    Boeing literally had a guy murdered for blowing the whistle on rampant DEI

    DEI is when you outsource to the lowest bidder

        Normally, companies don’t want to reduce labor costs. But with DEI, we can trick them into it?

        Was the problem with McDonald Douglas also the number of PoCs on payroll?

          No, companies ALWAYS want to reduce labor costs, but normally we hate them for it. With DEI, we’re giving them a way they can make it socially acceptable.

            Who is “we”? I’ve seen far too many folks survive a round of layoffs with a shit eating grin, because they like who got cut.

              Uh, IDK, have you spent any time at all on Lemmy? Every day it’s company X did this horrible thing, company Y did that horrible thing, capitalism bad, corporations evil. Except when it comes to DEI, then suddenly everyone jumps to defend a megacorporation who seemingly literally just had a guy murdered for trying to speak out about quality control issues that may have lead to actual life-threatening accidents because it might be racist.
