Every implementation of DEI I have seen excludes straight white people, so is the complete opposite of inclusiveness.  Not sure how leftists are completely blind to this and expect white people to bend the knee and accept being second class citizens in their own countries.  

DEI might seem to "exclude" straight White people (only right-handed ones 😉 ) because, before DEI and its predecessor, Affirmative Action, preference was given to straight White people. DEI is an attempt to make sure that kind of preference is not practiced anymore.

White people don't have to accept being "second-class citizens." They have to accept now that all others are also "first-class citizens."

The democrats have seen that a far left agenda wins them nothing but the worst defeats in decades. They have two choices, expel the far woke left and run on a more moderate line, or try to please moderates and far liberal lefties at the same time  and end up in the same chaos in 4 years time. 

 

Personally I think Trump might be the person that rebuilds the democrats into a more reasonable party.

Inclusiveness (DEI) is what a society should be all about

100% erroneous. Society should be about merit not doling out awards based on looks. Stop insulting yourself.

You really sound hopeful.

On this you are correct, which is why they voted in Trump.   Using racist policies to correct previous racist policies from decades ago is racist.   Do better, be less racist by treating everyone equally and maybe then people will give the left a chance again.  

DEI is not Affirmative Action, which was an attempt to "correct" situations arising from White-favoring racist policies in the past. DEI is only trying to ensure that no racist (or other prejudicial) policies will continue in the present.

Your status in society should not be based on merit—that's a feature of capitalism. Your status in society should be equal to everyone else's—that's a feature of socialism.

The US is by far the most tolerant country in the world when it comes to the whole trans, non-binary, amorosexual, decide whatever you want today, if it fits mentality. No other country is as loose, driftless, and as silly as the US, except perhaps the UK. 

 

Try Canada....

The left using race is racist in of itself. Use race as a prop to further a political agenda. This is why so many minorities are waking up to the scam. 

The left and DEI are not using race (or any other feature) as a "prop to further a political agenda." They are trying to eliminate racism and other prejudices from the workplace.

DEI is racist.  People who support it are racist.   Nobody likes a racist.  This is why the left lost.   

DEI is not racist, nor does it advocate any other prejudices. DEI is an attempt to make sure that racism and other prejudices are not practiced in the workplace. Like I said before, it is not Affirmative Action.

I am a far-left liberal, and I accept that Trump's election was, in part, a "wake-up call" on what the right-wingers call "woke" issues. However, I think the "wake-up call" should not be taken as a call to change the policies but to try to further educate the public on these issues and what is best for society. I, myself, intend to stay "woke." 

then you will lose again, the majority of people don't want it

I will not lose. I didn't lose this time. I will be the same years from now as I am today. The people who lost are the ones who were conned into voting for Trump.

no, they won, WON WON you LOST LOST. but if you dont see that the woke crap is not what the majority want, you ie the woke, will lose again.

It is you who do not understand. I am woke.  I will remain woke. It doesn't matter to me if that's not what the majority of my fellow citizens want right now, and I didn't lose. I kept my values. I only hope more of my fellow citizens will develop those values in the future. I think four more years of Trump might help them see the results of rejecting those values. And actually, I don't think they reject these values. I think they've just put their own interests above them.

This luxury you have in life comes from capitalism. Funny that. 

The joy and peace I have in life come from my socialist values.

What a load of dung. Your comfy life comes from the value you were able to obtain over your career at work. 

 

Which now affords you that peace. Your values are grandstanding.

My values are much more important to me than my finances and always have been.
