The point about DEI is that it's *how* you hire the best. It's not a charitable endeavour, it's a tool to stop your workplaces being dominated by mediocre people from the same background who know how to game the system.

But as far I can see, nobody is even making that argument. The worst thing about attacking DEI seems to be that it's vulgar. God it's bleak
