If only DEI was that literal. Instead, it allowed companies to discriminate based on race, but to those with left-leaning beliefs, that's okay as long as it only negatively affects white people, because they deserve it!
Somehow "diversity" doesn't seem to mean diversity of thinking, but of skin color, so you have a room full of left-wing minorities that all think the same way and have the same beliefs.
It's like when Reddit mods say that their subreddit is all about "inclusion" and "diversity", and then right below that they say Trump supporters or voters aren't allowed. The irony is crazy. I hope this platform is less of an echo-chamber but I expect downvotes because apparently you can't support open source decentralized platforms without being a leftist?

As a white guy, I didn't know that black people were getting the jobs that I deserved based on the color of my skin. Please do go on about how someone else who is also qualified took my potential job that was supposed to go a white guy.

That's a lot of talking with very little to back it up.
I'd like some actual instances of companies that have specifically not hired a qualified candidate because they were white.
And "those with left-leaning beliefs". That's me, hand in the air and proud of it. "as it only negatively affects white people, because they deserve it" You're chatting shit mate. That's not what I or any of my "left leaning" friends believe.

Sounds like you're a normal lefty. Nice! Maybe I'm spending too much time on Reddit because the political opinions there are very extreme, it's probably giving me a more negative view of the left
-
If you think Reddit is extreme, wait until you meet the people on Lemmy. There are a couple of normal rational folk around here, but they're far outnumbered at the moment.
-
Seems to be the case, although at least it's real here. Reddit is obviously astroturfed and full of bots, Lemmy is just full of legit leftists. Pick your poison I suppose.
-
Nah we're astroturfed hard here too -- NONSTOP anti-Harris "can't vote for genocide" stuff here, until after Trump got elected and then hundreds and hundreds of accounts just vanished overnight. The topic isn't even so much as discussed any more.
There's a ton of endpoints in the fediverse, so it's really easy to spread the account production everywhere, and automation is really easy. I'd do it myself if I were a dishonest person.

look up the paradox of tolerance
-
Right, but I would argue Trump voters by default aren't "intolerant". Over half the country voted for him, and I don't think half the country is intolerant. I think there are extremes on both the left and right that are a vocal minority, and most normal people fall on either the left or right but aren't extreme or hateful about their beliefs.
-
Of the 335,893,238 current Americans 77,302,416 voted for him which is 23.01% of the country.
If I only use the voting eligible population of 244,666,890 we get 31.59% of the country who are eligible to vote so where are you getting your numbers?
-

I almost want to know how people supporting a someone who's been openly demonizing minorities and immigrants and praising white supremacist groups, aren't "intolerant by default".
-
He doesn't praise white supremacist groups... the "good people on both sides" line was taken out of context, doesn't take much effort to see the full clip with context. The issue with a lot of the left is they view Trump and his supporters as Nazis, and cannot put themselves in the perspective of a Trump voter. Y'all lack the understanding of why he won the popular vote. Why can't we discuss politics in good faith?
Trump, like most leaning libright, have no issue with "immigrants". We have an issue with "illegal immigrants". You are being intentionally obtuse and using bad faith when you phrase things this way. If you don't enforce border laws, then there is no border. Arresting someone for breaking the law isn't evil, nor is it intolerant. Do you have an issue with Japan's immigration system? It's way more strict and "intolerant" than America's.

ah, so that's why he throws racist insults left and right, makes sense. that changes everything.

yes, because legality automatically implies morality, and the law is always tolerant - something that's been true through the entirety of America's history.
Do you have an issue with Japan's immigration system?
yes I do, but we were talking about the USA here, so this is whataboutism in its purest form.
Why can't we discuss politics in good faith?

So are you an idiot or lying on purpose?

misinformation

I'm just giving my opinion from my own observations. Was every place that practiced DEI doing so in bad faith? I doubt it. But many were.
