Racist conservative (sorry I repeat myself) screeching DEI when DEI isn't involved at all. Continuing with the same tradition as Lee Atwater described. From forced bussing to states rights to woke to CRT and now to DEI, it's all just code for the racial slurs they wish they could still say.
Hard to read this as anything but an attempt at resegregation, right?
I haven't heard DEI until a day or two ago, and now it seems constant. Is this the new "woke" term used to blame everything you don't like on?
- It’s been a normal thing for maybe a decade now, but yeah ig when people got tired of hearing “woke,” the right went after DEI
  
  DEI as a term is probably at least that old. It started taking off as a "progressive" corporate training term after being watered down a bit about 4 or 5 years ago. And about a year ago, conservatives got their mitts on the term as another hot-swappable slur against anything that has even a LaCroix level hint of progressivism/leftism.
- It's the new n-word for the righties who are afraid to use the actual n-word.
Oh great, another stupid fucking empty signifier people know nothing about other than to be afraid of this. Are they really going to get away with another CRT like thing?
- Took me a minute to figure out why you were talking about TVs, but yes, this is becoming the new "woke" or "critical race theory"
Wouldn't be Missouri if the government representatives there weren't racist to fucking high hell.
OH LOOK KIDS ANOTHER BOOGIEMAN TERM
Missouri. I mean, c'mon. We all know.
In the video, a Black female teen can be seen repeatedly slamming the head of a white female teen into the pavement, which resulted in her being hospitalized with severe head injuries.
Yeah dude, just a "viral fight." 🙄 totally not attempted murder or anything.
- Crazy how you can’t get the whole story from just the headline isn’t it?
  It’s worth noting the white teen instigated the fight. Is lethal force in self defense only ok if a gun is used?
  
  Did you watch the “fight”? The “instigator” goes down almost immediately and then starts getting her head smashed into the pavement. All I’m saying is, from watching the video, the “fight” ends as soon as it starts and then turns into pounding someone’s head onto pavement and then a brawl while they lay motionless on the ground with the occasional twitch and groan. Not saying anyone is in the right anywhere in this situation. But I would argue things very quickly leave the realm of reasonable self defense in the video.
