    This is the type of misinformation that Kirk spread. This is why it’s good that he’s dead.

    That’s not what DEI is at all, literally the exact opposite.

      If DEI is explicitly taking measures to not consider race/gender in hiring practices, then conservatives would largely support it.

      So they’re not racist for opposing DEI, they just don’t understand what it really is, right?

      This is the problem in politics when everyone is using the same terms with different meanings. Political discourse devolves into people speaking past each other with absolutely no point.

        Just get to the point, stop fucking around and just say you hate women and non-white people, we know that’s what you’re trying to dance around, that’s Kirk’s whole thing, none of us are fooled by your attempt at high school debate rhetoric, just own your misogyny and racism, you know you want to.

          Me liking women and non-white people isn’t even relevant. If you don’t want to discuss the issues, then don’t.

            Oh, it’s very fucking relevant, and obvious. Just say what’s in your heart already, stop being chained by us leftist libtard cucks and our societal expectations, live your truth, you untalented hate filled monster hack.

              My personal feelings do not inform this argument. What I say is wrong or it isn’t, regardless of my feelings about people or topics. I routinely argue against pro-choice arguments, for example, not because I’m pro-life, but because so many pro-choice arguments are bad. I actually support unfettered abortion and even limited legalized infanticide similar to Peter Singer, but that’s quite irrelevant to arguments I make about abortion.

                I take back the untalented remark, that is a stunning example of dancing around addressing the issue, Baryshnikov levels of choreography. Bravo.

                Just say it already, we know, we all know.
