haha holy shit this is literally just all my coworkers

The overwhelming sentiment amongst Google office workers is they hated the people who did the sit-in protest

Except it's more like "I bet they were all DEI hires who can't code anyways"

"I hate DEI!"

"Also, hey btw if you're looking for career advice, the most important thing is networking! It means you get hired because you're buddies with the CEO and he likes you as a friend. That's totally not nepotism, trust me."

So is DEI the new “woke” or something for the American right-wing?

Slightly different niche. It's a new way of calling people a racial slur.

It's actually more misogynistic and transphobic than racist

It was largely born out of the new culture war against trans people and tech companies pushing to hire women more and so affirmative action, something that is primarily targeted at Hispanic and black people no longer sufficed as an target to attack

It’s because they can’t complain about affirmative action anymore because it no longer exists. It’s always something with the reactionary babies.
