and its effects.
And, since WHEN do skin colors need special accommodations ANYWAYS?
This is a strawman.

I hate inclusive.
I'll never be in the MAGA(neo-Nazis) group.
