NPR story on DEI and how 2600 DEI workers have been fired
Ron_Artest replied to kilroy69's topic in The Geek Club
I'm a middle aged white male, the target audience of people that are told to hate DEI because it supposedly threatens me. -

It's not useless. Diversity and Inclusion is fairness, call it whatever you want. Your last comment shows me your ignorance. -

My bad, you said "going away". But it's still not going away. Again, you're wrong. -

Completely useless employment is not a good thing. We can all agree on that. What we disagree on is whether DEI work is completely useless, and the role of the government to push this opinion onto corporations who disagree. I say this my acknowledging that in most large corporations there is probably 10% of the staff across all functions that are completely useless. My employer had a DEI function created during covid that was in fact completely useless and they were ultimately eliminated as they should have been, was 3 people. We still have DEI goals and the function is housed in HR where it should be. We took it a little too far and corrected. Others have as well. But our CEO is still committed to DEI as a practice just doing it in a matter that is beneficial and not completely useless. -

Your own post of the story even though you didn't link it disproves that theory. There were 12k "DEI" jobs before anyone ever heard of George Floyd and the prior year gains were in the 20% range prior to Floyd, and then maxed at 25% year after. So there was a slight increase but since leveled off and now even lost jobs. After the days of free money and hiring people just to hire them, there were cuts as expected. The vast vast majority of fortune 500 companies still maintain DEI programs or goals even though they may call them something else these days as DEI has such a negative tone thanks to the maga idiots. -
As A Adult Man, Did You Ever Carry A Umbrella And Use It ?
Ron_Artest replied to BeenHereBefore's topic in The Geek Club
As A adult? Yeah I'm not some weird insecure man who think using an umbrella makes him a sissy, but I do prefer a raincoat/poncho/hat over an umbrella for most scenarios. Umbrellas are awkward if you're an a sporting event it's rude to other people by either blocking view or redirecting water onto them. Also wind makes the umbrella a PITA. Umbrella works if you're dressed up and can't avoid the rain and don't want to show up at work looking homeless. -

So your theory is that these people all got together and said we're going to sell ourselves to corp America that they need to hire us, then they'll do nothing and collect bogus salaries? That's the grift? -

Trump now halting ALL student visa interviews. At least he's not just Targeting Harvard anymore. Stop sending us your best and brightest. We're pivoting to producing an army of factory workers to screw together iPhones. So stupid. -

Not paying taxes is one thing. Taking tax money from your employees and then spending the money yourself is another. Bro pleaded guilty and was set to pay fines but Trump stepped in and pardoned. Terrible. -

Wilmerhale wins. https://www.cnbc.com/2025/05/27/trump-leon-wilmerhale-mueller.html Calls Trump's EO absurd. So many L's for Trump's dictatorial ambitions. Democracy is still alive. -
Trump firing off again saying that if it wasn't for him things would be REALLY BAD for Russia, Russia firing back accusing trump of threatening WW3. This psychotic idiot is the one playing with fire here.

There’s a new trade on Wall Street: the TACO trade, standing for “Trump Always Chickens Out.” https://thehill.com/homenews/administration/5320263-trump-tariff-trades-markets-rise/ I haven't been trading this market but I do like tacos so I may jump on this.

Wrong, equity has nothing about being owed you dummy, it's about outcomes and recognizing that people are different and need different support to achieve equal outcomes. But RT is not going to explain this to you. -

Again with the DEI grift Are you capable of having an honest intelligent discussion without using maga buzz words? Captain conservative, you want the government telling private corporations how to run their businesses? -

Where did I say NPR isn't left leaning? I have no problem with the private market deciding they want to hire or fire people. Own your maga idiocy Jerry. -

I remember when being conservative meant that you didn't want the government telling private corporations who they can hire or why they can hire them. I'm sure you don't. -
