The DEI hire question. He turned on the person that asked the question to define it. She did.
Did you mean to imply that she is only there because she is black, a woman or both and not because she is capable.
DEI is just a dogwistle and from the mouth of a conservative it should be treated as a slur. They use it instead of using the wordt they want to say like c…nt, n…gger, sp…ck… you name it. They corrupted and coopted the word and now use it as a stand in for all the words they cannot openly say.
She should have pressed him hard on what he meant with DEI.
You have an odd code of which slurs and swears to censor.
Edit: Honestly, I think you used underscores to replace the ‘u’ in cunt and the ‘i’ in the bad one, which italicized your words. Not sure why you wrote out all of the bad one though. I’m guessing you changed your mind half way through.
not writing out the full words was always the intention
never realised the asterixses would be eaten by markup this way
I updated my post. Wonderful to be called out like this. It was a mistake, I’m not american so the word does not carry the same weight for me, but I tried to be sensitive about it.
Given the nature of the topic and the mistake made, I thought it was funny, so I just tried to point it out in a joking manner. Perhaps my intention didn’t translate well over text, which was why I also included the edit to try and explain how I thought it happened.
That sounds reasonable to me. Just like a couple of black kids using the N word amongst themselves is different from some white dude using it. But I think it’s also good people recognize when DEI hire is used in a derogatory way… And this is exactly what don snorleone did. Exactly like the lady defined it.
