What diversity and inclusion means at Microsoft

Wokeness is first and foremost a legal phenomenon. You must check the box, because your manager must check the box, because the VP must check the box, because otherwise some regulator or lawyer might get angry and sue.

The civil rights legislation of the 1960s helped to destroy the evil of segregation, we should all be grateful for that. But the system that was once healthy and beneficial has now become a cancerous tumor that is metastasizing and infecting everything.

This is wrong, the civil rights legislation from the 60s is now being used by Asians in current discrimination suits against colleges. The CRM legislation was colorblind, and therefore will be an enduring protection against discrimination towards any group.

The text of the laws is colorblind. But the institutions the laws created were hijacked by radicals. In the federal agencies, univerities, and HR departments, those who serve the laws and organizations hemselves won out over those who served the ostensible purposes of the laws and organizations.

The Civil Rights legislation was blatantly unconstitutional and we should not be surprised at the modern consequences.
