    Good for Stanford, but she’ll just go commit DEI somewhere else.

      Maybe not quickly - https://www.wsj.com/articles/chief-diversity-officer-cdo-business-corporations-e110a82f

      DEI seems to be hitting some new hurdles in the corporate world, only a matter of time before it happens in academia.

        Different people. Lots of true believers on campus...

          It doesn't help that the diversity department is staffed by some of the dumbest people in a tech company. And it's obvious when you listen to them talk.

          Education is extremely important.

            People who can't get by on competence will go where competence is not needed.

              If you can't dazzle them with brilliance, baffle them with bullshit.

                The biggest problem is the failure to teach basic classical logic anymore. People are not being taught how to follow basic progressions of thought and steps in their thinking. Feelings are promoted over logic as well.

                    I try to keep up to date with state of the art leftist thinking and messaging. This morning I listened to an interview with the author of a book about how we're all going to die of heat exhaustion. Most of the interview was devoted to hand wringing that Texas recently passed a bill removing the right for water breaks for construction workers. This is tantamount to murder, or something, because humans need water. Meanwhile, something tells me that workers can drink as much as they want. And meanwhile, the legislation was in an effort to remove a bunch of regulations, the 'right to water breaks' among them, that were collectively strangling businesses trying to get stuff done. And nobody is getting less water now than before.

                      The Texas bill did not remove the right to take water breaks. The Texas bill removed the ability for public works unions to negotiate with individual communities and required the unions to negotiate with the state. It also voided the current contracts with various communities. In some of those contracts were a determined number of water breaks, thereby creating your talking point.

                        So the leftist take was even dumber than I understood it to be. It's all just blatant emotional manipulation of the low information leftist masses.
