        Ah, I see. Anectode, the plural of data.

        Clearly because the specific people who your work made you sit through being pointless means all DEI everywhere is a scam.

            Sorry, that’s not how the burden of proof works. You made the claim that DEI is a scam. It’s not my job to prove that’s true.

                Correct. I cannot prove that your claim is incorrect. Similarly, you cannot prove that I don’t put an invisible pink unicorn on your ceiling unless you make the specific claim that I did not do that.

                Because it’s not your job to prove someone else is wrong. It’s your job to prove that you’re right.

                I made no claim. You did.

                    You have yet to provide any sort of non-anecdotal evidence that they are grifters.

                    Declaring things to be true doesn’t make them true.

                  Me? I don’t work at all. And this is one of the less-racist towns in Indiana because we have a somewhat larger black and Latino population than many others, but it’s still Indiana, so yeah, it’s a racist town.

                  Less racist than when they lynched an innocent man back in 1900 though.

                  I understand you want to insult me but why are you disrespecting an honest worker?

                  Disgusting attitudes like these got to stop. An honest worker should not be mocked by an online tough guy tbh.

        Sounds like you should blame your executive team for using DEI as a prop rather than blaming DEI for not being some magical cure all that would force your executives do something beyond token gestures

            I also have a job believe it or not. We build analytical tools that are stratifiable by different types of demographics because not everyone has uniform access to healthcare. It’s a real thing even if you don’t want it to be.

              I’m not curious enough to ask them, but I am mildly curious what they think the solution should be to get a diverse workforce. I’m guessing it’s “don’t have one.”

        Dear God. If your writing is indicative of what made the cut, I’d hate to see who they let go.
