I'm not going to pretend judging people by their skin color (or any other bogus criteria like those outlined by the hacker ethics) is not discriminatory.

Whatever DEI was meant for, due to its unagreeable practices its unrecoverably burned into the ground.

I, for one, am in favour of DEI pillars such as pregnancy leave and accessibility to the disabled. Especially the latter seems pretty important when it comes to developing a core component of a computer interface.

How is accessibility not inclusion or equity?

Well, that sucks, because whenever you argue for being more "inclusive", you are now one of the annoying people. Regardless of the actual merit of your point. Its a pretty shitty time to be disabled.
