This isn’t a gut feeling; it’s blatant racism and twisting the narrative around DEI to rile Trump’s xenophobic and racist base.

In the same way as bleeding on the clothes of the police officers who beat you is destruction of property. Or even an assault on a police officer.

The spirit of DEI initiatives is to balance out the racist-by-default policies and institutions. Which is why racists are losing their minds.
