DEI, Is Trump's New Code For Spic, Whore, Nigger & Fag!
The right is loving the ethnic & gender cleansing Musk is performing on the US government.
Musk, a classic rightwing corporate misogynist, is celebrating ruining lives of merit based hires that happen to represent more of the real demographics of America than have been hired in the past. Biden introduced greater hires as the Biden campaign coopted Black Lives matter for the election, so he had to change his ways and hire more qualified blacks, Latinos, women and LGBTQ. Russia might have banned LGBTQ propaganda from public spaces but hasn’t purged the government of LGBTQ and in fact are still hiring LGBTQ. Musk is violating the civil rights of legitimate hires because of skin colour and sexual orientation. That is against the law. Just because Trump has coded the words Spic, Whore, Nigger and Fag as “DEI”, he is still yelling Spic, Whore, Nigger and Fag out loud and in public.
Just because the right stopped using the word Spic to describe Mexicans and started calling them illegal aliens, they are still yelling ”Get those Spics out of my country” which really belongs to First Nations Tribes of Turtle Island. Trump is already claiming Native Americans are not citizens and has attempted to deport some to Mexico but to purge the government the way Trump and Musk are doing, it will rack up billions in legal fees as Musk, Trump and the federal government are going to be sued by every one of Musk’s fires, for wrongful dismissal. I would love to see the Supreme Court give the American public the licence to violently over throw the rightwing’s slow and sleazy government coup, to take over of the Supreme Court and the other three branches of government, the White House, Congress and the Pentagon, by ruling the Musk and Trump’s Nazi style purge of the government is constitutional. What Trump and Musk are really purging is the equal protection clause that was not even considered when Trump and Bush’s Supreme Court struck down Roe vs. Wade, turning American women back into chattel.
The right wing practice of breaking government and then saying, look the government is broken, attempting to blame it on the other guys, is in full swing but as I suspected, the Judges are chiming in and when they do, Trump seems to obey but verification that Trump is complying with court orders, is a must. If a Reagan appointed judge has stood in Trump’s way, it’s only a matter of time before a billion dollars in legal fees, will be spent by Musk and Trump’s government lawyers, who will be deeply embarrassed to claim DEI hires were not based on merit but race and gender. When Reagan decided to move federal jobs out of DC to bleach the colour of the skin of federal workers into West Virginia crackers, he devastated the DC economy and impoverish the Black and Latino communities in Washington DC. The crazy idiots have a plan but it does not jibe with the majority of Americans and the courts. It is likely that Trump will end up in prison or impeached or both, for his racist and misogynist purge of the US government. Even conservative judges won’t be able to keep America’s image world wide, from being left in tatters by Trump.
Regardless, Trump is using “DEI” as code for Spic, Whore, Nigger and Fag and Musk is exactly the right kind of corporate misogynist, in Trump’s mind, to be the instrument of Trump’s racist and misogynist purge. Instead of yelling “A Dyke killed those world class Russian figure skaters!” Trump yells DEI caused the plane crash in the Potomac, instead of blaming congress for granting more flight paths, constantly increasing air traffic over the Potomac, so the Washington elite can get out of DC faster, at the Reagan air port, verses the Dulles air port. There have been dozens of near misses in the past, with military and civilian air craft since the Reagan urban airport was built and the congressional increases in flight paths were mandated. The Irony is, Reagan fired all the air traffic controllers when they went on strike over working conditions and nothing much has improved since Reagan. Reagan instituted a permanent shortage of air traffic controllers but Trump wants to blame the Dyke. Reagan’s chickens have come home to roost on Trump’s head.
The Right had been using this since Trump's first stay in the Awful Office. Every accident or incident that had happened since 2018 had been blamed on DEI. This is a problem. The Far Right and White Supremacist corrupted DEI as they have Woke, Antifa, Liberal, CRT and a Woman in a man's job. The Republicans and Far Right are masters at corrupting words.
I'll tell you one thing, I got my start in working in a man's job as a Pipefitter on Submarines in 1972. The abuse I and the other 2 women out of 40,000 men took from the boys there and their associated women was not pretty and often dangerous, a lot of threats. Sometimes I had to have an escort to the Sub or anywhere in the yard because of a threat the upper echelon took seriously. The women outside the yard hated us, often because they were insecure.
It was the older experienced men in the yard that had our backs. They didn't care who was doing the job as long as a person could do the job. The boys that started at the same time, were whiny and didn't want to work. They didn't think they had to or had to prove themselves capable. They thought White privilege would see them through.
My brother owns a painting business in CA and hired Latino's, legal or not. He thought at one point that he was being to judgemental of white boys and hired some. Same thing, they thought that should start at a higher pay rate and didn't need to do a good job... White privilege again. Of course, they quit, as the ones that started with me in 1972 did, because my brother wanted the same from them as the Latino's.
Anyway, this is where the White men want the country to go. It's not about meritocracy at all. It's about getting rid of competition. Their kind of country would underperform in quality and efficiency, not better.
