DEI effect 2

(cont'd from yesterday's post)

Yesterday's video made the point that construction projects are not the government's purview ("the range or limit of authority, competence"). Its DEI policies impede accomplishment, but that's just a small part of the damage DEI does in government or any organization.

What's the effect of the movement on people? Instead of preventing racial bias against people of color (POC), its supposed goal, it raises suspicion and interpersonal conflict. By that thinking, every person of the white race is guilty of racism and every POC is a victim.

It should be obvious that thinking that way is unhealthy for everyone. Now there's even a university study to show it. Its conclusion: "while purporting to combat bias, some anti-oppressive DEI narratives can engender a hostile attribution bias and heighten racial suspicion, prejudicial attitudes, authoritarian policing . . "

If you worry that DEI is too entrenched in the federal government to root out, here is a plan to do just that, proposed to the incoming administration by a credible source.
