    For years, the government has mandated hiring unqualified DEI applicants. No one is saying to favor non-DEI candidates. A level playing field is all that is asked. If some can't handle that, then... well, then they have a problem with meritocracy.

    DEI is racism against groups that have historically earned it and done well. That's awful.

    GOOD DAY

    Tinman with his "calling all douchers" Batsignal, making sure they show up en masse to spam someone who disagrees with their narrow-minded stupidity.

    No secret that DEI is a not-so-clever way of saying, "We don't want n*****s unless they're on our sports teams."

    Not so. NFL owners are almost 100% white yet have no problem with a 70% black representation for players in the league. Because they believe in meritocracy. So why then, do some reject that this same phenomenon can happen with other races in other industries? Such as finance, technology, engineering, etc. If some races are better (on average -- there are always exceptions) at certain things, then fine, accept it and strive to catch up. Don't mandate that the weaker candidate be hired just to right some perceived historical wrongs.

    Meritocracy should be applied in all fields -- that's fair. And if that means 70% of the NFL is black, and 90% of Wall Street is white, then so be it.


    GOOD DAY

    America has NEVER been a Meritocracy

    Is Patel the best for the FBI? RFKJr for Health? WWE lady for Education? Hegswhatever for Military?
    Where is the merit in any of these folx?

    The only qualifications Trump considers merit based are:

    *Trump Loyalty above all else
    *Big, big donations to Trump or his businesses
    *Writers and advocates of Project 2025
    *Willingness to lie for Trump
    *Willingness to defend any corruption by Trump
    *Willingness to seek retribution against anyone that calls out Trump's corruption and lies
    "Willingness to put Trump above the law

    Of course this stuff earns extra points...

    *Willingness to fire black and women leaders and replace them with less qualified white Trump loyalists.
    *Willingness to spread Trump's conspiracy theories
    *Willingness to make cyber crimes easier to get away with
    *Willingness to strip civil rights
    *Supporting suppression of free speech or retribution that doesn't support Trump's take on history, or which paints him in a bad way
