    The DEI stuff is just projection. They know that currently the system is set up where there is an automatic bias towards white people. They like that. They are afraid that if we give any minority group the opportunity, they would do the same.

    They simply can’t imagine a world with equity. If they cheat, everyone else must be cheating harder.

      Most truly believe that it’s a quota and they’ll have to hire whoever applies that’s not white regardless. BUT many also don’t see how they could be more qualified… So a bit more racist than just bias.

      I’d bet good money they hate DEI because somewhere somewhen a minority or [gasp] female was hired/promoted over them despite the other person likely being more qualified…and they’ve been blaming it ever since
