How about we just move on because I am not. I will ask a 5th damn time:

Let's get back on topic....provide proof that on average companies are performing these illegal activities to where they need DEI programs.....You have yet to post this but keep attacking my math knowledge. We could be done with this damn conversation if you have the proof I am asking for.....
I’ve worked in management in Silicon Valley for over three decades, and I’ve seen a lot.

I’ve worked at companies in the Valley, in the U.S., that had all-French, all-Korean all-Indian, and all-Chinese engineering teams. Engineers study engineering. They don’t take classes in hiring practices. They just filter resumes by the applicants name. This is illegal, and it excludes equally and even better qualified candidates. From the perspective of a stockholder, it is not a good practice.
 
Apple calendar just removed women’s day. I told you guys they will bend to trump day by day…… slowly. Sanity is back. Even democrats are getting back to their roots. 😎
What is it that you’re so proud of?

That our economy is going downhill by EVERY economic indicator?

That we have handed Ukraine to the Russians on a platter?

That we have made the entire nation of Canada HATE us… for no reason?

That we’ve threatened to invade Denmark and Panama?

That we’ve initiated tariffs… then halted them; then re-instated them and halted them again, causing American businesses billions of dollars in harm?

That we fired hundreds of FAA employees and then had a whole bunch of air disasters and near-misses?

That eggs cost more?
That the President who promised to reduce inflation on Day One has seen prices increase steadily since his inauguration?

DID YOU VOTE FOR ANY OF THAT? No? Then what are you so proud of?
 
The Silicon Valley venture capital firm Andreessen Horowitz recently hired that murderous thug Daniel Penny. The same politicans, media figures, and Trump-supporting corporate executives who criticize DEI policies for the hiring of allegedly "non-qualified" people, have never criticized Andreessen Horowitz for hiring Penny. Penny is not even remotely qualified. Penny has no tech experience and no investment experience. He only went to community college for one year to study architecture and dropped out. Penny's experience is in being a savage, bully, and coward who barbarically strangled and murdered a hungry and underweight mentally ill man who never laid a finger on anyone on the day he was murdered.

Good questions and agree 100% with the points you mention. That list could go on and on.
Ofcourse, I can predict the reaction/ the answers already. Let’s see.

Wow, Penny is a HERO
Ask the people on the train that were threatened by the actual thug.
Penny didn't try to kill him but he stopped that thug from killing someone else.

From Wikipedia:
Neely had an extensive criminal record, including 42 arrests on charges including petty larceny, jumping subway turnstiles, theft, and three unprovoked assaults on women in the subway between 2019 and 2021.
Granted, he didn't assault a woman the day he died (as far as I know). But Mr. Neely is hardly the harmless homeless guy you've made it sound like he is.

But more to the point: Let's say you're right about some tech firm hiring some unqualified guy. So what? Do you expect anti-DEI people to speak up anytime any business hires any unqualified employee? If they did that, they'd never have time for anything else!

DEI hires are never White or Asian.

*cough*

*blinks-twice*

DEI is a concept of Principles, not a hiring policy.

I can understand that it possibly feels cool to banter-about with these en-vogue ideas in varying levels of 'oh-we-cool' comradery, but you could become wise to not speak about things of which you obviously have absolutely zero cognitive, experiential or spiritual understanding.

Love the leftwing pseudo intellectuals who always think they are the smartest person in the room, but never are.

And remember how we thrilled at the iPod silhouette campaign as we witnessed the Apple phoenix rising from the ashes.


I suppose that those dancers were DEI hires 😁

Think about that.
