And it should be and only be about, "EQUALITY. Verbal Lettuce Harris has mad it perfectly clear that she's an idiot and is all about race.

I personally could care less what color or nationality you are, we're all God's children and we need to work together as one.
She's just pandering to the Racist, BLM, Woke LEFT. She thinks she's going to be President someday, like that Office even means anything anymore. What a freaking joke of a country we've become.

You can add "diversity" to the list of terms that equate to racism as well.

This is what you get when you hire based solely on race and gender.

Competency isn't even in the top five of qualifications.

No harm if you're hiring a burger flipper.....

"White" isn't a color. Southern Europeans are darker than a lot of Japanese and Koreans. White is a vague concept where not even white-supremacists can agree what it means. But most people define it as being wholly or predominantly ancestrally European Christian.

All Europeans are a varying mix of Western European Hunter-gatherers, Anatolian Farmers, and the Yamnaya. While there is recognizable variation across European, almost all Europeans cluster fairly close relative to other populations.

DEI, all of it, not just the equity part has some level of racism built in. To get Diversity and Inclusion someone still has to make an assessment and put white people at that back or not in all all really if we really think about it.

Just a few months ago I saw a whole slew of resumes across my desk from our corporate office. Of that about 10 or so I looked at that was only one name that could have been a black or white person.

The rest were all clearly ethic names, ie, not Jim Smith. The thing is that many of these resumes these people were educated and clearly capable people, but a few were so far removed from our business that I wonder if the corporate recruiter was stuck on checking off boxes or just didn't understand what our group was looking for in a candidate.

I'm thinking he was just looking for "diversity", especially being a large fortune 200 company, need to satisfy the corporate DEI chief's quotas.

Another insidious thing in my opinion is if we keep pushing all of this stuff it's going to cause resentment at some point. Non-whites are going to wonder if they were a token hire and others might assume that they are a token hire. Not across the board, but this give one group preferential treatment over another can't be good in the long run.

She's a hypocrite.


She wouldn't support she and her husband's wealth being taken away as part of 'equity'.

Even my pompous, idiotic, liberal, son of a pony soldier, staunch ally of NK, urchin snouted, scut, who is a low example of what could only be vaguely considered any kind of prototype for a man, can not as a British person defend this admin. He sits in the co4ner avoiding eye contact. I run the retirement plan. Lol talk about an exercise in pomposity slowly breathing out and humility setting in.

For those of you that think I am being too harsh he is allowed direct daylight next week.
