DEI is for R E C R U I T I N G! Its not for getting a lower standard to pass.

You have to pass whatever standards needed to get the position.

The rightwing goons just can't get it through their thick fucking skulls.

allows them to legitimize discrimination while replacing qualified, tenured, and experienced minorities with Trump loyalists and INCOMPETENTS.

... that allows them to roll the clock back by undoing decades of progress in diversity and inclusion, at least.

It's the same kind of diseased mentality that uplifts and glorifies hate-peddling bigots like Kirk while condemning care and empathy as 'woke,'

that accuses families of school shooting victims of perpetrating a hoax,

and that demonizes working, legal immigrants as cat and dog eaters.

The kind who romanticizes slavery, has praise for despots, and who become Hitler apologists when it serves a political end.
