US is so cooked, people there think that DEI is super radical communism, while in reality it's nothing more than some liberal program
- Because it's so subjective, it can apply to anyone they want.
  Did you once donate $7 via PayPal to a fundraiser during the month of June? You're a traitor. Post a picture with a rainbow flag on FB? Traitor. Watch Ru Paul's Drag Race on Amazon? Traitor. Be hired for a job that had previously been perfectly fine in the government? Traitor.
  They have an army of Good Ol' Boys ready to cause just enough terror to keep people in line, and the precedent is there that they may simply be pardoned. Fear is the only certain thing.
  
  The good ol boys could use a little fear
- People here think that it’s reverse racism. They think putting an emphasis on diversity hiring means throwing away white applications without remorse.
  
  People here think that it’s reverse racism.
  Do they REALLY though? Or are they just racists using it as a convenient filter for their racism?
- I think DEI is just really easy to attack. As the only policy for trying to combat discrimination by itself, it's not the cure for racism as some liberals would like to think

So this is just McCarthyism right?

So much for the
reich.

oh so like an american Myrotvorets
- I didn't know what it was, so I looked it up... the NATOpedia article is an emotional rollercoaster lmao:
  On 27 May 2022, Myrotvorets added the former US State Secretary Henry Kissinger after Kissinger, speaking at the World Economic Forum in Davos, suggested that fully antagonizing Russia threatens stability in Europe.[61] The site accused Kissinger of spreading "Russian-fascist propaganda" and acting as an "accomplice to the crimes of Russian authorities against Ukraine and its citizens."[62]
  Followed by this:
  Israeli-Russian singer Eden Golan, who auditioned for Russia in the Junior Eurovision Song Contest 2015 and represented Israel in the Eurovision Song Contest 2024, was added to its list after she performed in the children's edition of the New Wave singing competition in 2016, which was held at the Artek camp in Russian-occupied Crimea.[66]
  The fact this site's wiki page makes me first agree with Kissinger, and then agree to boycotting and blackballing an israeli eurovision singer in the space of one paragraph, is wild.
  
  Kissinger was a monster, but what made him so monstrous was that he had the accurate read on geopolitics and the world that usually only comes from communism and historical materialism. He was dead on about how the world worked, he simply used his powers for evil
- Haha. Liberals suddenly knowing about Myrotvorets style shit would be hilarious since the ones that knew about it were like "Well yeah, they have their reasons".
- almost as if the same groups of people were behind both

Come December, I better be seeing some leaked memos from department heads declaring that any Christmas-themed decorations are banned due to violating the anti-DEI rules.
