My favorite part of this though was how they said “Black people are 14% of the population so they should be 14% of the CEOs of Fortune 500 companies, instead of only 8%.” Meanwhile, Asians are 14% of the CEOs in Fortune 500 companies and only 6% of the U.S. population. Conclusion? “White people are racist!”

I was invited to join my company’s DEI committee. We had a committee this week. All light skin people and one trans woman. It’s a lot of people patting themselves on the back for performative actions.
That interesting. My wife is also on a committe like that at work. I am asian and my wife is white. He shares with me that the problem she sees is the same problem u have. All white people on this committee even though they have people of all cultures. They feel like they can just ask them to join their team, That is tokenism. All they can do is invite. I have heard of other community organizer in mostly white suburbs who seek to do similar work in their community. Again, they cant seem to get non white people to join their efforts. My church wanted to follow the leadership of the asian churches in our area to address racism towards asians a year ago. Crickets. As an Asian community leader who works in a white church, it was very disappointing. I don't have the answers.
@@DanLee8884 when the HR lady reached out to me to recruit me into the committee I even told her “I’m not particularly diverse “(I’m white). She said because I’m a woman and I work from home I’m diverse. I do have some health issues. So I think I will lean into that aspect of it. I think DEI often leans more towards racial diversity. But it still seems odd looking at Teams meeting attendees, it is all light -skinned people. The HR person is a light-skinned woman originally from Latin America.
When I was in the military, I had to work with people from all walks of life and from all sectors of America.

Military readiness depended on it. I cannot comment on corporate issues, but in the military it was very important.
The problem is thanks to CRT (which is not 'real history'), the current line of thinking is color blindness is bad. This has caused a push for segregation to come back as a positive, not a negative.

I've taken the time to read it, both sides are wrong and it's worse than either realize/admit. It is literally where these ideas have come from, including the whole anti-color blindness movement.
DEI absolutely means "Didn't Earn It." I don't know if leftists fully comprehend that. That by enforcing affirmative action like this you are building that reality into the world, that because of YOUR POLICIES it's now safe to assume a person of color in a high skill job or especially attending an elite university is probably underqualified and didn't deserve to be there.
As a Black Autistic person on the DEI board at my job, the REAL problem with DEI is that it has become another euphemism for "Black People," that's the problem. The problems I have at work have more to do with my Autism than it does with my Blackness. But if I say that then I get the classic Autistic gaslighting, I don't really understand what's going on. Either DEI is about Diversity for all, Equity for all and Inclusion for all, then it is just another bunch of nonsense used to get people fighting amongst each other instead of fixing the actual problem as it comes to race. If you want to know what that is, here is where you start. Can you define a term by using the term in the definition? What are the definitions of the racial groups in America? What does the term "Black Racial Groups of Africa" mean? Have fun with that rabbit hole.
The real problem with DEI is you are the enemy of free and equal people everywhere. The real problem with DEI is it is a PROFOUNDLY racist ideology and you are a profoundly racist person for forcing it on people.

Not having equity does not mean racism and if is racism causing fewer black CEOs, then why are there so many Asian and Indian CEOs? Just stop this stupidity.
My experience with DEI training as a white Canadian is spending way too long learning which department/manager I should go to/be reported to if someone's feelings get hurt.

Broken clocks are right twice a day. If you believe in real liberal values, you cannot be on the side of this. I implore EVERYONE to read the DEIA Playbook before debating this.

How about we stop pretending to care about communities and start caring about individuals on a one by one basis. You don't care about the black community, you don't care about the LGBT community, you certainly don't care about poor white communities, however you have the capacity and the ability to care for and help individuals within these communities. We aren't a country of communities, we're a country of individuals and families. If you try to help "communities", all you're doing is saying "eh, someone somewhere will deal with this".
Or how about do your homework or get a job? Asians and African immigrants do great because they make few excuses. African Americans actually hate African immigrants for being like asians and their lazy jealousy is laughable.
DEI is very hypocritical. It's like fighting racism with racism. I have my own business and I hire the best qualified person for the job that is available their skin color makes no difference to me whatsoever.
This is the kind of stuff that doesn't let racism be forgotten. If we ever want to end racism completely we have to let it go. It's like an ex that you go look at their social media everyday, it doesn't help in any way.
Standards aren’t being lowered with DEI. They were lower BEFORE DEI, because it was assumed that white males were always the best candidates for studies or jobs.
@@naylas3908 when you eliminate standardized test, scores for college entrance, that’s lowering standards. When you lower the weight that firefighter recruits need to drag to be able to hire females, that’s lowering standards. When you extend time limits on physical agility exams for police recruits, that’s lowering standards. When you allow military recruits to opt out of physical training, that’s lowering standards. In every industry, there has been a lowering of standards in the last five years in a blatant attempt to hire DEI. You are either ignorant if you do not see it, or lying if you deny it.
Or you know, the standards were lowered for police officers because most of America is obese and you need to hire police officers? And females obviously can’t lift the same as men, but women should be allowed to be firefighters? And the military is experiencing a shortage of recruits right now, so they are lowering the standards to hire more people. You know you could advocate for increasing the STANDARD of living for poor Americans, black and white, so they can meet the standards healthier wealthier Americans have set and been born into. Because nepotism ignores standards, and I’m sure you know that’s a problem. I think you haven’t fully explored this lowering of standards in our country and have become stuck and narrow minded on one element of it that bothers you. I implore you to broaden your understanding of this multilayered issue.
It's way way worse than that, honestly. If you want a tangible look at what it's done to just one tiny corner of one tiny industry, compare MCU projects from before 2019 (writers, directors, producers, etc) with those after 2020 (esp into 2022 and up). The experience level goes from hundreds of projects to less than five like a cliff. Then they try to say the quality is the same.. or gaslight you into being anti-diversity for pointing out the 'ignore experience' hiring..
@@MsNikki1908 If you look at the credits of anything they have done before, then review their DEI protocols, then compare them to the sudden slide in experience (I am talking from a hundred or more credits being average to under four average) it's pretty obvious. Doubly so when you look at the types of projects they do have, usually student film documentaries or a single episode of a TV show.
@@MsNikki1908 Compare the NF Daredevil to the D+ Secret Invasion if you want a laugh. Echo had precisely one experienced writer, but it did have people with their experienced limited to a tiny number of Native American related projects. The directors, producers, even the showrunner experience all plummeted at the same time. People mad about the MCU in front of the camera are missing the problem, which is the MCU behind the camera. The quality has absolutely plummeted.
As a white dude who's on a DEI committee and has talked to a lot of people about DEI, the main thing I've taken away is that most places and most people do DEI wrong. It's not a flawed concept, it's just flawed in the majority of its (usually token) execution
Its a highly flawed concept because equity and equality are not the same thing and equity is nothing but dangerous and none of you have any clue what it actually even requires. As a black man, no one and I mean NO ONE is going to tell me I have to go be a specific thing because its that place that needs another one of me to meet its equity quota and THAT IS EXACTLY what it leads to. People having no choice in their jobs because its no longer about YOU, its about everything having equity.
I hear you. But I've also seen an enormous change on how women are treated. Back in the day male execs were always looking for the next girlfriend among amployees. Now there's very little of that and far more women in upper management. So I wonder if those committees pay off over time.
@@thomasjones4570I have no idea what you are talking about and have never heard of DEI being used that way. The “flaw” in DEI is that it lacks real power and influence in the company
True blind interviews should be given to all. No names or pictures, just a random assigned #. Corporate doesn't see you until passed the process. Same goes for colleges.
Look at the front of house for the vast majority of businesses. It's usually someone who is deemed very attractive- (no matter the race) The general public likes attractive people. Blind interviews wouldn't work for so many reasons. Also the other commenter is spot on, no-one wants to be a number.
But, just to be clear, that means you disagree with DEI. DEI actively promotes hiring based on identity over merit --- the theory being that doing so is necessary to undo the injustices of the past. Proponents of DEI like to pretend this isn't what DEI is, but to think otherwise is to be willfully blind to the _obvious_ results of giving corporations incentives to diversify their workforce: Such incentives necessarily compete with incentives like "talent" and "capability".
They do actually have programs GLOBALLY to improve participation. Giving people opportunities to participate fairly doesn’t mean equal outcomes. I mean what about the NHL? No duh they wont have players from West Africa like the NBA does,

So we should not address the inequity that was produced by more than 189 years of legal Apartheid. We should just be like BOOM!! No more Apartheid everything is fair now. Do that and ignore the inequality that those 189 years produced? That makes sense to you. How does it hurt "ethnic groups"? If anything, it would hurt the company if that person was not qualified. How would it hurt a member of that ethnic group? You really think companies are hiring unqualified people because of the way they look? Does every failure of a person an ethnic group mean that the person wasn't qualified. I mean not every non-DEI recipient thrives at certain jobs. Many of them are fired as well.
Merit should be the first contender for hiring practices. You would be a fool to disagree. When you then have two people with the same merit, then diversity can be quite smart, but dont focus on skin color, focus on life experiences where diversity really comes into play. Ask people who they are, how they grew up, challenges they have faced in their personal life along the way. Its smart to want access to out of the box thinking at your work place, and you can do that by expanding the box.
Seeing how many people actually believe that DEI or CRT are anything other than thinly veiled attempts to make anti-white racism official policy is making me think I need to start voting for Trump.
DEI at its core is well meaning, but corporations always find a way to exploit social causes and conservatives always find a way to tear down Black social movements. Most YT people since Trump are not interested in advancing or understanding Minority social causes
They do this with everything. So-called conservatives found the loophole of McCain-Feingold campaign finance reform and turned it into this Citizens United nightmare. Their time-tested strategy is to break everything their billionaire donors don't want to spend on -- unions, public education, Obamacare, Social Security, Medicare, the Federal Govt -- by starving them of funds and then saying, See -- it doesn't work.
Yup, like most things, if you don't actually care about DEI and are just checking a box that you do DEI stuff then that DEI stuff is going to be awful, lazy, cheap junk.
I'm a minority woman. I'm fed up with DEI. Hire the BEST, regardless of gender or race. DEI itself is discrimination. I avoided red states for doctorate but tried a handful for post doctorate. Red states didn't care what I looked like, no different than Ivy Leagues.
DEI got started because white people convinced themselves that they are the best and nobody else is worthy of the job. That's Krazy. Give somebody else a chance. There are more than enuff white people working inside the cubicles. Let somebody else get the promotion. Why does everybody with a big name job title have to be white. I work in a diversed building. In my building, you can probably find every ethnic group. I was told by a co worker that back in the 90's he estimated the workforce in the building was around 80% white. Based on my observation, I estimate in 2025, the workforce is now 15% white and the 85% consist of non white people. It looks better that way. White people are not the only ones existing. Their not the only ones with competence for a job. The deputy commissioner on my floor is a black man. The commissioner on the fifteenth floor is Indian. The chief of staff on the 19th floor is Puerto Rican. The chief of staff on the 14th floor is Asian. The way I see it, if a white person is bellyaching about DEI because a non white person got the job or promotion, oh well, that's just the way it is.
@@nyc4life448Who cares if they are all white,black,asian or trans. All that matters who is the best candidate for the position. To rely on DEI makes it sound you don't have any faith in minorities abilities. If you don't why should anyone else?
Then they will just lie and say the white applicants are more qualified just like they say Caitlin Clark is the best when we all know she isn’t. The best will always be white when the people who are hiring are white
Asians, Indians and Latinos see all those words as just another code for black drama. They are the Karens of minorities and think they speak for us all. In reality it's just for them and racist against all other not them.
I’m a democrat but I’m tired of people boycotting everything because of DEI. No matter what race and gender you have, still be qualified for a position.
I’d like to think that Charlamagne seems to not like fake DEI? Meaning companies basically promoting Diversity for the appearance of it, pretending they are inclusive but don’t have any minority executives. He doesn’t seem to have an issue with actually being diverse, equal, or inclusive of everyone. I don’t agree with some of his other stances, or how he approached the convo with Nikki Haley, but he’s right about that. However, calling out things like this without providing some potential viable alternative feels weird.
It's corporate window dressings. Instead of fighting for actual income inequality, which most inequality stems from, they 'throw a bone' to progressive / lefists ideals and hope you don't pay attention to the actual roots of the problem.
@@kwmcgrealCan't just get into management because of race. They have to earn their positions like anybody else. Valuing education and hard work is the key. Look how many Indian CEOs there are, and increasingly African. Black Americans, particularly the younger ones, don't commonly value these things. DEI is extremely racist and race needs to stop being talked about.
He didn't say he "won't fly in a plane with a black pilot". He said he would question the pilots qualifications. There are countless examples of professions lowering their standards to help women/minorities pass entrance exams and tests. However uncomfortable his statement was, it's valid.
@@S1X.S1X.S1Xthat’s actually reverse. There are a large percentage of white men that get in because they know someone. Many minority candidates are overqualified. Ketanji Brown Jackson was being questioned about her abilities when in fact she was the most qualified to be a Supreme Court Justice. The numbers are out there, you just have to look and not blindly state things.
Typically you don’t see the pilot who’s flying your plane, do you? I don’t fly a lot, but every time the pilot has been in the cockpit behind a super secure locked door. Unless he’s stalking the plane just to see the flight crew load up before the passengers so he can have racism fear.
I'm white and I've been against DEI for all these reasons. It doesn't make anything better. It makes everyone more divided at worst and at best is a PR buzzword. DEI training is where I have heard the most racist things I've ever heard anyone say. They come in, judge you by the color of your skin and tell everyone they're all racist without even knowing anything at all about your character. I never hear ANY of those things in conversations day to day with anyone. They go looking for racism and they find it. They get a paycheck every time they do. If racism ever went away their DEI training career would be over.
Question: How many black people have you invited home and dined with? The relevance of this question is at the core of inclusion, and the trend to hire people you can ‘connect’ with. When you aren’t familiar with someone non-white, you live under a set of assumptions that are incorrect and often expressed by people who are misguided.
@@shawmeehan7201 This isn't about Diversity. Diversity is great. Equality is great. Equity is a disease. Where DEI has gone wrong and inflicted so much damage is instructing people to hire employees with little to no experience in favor of hitting specific percentage quotas. Broken clocks are right twice a day, and it is in fact insidious. It's not helping people. Every project that replaces senior positions with no-experience newcomers is crashing and burning and then people are blaming diversity instead of enforced outcomes.
What about Hispanic, Asian or Native American progress? Why do we not talk about that? We are a minority too and quite frankly I don’t feel like DEI is doing much for us
There is tons of DEI for native Americans. When it comes to Asians have you seen what percentage of CEOs are executives are Asian? MS, Google, Nvidia… They are overwhelmingly represented. There is also an equal percentage of Hispanics in leadership. The problem is that they look white and nobody thinks they are Hispanic.
Its because black people mainly vote republican so they feel comfortable making us the center of all attacks. Its the same reason they only bring up Chicago and ignore that like St. Louis has more black violence or the top 10 most dangerous cities are mainly in conservative controlled states.
I can honestly say that first year of training I learned more about how to properly address a seemingly trans person if you're not sure. I genuinely needed that LOL. The second year I learned that older people feel some kind of way when younger folks exclude them from certain events or discussions. It made me reconsider how I treat my own parents and other elders. But every year beyond that has just been perfunctory for me. I personally feel we may be over-rotating on the DEI thing a bit, but I also acknowledge that as a cisgender hetero (black) male millennial, no person or group in my life has ever tried to make me feel invisible or invalid so I have no clue how many people it may be truly helping. And for anyone out there who _was_ trying to make me feel invisible or invalid, sorry that I didn't notice.

@lolstalgic960 I'm talking about qualified Black college graduates that don't need DEI to get a job.by the way white people that go to Black colleges are classified as Minorities
That depends on if the job that they DO want is being held ONLY for a particular privilege person. I graduated from a black college, went to work for a Fortune 500 company in Upstate New York. When I moved back to the South and interviewed for this tech job at this particular company I was told that I was Over-qualified! The very next year I received a phone call from a colleague who worked at the very company that denied me. He asked me to submit my resume for the same job at this company that I was rejected from a year prior. He stares that the company was mandated to hire minorities. I reapplied and got the job. I excelled at this company and retired from there after 29 years. My point is that I would not have been given the opportunity if it were not for the Civil Rights bill of 1965.
I think DEI is a genuine issue in the video-game production industry. The intent is certainly well-meaning, but in reality it puts pressure on game development studios to conform to a specific narrative for funding, rather than foster more games that organically seek to represent a diverse perspective.
I find it very strange that when you type in what is the federal D.E.I program? Nothing comes up at all. You would think that somebody made a video somewhere explaining this program. So it's either absolutely no one ever made a video explaining what dei is on youtube, or TH-cam itself is not showing any of those videos. The only thing that comes up is, explaining data, electronic, interchange.
DEI is just a replacement for Affirmative Action. I believe people should be hired on qualifications and promoted on merit, not because of their color, ethnicity or gender. But there should definitely not be any prejudice if it’s done as I described above.
As MLK once said it’s not the color of your skin but the content of your character. Here in Chicago,we suffered through 4 years of Lori Lightfoot, who checked all the diversity boxes, but what we got is a failing casino,and nascar, yippee . Maybe why she didn’t get reelected.
DEI is not working like it should - in 2018 my daughter question on her college application was how she would help with DEI and back in 1980 when I was going to college there was affirmative action. We need to find another path about working together all of us.
As white people who benefit from the labor of exploited minorities in also every field, your daughter should be thinking about how she will be an ally, we all should. The fact that you are helping her and involved in her college journey is a privilege many 18 year olds don’t have…
Modest universal basic income with a bonus added on as a refundable tax credit to incentivize some work, free pre-k and childcare from shortly after birth, and universal health care would go a long way towards putting everyone in a place where they could make what they wanted of themselves. It's a lot less divisive. I wonder if there isn't some middle ground where conservatives would give ground on these if they were told they would never have to hear about DEI, reparations, or any other race-based issues ever again.
White people must be an ally and always ready to serve minorities and be ready to ask for forgiveness for their ancestral sin and you are confused why there's so much backlash against wokeness...
Yeah, DEI certainly worked for NASA sending our first US Astronouts into space, IN FACT, unless DEI Catherine Johnson gave the OK 1:00 on her BRILLIANT mind - there would have not been any US Astronuts in pace. Why, because Astronit John Glenn relied EXCLUSIVELY on DEI Johnson.. lol lol lol
Where I work, we dont just talk about DEI as a race thing. We talk about it from an age aspect, religion and disability etc...the fact is no company will grow if they do not look at other perspectives.
Then your place actually tries to use DEI properly and in those case it can work,albeit as flawed method. the problem is thats not how most place use it.
My neice had her first job interview for teacher last week. She is a 4.0 student, 4 years on the deans list and 4 year college athlete. But she was told even though she aced the interview they were trying to diversify the staff. She wasn't hired soley because she was white
People constantly talk about Santa clause and other mythical figures, yet we ignore the mystery behind why vaseline is magically in everyone's house somehow. I haven't bought valseline or aquaphor in at least a decade and have moved 3 times and I have yet there is always some in our house somehow. I can rely on it... I'm glad Charlamagne pointed this out.
Its so much easier to just get hired and earn a salary than take a chance and start a business. The major issue is that there is the assumption that those who have the power to hire are bias whether consciously or unconsciously. DEI hiring doesn't solve that presumed problem.
@ThinkAboutItSmart easy path will leave you stuck & dependent! Only 3% of Americans are business owners, so we need more chance takers so we are not a country of yes men and consumers, so that's one!

The right wing is against DEI as an IDEA. Whereas you're talking about execution. Of course the corporate overlords only paid lip service to it. But not everyone though. I recruit the best and brightest from all over the world and what matters is diversity of thought. We want people who can think of out the box and that's somewhat correlated to experiential diversity which is correlated to things like economic background, skin colour, etc. The most important feature we've observed is overcoming adversity. I'll take someone who was born far from the baseball field and makes it to first base than someone who was born on third base and hits a home run. The former has more drive.
@@jbagger331 DEI is about considering individuality at the extreme. It's about tailoring the environment for the special egos/minds rather than a cookie cutter one size fits all approach. This is how nature operates: individuality from the bottom up to make up complex systems that have been around for billions of years to produce humans. Humans have deviated from these lessons and their top down systems are observed to be wanting.
I’m gonna be honest with you all here I enjoy seeing black men supporting logical thinking over the black men that are used to race bait and weapons use emotions among Black people. Men like Charlemagne and Stephen A who were outwardly left and are now maybe centrist or right leaning is really refreshing for media and I hope they get paid just as much as the race baiters or more.
Real dei comes from everyone minding there own business and moving on with life. Who cares what you look like. Do your job regardless and there won’t be a problem. Grow up and be an adult stop blaming others for where you are at in life.
The problem with DEI is that it’s a lot easier drag those who excel down rather than to pull those up who are struggling. Just look at what they’re doing Seattle by doing away with classes for gifted students. “Why Seattle Public Schools is closing its highly capable cohort program - Seattle Times”
The real problem is Equity and enforced outcomes. I cannot stress enough to people to search out and read the DEIA Playbook. It mandates specific percentage quotas and also that experience is not even a remote concern. You can see the results yourself, at least in the media industry, by simply comparing the credits of people in pre-2019 projects to those of post 2022-projects, in particular in big franchises. I am not kidding when I say it goes from hundreds of shows, movies, games, etc. as typical credits to less than five.
@@BlazingOwnagerthat’s because the media is replacing humans with Ai. Every personnel list is going to get shorter and shorter, there’s no conspiracy against white people (I am one). Unless you look at the fact that the majority of corporations (the real govt of the U.S.) are run by wealthy white men? So white supremacy and patriarchy also hurts lower income white men? The same as it doesn’t Black men and Hispanic men? Hmm, seems like you’re fighting the wrong enemy…

Empowering black people will take multiple generations. Every time we've made progress tho - there's been extreme backlash: reconstruction after the civil war followed by jim crow; civil rights movement in the 60s followed by pretty extreme racist backlash, late 200s obama election and black lives matter movement, followed by trump and more outright in plain sight racism.
Exactly… we’ve had so many opportunities, and like Black people have all done the work to this point, so literally all we had to do was just do what we said we were gonna do… alas, white fragility has too many edges. They just keep rewriting the same things so the oppressive hand can keep oppressing, and keeping POC’s down. Now we are too far I think and white people have to step up to the plate now and actually do the work (instead of coasting along like we’ve been privileged to do). It drives me crazy because if we could get on an actually equal platform, we all rise up together. I shouldn’t want to scrub my skin off every time the white patriarchy makes a move, but have gone too far down the rabbit hole and I can’t unsee what I’ve seen. It shouldn’t be this way, but when you see the way the power is divided, it makes sense why they are doing it this way… “Prudence indeed hath shewn…that men are more prone to suffer where evils are sufferable, than to abolish the forms to which they have become accustomed.” The Declaration of Independence USA ✊🏻
It's not the people, it's the government... and their divisive lies. They create the problem and then pay themselves and buddies to create the solution. Both sides; whoever is in charge at the time. We've always been their sheep, everyone. George Carlin knew.
If empowering black people comes at the segregation and exclusion of other groups (including white people), it will never amount to anything other than a pipe dream. You don't win, by pulling others down to your level. You win, by raising yourself up to theirs.
He hit the nail on the head about DEI being corporate nonsense. Can't we just judge people based on the content of their character and not the color of their skin?
I gave up on DEI when my current employer made me sit through multiple Fat Acceptance in the Workplace seminars and it was basically an entitled obese woman spending an hour and a half complaining about "thin privilege" and how hard the existence thin people makes the world for "people of size". And this was after several seminars for other groups (black, native American, feminists) that were basically just given a free platform to villainize white people and men the whole time. And then there was that big job fair (forget what it was called) back in December that literally did not allow men entry unless they identify as women and the outrage over that was over men getting in by pretending to be nonbinary and NOT the fact that it was so obviously gender discrimination right out in the open. Imagine if the gender roles in that had been reversed and it was men barring women entry. Heck, womens' groups threw fits until the Boy Scouts of America started allowing girls to join. Meanwhile, you think the Girl Scouts are letting boys in? lol no. I agree with the intention of leveling the playing field, but we have far over corrected on this. It's gotten to the point of feeling like DEI doesn't see white men as people. And that growing sentiment is basically what got Trump elected in 2016. And what makes this extra infuriating is if you're a white male and your criticize this stuff IN ANY WAY, you're branded as r*cist or s*xist or this-phobic or that-phobic. (Edit) Or people will gaslight you, virtue signal and blindly invalidate your experiences. Like yeah, the idiots on Faux are idiots. Obviously what they're doing is just gaslighting and flinging BS. But there are some actual problems with DEI and affirmative action that need to be acknowledged
@@gothpunkboy89 Nice quote, but that's not equality and it's not looking for equality. It's not even being hidden and it's right in their own material. Equity is not the same thing as Equality btw. There is a world of difference between equal opportunity and equal outcomes..
@@Nebby_99 Look who's talking. Congratulations on not only hearing what you want to hear and missing my point entirely, but also contributing to proving it
I don't care what color or ethnicity that you are. I just want the most qualified to be on the job especially if you are in charge of people's lives like pilots.
‘I’m color blind’ isn’t a flex though. It’s telling marginalized people that just because you haven’t experienced something, what they’re going through doesn’t really matter - get over it! A bunch of BS. Think again…
When multiple candidates are qualified, who decides which candidate is "most" qualified? People with biases, hence mostly white pilots. No one is hiring pilots who can't fly, at least not for the sake of DEI. DEI is [meant to be] a crude correction for those biases, within a pool of qualified candidates.
@@Nebby_99 It turned into quota system that hires people based on race because you need certain % of minorities often without bothering with qualifications. The problem is that basically its not acting like its supposed to act.
So true! DARE made me think "no way its like THAT". Then when i did it and it wasnt, it made my ad*iction worse. I have waited so long to hear a word for it: Backlash Effect. THAAANK YOU.
I thought DARE was so BS that I actually got detention for taunting the cop about it (rural white kid so I was otherwise fine). Didn't do any drugs though. Glad to see time has proved me right.
If i had a minority pilot i would think that they are probably more qualified cuz they had to work harder to get where they are. As a female engineer, i see this all the time.
I would simply hope that the best person was put in the best position, especially since it involves the lives and safety of so many people. Anything else is secondary.
Did you guys notice on that clip of Fox news showing DEI meanings, that they spelled "Insidious" as "INVIDIOUS"?

All white people on this committee even though they have people of all cultures. They feel like they can just ask them to join their team, That is tokenism. All they can do is invite.

When I was in the military, I had to work with people from all walks of life and from all sectors of America.

Military readiness depended on it. I cannot comment on corporate issues, but in the military it was very important.
The problem is thanks to CRT (which is not 'real history'), the current line of thinking is color blindness is bad. This has caused a push for segregation to come back as a positive, not a negative.

Standards aren’t being lowered with DEI. They were lower BEFORE DEI, because it was assumed that white males were always the best candidates for studies or jobs.
@@naylas3908 when you eliminate standardized test, scores for college entrance, that’s lowering standards. When you lower the weight that firefighter recruits need to drag to be able to hire females, that’s lowering standards. When you extend time limits on physical agility exams for police recruits, that’s lowering standards. When you allow military recruits to opt out of physical training, that’s lowering standards.
In every industry, there has been a lowering of standards in the last five years in a blatant attempt to hire DEI.
You are either ignorant if you do not see it, or lying if you deny it.
Or you know, the standards were lowered for police officers because most of America is obese and you need to hire police officers?
And females obviously can’t lift the same as men, but women should be allowed to be firefighters?
And the military is experiencing a shortage of recruits right now, so they are lowering the standards to hire more people.
You know you could advocate for increasing the STANDARD of living for poor Americans, black and white, so they can meet the standards healthier wealthier Americans have set and been born into. Because nepotism ignores standards, and I’m sure you know that’s a problem.

Its a highly flawed concept because equity and equality are not the same thing and equity is nothing but dangerous and none of you have any clue what it actually even requires.

But, just to be clear, that means you disagree with DEI. DEI actively promotes hiring based on identity over merit --- the theory being that doing so is necessary to undo the injustices of the past. Proponents of DEI like to pretend this isn't what DEI is, but to think otherwise is to be willfully blind to the _obvious_ results of giving corporations incentives to diversify their workforce: Such incentives necessarily compete with incentives like "talent" and "capability".

Yes, you are a leader. It takes courage to rock the Daily Show and you are discussing important societal issues.
Merit should be the first contender for hiring practices. You would be a fool to disagree.
When you then have two people with the same merit, then diversity can be quite smart, but dont focus on skin color, focus on life experiences where diversity really comes into play.

In my building, you can probably find every ethnic group. I was told by a co worker that back in the 90's he estimated the workforce in the building was around 80% white. Based on my observation, I estimate in 2025, the workforce is now 15% white and the 85% consist of non white people. It looks better that way. White people are not the only ones existing. Their not the only ones with competence for a job. The deputy commissioner on my floor is a black man. The commissioner on the fifteenth floor is Indian. The chief of staff on the 19th floor is Puerto Rican. The chief of staff on the 14th floor is Asian. The way I see it, if a white person is bellyaching about DEI because a non white person got the job or promotion, oh well, that's just the way it is.
@@nyc4life448Who cares if they are all white,black,asian or trans. All that matters who is the best candidate for the position. To rely on DEI makes it sound you don't have any faith in minorities abilities. If you don't why should anyone else?
Then they will just lie and say the white applicants are more qualified just like they say Caitlin Clark is the best when we all know she isn’t. The best will always be white when the people who are hiring are white

I’m a democrat but I’m tired of people boycotting everything because of DEI. No matter what race and gender you have, still be qualified for a position.
NOPE CORPORATIONS ARE NOW FREE TO DISCRIMINATE AGAINST PEOPLE OF COLOR LIKE THEY DID IN THE PAST. LOOK UP AMERICAN HISTORY 🙁 NO BLACKS NEED APPLY 😕
DEI was about hiring qualified people that aren’t white we all need jobs
I’d like to think that Charlamagne seems to not like fake DEI? Meaning companies basically promoting Diversity for the appearance of it, pretending they are inclusive but don’t have any minority executives. He doesn’t seem to have an issue with actually being diverse, equal, or inclusive of everyone. I don’t agree with some of his other stances, or how he approached the convo with Nikki Haley, but he’s right about that. However, calling out things like this without providing some potential viable alternative feels weird.
It's corporate window dressings. Instead of fighting for actual income inequality, which most inequality stems from, they 'throw a bone' to progressive / lefists ideals and hope you don't pay attention to the actual roots of the problem.
He did. He said real DEI change is only going to come from more actual black people in leadership, not corporate rubber stamping.
@Suren0 The door has to be opened somehow. Better to exist within the organization and slowly integrate change.

@@kwmcgrealCan't just get into management because of race. They have to earn their positions like anybody else. Valuing education and hard work is the key.

DEI is extremely racist and race needs to stop being talked about.
The guy that won’t fly in a plane with a black pilot has obviously not left Murica and that in itself is sad.😂😂😂😂😂
That's Charlie Kirk. He should leave the US, and never return.
He didn't say he "won't fly in a plane with a black pilot". He said he would question the pilots qualifications. There are countless examples of professions lowering their standards to help women/minorities pass entrance exams and tests. However uncomfortable his statement was, it's valid.
@@S1X.S1X.S1Xthat’s actually reverse. There are a large percentage of white men that get in because they know someone. Many minority candidates are overqualified.

Typically you don’t see the pilot who’s flying your plane, do you? I don’t fly a lot, but every time the pilot has been in the cockpit behind a super secure locked door. Unless he’s stalking the plane just to see the flight crew load up before the passengers so he can have racism fear.
I'm white and I've been against DEI for all these reasons. It doesn't make anything better. It makes everyone more divided at worst and at best is a PR buzzword. DEI training is where I have heard the most racist things I've ever heard anyone say. They come in, judge you by the color of your skin and tell everyone they're all racist without even knowing anything at all about your character. I never hear ANY of those things in conversations day to day with anyone. They go looking for racism and they find it. They get a paycheck every time they do. If racism ever went away their DEI training career would be over.
Racism is not going away because white people created American racism and maintain it.

Question: How many black people have you invited home and dined with?
The relevance of this question is at the core of inclusion, and the trend to hire people you can ‘connect’ with.
When you aren’t familiar with someone non-white, you live under a set of assumptions that are incorrect and often expressed by people who are misguided.
@@shawmeehan7201 This isn't about Diversity. Diversity is great. Equality is great. Equity is a disease. Where DEI has gone wrong and inflicted so much damage is instructing people to hire employees with little to no experience in favor of hitting specific percentage quotas. Broken clocks are right twice a day, and it is in fact insidious. It's not helping people. Every project that replaces senior positions with no-experience newcomers is crashing and burning and then people are blaming diversity instead of enforced outcomes.
@@BlazingOwnagersaying equity is a disease is wild.
That was an excellent segment!
What about Hispanic, Asian or Native American progress? Why do we not talk about that? We are a minority too and quite frankly I don’t feel like DEI is doing much for us
There is tons of DEI for native Americans. When it comes to Asians have you seen what percentage of CEOs are executives are Asian? MS, Google, Nvidia… They are overwhelmingly represented. There is also an equal percentage of Hispanics in leadership. The problem is that they look white and nobody thinks they are Hispanic.
It includes all minorities even disabled people. And Hispanic is included so are Asians. Stop watching FOX.
The squeaky wheel gets the oil.
Thats because DEI has nothing to do with diversity its about a hand out for blacks.
Its because black people mainly vote republican so they feel comfortable making us the center of all attacks. Its the same reason they only bring up Chicago and ignore that like St. Louis has more black violence or the top 10 most dangerous cities are mainly in conservative controlled states.

DEI is just another way for people to call me the N-word to my face lol.
Anyone taking dei jobs is a n word.
I can honestly say that first year of training I learned more about how to properly address a seemingly trans person if you're not sure. I genuinely needed that LOL. The second year I learned that older people feel some kind of way when younger folks exclude them from certain events or discussions. It made me reconsider how I treat my own parents and other elders. But every year beyond that has just been perfunctory for me. I personally feel we may be over-rotating on the DEI thing a bit, but I also acknowledge that as a cisgender hetero (black) male millennial, no person or group in my life has ever tried to make me feel invisible or invalid so I have no clue how many people it may be truly helping.
And for anyone out there who _was_ trying to make me feel invisible or invalid, sorry that I didn't notice.
As a black man all I got out of your post is that you are brainwashed into thinking of people as groups and not individuals. The progressive plan to destroy MLK and equality is nearing completion.

There are 100 Black colleges that graduate thousands of African Americans every year and they don't need DEI to get a job
“they have their own colleges” is a crazy take
@jrelllll they don't need DEI and most never heard of it
Okay but how many Caucasians graduate from those black colleges?
@lolstalgic960 I'm talking about qualified Black college graduates that don't need DEI to get a job.by the way white people that go to Black colleges are classified as Minorities
That depends on if the job that they DO want is being held ONLY for a particular privilege person. I graduated from a black college, went to work for a Fortune 500 company in Upstate New York. When I moved back to the South and interviewed for this tech job at this particular company I was told that I was Over-qualified! The very next year I received a phone call from a colleague who worked at the very company that denied me. He asked me to submit my resume for the same job at this company that I was rejected from a year prior. He stares that the company was mandated to hire minorities. I reapplied and got the job. I excelled at this company and retired from there after 29 years. My point is that I would not have been given the opportunity if it were not for the Civil Rights bill of 1965.
I think DEI is a genuine issue in the video-game production industry. The intent is certainly well-meaning, but in reality it puts pressure on game development studios to conform to a specific narrative for funding, rather than foster more games that organically seek to represent a diverse perspective.
Wow. I thought DEI was "Dale Earnhardt Incorporated."
🤣🤣🤣
They should discriminate based on brain sanity not color
Excellent! Thanks.
I find it very strange that when you type in what is the federal D.E.I program?
Nothing comes up at all. You would think that somebody made a video somewhere explaining this program.
So it's either absolutely no one ever made a video explaining what dei is on youtube, or TH-cam itself is not showing any of those videos. The only thing that comes up is, explaining data, electronic, interchange.
DEI is just a replacement for Affirmative Action. I believe people should be hired on qualifications and promoted on merit, not because of their color, ethnicity or gender. But there should definitely not be any prejudice if it’s done as I described above.
As MLK once said it’s not the color of your skin but the content of your character. Here in Chicago,we suffered through 4 years of Lori Lightfoot, who checked all the diversity boxes, but what we got is a failing casino,and nascar, yippee . Maybe why she didn’t get reelected.
DEI is not working like it should - in 2018 my daughter question on her college application was how she would help with DEI and back in 1980 when I was going to college there was affirmative action. We need to find another path about working together all of us.
As white people who benefit from the labor of exploited minorities in also every field, your daughter should be thinking about how she will be an ally, we all should. The fact that you are helping her and involved in her college journey is a privilege many 18 year olds don’t have…
Modest universal basic income with a bonus added on as a refundable tax credit to incentivize some work, free pre-k and childcare from shortly after birth, and universal health care would go a long way towards putting everyone in a place where they could make what they wanted of themselves. It's a lot less divisive. I wonder if there isn't some middle ground where conservatives would give ground on these if they were told they would never have to hear about DEI, reparations, or any other race-based issues ever again.
@@soulfulgardener why would you be an ally to activists who openly hate you
Yes, times have changed as the population has turned over. I expect that people will tire of DEI, and there will be a new thing in 30-50 years.
White people must be an ally and always ready to serve minorities and be ready to ask for forgiveness for their ancestral sin and you are confused why there's so much backlash against wokeness...
Yeah, DEI certainly worked for NASA sending our first US Astronouts into space, IN FACT, unless DEI Catherine Johnson gave the OK 1:00 on her BRILLIANT mind - there would have not been any US Astronuts in pace. Why, because Astronit John Glenn relied EXCLUSIVELY on DEI Johnson.. lol lol lol
We don’t need DEI, we need equal opportunity
Where I work, we dont just talk about DEI as a race thing. We talk about it from an age aspect, religion and disability etc...the fact is no company will grow if they do not look at other perspectives.

Instead of trying to be a CEO how about building & owning a company and hire who ever you want!!
Its so much easier to just get hired and earn a salary than take a chance and start a business. The major issue is that there is the assumption that those who have the power to hire are bias whether consciously or unconsciously. DEI hiring doesn't solve that presumed problem.
@ThinkAboutItSmart easy path will leave you stuck & dependent! Only 3% of Americans are business owners, so we need more chance takers so we are not a country of yes men and consumers, so that's one!

The right wing is against DEI as an IDEA. Whereas you're talking about execution. Of course the corporate overlords only paid lip service to it. But not everyone though. I recruit the best and brightest from all over the world and what matters is diversity of thought. We want people who can think of out the box and that's somewhat correlated to experiential diversity which is correlated to things like economic background, skin colour, etc. The most important feature we've observed is overcoming adversity. I'll take someone who was born far from the baseball field and makes it to first base than someone who was born on third base and hits a home run. The former has more drive.
The idea is flawed because ignoring individuality never works and it always ends very badly.
@@jbagger331 DEI is about considering individuality at the extreme. It's about tailoring the environment for the special egos/minds rather than a cookie cutter one size fits all approach. This is how nature operates: individuality from the bottom up to make up complex systems that have been around for billions of years to produce humans. Humans have deviated from these lessons and their top down systems are observed to be wanting.
I’m gonna be honest with you all here I enjoy seeing black men supporting logical thinking over the black men that are used to race bait and weapons use emotions among Black people. Men like Charlemagne and Stephen A who were outwardly left and are now maybe centrist or right leaning is really refreshing for media and I hope they get paid just as much as the race baiters or more.
They are self made personalities they don’t have to worry about being hired
Dei is like harassment training for racism
Real dei comes from everyone minding there own business and moving on with life. Who cares what you look like. Do your job regardless and there won’t be a problem. Grow up and be an adult stop blaming others for where you are at in life.
I like the various hosts rotating through the daily show. I’ve been introduced to some pretty funny new talent.
The problem with DEI is that it’s a lot easier drag those who excel down rather than to pull those up who are struggling. Just look at what they’re doing Seattle by doing away with classes for gifted students.
“Why Seattle Public Schools is closing its highly capable cohort program - Seattle Times”
The real problem is Equity and enforced outcomes. I cannot stress enough to people to search out and read the DEIA Playbook. It mandates specific percentage quotas and also that experience is not even a remote concern. You can see the results yourself, at least in the media industry, by simply comparing the credits of people in pre-2019 projects to those of post 2022-projects, in particular in big franchises. I am not kidding when I say it goes from hundreds of shows, movies, games, etc. as typical credits to less than five.
@@BlazingOwnagerthat’s because the media is replacing humans with Ai. Every personnel list is going to get shorter and shorter, there’s no conspiracy against white people (I am one).

Empowering black people will take multiple generations. Every time we've made progress tho - there's been extreme backlash: reconstruction after the civil war followed by jim crow; civil rights movement in the 60s followed by pretty extreme racist backlash, late 200s obama election and black lives matter movement, followed by trump and more outright in plain sight racism.
Exactly… we’ve had so many opportunities, and like Black people have all done the work to this point, so literally all we had to do was just do what we said we were gonna do… alas, white fragility has too many edges. They just keep rewriting the same things so the oppressive hand can keep oppressing, and keeping POC’s down. Now we are too far I think and white people have to step up to the plate now and actually do the work (instead of coasting along like we’ve been privileged to do). It drives me crazy because if we could get on an actually equal platform, we all rise up together. I shouldn’t want to scrub my skin off every time the white patriarchy makes a move, but have gone too far down the rabbit hole and I can’t unsee what I’ve seen. It shouldn’t be this way, but when you see the way the power is divided, it makes sense why they are doing it this way…

Char is the only Daily Show host I've never liked, hes not suited for this show at all.
He shouldn't be reporting on this particular subject? Why?
I gave up on DEI when my current employer made me sit through multiple Fat Acceptance in the Workplace seminars and it was basically an entitled obese woman spending an hour and a half complaining about "thin privilege" and how hard the existence thin people makes the world for "people of size". And this was after several seminars for other groups (black, native American, feminists) that were basically just given a free platform to villainize white people and men the whole time. And then there was that big job fair (forget what it was called) back in December that literally did not allow men entry unless they identify as women and the outrage over that was over men getting in by pretending to be nonbinary and NOT the fact that it was so obviously gender discrimination right out in the open. Imagine if the gender roles in that had been reversed and it was men barring women entry. Heck, womens' groups threw fits until the Boy Scouts of America started allowing girls to join. Meanwhile, you think the Girl Scouts are letting boys in? lol no. I agree with the intention of leveling the playing field, but we have far over corrected on this. It's gotten to the point of feeling like DEI doesn't see white men as people. And that growing sentiment is basically what got Trump elected in 2016.
And what makes this extra infuriating is if you're a white male and your criticize this stuff IN ANY WAY, you're branded as r*cist or s*xist or this-phobic or that-phobic. (Edit) Or people will gaslight you, virtue signal and blindly invalidate your experiences. Like yeah, the idiots on Faux are idiots. Obviously what they're doing is just gaslighting and flinging BS.

When multiple candidates are qualified, who decides which candidate is "most" qualified? People with biases, hence mostly white pilots.
