Self-sabotage


Anytime you see the acronym DEI, replace it in your mind with the word “sabotage”. Do the same with the individual parts of DEI; “diversity”, “equity”, and “inclusion”. Those are all sabotage. They will lead to a predictable result.

If you try to implement this policy on your own organization, you are sabotaging yourself. 

Maybe you're doing it because you think it's a good look. It's not. 

Maybe you think it is necessary in order to help some people. It's not. You're hurting them.

If you want to sabotage something useless and harmful, like government, then by all means impose DEI-- sabotage-- on it. 

But if you like something, keep sabotage far away from it. Hire the best people available, without regard to irrelevant surface characteristics and without worrying about checking certain boxes. Don't self-sabotage so you'll look good to those who want to destroy you.
