Virtually no one is pushing to welcome people who are not qualified.

This is a huge misunderstanding at best and a malicious re-framing of serious issues within portions of the tech industry at worst.

Virtually everyone is pushing to welcome people who are demonstrably not qualified.

  • This is so off from my experience in the world I think we may be talking about entirely different situations.

    In what context is virtually everyone pushing to hire demonstrably unqualified people?

    • Literally every single one. This country has been tearing itself apart with how divisive DEI and "targets" for hiring are.

Any time anyone is celebrated for being an X in this role rather than being good at the role, this is being pushed for.
