The racial quota is used to support minorites.

You don't need to generate a new account just to spew racism.

You can argue that yo udon't think DEI helps and suggest an alternative but DEI is not racism even if you put it like this on purpose.

Is interesting to me that I often see that kind of default response (“racial quotas”) as if that’s all DEI is when you get down to it. Hell you can have a DEI agenda without quotas. It’s about creating a space that includes everybody and creates opportunities for all. There are many ways to approach that.

I know in my brief time being involved with a DEI initiative the discussion was never about how many of any particular demographic we hired. It was about asking if we had internal barriers that disproportionally impacted certain groups. I think that’s a very different mindset than “quotas.” But people arguing in bad faith generally aren’t looking for nuance so here we are.
