Trump DOJ to Criminally Investigate Private Companies With DEI Programs

[Saysumthinfunnymike]

And just like that China becomes the worlds sole superpower.

They already are

 

[null]

They say white women benefit more from DEI and Affirmative Action...so somebody lying

they benefitted more in a world where workplace racism was "not ignored" .

now it will be ignored.

do keep up.

things are changing.

 

[get these nets]

Why would a white woman criminalize dei if white women benefit the most from dei?

Good one.

That has always been a YTer deflection phrase/talking point when it's been repeated. To downplay the benefit of diversity measures to Black people.


"White women" don't fall out of the sky as adults. They come from the same white families that their brothers do. And as such, have had access to the same resources that their white families have been able to build, without laws/policies deliberately blocking them.

And because of that, when/if diversity measures are rolled back it won't affect them the same way it will the men and women from marginalized groups. As we are seeing right now in real time, as the measures are being rolled back.

It's one of the dumbest lines I've heard repeated here.

 

[IIVI]

it does not.

because when everybody goes to get a new job racism in society will ensure that certain people find it hardest to find work.

This.

Not to mention when companies hear they need to get rid of DEI hires everybody will look at the Black people working there first.

They’re not looking at hiring history when they see DEI. They look skin deep and start labeling DEI.

This is a legit anti-Black administration primarily.

I was told the bulk of DEI hires are white women, so why should I care?


fukk Trump btw

 

[boogers]

even if you disagree with DEI you should at least respect a PRIVATE companys right to hire who they want

everyone should be upset at this. this is government overreach, but we seem to be sleepwalking into fascism

 

[jadillac]

Companies could still hire diversity if they choose to and just not publicize it.

But we'll see who's really real and who isn't

 

[BlazedWun]

It's one of the dumbest lines I've heard repeated here.

it was just a way to coverup, sugar-coat the damage done by demonizing DEI. Anti DEI is racist to its core, open and shut case.

Lets do some math

There are 33 million businesses in America

98% of them have less than 100 employees.
So let's say 2% have more.

That's 660,000 businesses. Now 80% of them have DEI programs now.

So 528,000 businesses have them (let's be charitable)

So Trump wants the DOJ to investigate half a million businesses.

Oh and by the way, "DOGE" exists to stop wasteful spending and inefficient use of Gov resources

The Number of Businesses in the USA and Statistics for 2024

The United States has 33.2 million of businesses in 2024. This article include various statistics on business statistics on sectors and more.

Had an older Indian lady call me brother when I was done paying for my package yesterday.
Like let’s bond through melanin or something.

Real talk, Hispanics are usually fukking a$$holes when doing customer service and you usually have your check them to get them to do their job. They’ve been super nice around my way lately, full spoons of chicken at Chipotle and all that.

I noticed social media and LSA are really not pushing gender war talking points like they love to--even after the election.

That threat/targeting of those Black women in DEI by that Heritage Foundation adjacent group and going after that female Coast Guard admiral has made many recalcitrant people pull their heads out of their asses and realize we are only going to get through this with each other.

 

[DrBanneker]

This is an expected, but interesting way to play it. I really thought they were just going to either take the 1964 CRA to SCOTUS to gut it like the Voting Rights Act or stop enforcing the CRA entirely.

If the CRA is gone, it would be a disaster but DEI would not be any more or less illegal than outright discrimination.

It seems they want their cake and eat it too---give a green light to anti-Black discrimination and also punish those who try to remedy it on private terms.

I have never been naive about our society and race but given this is the third time they are rolling back our equal rights I think most Black folks are not going to be as Panglossian about the this society going forward--even if MAGA falls and the Dems get back in office. Not that there aren't many millions of good non-Black people. It's just that the more stubborn integration-as-triumph types need to realize there is a ceiling that will never change nor be wished away

Can't tell someone how to build their company.
It's not illegal for someone to build a diverse set of employees just like it's not illegal for Elon to bring in H1B visa employees from India. You really think Costco and Microsoft don't know the law?
Trump's about to fall into his own trap.

i think theyre recognizing that 'fake it til you make it' (eg. pretend to be white) isnt working out for them. imagine that

you would not believe the shyt ive heard since trump talked about taking citizenship from native americans

id say half the natives i know voted for trump. yeah, seriously

now they wanna come back on some "maybe i was wrong" shyt. fukk that

i wish i had a solution. there are decent white folks out there but theyre not standing up and making enough noise. maybe its easier for them to slink away behind the crowds... but they'll come for them too, eventually.

The ultimate goal is to get women out of the workplace, but you are correct, they are going to start with minorities. And a lot of white women think the ultimate goal in life is to be a mom and stay at home. Which is fine but it's not for everyone and that bothers a lot of them, they think all women should aspire to that.
