"diversity" is: celebrating that people are different, while pretending not to notice any such differences.

Who said/wrote that? I may like to use it some time and should give proper credit.

It sounds vaguely like John Derbyshire's recounting of The Bell Curve (regarding diversity),

"We are, as Herrnstein and Murray said, living under a regime of cognitive dissonance, pretending to believe one thing while striving not to notice the opposite thing."

but it's better said. Almost like an Ambrose Bierce definition if you put it this way:

Diversity, n.: Religion which celebrates people as different while pretending not to notice any such differences.
