Yes, any servant of capital is highly disposable - especially working in the MIC.
DEI is bad! Treat everyone based on their merits! Remove the bio pages for anyone not white and male!
… ?
The current admin cabinet hires are completely based on DEI. What other companies would hire such a diverse cadre of alcoholics, rapists, and idiots, while most companies tend to hire on merit.
I like to think these ones self select.
I think the justification for things like this is that they don’t feel like they got there on their merits in the first place
While all this is going on, I’d also like to point out that grants are being flagged for being “woke” by this anti-DEI nonsense. Grants that have to do with cancer, physics, eclipses, and so on.
DEI is just a dogwhistle.
The 1950s boom was built on two things. Subsidizing a middle class instead of corporate (awesome). And the notion that a mediocre white male was more valuable in any job role than a woman or a non-white male.
The 1950s was, in part, built on the backs of women sent home from jobs after the war to have those jobs taken by folks who may or may not have been less qualified, as it was based entirely on gender, and to lesser extent, color.
Woman’s minds were squandered. I encourage you to ask about grandma back in the day. How mean was she? How mentally I’ll was she? How many suicides or addictions occurred? The mean stories abound at this time for a reason. Alternatively there’s the paper thin personality-less woman who avoids anything even remotely confrontational.
Ask your family.
Equality before the law is introduced and a subset of men who don’t have coping skills for not having power over other human beings, lack capacity to stand as an individual, lose their collective shit.
Three things, don’t forget that American companies got a lot of European contracts to help rebuild after WWII. There’s too many people out there that ignore that influx of money and try to say the economic boom of the 50s was because misogyny and racism worked.
Good point, saying the quiet part out loud. There will always be That Guy from the low coping skills set who will try to make that argument.
Never Compromise With Fascists
You should feel like erasing the people that tried to erase you.
I prefer them in the light of justice rather than scurrying around with the darkness.
Like Riddler “bring him into the light”?
Unless the darkness is a really deep pit in some cave and their legs are broken.
We tried that.
Justice in the united states? where? how?
Nah.
I’d rather they see that we have a common enemy in the fascists and extend a hand of solidarity before I run out of the means to survive in a few weeks.
It happened to me in October 2018 and again in April 2024. Erasure by DEI programs and of the people supported by them kills a part of you.
You never really know how to feel. You just get increasingly dead inside.
At least I have two weeks of food left.
Now I’m confused, what does DEI stand for? I thought it meant Diversity, Equity and Inclusion.
That’s what it claims to mean, but that’s frankly not how it was implemented.
Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion are fabulous ideals that result in better science that improves the lives of more people. If properly implemented, they create a better workplace ecosystem that better serves its employees and our nation/planet/community.
I wish that DEI programs didn’t stand for Demonization, Exclusion, and Inequity.
I’ve been reading the whole thread and it looks like you’re blaming an entire program for the bad experience you had with a particular group of people.
A particular group of people… who ran the program and used it as a tool of oppression.
Because of this, I think that it’s valid that I direct my criticisms towards the program. Would you rather I start rattling off names? Or should I focus on the structural inequities that enabled and rewarded these bad actors?
I suspect that these overreaches of power contributed to the rampant public animosity towards these programs and enabled fascism.
I hope that someone learns from my criticisms so that we can prevent what happened last year from happening again.
Because of this, I think that it’s valid that I direct my criticisms towards the program
That is exactly the incel mentality. These people did me wrong so I will blame the entirety of what, in my eyes, they represent.
No, it’s not incel mentality.
It’s the mentality of addressing structural issues and inequities instead of symptomatic bad actors.
It’s the mentality of trying to fix broken systems that wronged me.
Inequality is structural and needs to be addressed structurally if we want to solve it.
Blaming people and trying to get revenge by punishing them is the mentality that created the problematic structures that I’m trying to address.
Can you give me a few solid examples or some slides that they shared for your specific DEI program? I’ve done two and it’s some of the most boring and dry shit that I’ve ever listened to.
For ours, it was mainly that you can get talent from anywhere. It wasn’t about hating white men or nothing. I mean, at least it wasn’t for the ones that I’ve attended?

This. We need to all agree to not comply.
Completely unrelated, book burnings
I will feel mad as fuck for you and use this as evidence when people say these EOs aren’t hurting anyone other than illegal immigrants.
Isn’t that the American dream in essence?
Is Archive.org keeping these records? I think they are.
I’m sure threads won’t remove your posts
It’s owned by Meta, so it might ¯_(ツ)_/¯
That was the joke.
Get your Gus already guy, what are you waiting for?
