yeah, and since then I've heard quite a few wokist saying M.F. knows nothing about racism and it's important to talk about the problem. Which made me think... isn't him "not knowing anything about racism" the actual goal of theirs as well? So why they are dismissing him?
That's always been the way forward. Everyone will never be treated equally as long as they keep preaching/pushing their racism agenda; but it will always be the lefts' go to because it's part of keeping minorities down and dependent on government, which they're completely about.
The fact that white people keep talking about DEI means that the corporate deflection propaganda campaign is working in keeping people distracted from low wages.
Same thing with trans kids in school. They're trying to hide so many things that they're secretly doing to indoctrinate and deceive the population, and they want it all to remain secret until it's too late. We need more exposure of the things they want to hide, because there's a reason they're trying to hide them and it's not good.

@@thelightwithin3336 So things with nice names can't be profoundly evil? That's one bad argument if I ever saw one.
Yeah, hearing about their whole “white kids are racist” spiel made me sad. My best friend growing up was black, until he moved away in 4th grade. I never thought about his race. It never even occurred to me that he was different.
he doesnt agree so in their eyes, he is no longer black. so really "black" is not a skin color, but actually a social construct... like its supposed to be...??? gotta love how the left cant keep it together with any of their movements. they all contradict if you try to put them all together
@@SogybreadTV Wrong. OP is stating facts. He is _very_ aware of the crap put into everything nowadays. That DEI crap itself is negative,and also highly biased toward special groups, mostly whites, males, conservatives and/or capitalists. As usual with marxist-inspired claptrap: it's projection; doing themselves exactly of what they are accusing others of i.e. your comment.
Hey David, as an adult who thinks children deserve the best quality in toys and entertainment you are like a hero. I hope you have a better job right now with a toy company that deserves you.
"Why did i do that?" You did it cause you are sane grown up man who feel responsebilety about children education and got what to say to people who have delusional ideas. Thank you! With all the love from Russia.
Dei might have gone off the rails But the intention behind its creation was plausible You’ve probably never seen cases where an individual's CV gets kicked off without being looked at because the person had a foreign name.
In order to prevent racism, we must bring up the skin color issue every time and remind people constantly how divided they are in fact, because if we don't do so, they would just come together and lead happy lives and friendships.
As a former kid, I've never heard or said something racist at my toddler age or another kid, except from adult people. That's freaking terrifying how misleading it is
Thanks for sharing this, I experienced the exact same at Ford Motor Co. DEI jammed down our throats when I sat in Ford Australia as a white British person sitting next to a black Zimbabwean, a white Italian, a Brazilian, a Chinese woman, white Irish manager…… the most diverse staff ever but we did NOT understand DEI according to our US DEI overloads……
And that's with him being a Black man. Can you imagine the blowback he would have taken if he were a white guy? I feel like white guys are robbed of any voice on this topic.
@@Space-ei8lv I did look, but not using those exact terms. Thank you. Now I have a whole bunch of videos too try and figure this out. I don't know why he just couldn't have added to this video to simplify it. But thanks again I appreciate it.
"The more I thought about it...the worse I felt. " is exactly how I felt when I attended our DEI presentation at my workplace. The whole concept is ridiculous.
It's been this way for quite a while. Actually it's more of a HR issue since they think social responsibilities need to creep into the lives of customers and employees
Not all people are racist.I was never racist, when I was small I was playing with a little gypsy girl, and loved each other.I always loved black people, I loved their colour, and thought they are beautiful. Where from all the madness about the skin colour? Skin is skin, does not matter what colour is. We are all humans..skin colour does not make any difference in anything. This is constructed, the rich and powerful wanted to present the black people as inferior, so can have them as slaves, saying that they are not good for anything else than hard , menial jobs, and jept them away from the universities, so others won, t see that blacks were shining. academically. Simple.
Thanks, David, for facing down liberal propaganda. You are obviously intelligent and extremely articulate. Your future is bright, and I wish you the best.
But when I said that exact same thing in the same words about a dozen times on TH-cam woke posts earlier this week, I got deleted as "hate speech." Guess you gotta be black to be heard here anymore.
Certain days at certain times the censors must be scissoring and I can say anything I want to say and I'm quite inflammatory; other times I get shut down immediately. when I don't get shut down I go wile as they say😅@@dogfightdiary5712
You're a hero for doing that. I feel like we were making really good progress in the 90's and early 2000's and all this DEI stuff really paralysed it and forced everyone to embrace our differences just when we were all starting to just "be human" together. I hate that we felt further ahead 20 years ago than we do now.
Unfortunately for them, they played this card so often and so frequently, that people finally caught on and no longer give a damn. I most certainly don't.
These people say they love diversity, except diversity of thought. They love diversity so much, that as soon as they had an opportunity they let him go. That’s like to say “we love you because of your color, but only if you think like we do.” Thank you for speaking out. You are a brave man sir.
Yes exactly. Our national broadcaster in Australia is highly diverse. They hire leftists from every demographic and skin colour imaginable but that organization has a monoculture of thought.
There’s a joke on the net, there’s four kids sitting in a classroom all different colors, the teacher writes critical race theory on the chalkboard, the kids ask I thought we were learning division today, the teacher responded we are.

If DEI is such a great thing, corporations should post on their TH-cam channel their DEI training. But most choose to hide it as they know most people are disgusted with it. Thank you for standing up for what is right.
It probably wouldn't have worked out anyway. I'm pretty sure he saw his job destroyed the moment they had that presentation, as any good ideas he WOULD have get tossed into the trash by a DEI manager, which explains why he decided to bail ship and spread truth. Realistically speaking, nothing was lost.
I'm half white (my dad is Scottish Highlander, fair complexion, one blue eye, one green eye) and half Mexican (on my mother's side). I, however look Mexican, (olive skin, dark eyes, black hair). My father introduced me to sports at an early age and I played baseball and football, lettering in both in high school. I got scouted by the Cubs and the Royals but I felt the call to follow my father's footsteps and joined the US Navy instead of playing baseball for a living. I learned a lot about life in the years I was in the US Navy having been to 5 of the planets 7 continents and seeing combat on 4 of those continents. What does any of this have to do with DEI? Well, the fact is when I played sports like baseball, I was part of a team. No one on that team cared what your skin color was. The same is true with the small boat unit I was assigned to in the US Navy. No one cared how much melanin was in your skin. All that mattered was that I had your back and you had mine. If you really want racism to end, STOP TALKING ABOUT IT. My friends that I have today are a combination of high school and military men and they all range in skin tones. My best friend is a Jew, and we play golf every weekend (weather permiting) with 2 of our friends, one guy is black, and the other guy is hispanic. We don't care about our skin color, all we care about is each others character.
@@clshep - I suggest you perform an edit, replacing the word “the” with “this”, to read: “5 of this planet’s 7 continents” Also add that apostrophe after planet.
@@stevebabiak6997all anyone has to do is read a few words further to understand the continents are on one planet and that planets earth. If they are unable to do that, then perhaps they should take a comprehension skills course.
As a white man at my last corporate recruiting job I had to sit in meetings with all white women, 2 black women and 1 other white guy and listen to how we needed more diverse candidates. Somehow a white woman in America is considered diverse even if the team is all women. I also has to run a virtual women only job fair. Thankfully I no longer work there and now speak my mind openly. I don't catlre if I make less money I'd rather speak the truth. I will never be silent and complicit in evil ever again.
Because this is marxism, the attack is specifically on straight white men, how can you not see it? Feminists created this dystopia, you people turn a blind eye and keep supporting feminists.
This is crazy. My son is 4, and he plays with the kids next store who are black. Sometimes, my wife and I listen to what they're talking about, and they're just kids. Not a single one of them gives a shit about color or race or anything like that.
It’s probably because you don’t. But if you made comments around him, he might. Then once he gets to school, if he makes friends, you might be surprised what he will pick up
I have a bunch of friends whom I've known since childhood... They're all White, save one who is Chinese, and I'm Black myself! And it occurred to me the other day, back when we were all kids, playing video games and Dungeons and Dragons... Not ONCE did my ethnicity come up! Not once!!! They simply took me in, since I had moved cities after my Mum remarried... And that was that! And now, some 30 years later, we all catch up in our annual reunion as if Time has stood still! Sure... Now that we are adults, we do talk about race among other things... But back then... Race simply wasn't a problem! I'm all up for identity and all that jazz but, I personally think that identity has been radically overplayed! To the extent that it is now causing more harm than good! I'd rather be with a bunch of people, in which my identity as a Black Man is largely irrelevant! My identity is important to me! But I don't feel the need to make my identity important to them also! Especially when they have their own identities to deal with!
Not only in corporations. But it is literally in education, presented the same way to teachers and administration. As the video points out, it's not just the schools introducing kids to this stuff but those that are investing in the corporations are encouraging it.
I'm 63 years old,and I grew up in a small Midwest town. We surprisingly had a very diverse neighborhood, we played together, hung out no one ever talked about race because honestly we didn't care we were and still are friends to this day
We don't know if he lost it or just didn't want to extend his contract. He said his contract expired but he didn't say specifically anything about why there were no continuance to it.
I don’t know, man, if I worked hard was a good person graduated and got a job at Hasbro. Only to be told that couple years in that my skin pigmentation is a major factor in my life, etc. etc. I would be embarrassed sitting in that room.
Dei is just the old communist privelage calculator used to murder millions rehashed for race The justification was equity back then. To be used a political bat to beat political opponents into submission No different today Marxist socialism doesn’t really change much. It promises equality but only delivers totalitarianism and eventually death
the fact that their training seminar (whatever it’s called) was something that they didn’t want released to the public really shows you that even the companies know they’re full of crap. If they were actually trying to create tolerance or something they should be proud to show their video publicly
I’m an Asian immigrant living in the US for 8 years now. My nationality is American due to my dad’s naturalization before coming here. Nonetheless, I’ve never had problems with white people. Never once did a white person disrespected my culture and the person I am. In fact, when I was attending high school, black students seems to gather this hate against Asian students. I remember one black student calling me a refugee when I came here in the US legally through petition. My family paid a lot of money to come here and work. Never once my family relied on the government for help. We pay taxes just like any American
You should hear what they say about blacks coming from Africa 😊 they even claim those are the people who sold them, are enjoying what they fought for blah blah.
I'm chinese but adopted by a Jewish family. No white kids ever gave me issues. Then one year I went to summer camp and all the black kids called me ch1nk. I asked my mom what that meant and she told me that I was adopted and its a bad word for chinese ppl
because asians are seen as white. Companies and universities are discriminating against white and asian people in the name of diversity, prefering people of colour, but not asians. Diversity just means more black, less white and asian.
A lot of Chinese Legal Immigrants came poor, but they all work hard saving money for their own children who have become intellectuals, engineers , scientists, AIM CEO, NVDA CEO are two of the examples of many successful s, inspiring stories. The Obama DEMS DEI just want to want create hates between people , so just the same in CCP China to control people .
I remember to this day at 3 years old seeing a black boy for the first time, or rather realizing there was someone a different color. I asked my mom about him, and she chuckled and said he’s a boy just like you. I never thought anything more about it, and saw every black boy after that as just another boy.
I’m only vaguely familiar with the game but pretty sure orcs are the evil bad guys right? So, whoever interpreted the initial comparison that orcs and bad guys are analogous should be the racist right? But instead it’s the creators right? I feel your anger. This is so far fetched it’s irrational.
Thank you David for having the courage to fight this nonsense. Shame on Hasbro & all those other commercial concerns for introducing racism to the workplace & their products.
I have noticed over the years that several people I only knew as a voice eventually turned out to be black. But that just fine since race was never a factor in why they interested me.
I posted this elsewhere, but maybe it's appropriate here as well - I would push back a little bit on this gentleman's statement that young kids can't develop a racist attitude. I grew up in an all white neighborhood and all white schools. When growing up my father did not seem to care one way or another about race, but my mother in retrospect was very racist. I remember even repeating racist remarks to neighbors - that were white - only because they moved to our neighborhood from a black neighborhood and were not keeping up their lawn to "neighborhood standards." At a young age I had no idea what any of this meant, but it came directly from my mother. It wasn't until I went to college and developed friendships that I realized how wrong my mother was. So yeah, I think you can develop a racist state of mind at an early age.
@@imaprinta You can but these DEI think it all White children are automatically like this. I should point to them how many new stories I have read about Japanese kids committing self harm because of the bullying they received for not being pure Japanese.
@@toshland5687 I don't think anyone here ever said 'out of the blue.' The implication that I got was that at that point in the video where the video states something about racism in children, this person said that it is insane. Regardless of the influence, it's not. Racist attitudes often start in childhood. And many are influenced by parents.
When I was 5 one of my babysitters was black and I had zero awareness of skin color. I loved her because all I saw and felt was love from her. What that couple said about children was preposterous and flat out wrong. Hope you’ve got a great job now, David!
Great job. I really really appreciate it. I'm so tired of that bull crap. I can't even begin to tell you. I can hardly watch tv anymore because they are always pushing it down your throat. I feel like everything I used to enjoy is being destroyed by this monster. DEI is not solving problems. It is just fragmenting our society. Once again thanks for standing up. That is what makes heros.
I'm so impressed with David Johnson...wow! Courageous, moral, a man who puts his actions where his heart, soul, and beliefs are!!! Stepping forward with the truth instead of kow-towing to the radicals who have no morals, and are ruled by greed and ego....ugh! Thank you, David, for all that you are, and all that you do and will continue to do! We all are blessed to have you on the side of humanity. Btw, great upbringing on the part of your parents. Thank them for us too!👍🏻🥰
I once worked with a man whom I liked and respected. He was a quiet, easygoing person who was always happy to help out. One day, we were sitting in the shop eating our lunches and reading our newspapers. At this point, I had known Sly for about two years. I happened to look up from my paper and took note of Sly, and thinking what a good man he was, when I noticed something about him for the first time. Sly was black! How had I never noticed this. Upon reflection I realized that Sly had never done or said anything to draw attention to his race. I had to ask.... "Hey, Sly." "Yeah?" "Why aren't you black?" "There is no value in it, so I don't need it." Sly, went on to say that he was raised in a very black neighborhood. He found he had to act our his "blackness" just to survive. When he was old enough to live on his own, he left the hood far behind, along with anything having to do with "blackness". Sly said he dedicated himself to being a good person and a good man, and not a black person or a black man. He did it so well, that I never noticed his skin color for two years! I told Sly that I believed he had solved the race issue. He said he hoped so. Sly went on to say that the fires of racism would burn out as soon as everyone stopped throwing wood on the fire.
@@Cici_Dial I think you have the right idea but you mistakenly think there is something inherently wrong with being black. The guy asks him “why aren’t you black” and then says he’s a good man and not a black man. I hate to break it to you but the color of someone’s skin doesn’t always reflect the content of their character. More often than not a black person will talk different and act different than you but in my town for example it’s wealthy and low on crime and blacks here don’t behave like you would think. It’s all about how they were raised, that’s a human thing… not a black thing
@@MrToolz. What did he say that could have possibly lead you to think he thinks there's something inherently wrong with being black? He said nothing anywhere near that.
@@MrToolz. You misquoted Sly's response to my query. Go back and read his actual response. Sly was saying he had no need to emphasize his blackness. He thought it served no useful purpose other than to stoke the fire of racism. Something Sly refused to do. Sly and I agreed that skin color is irrelevant and to emphasize it was pointless.
0:22 “Race was never more than a punchline to a joke” so true, it’s the same thing for my friend group, we got mexicans, black, white, native and we all make jokes about each other lol
There are so many great comments here. I just want to take a moment to thank you for standing up against the DEl trends that seem to be draining the fun out of so many things we enjoy-movies, series, video games, and even children's toys. It's exhausting to see quality sidelined simply for being white, straight, male, or part of a traditional family, in favor of others chosen just to check certain boxes. Let's bring merit back.
“Heroes are not made. They are born out of circumstances and rise to the occasion when their spirit can no longer coexist with the hypocrisy of injustice to others.” ~ Shannon L. Alder
I commend your parents who obviously taught and enforced ethical conduct to you as a child. I also commend you as a young man to display and act upon your moral compass, which shows the world there are things more important than money. It's very impressive these days to see such a display of courage when most of your generation just follows the crowd.
Well done Sir!!! “The individual has always had to struggle to keep from being overwhelmed by the tribe. To be your own man is hard business. If you try it, you will be lonely often, and sometimes frightened. But no price is too high to pay for the privilege of owning yourself.” - Rudyard Kipling
I have sat through a number of racist DEI presentations. I definitely didn't have the courage that you did to expose these racist programs. Thanks for having the guts to call out prejudice and racism when you see it.
Thanks for your service, you really put your career on the line to do what's right and thats a incredibly brave and very unselfish thing to do. So thank you for exposing the ridiculous and destructive policies and classes and letting people know they're not alone in thinking so.

God Bless America God Bless James Okeef and God Bless David Johnson.
I have a friend that was hired by Coca Cola. He was required to participate in DEI training as well. In part of the training was to "act less white." Can you imagine if it was the other way around? It would be wallpapered all over the national news.
I can tell your friend is lying. Any lawyer would have 💰 in their eyes and immediately go for an easy lawsuit. Such an easy win but I don't hear anything about it? BS story
Act less white? They should also tell the blacks to act less black, the chinese to act less chinese, and so on and so forth - that way there is really equal treatment and no racism or discrimination. This DEI is really full of contradictions, and the foremost philosophy is "don't worry about the white guy, it is okay to treat him less than you. You can demand him to act something that you wouldn't demand on blacks, hispanics, etc.".".
You Sir, will get way further in your career in the long run for standing up against this DEI nonsense. We ALL salute you. You are a great example to humanity!
Probably not. Been working with a lot of companies and dei is more of a one hour meeting to discuss dei every 6 months. It's really the new "team building exercise" where people know it's pointless but we have to do it because of HR
Thank you for your bravery and courage, and willingness to put your job at risk to reveal these people for how awful they are. I hope you find a place that's even better than the one you gave up.
I grew up the same way. My skin color never crossed my mind. It wasn't until school made it an issue. I don't even remember when it first occurred to me, that I had pale skin and other people had different shades of light and dark skin. But it was a major issue in the school system. I have little kids now, and I know for sure, my four year old doesn't think about the color of his skin. I've paid close attention to him describing things and people and he doesn't have any thoughts about it
As a parent and new teacher in the Broward County Public School System, I had to suffer through more than one in person and online DEI training a few years back. I was the only individual with the guts to both in-person and online question the validity and usefulness of the propaganda I was being subjected to. I did this in a very fair, respectful manner, I will add. The very well paid, higher up admins -- a white man and black woman -- who led the "Collegial Conversations about Race" workshop were stunned and nearly silent, unable to respond in any honest, legitimate, meaningful, research backed manner to my questions. (Thank you, Thomas Sowell!) I tendered my resignation at the end of my second full year teaching AP Science classes (Biology and Environmental Science). I'm now teaching in a top private school in Broward County, making $30,000 more than in the public system, and best of all, not having to suffer through DEI and defend common sense, fairness and freedom.
You sir, are a hero! The way we beat this junk is for good people like you doing the right thing! Unfortunately, the right thing is punished in today's brave new woke world. Hasbro lost a valuable employee! I am sure a man of your ability and character will find the right job soon. You certainly showed courage to do the right thing. They can never take that away from you.
What no lol. This has been going on for like 20 years. Bungee had dei (the acronym wasn't coined yet) and still released the golden age of Halo games. Video game companies are falling because of canabalization, low creativity, expensive development of games, and increased competition
@@PholoxoCompetition is healthy, chasing trends isn't. For example, Fortnite, PUBG, and Apex compete in the BR scene, but the rest that chases the trend without innovation or distinction in the gameplay loop fails. Theme isn't enough to be different, therefore it's mostly the low creativity, generic perception and pandering that kills games
@@jj4cx423 But that falls under the definition of competition. If those projects fail then it fails. If a company makes a crappy game then people won't buy and/or play it. So what if a game dies? There are other games waiting to take it's place and be judged by the consumer.
Much respect to this man. Very sad to hear that because of this he lost a job he loved. It's people like him that helped contribute towards making my childhood as good as it was, and I look back on it fondly. All the toys I played with, cartoons I watched, whatever it may be - it was a significant part of my childhood. It was easy at the time to take all this for granted but as an adult I now realise how important people like this guy are, who have a genuine passion for making cool things for kids to play with and help them dream big. I feel sad for the next generation, they won't have it as good as we did.
I used to work for a large American corporation in a EU branch, and it was the same crap. Not only did they "teach" outrageous things like this, but they attacked the smallest social interactions. One of them was how it was unacceptable to ask someone who has a different color and doesnt speak the language well if they are from somewhere else and/or where they are from. For context, that is considered taking interest in someone here.
It's like, you're supposed to treat everyone like equal Americans, but you're not allowed to ask their roots. I feel like discussing one's past is conversational. Y'know, part of getting to know them, like you would a friend. The whole iceberg is antithetical.
Not really, just the countries sucking America off. Europe doesnt give a shit, east asia is too busy being openly racist to anyone that isnt them, south east asia is too busy trying to live their life. Its really only the us and canada that perpetuate this nonsense
Wow you are brave! 99.9% would have said nothing. I am in the medical field and my DEI training told me that disease are racists and they affect black and underprivileged people disproportionately. It’s what they said about covid. I didn’t know virus can tell people’s skin color! I just rolled my eyes and moved on but YOU, you did something about it. I praise your courage. I hope I can do the same next time.
Not to defend the bs, but if I got it correctly it's an intersectionality argument. "POC are less capable and/or discriminated against", thus they have a harder life in general, thus a virus that doesn't discriminate by going easy on the already disadvantaged is "racist". Or something like that. But I wasn't there, maybe they actually do claim deseases target minorities specifically, in which case ... oof.
0:07 I have the exact same opinion and grew up in rural California and I’m a Republican/libertarian. It’s always great how most Americans want those exact same things, regardless of their political “identity”
"Wrong skillset" implies the DEI "skillset" is useful in a different situation. (Like plumbers when your drain backs up.) It isn't. The information presented is actually corrosive. It's more like teaching automobile mechanics to improve performance by dunking vehicle engines in salt water.
@@LarryEArnold - I'm implying that people get hired solely on their race or gender, but their qualifications are minimal for the job. I would rather have a master mechanic work on my car than a backyard mechanic out of his garage.
Respect man.... I initially noticed you were black, not because of color, just that I had a feeling you were going to make a great point on the topic based on the title. hope you do well in your future endeavors. You didn't deserve to lose your job over these DEI bs.
I love how you switched the two letters 'E' and 'I'. This is a great way to share your video regarding your work experiences and exposing the hypocrisy of major companies.
"DEI" is segregating, discriminating and labeling people based on their looks. How is this even LEGAL? For someone who lives in Europe, this is unthinkable here.
People always forget that DEI is also about making "white people" into the original sinners. They are sinners not because of their actions, not because of their nature. This kind of rethoric is mostly used to justify ethnic cleansing. We are lucky this time, the preachers are too fat and inept to enact the violence they preach.
WHAT POISONOUS BALONEY!!! I WAS A MONTESSORI DIRECTRESS AND A PRE-SCHOOL TEACHER FOR DECADES AND NONE, I REPEAT NONE OF MY STUDENTS EVER EXHIBITED THAT KIND OF BEHAVIOR!!!! BRAVO FOR YOUR BRAVERY!!

In order to prevent racism, we must bring up the skin color issue every time and remind people constantly how divided they are in fact, because if we don't do so, they would just come together and lead happy lives and friendships.

It probably wouldn't have worked out anyway. I'm pretty sure he saw his job destroyed the moment they had that presentation, as any good ideas he WOULD have get tossed into the trash by a DEI manager, which explains why he decided to bail ship and spread truth. Realistically speaking, nothing was lost.
I'm half white (my dad is Scottish Highlander, fair complexion, one blue eye, one green eye) and half Mexican (on my mother's side). I, however look Mexican, (olive skin, dark eyes, black hair). My father introduced me to sports at an early age and I played baseball and football, lettering in both in high school. I got scouted by the Cubs and the Royals but I felt the call to follow my father's footsteps and joined the US Navy instead of playing baseball for a living. I learned a lot about life in the years I was in the US Navy having been to 5 of the planets 7 continents and seeing combat on 4 of those continents. What does any of this have to do with DEI? Well, the fact is when I played sports like baseball, I was part of a team. No one on that team cared what your skin color was. The same is true with the small boat unit I was assigned to in the US Navy. No one cared how much melanin was in your skin. All that mattered was that I had your back and you had mine. If you really want racism to end, STOP TALKING ABOUT IT. My friends that I have today are a combination of high school and military men and they all range in skin tones. My best friend is a Jew, and we play golf every weekend (weather permiting) with 2 of our friends, one guy is black, and the other guy is hispanic. We don't care about our skin color, all we care about is each others character.

And it will probably stay that way for as long as neither you nor the parents of the other kid mention race. That's a great parenting right there.
I have a bunch of friends whom I've known since childhood... They're all White, save one who is Chinese, and I'm Black myself!
And it occurred to me the other day, back when we were all kids, playing video games and Dungeons and Dragons... Not ONCE did my ethnicity come up! Not once!!! They simply took me in, since I had moved cities after my Mum remarried... And that was that!
And now, some 30 years later, we all catch up in our annual reunion as if Time has stood still! Sure... Now that we are adults, we do talk about race among other things... But back then... Race simply wasn't a problem!
I'm all up for identity and all that jazz but, I personally think that identity has been radically overplayed! To the extent that it is now causing more harm than good!
I'd rather be with a bunch of people, in which my identity as a Black Man is largely irrelevant! My identity is important to me! But I don't feel the need to make my identity important to them also! Especially when they have their own identities to deal with!
The issue is the genetics.
Not only in corporations. But it is literally in education, presented the same way to teachers and administration. As the video points out, it's not just the schools introducing kids to this stuff but those that are investing in the corporations are encouraging it.

I’m an Asian immigrant living in the US for 8 years now. My nationality is American due to my dad’s naturalization before coming here. Nonetheless, I’ve never had problems with white people. Never once did a white person disrespected my culture and the person I am. In fact, when I was attending high school, black students seems to gather this hate against Asian students.

I'm chinese but adopted by a Jewish family. No white kids ever gave me issues. Then one year I went to summer camp and all the black kids called me ch1nk. I asked my mom what that meant and she told me that I was adopted and its a bad word for chinese ppl
because asians are seen as white. Companies and universities are discriminating against white and asian people in the name of diversity, prefering people of colour, but not asians. Diversity just means more black, less white and asian.

The Obama DEMS DEI just want to want create hates between people , so just the same in CCP China to control people .
I remember to this day at 3 years old seeing a black boy for the first time, or rather realizing there was someone a different color.

As someone who's worked with children I can't get over how insane this sounds.
I posted this elsewhere, but maybe it's appropriate here as well - I would push back a little bit on this gentleman's statement that young kids can't develop a racist attitude. I grew up in an all white neighborhood and all white schools. When growing up my father did not seem to care one way or another about race, but my mother in retrospect was very racist. I remember even repeating racist remarks to neighbors - that were white - only because they moved to our neighborhood from a black neighborhood and were not keeping up their lawn to "neighborhood standards." At a young age I had no idea what any of this meant, but it came directly from my mother. It wasn't until I went to college and developed friendships that I realized how wrong my mother was. So yeah, I think you can develop a racist state of mind at an early age.

I once worked with a man whom I liked and respected. He was a quiet, easygoing person who was always happy to help out. One day, we were sitting in the shop eating our lunches and reading our newspapers. At this point, I had known Sly for about two years. I happened to look up from my paper and took note of Sly, and thinking what a good man he was, when I noticed something about him for the first time. Sly was black! How had I never noticed this. Upon reflection I realized that Sly had never done or said anything to draw attention to his race. I had to ask....
"Hey, Sly."
"Yeah?"
"Why aren't you black?"
"There is no value in it, so I don't need it."
Sly, went on to say that he was raised in a very black neighborhood. He found he had to act our his "blackness" just to survive. When he was old enough to live on his own, he left the hood far behind, along with anything having to do with "blackness". Sly said he dedicated himself to being a good person and a good man, and not a black person or a black man. He did it so well, that I never noticed his skin color for two years!
I told Sly that I believed he had solved the race issue. He said he hoped so. Sly went on to say that the fires of racism would burn out as soon as everyone stopped throwing wood on the fire.
The ones throwing the wood (fuel of racism) into the fire are the actual racists.

I have a friend that was hired by Coca Cola. He was required to participate in DEI training as well. In part of the training was to "act less white." Can you imagine if it was the other way around? It would be wallpapered all over the national news.
I can tell your friend is lying. Any lawyer would have 💰 in their eyes and immediately go for an easy lawsuit. Such an easy win but I don't hear anything about it? BS story
You don't know how communism works.
You don't know how communism works.
@Pholoxo google it, he might be lying about his friend going through it (can't be sure) but this is a well known thing Coca cola has.
Act less white? They should also tell the blacks to act less black, the chinese to act less chinese, and so on and so forth - that way there is really equal treatment and no racism or discrimination.
This DEI is really full of contradictions, and the foremost philosophy is "don't worry about the white guy, it is okay to treat him less than you. You can demand him to act something that you wouldn't demand on blacks, hispanics, etc.".".
Bro your video is definitely being surpressed by the YT control algorithim. This video needs more attention
You Sir, will get way further in your career in the long run for standing up against this DEI nonsense. We ALL salute you.
You are a great example to humanity!
Probably not. Been working with a lot of companies and dei is more of a one hour meeting to discuss dei every 6 months. It's really the new "team building exercise" where people know it's pointless but we have to do it because of HR
No dave wont get far because hes not real he is an ai
Its an ai bro
@@mottolikedemchunky2188is it "ai bro" or "ai, bro"?
If you are hiring off DEI, you are not hiring a worker. You are hiring for a mascot.
A mascot to attract investors.
DEI literally means DIE
Literally? Are you sure you know the meaning of the word?
@@ASMRyouVEGANyet Hermetic cult --> Hegel--> Karl Marx -->Communism's D.E.I. So yeah he is right, this is a death cult, always was.

Thank you for your bravery and courage, and willingness to put your job at risk to reveal these people for how awful they are. I hope you find a place that's even better than the one you gave up.
This engineer looks friendly and smart. You love children and we, parents, are thankful for your love to kids. Best wishes to you!
You are wishing an ai good luck?
I grew up the same way. My skin color never crossed my mind. It wasn't until school made it an issue. I don't even remember when it first occurred to me, that I had pale skin and other people had different shades of light and dark skin. But it was a major issue in the school system.
I have little kids now, and I know for sure, my four year old doesn't think about the color of his skin. I've paid close attention to him describing things and people and he doesn't have any thoughts about it
same. my own black people bullied me for my skin color!

@@queenofnyc5584 stop with the bs. Little kids do notice race, look up the doll experiment
As a parent and new teacher in the Broward County Public School System, I had to suffer through more than one in person and online DEI training a few years back. I was the only individual with the guts to both in-person and online question the validity and usefulness of the propaganda I was being subjected to. I did this in a very fair, respectful manner, I will add. The very well paid, higher up admins -- a white man and black woman -- who led the "Collegial Conversations about Race" workshop were stunned and nearly silent, unable to respond in any honest, legitimate, meaningful, research backed manner to my questions. (Thank you, Thomas Sowell!) I tendered my resignation at the end of my second full year teaching AP Science classes (Biology and Environmental Science). I'm now teaching in a top private school in Broward County, making $30,000 more than in the public system, and best of all, not having to suffer through DEI and defend common sense, fairness and freedom.
Never sell your principles

You sir, are a hero! The way we beat this junk is for good people like you doing the right thing! Unfortunately, the right thing is punished in today's brave new woke world. Hasbro lost a valuable employee! I am sure a man of your ability and character will find the right job soon. You certainly showed courage to do the right thing. They can never take that away from you.
Respect for releasing the video o7. Hasbro essentially firing you is proof they knew what they were doing is evil.
It also seems to suggest that Hasbro is now owned by Blackrock, Vanguard and State Street. The Hasbro I remember was not that way.
And now video game companies are falling apart due to this...
What no lol. This has been going on for like 20 years. Bungee had dei (the acronym wasn't coined yet) and still released the golden age of Halo games. Video game companies are falling because of canabalization, low creativity, expensive development of games, and increased competition
@@PholoxoCompetition is healthy, chasing trends isn't. For example, Fortnite, PUBG, and Apex compete in the BR scene, but the rest that chases the trend without innovation or distinction in the gameplay loop fails. Theme isn't enough to be different, therefore it's mostly the low creativity, generic perception and pandering that kills games
@@Pholoxonope, just look at that the two new games ubisoft are working on
@@jj4cx423 But that falls under the definition of competition. If those projects fail then it fails. If a company makes a crappy game then people won't buy and/or play it. So what if a game dies? There are other games waiting to take it's place and be judged by the consumer.
The gaming industry are losing over 30 trillion dollars
As a dad, this new world terrifies me. Thanks for doing the right thing.
Glad people are speaking on this because it's been beyond outta hand and that class he had to take I'd probably walked out
Much respect to this man. Very sad to hear that because of this he lost a job he loved. It's people like him that helped contribute towards making my childhood as good as it was, and I look back on it fondly. All the toys I played with, cartoons I watched, whatever it may be - it was a significant part of my childhood. It was easy at the time to take all this for granted but as an adult I now realise how important people like this guy are, who have a genuine passion for making cool things for kids to play with and help them dream big. I feel sad for the next generation, they won't have it as good as we did.
I used to work for a large American corporation in a EU branch, and it was the same crap. Not only did they "teach" outrageous things like this, but they attacked the smallest social interactions. One of them was how it was unacceptable to ask someone who has a different color and doesnt speak the language well if they are from somewhere else and/or where they are from. For context, that is considered taking interest in someone here.
It's like, you're supposed to treat everyone like equal Americans, but you're not allowed to ask their roots. I feel like discussing one's past is conversational. Y'know, part of getting to know them, like you would a friend.
The whole iceberg is antithetical.
Crazy how this is probably happening all over the world, but you were one of the only ones to actually speak-up.
Not really, just the countries sucking America off. Europe doesnt give a shit, east asia is too busy being openly racist to anyone that isnt them, south east asia is too busy trying to live their life.
Its really only the us and canada that perpetuate this nonsense
Not over the world, just the good ol US of A. And maybe a little in Canada
Not the whole world. Just places with predominantly white people who think they are being "good people" by doing this shit.
Race doesn't mean anything
@@djvee25 poor Canada
I take my hat off to you bro, for standing up for what's essentially right.👍
Thank you for standing up and telling the truth. We need more people of integrity like you.
Dave has no integrity its an ai pretending to be a human
Thank you David. You had to of known you were putting your career on the line, but you did it anyway. That’s character!
I agree dave, The not real person programmed ai Was really putting his career on the line
Wow you are brave! 99.9% would have said nothing. I am in the medical field and my DEI training told me that disease are racists and they affect black and underprivileged people disproportionately. It’s what they said about covid. I didn’t know virus can tell people’s skin color!
I just rolled my eyes and moved on but YOU, you did something about it. I praise your courage. I hope I can do the same next time.
Not to defend the bs, but if I got it correctly it's an intersectionality argument. "POC are less capable and/or discriminated against", thus they have a harder life in general, thus a virus that doesn't discriminate by going easy on the already disadvantaged is "racist". Or something like that.
But I wasn't there, maybe they actually do claim deseases target minorities specifically, in which case ... oof.
TY David, we need more people who think of children's well being like you.
0:07 I have the exact same opinion and grew up in rural California and I’m a Republican/libertarian. It’s always great how most Americans want those exact same things, regardless of their political “identity”
Deplorable on every level. Thank you for sharing your story and God bless you, David.

DEI is like hiring a plumber to fix your car. Wrong skillsets.
don't insult plumbers like that, atleast they know the basics of hydrodynamics to maintain oil & radiator lines
@@kusada3035 - Apparently, you don't get it.
"Wrong skillset" implies the DEI "skillset" is useful in a different situation. (Like plumbers when your drain backs up.) It isn't. The information presented is actually corrosive. It's more like teaching automobile mechanics to improve performance by dunking vehicle engines in salt water.
@@LarryEArnold - I'm implying that people get hired solely on their race or gender, but their qualifications are minimal for the job. I would rather have a master mechanic work on my car than a backyard mechanic out of his garage.
Or... hiring a gender studies prof to fix your car! 🤣
Respect man.... I initially noticed you were black, not because of color, just that I had a feeling you were going to make a great point on the topic based on the title.
hope you do well in your future endeavors. You didn't deserve to lose your job over these DEI bs.
Here's to You!!! Silence is Never the answer.. when it come to children. Thank You for standing above
I love how you switched the two letters 'E' and 'I'. This is a great way to share your video regarding your work experiences and exposing the hypocrisy of major companies.
"DEI" is segregating, discriminating and labeling people based on their looks. How is this even LEGAL? For someone who lives in Europe, this is unthinkable here.
You say that but DEI has been affecting europe as well. Without them, there wouldn't be Dustborn for example
unthinkable for now, they want to implement it here too.
People always forget that DEI is also about making "white people" into the original sinners. They are sinners not because of their actions, not because of their nature.
This kind of rethoric is mostly used to justify ethnic cleansing. We are lucky this time, the preachers are too fat and inept to enact the violence they preach.
This mind cancer is affecting every institution and body in the UK, it's definitely in Europe.
not completely unthinkable. White males are now demonized for a colonial past by the wokist people
Man, thats really sad. Im sorry you lost your dream job. The world has gone insane.
@4:30. "Why did I do it?" Because you're ethical, moral, and an intellectual person.
