    DEI is a corporate initiative designed to restructure society so it can be more easily commodified and monetized, with a crudely drawn rainbow on it so that people will defend it like these corporate entities are somehow your friends.

      Why is everyone obsessed with DEI all of a sudden? Is DEI the new thing to be mad at or something?

      Did y’all move on from 15 minutes cities and political correctness?

        It’s just one simple example of current corporate culture that most people will understand.

        CORPORATIONS ARE NOT YOUR FRIEND

          No shit Sherlock. But it’s pretty telling that you pick DEI efforts to rage against and not all the actual ways capitalism fucks the entire planet and everyone on it.

          It makes it kinda hard to believe you are acting in good faith jk.

            Gee, maybe I picked that one because I was initially talking about restructuring “social constructs” by using the cis-normative family as an example.

            Nah, that can’t be it. You’d better keep the corpo-knob spit polished just to be safe.

              You have done zero work showing anyone is threatening the “cis-normative family” jk.

              Nah, that can’t be it. You’d better keep the corpo-knob spit polished just to be safe.

              Ah Yes. A fellatio reference. Because oral sex it’s demeaning.

                This is a textbook example of why they staple rainbow flags to everything they do, so brain-dead thralls will leap to their defence as though their lives depend upon it.

                  That’s true. But it still doesn’t tell me how it’s a threat to the nuclear family.

                  And that’s because it’s not. That’s just persecution complex dreamt up by reactionaries like you.
