DEI—-can we all agree

In my opinion, lecturing and forcing people to watch videos or take classes or read literature about accepting other people for their differences actually makes people NOT want to accept other people for their differences.
Problem is that it doesn't seem like the number of these morons is all that small.
Well, anecdotally speaking, I had an accountant friend who worked for Mobil (before the Exxon merger) whose sole reason for being on staff was to clean up the messes made by DEI (then “affirmative action”) hires in their various accounting departments. I’m sure Mobil was not alone in this regard.
Yeah, this sounds made up.
True, but through DEI training maybe they learn that certain behaviors will not be tolerated in their workplace. DEI training will probably not change many hearts or minds, however it might make individuals aware that certain behaviors or comments are offensive and engaging in them may result in being terminated from their job.
Cool anecdote that has zero to do with the question I asked below. Feel free to take another crack at it.
"So many people assume that the person hired for a job isn’t qualified unless they’re a white male. Why is that?"
If you think racism and discrimination aren't alive and well in 2025 then, respectfully, you're an idiot.
DEI is overcompensation in alot of cases (quotas, etc), but it's a reaction to something real.

I don't care if you accept me. I simply don't want to be denied employment or have to listen to f@ggot comments while I'm at work. You can hate my ass as much as you want on your own time.
“Sticking his dick in another guys asshole” and sticking a drill bit into the earth to pull out its “essence”…There is kind of a symmetry to this symbolism right? I think there is a place for DEI in tge business of Big Oil , based on that.
From my post #64:
“Drilling” jokes aside, I don’t see what sodomy has to do with actually converting minerals into an energy source.”
I’m still not completely sure what this board means by “Pepsi”, but I think you may have posted one.
The right might be more persuasive if they didn't refer to absolutely every black person occupying a professional role as a "DEI hire."
No, you need to have proof you took the training class so that when the company is sued they can say look, we did our part, that guys just an asshole, go after him.
Assuming equal qualifications, agree 100%. I assume that is what you are getting at.
I think with my white name and if I post the year that I got my degree(old) that my chances of getting a call back are affected more than 12%
Guessing that her resume of a year and a half at each job? Maybe she is just consistently a fast learner.
I guess the little DEI hire was correct, demand definitely outweighed supply!! 🤡 🤣 >

That was the study. It was actually better than 80-20 which was my mistake. Equal resumes with different names were sent to companies and traditional white names got more call backs than someone named Lamar or LaShonda. Proving that there is still inherent racism in the way companies hire.

Meta ends corporate DEI programs
Meta announced that it's ending its diversity, equity and inclusion (DEI) programs effective immediately in the wake of court rulings casting doubt on corporate DEI policies.
Meta walks away from DEI as well. The energy has shifted in an unbelievable way.

No, we can't all agree DEI is good. The U.S. is a meritocracy and always should be. Diversity is good if it occurs organically, it it occurs any other way it is racism.
As a side note, no government tax payer funded employee should be making $750,000.00 per year.
