No blame there at all. Seems you’re just looking for a fight by selectively quoting a few words here and there instead of reading things in context. At no time did I single out a group or say anything that would be construed as disrespectful. People were asking “why” would there be such a backlash and I outlined the reasons for such broad perceptions and feelings toward the issue.
The lack of “J” is because the places where I’ve been with programs were just identified as DE&I. Nothing intentional so stop clutching your pearls so tightly.
It’s funny, but we’re on the same side of this issue, just wanting different mechanisms to be employed so all people can achieve the same status. I appreciate your position but recognize there is a large portion of the population who don’t and you have to sway them to end the hate once and for all. Forcing something on them is a sure loss strategy.
