šŸ‡ŗšŸ‡ø What is right with Americans?

Behold:

DEI crops up all over the place.
Easy target and always leaves an open goal of why not the most qualified for the job?

Amen brother. :latin_cross:

Bloody hell, ā€˜Murica dragging everything back to the dark ages to make sure theyā€™re toeing the Trump line before he gets inaugurated.

Scary times.

TBF lots of companies have started doing it. DEI was a fad that is dying out

The scary thing Meta have done is roll back their moderation

ā€œI agree with Nickā€

I completely disagree on DEI being a fad which is dying out. I donā€™t see thst across the industries my firm work with. Most contracts we win require us to demonstrate full DEI and CSI policies (to match their own). If anything itā€™s becoming more prevalent. And a good thing imho.

It seems more that large ā€˜Muricans are cozying up to the Trump administration so they have no barriers to continue trading once Trump takes over.

I agree with you on the Meta moderation piece. But again thatā€™sā€™murica for you. I suspect itā€™ll backfire in the EU and UK.

Interesting article - from the Grauniad obviously

Maybe not dying out - but certainly getting less emphasis

Probably because itā€™s taken as a given these days? Mind you we still have some shouty types at work always banging on and on who I could cheerfully strangle

Even Musk is blaming the wildfires in California on DEI

:lou_eyes_to_sky:

The killer will come IF they find tge Mayor spent the fire department savings on DEI Consultation/services

Everyone will have spent something on DEI - itā€™ll be just how Musk spins it - if he does that is.

The bloke has attention issues so will be off accusing a different world leader of being a paedo or something :man_shrugging:

Fair play.
LA Cops nicked some looters $200k including Emmy Awards. Got them on a doorbell camera

The DA misread.
They will be deemed to be Guilty until proven innocent.

Was not sure where to put this but Pie nails it again

Interesting comment about Tories who screamed for sovereignty, not being that vocal now when Musk is interfering in British politicsā€¦.

I posted it with the same comment in the ā€œTrumpā€ thread a couple of days ago. :smiley:

Iā€™m more than delighted that, in the dying days of his presidency, Biden has brokered peace between Israel and Hamas. I hope heā€™ll be remembered for that.

And Iā€™m equally disgusted that Trump is trying to claim credit for it on some spurious basis.

He really is a disgusting heap of shit.

He will be remembered for being a senile old sod whose hubris cost the democrats the election and one of his last acts was to pardon his crook of a son

The ā€œpeaceā€ between Israel and Hamas wonā€™t last as long as @PhilippineSaint first beer off the rig
