    Anti-DEI is racism personified. They coat it in a glossy shade of “equality for white people too” but since white people have literally always been favored, this is not only disingenuous but outright bullshit. The right wing racists have been trying to obliterate affirmative action ever since it was first implemented. They’ve been working tirelessly for over 40 years to set the table across the world for the right wing takeover that is occurring right now. And the only way to defeat it is to fight back with every ounce of strength we have.

      No they don’t. The biggest beneficiaries of DEI are white women.

      It’s about ending discriminatory practices designed to benefit underrepresented races and genders. The DEI debate is rife with people who are speaking different languages and willfully ignoring the other side.
