In a representative democracy, that seems demonstrably false to me. It is important that minority groups are represented, too.

Ok, we need 1 trans, 9 gay (we have 2), and 13 African American (we have 14) senators. Does it count if you have a gay African American as two, or do you need all the combinations too?

We are when you look at every metric. I’ll agree we should end All racial DEI practices when it stops showing up in societal and economic metrics following the trend from the civil war

I didn’t think even Trump supporters could say with a straight face he’s hiring the most qualified. Lol. Trump shows why we need hiring standards societally

^^^^Okay, I'll let the athletic department at NC State know that they should eliminate at least 10 black football players and 5 black men's basketball players and replace them with less qualified Asian and white players so the teams can better represent the racial makeup of society. I'm sure both teams will start winning more games and maybe even a few national titles thanks to their amazing diversity.

Oh yeah, it's just like 1890 for black Americans

Quote :
"In recent years, Black Americans have experienced record-low unemployment rates and the highest median household incomes in a generation. Research shows economic mobility has improved for Black Americans born into poverty.

Over 40% of Black Americans now identify as middle class, with significant numbers living in suburbia."

Assuming you are white and have or plan to have kids, you must want them to be treated as second class citizens and be passed over for jobs and university admissions by default simply because of their skin color. Because with DEI practices, there's not just a chance that people will be discriminated against by a racist employer, the discrimination is REQUIRED BY LAW.

^^okay, I retract the "required by law." I was thinking of universities like UNC and Harvard applying points for diversity and some companies mandating quota systems, but these were mandated internally rather than imposed by state and federal governments

" Jenner also spent a lot of time talking about how much she loves President Donald Trump, noting that she has his personal cell number and that he and Melania have personally called her. She voted for Trump in 2016 and 2024.
She revealed that at a recent visit to Mar-A-Lago, she wrote a letter to the president, asking for his personal help with a problem plaguing many trans Americans right now: the loss of their authentic gender marker on their identification.
"Now we're going too far to the right, you know, with gender markers," she said. Jenner revealed that when she renewed her passport, it came back with an M for "male."
"What do I do? I can't travel internationally anymore," said Jenner. She said so far, Trump has not responded to her letter, and she's chosen not to call him."

all selection processes are discriminatory— colleges don’t accept everyone who applies, jobs don’t employ every applicant, there is no possible selections process that will not reject otherwise qualified people.

I only can go by data and no data shows any systemic harm to whites from DEI, and as you have acknowledged already, DEI has dramatically helped Black people gain access to the middle class. So if we know whites aren’t being harmed on a societal level, and we know blacks are gaining, why would we remove the tools that are helping Blacks? Because some Nazi on Twitter convinced you you’re being harmed?

I’m pretty sure I had a stormfront account back in the 90s to try and argue with them. That’s where I learned the term “coal burner”

^^^^^^a case in which it did harm a white male:

Quote :
"In the case of Duvall v. Novant Health, a federal jury and later an appeals court found that specific Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion (DEI) initiatives at Novant Health led to the discriminatory termination of a white male executive"


Regarding Jenner, there's no reason for the government to support Trans delusions. Should I be addressed as King Charles if I insist that I am him?
