The Rise and Impending Collapse of DEI -- The Trump Administration has a big opportunity to curtail racism.

Donald Trump’s victory was in part a decisive repudiation of Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion (DEI), the odious, unconstitutional, racist, and sexist grift concocted by the extreme Left as a radicalized form of affirmative action. DEI is based on Critical Race Theory (CRT), the doctrine that all whites are bigots. It has been fused into the firmament of academia, government, and business by the far Left, those beholden to it (particularly Joe Biden), and those fearful of it (including corporate boards and CEOs).

DEI and CRT have destroyed the careers of straight white men and Asians, humiliated blacks and other minorities who can excel without preferences, reduced government effectiveness and business productivity, savaged American exceptionalism, violated the Equal Protection Clause of the Fourteenth Amendment, and vitiated a century of federal civil rights laws.

...

Last year, Chief Justice Roberts took a wrecking ball to affirmative action in university admissions in Students for Fair Admissions (SFFA) v. Harvard College, forcing universities to reconsider their policies. According to the Chronicle of Higher Education, since then, 213 campuses in 33 states have implemented changes in their DEI policies. Bans or cutbacks were announced by state systems in North Carolina, Florida, Texas, Utah, Wyoming, Iowa, and Georgia, and laws were enacted prohibiting DEI loyalty statements in Alabama, Kansas, and Idaho. However, private universities have been slower to act, and some universities have apparently renamed or reconfigured affirmative action and DEI departments in an effort to sidestep the Court’s decision.

DEI = Jim Crow

DEI should die and be remembered with the same infamy as the original Jim Crow laws.

The Ku Klux Klan wasn’t as racist as DEI. It’s so funny. BUT JUST AS STUPID. OK, maybe equally racist.

J6 trials were to see if racism again could destroy the legal system, this time in DC. Yep. Just like Jim Crow, only solitary cells instead of bullets or a rope. Fear all the same.

The race card is used to keep hate alive, not hope.

Racism will remain live and well on the internet. Especially chat boards where neo-Nazis and closet KKK types feel compelled babble about “Amish” “no need to look” and “Dilbert was right”

Well said.

I think we are being played by the race baiters just as much as liberals, and specifically black liberals.

Liberals, and especially black liberals, are embracing anti-white racism, but conservatives fall for the trick of seeing people of a particular skin tone as the problem.

MLK Jr. was right to pursue a day when people are judged by their character rather than the color of their skin. This noble objective has proven more difficult to achieve than he ever dreamed.

If DEI keeps white males out of the traditional American "rat race" then maybe it's more blessing than curse. Maybe they'll come to miss us more than we'll come to miss them.

When my boys were young, as I tucked them in at night, I would half-whimsically admonish them to "live like a Klingon". Maybe that wasn't the worst advice.
