I think we should avoid reinforcing the co-opted and corrupted use of “DEI” to mean something undeserved given at the expense of the deserving.

"I have some potentially disturbing news for you," says @garrisonhayes.bsky.social in his latest video. "Throughout American history, the only group of people to consistently get jobs they didn't deserve because they were the right race or the right gender were white men."
Fun fact: White men don't have a monopoly on merit. #DEI
