The anti-DEI agenda (2 Viewers)

[zztop]

I thought there was already a topic about DEI (diversity, equity, and inclusion) but I could not find it in search.
Anyway, it seems one of the main goals for republicans is to destroy anything (even if only vaguely) DEI related

The Anti-DEI Agenda Is Reprogramming America

President Trump’s anti-DEI playbook doesn’t just affect the makeup of America’s workplaces. It also impacts cultural production. Just ask Netflix’s former head of diversity.

The Chan Zuckerberg Initiative, the multi-billion-dollar philanthropy led by Meta CEO Mark Zuckerberg and his wife Dr. Priscilla Chan, is reportedly moving away from political spending, following criticism from Republicans and internal tensions with liberal staff members.

The initiative, founded in 2015, always invested in a combination of social and scientific causes, but has recently rebranded as “science-first,” and has ended internal diversity programs, housing initiatives, and diversity-focused funding for scientists.

This spring, a school for low-income students that Chan founded also closed.

The shift, which has also included an overall slowdown in spending, with $336 million in grants, less than half the group’s average, came after a series of bruising encounters with politics, The New York Times reports.

Chan and Zuckerberg were reportedly frustrated after getting criticism from Trump and his allies for efforts like donating $400 million to nonpartisan election infrastructure in the 2020 race, an effort MAGA derided as “Zuckerberg bucks.” Trump, for his part, threatened the Meta boss with “life in prison” during the 2024 campaign if he intervened in the election.……..

Yes.

Yes.

I think that is correct regarding Zuck. I have little use for much of the so-called Techbros. Too many have taken advantage of the legal system including courts to wield outsized influence resulting in legislative and regulatory capture.

And every single one of them that has done that are also intentionally aiding and abetting tyranny/fascism/authoritarianism both here in the US and all across the planet. The Nazi's and the other jackholes of the first half of the 1900's had the industrial bros backing them and helping them seize power. The current day jackholes have the tech bros backing them and helping them to seize power.
