Didn’t Earn It is one step closer to dying!
Disparate impact only ever worked one way, also.
If there were far more blacks in a position than their proportion of the population, disparate impact was never used to try to correct the issue.
Think NBA.
We had to go to an IRS field office once and there was not a white person anywhere in the building...............
Now we need to work on the other side of the problem: northern big city school systems soaking up seemingly limitless amounts of money while producing illiterates.
DEI as and has always been a flagrant violation of the law and Constitution that anyone with kindergarten social skills can understand as not fair.
My boss was caught out by someone who applied for a position and couldn’t pass the written, oral and practical exams. My boss told the lawyer who filed a suit to go pound air and won. He wasn’t going to jeopardize our company and customers by hiring a DEI crybaby.
Obama and his legal team wrote the government textbook on using the “disparate impact” theory on “civil rights complaints”.
The theory goes something like this: If there were no racial or ethnic barriers to people achieving something, then there would be absolute demographically proportionate results on people by government policy: ergo, if there is not demographically proportionate impact then there MUST BE some dicriminatory causes, even when there is no discernible evidence of such.
DEI hiring in the IRS is probably a great thing for this country. If only we could every lazy, incompetent loser there.
Awesome. Now do the private sector who consistently violates the constitution.
“They didn’t have to prove racism. They just had to show some uneven results. It gave them complete control over hiring, and companies and institutions bent the knee.”
This all stems from the “noble lie” in the declaration that “we’re all created equal”.
Since, if we are all equal every group should end up with roughly equal representation in all occupations. If not obviously one group is oppressing another. This not fair, thus we need a remedy.
Trying to live that “noble lie” in the declaration is the cause of much of the societal dystopia we’re living in.
The founders did us no favors by adding that “feel good” lie.
If you ask a sample of people on the street what percentage is the black population the majority will say about fifty percent. (This from a blogger who just stops people in the street and asks questions.) It’s around seventeen depending on where you are. The reason the populace in general gets this wrong is the over representation of blacks in the media and movies.
My favorite comment about blacks in movies is someone asked a producer why most of the blacks he used in his movies were from the UK, he said, “Because American blacks sound dumb and it jerks the viewer out of the story.”
Teach children AEIOU. Not LGBTQ
And sometimes Y. 😂
This nonsense has been supported by the courts, and executive order won’t fix it.
No longer will Quality be made to suffer and have to bite the bullet because of ‘disparate impact’.
exactly correct... the key weapon in the communist/nazi Revolutionary movement (aside from street gang thuggery) has been this “dei” disparate outcomes” bullsheit
we see its adverse impacts all over the place, in government, academia, hiring, promotions, governmental grants, layoffs, everywhere
it is weakening and rotting out America from within...perniciously... .and very effectively, alas.
hoping that the Exec Order can really stop this krap! Or will the Revolutionary Leftists just ignore it or have one of their commie-puppet “judges” declare the EO inoperative?
or?
To be blocked by an obama judge in 3 … 2 …. 1 ……
Degenerate, Evil, Marxist Democrats Hardest Hit.
saw a tee shirt once that read “if you think education is expensive try ignorance” but have come to learn than ignorance is by far more expensive to teach than education.
