Show PostIf you believe in true meritocracy - if you believe that people should gain success based on merit alone and should not be pushed forward or held back based on race, immigration status, socioeconomic class, etc - you should be fighting FOR DEI work, not against it.

Eliminating DEI work in the name of meritocracy and unification is making sure that the system continues to work as it was designed to work for the people it was designed to work for.
