Elon Musk Says DEI 'Must Die'
Newsmax ^ | December 15, 2023 | Lee Barney

Diversity, equity and inclusion (DEI) mandates are in and of themselves a form of discrimination and must end, Elon Musk said Friday.

“DEI must DIE,” the billionaire wrote in an X post, Forbes reports.

DEI programs have been enacted at American corporations to help minorities who have faced discrimination by giving them hiring, training and mentorship advantages.

Musk said that while DEI’s intent “was to end discrimination,” it has served to “replace it with different discrimination.”

Yesterday’s dance of the fairies at the Whitehouse is another fine example of DEI.

DEI is nothing more than Chinese Cultural Revolution Crap/Marxism.

It’s evil.

Stay with that crap and million of people will die and our country and democracy will fail. Listen to the filth pushing it - they hate the United States, they hate our Constitution and they hate our freedom.

Musk is right on this one...and thank God he bought Twitter and put an end to their thug infused Marxist propaganda.

DEI = Divisiveness, Elitism and Indoctrination.

merit based requirements are the only factors that should be utilized.

using race or skin color as a qualification is antithetical to our guiding principals.

of course, if they insist on continuing on this course... then it’s perfectly fine to have whites and asian only requirements.

"There's a thin veneer of hyper-competent professionals who keep the lights on and the water drinkable. Replace them with the incompetent and the water turns brown and the lights go out."

DEI is all about accomplishing that replacement.

Promotion according to anything but competence and skills ruins any organization. The Soviet Union was a prime example. Labor unions can be another when they control advancement, (UAW - I personally dealt with this for 15 years). Venezuela drove all the technical people who made its' oil industry and power grid work into exile, in favor of political cronies. South Africa ditto, as Musk knows only too well. NASA, exemplifying Jerry Pournelle's Iron Law of Bureaucracy. The Roman Empire. The list seems endless.

Diversity, equity and inclusion are words that by themselves mean nothing, by the way. Like tolerance. It means nothing until you give it context. Diversity of what? Eqity of what? Inclusion of what? The “what” tells you if it’s good or bad, not the other thing.

Musk is firing on all cylinders!😃

He better keep an eye out, though. Leftists are going to go after him with all they got.

He’s their most hated guy after Trump.
