What hiring manager would pass on a "more qualified" minority applicant these days? They need their jobs too. Hiring lesser qualified whites, who sh!t the bed, will get them fired. You guys are fighting a decades old war that was over decades ago. Show up to work, on time, everyday, work harder than the next guy, produce better than the next guy, and watch yourself climb that corporate ladder all by yourself. It doesn't matter who you are.

In a merit based society we dont need DEI, Precious.

The purpose of DEI is to hire a lesser, or, for the sake of argument, equally qualified applicant, based solely on the fact that the applicant you're hiring isn't white. In order to increase the amount of non-white employees employed by the company. That is the sum total of DEI.

If the person is qualified, you dont need DEI. For focks sake, what is it you people dont understand? Its clear that some of you have never run a business or been responsible for hiring, and more importantly these days, firing, anybody. ITSATIP: Business owner's want to hire the best qualified person for the position they need filled. Period. It saves them money on training that individual and ensures that person knows wtf they're doing. Taking a flyer on somebody because you dont have enough blacks or women or gheys or mental patients on staff, isn't a sound business plan.

Hire dat nigga!

I'd bet he'd tell you that. If, in fact, he found the perfect person for the job he was looking to fill for his company, and that person wasn't a white guy, he'd hire em. Mebbe not a jew, though.

I see you haven't answered the question either. Why is that?

Do you actually believe he would pick a lesser qualified person for the job based on skin color? He's not a big believer in DEI. So I dont think he would do that.

I think he'd pick the best qualified candidate. 90's is pretty shrewd.

Im not the one who needs to be educated on the intent of DEI policies. HTH

Exactly. The cream rises to the top of the bucket. From which everybody is free to scoop. When you force people, by government mandate, to reach below the cream to find and promote certain people based on race, it is the definition of racism.

DEI is, by definition, the practice of advancing lesser qualified people in the name of diversity, equity and inclusion. Is it not?

There is no better horror movie critic on the interwebs imo.

Fort Bragg is and has been a badge of honor for all of those who trained there. Changing the name in the first place was a slap in the face to those people. It never should've happened in the first place.

I like MDC. He's been here forever and he cracks me up all the time. We disagree on prolly all things political, plus he's a fockin Philthy fan. But I think he's capable of rational thought. I just think he loves to troll.

Changing the name back to the original name after it was changed by the previous administration for the same petty, unqualified ideologies you're claiming this to be? Come on man. You're better than this.

He never did anything worthy of having a US Navy vessel named after him in the first place. I see no problem with renaming it in honor of an actual MOH recipient. I dont think that's petty. We should be naming our Navy vessels after actual war heroes rather than ghey activists. Don't you think?

So naming the ship for petty, unqualified ideologies is fine. But renaming it is an issue somehow? Meh.

Not everything. They ignore the stuff that benefits them and concentrate on sh!t that has nothing to do with them. Its idiotic.

The Secretary of the Navy named it the USSHM. The SecDef renamed it. How is this about Trump?

Dood was awesome!

I don't begrudge him that. But to turn around and act like everybody else was born with the same silver spoon and didn't get where they are through their own hard work and determination is focking pathetic. He didn't have to do it, so he thinks no other white people had to either. We all just got handed a decent life on a silver platter with no effort or hardship. He and his mindset are what is wrong with this country.

No, when you institute idiotic policies like DEI, you open people up to scrutiny when they are deemed incompetent or under qualified for their position based on their performance in that position. As a side benefit, it gives race grifters, like you, a platform to declare others racist for expressing their opinions. Thankfully, nobody gives a sh!t about being called racist anymore. You, and disingenuous people like you, have abused the word so often, for so long, that it doesn't mean anything anymore.

Why would describing someone as a DEI hire belittle them? Is it because they weren't hired based on merit but some other set of made up criteria that has nothing to do with merit but everything to do with race, gender, sexual preference or mental disorder?
