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?

It is a word salad to satisfy some academic standard somewhere, imho.

What it boils down to is, that without some critical thinking about unintended consequences you wind up with systemic discrimination. We have natural tendencies to duplicate ourselves without realizing that in the process we are excluding people for irrelevant reasons.

Of course those who don't believe there is such a thing as systemic discrimination because they grew up on the right side of the tracks are in denial, and most are fiercely fight to keep critical thinking out of our schools so everyone else can remain in denial as well.
