Na, motive is needed. You cannot decide when motive is needed and when it is not. It was a political caricature, that's it. Has nothing to do with racism.
And why did even republicans from Trump's own party condemn the video?

And why was the video deleted by Trump's office?


Only racists and black sellouts are defending this video. Stop kissing Trump's buttocks

You can’t explain this any further to someone who has decided to worship Trump.

You can’t.. it’s a waste of time.
Ah....so he is a Trump cultist? grin

Why? Because Smart and best people come from all sex, race etc

How: By subjecting everyone to the same standard, same exam, same cutoff for everyone
The argument for DEI is that everyone is not subjected to the "same standard, same exam, same cutoff for everyone".

If you underteach or underfund some schools based on race for instance, you can't claim same standards at the exam.

All the supposed or Abi false gains he (Trump) had made is all in tatters.

Immigration - MO has left a bad taste in the mouths of many.

Affordability - almost everything around prices have become annoyingly expensive.

No Wars (Prince of Peace) - failed abysmally.

Health care - failed from day one. Conservatives don’t like health care and may never ever care about it. They like guns and wars more. 😂😂😂😂😂.

Everyone can rise to the top when you give them the same opportunities as everyone
You seem to not be aware that DEI is about giving the same opportunities to those who have historically not been given the same opportunities, or you just don't think the history of not giving everyone the same opportunity is consequential today.

This is you lying to justify your position.

No one believes "a black nan can only be a top neurosurgeon if you are helped with a quota. You however need wonder if only a disproportionate few black men qualify for neurosurgeon school since you agree black men have brains too.

We can discuss black women neurosurgeons once we've exhausted black men. DEI would not let you discriminate against me just because I've taken time out to increase the population.

Rice succeeded not because she was picked to satisfy a quota, rather she had that talent which was superior to most and fit Stanford. When Stanford reached out to demographics they dont normally look at, the found Rice.

This is you not understanding as usual,
There might be few black people qualifying if they are not interested or unaware. or prefer other career paths. E.g Some women are just not intrested in Engineering regardless of how much exposure you give them to it.

You will not force them into Engineering even when they do not like it and prefer to be Doctors

People have opinions, I am glad they did. It's their opinion. Intent is what matters. Yesterday deepsight called me Uncle Ruckus. I get derogatory remarks from people like you than whites.

The intent of the video is what you should he discussing if you ever watched it.

We did Condoleeza Rice yesterday.
Let's do Ben Carson today.
Here is an article Ben Carson wrote.

I believe that I benefited from affirmative action.
In my mind, I was pretty hot stuff. Only after I got to Yale and became cognizant of my classmates’ many accomplishments did I realize that the admissions committee had taken a substantial risk on me and that I had been extended special consideration. My early academic experiences were traumatic, and but for the grace of God, I would have flunked out.
https://www.creators.com/read/ben-carson/02/14/beyond-affirmative-action
So, Rice benefited from Affirmative actio and became National Security Advisor. You seem to think highly of her.
Carson benefited from Affirmative action and become a Neurosurgeon. Again, you seem to think highly of him.

What was your argument again?
You don't have one. Just Dogma.

Not agreeing with you is not the same as not understanding. Note.

DEI is about making people who were not aware, aware. Like making women and those hiring understand that women can be engineers. History does show that they were not even considered, and even when they accomplished in their fields, the credit went to their husbands.

Marie Curie faced intense, lifelong discrimination as a woman and a foreigner in male-dominated, early 20th-century French academia. She was rejected by the French Academy of Sciences in 1911, had her Nobel Prize-winning work attributed to her husband, and faced xenophobic, sexist media attacks labeling her a "foreign homewrecker".

DEI is about ensuring everyone is considered and given equal opportunity. Though, that "equal opportunity" is debatable if you didn't give it early enough.

An example of that latter is Ben's sons whom he wants school to give equal opportunity in maths to, while I spend my time giving my children superior extra lessons. Our children don't have equal opportunities, and would likely not have equal outcomes. And no, I am not asking DEI to make up the difference, since it very much can not unless at the expense of my superior in maths children.

But when the taxman come to the door

It ain't me, it ain't me
I ain't no millionaire's son, no, no
It ain't me, it ain't me
I ain't no fortunate one, no
Yeah-yeah, some folks inherit star-spangled eyes
Hoo, they send you down to war, Lord
And when you ask 'em, "How much should we give?"
Hoo, they only answer, "More, more, more, more"
It ain't me, it ain't me
I ain't no military son, son, Lord
It ain't me, it ain't me

These 3 posts from another thread sum up my thoughts on the matter, one being mine.

My disappointment is in erstwhile reasonable people that let 4 years of far-right social media programming work on their brain. I have seen radicalisation many a time and it's always a sad sight.

Thank God some of us were mature and know our left from right from centre before the coming of social media age
Ibime summed up dei in his quotes in this post.
