At best, these false claims help politicians cover for corporate misdeeds. At worst, they foster division for its own sake. Neither makes us safer.

    Why can’t they just say NIGGER, I know it’s what they want to say, they know it’s what they want to say, everyone knows it’s what they want to say. Yet, we get this DEI, WOKE, CULTURAL MARXIST bullshit.

    If you are a piece of shit racist, at least fucking assume it.

    I hate the use of the general term politicians when its maga or republicans which is just a one and the same thing now. Honestly it would be great if they renamed the party which seems like such a trump thing to do anyway.

    They say DEI because they can’t use racist or sexist slurs. It’s a blatant dog whistle and everyone knows what they mean.

    Why politicians keep blaming ‘DEI’ for disasters, even when it’s laughably untrue.

    If the top answer isn’t racism/patriarchy then please just GTFO.

    Because they blame everything on the current buzzword. It’s DEI now. It was “woke” and “indoctrination” before. And everything is “radical” all the time.
