DEI Can Only Exist in a Noncompetitive Environment
[American Thinker] Harvard President Claudine Gay’s recent testimony before the U.S. Congress and subsequent exposure of her academic history have revealed much about the true nature and purpose of the Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion (DEI) ideology.

The most significant "A-ha!" moment from le affair Gay is that DEI only "works" in noncompetitive environments such as government and academia. The principles of "diversity" and "equity" implicitly assume that entities and organizations will continue along their current trajectory regardless of who’s in charge. DEI discounts merit, ability, and leadership and assumes as a matter of ideological gospel that "diversity" will more than make up for their loss.

And although this might be true in glacial bureaucracies at Harvard University, the U.S. Department of Education, or Los Angeles City Hall where funding rolls in at the start of every fiscal year and there is virtually no accountability for poor performance, DEI cannot survive in competitive environments where outcomes truly matter.

#1 DEI cannot survive in competitive environments where outcomes truly matter.

"Government and academia"....thrive in process driven environments.

#3 It's about enforced mediocrity at all levels. Leftist worship the "lowest common denominator."

Quite worrying when you need a lawyer, financial expert or physician.
