Don’t take it out of context.

Perhaps “benefited from” is a better term. One that doesn’t have an emotional connotation.

It depends which side you look at it from. Increasing diversity of the group being hired into, means that a potentially discriminatory hiring approach must be taken, depending on the candidate applying.

Cool your jets. I called a spade a spade, I never said anything about it being natural.

That’s a circular definition; stating it’s not about preferential hiring but then saying it’s about not giving a certain demographic preferential treatment.

“Enjoyed” is not the right word either. It’s better explained by stating the tech industry is dominated by certain demographics because that’s just how it is, and DEI initiatives give preferential treatment to those who are not in those demographics, in an attempt to increase diversity, and give equitable opportunities, and make people feel included.
