And it was the man, so now the trash here blaming dei can get a life, it was your prized straight white male.
Whatever the cause of the crash... DEI is a separate issue.
It's as messed up as affirmative action was.
For jobs like Burger King or the like... sure hire whatever makes your quota warm.
For high tech jobs... hire the folks that know how to do them.
It isn't even about politics either. Personally I want my doctors, flight controllers, etc., to BE the best of the best.
If folks can't or won't put in the time and effort to become highly skilled in a field, then they shouldn't get the job.
