Your feelings about this answer to why DEI doesn't work

"I get it, it comes up in my management and education degrees. Systems create cycles of executive function -and parameters within the habits, understandings etc to serve the premises of those executive functions- to replicate those same systems. Including ideological systems, which become compounded when those ideological systems are created to justify the closed systems of ignorance inherent to the limits of your cognitive systems."

Is it just me, or is this a word salad to obscure meaning. Or am I just dumb?

Yeah it's just meant to obfuscate. lol. Slightly off topic, I'm not sure the people who seem to violently hate DEI know what it means.

Diversity is general a pretty good strategy for most things. A diverse investment profile brings steady returns. Diversity in diet ensures you get the nutrients you need. When you have a company, your employees are an investment and it makes sense that it would help make your company a success.

Equity just means to treat people fairly. Not sure what is bad there.

Inclusion is a great way to build a healthy community or culture. Like a rising tide sort of thing.

@JonLosAngeles66 "A diverse investment profile brings steady returns". No wonder big "corporations" are pro DEI.

@Therealsteve lol. I've found that doing the right thing is usually good for business!

@JonLosAngeles66 Exactly, same. It's what I find crazy about leftists. They say they want people to come together and create things for everyone - which is actually what businesses in a free population do. I see x people needing help in x way, I devote some of the assets of my business to help x in exactly the way I think they should be helped, and in a way directly proportionate to my ability. Thankfully in a free economy I can do that. And a... corporation (shock) is a collaboration that has successfully produced value to so many people so many times that it's expanded to a size that it can make transactions that impact entire countries. And I'm glad those making that impact are entities with a track record of enough positive transactions to get to that size and not some state enforced mess.

Incentivize building yourself up as an individual and using that strength to serve others in a way meaningful to each individual. Don't demonize individual success and don't have the state penalize their produce and constrain their path to being productive.

By the way, OP was quoting me, I have a management and teaching degree, I've ran schools across the world.
