“The DEI worldview is trying to convince Americans that discrimination can actually be a good thing—so long as it’s the right kind of discrimination. I respectfully, but wholeheartedly disagree with that thinking,” said the bill’s author, Sen. Gary Byrne, R-Byrneville. “I think it pits people against each other, and it causes people to lose trust that they will be treated fairly.” Translation, I know nothing about DEI and think it is simply a way to advance less qualified people who fall into certain groups that have long been marginalized over white, mostly male and able-bodied people. As a white, mostly male, able-bodied person, this scares me. I am too ignorant or too lazy to really learn about DEI, what it actually does to help these marginalized groups of people and the advancements in our society that have roots in DEI. I just want everything to go back to the way it was when white males controlled everything and made decisions based solely on how they impacted us white males.
Nailed it! Best comment of the day…

You might get your wish.
Well said. I want the “DEI” opponents to stop hiding behind the acronym and be brave enough to say publicly that they are against diversity, that they are against equity, and they are against inclusion. Also, please let me know how diversity, equity, and inclusion have discriminated against or harmed you personally.
