Lauren Boebert called "racist" for saying Karine Jean-Pierre is a "DEI hire"

Jump

  • I just was being lazy and didn't type the whole "DEI hire". But I've meant it.

    I think, being called "DEI hired" is not necessarily racism but a common devaluation / belittlement.

  • Yes. I also despise Boebert and Putin fyi :)

  • Ok.

    It appears that Boebert has said that about a particular women person of colour, not all of them.
    So I wouldn't necessarily imply racism here. Common devaluation - sure.

    Is that better?

    P.S. My first language is Russian, and we usually refer to a 3rd person by it's gender. That's why I defaulted with "woman" instead of more broad "person".

  • DEI is not racism (in theory). It's a tool to fight one (in theory).

  • It's devaluing, because Boebert named diversity as a reason to hire Karine, not her professional qualities.

  • It's a devaluing act, yes, but how is it racist?

    That's a speculation, thought.
