which is par golf. I also get labeled as racist of which I am neither.
While I support Trump chasing illegals out of the country, I am a supporter of legal immigration. I also like the idea of H1B visas to fill the ranks of people we can use in this country. We can skim the best and brightest off the top and use them here. For one thing we have a serious shortage of engineers and medical people.
As far as racism goes, DEI and other bull$hit programs have to go.
I stand by opening up anything to anyone who is qualified, regardless of race, sex, whatever...BUT YA GOTTA BE QUALIFIED.
You don't eliminate racism by replacing it with another type of racism. You eliminate it altogether. Everybody has a shot at it.
For example, there is one single standard for Ranger school and you have to be able to meet it to graduate. As of now there are 143 woman that have graduated from that school. Inside sources have said that they graduated fair and square. They met the requirements.
It's not racist to demand equality for everyone.
One thing that gets overlooked by DEI advocates is that DEI programs have a dark side, too.
A nurse has told me that more than once she's had blacks asking specifically for a white doctor. Our guess on that one is that they probably think that medical schools have permitted substandard blacks to graduate. (To my knowledge they have not done this.)
Guess who gets hurt by that? Answer. Competent minority people that have busted their asses, worked hard, and have honestly jumped through the hoops and become noted in their field. They get put down by perceptions that they only got hired because of their minority status.
When you look at it, DEI is nothing more than a major insult to an entire class of people. It sounds too much like Rudyard Kipling's 'Take up white man's burden'. We must take care of our poor brown brothers. What horse$hit! What a white supremist attitude! It's saying that minorities are incapable of taking care of themselves when it's obvious they can.
Is there still racism? Sure. It's never going to go away completely. There's no shortage of ignoramuses and I don't see one in the future. Actually when you look around there's a lot of racism directed at whites.
Whatever. Eliminate DEI and make everything open to those that qualify. No excuses, no bull$hit. Total equality.
