I fear the current "Diversity" zeitgeist has become a shakedown scam by so called experts to line their pockets based on the threat of bad PR. In my experience these "experts" and "founders" advice on attaining "diversity" boils down to excluding technically competent but "over-representitive" groups in favor of other "under-represented" groups within the hiring process. The members of these "over-represented" groups, i.e. Caucasian and North Asian males of American origin, become the hires of last resort. In effect a quota system is established in order demonstrate the desired proportions of "under-represented" groups within a role are being achieved thus preventing negative PR. Parallel with exclusionary hiring policies a propaganda campaign within a organization must be waged in order to brow beat members of the "over-represented" groups into accepting that such exclusionary policies are necessary and just in order to achieve some nebulous moralistic goal as defined by the "diversity" "experts" and "founders". From said propaganda the members of the "over-represented" groups must learn to accept and fulfill the role "ally" toward all members of the designated "under-represented" groups. This role can be simplified into "supporter of exclusionary policies of which I'm the target". Mind you the "experts" and "founders" advocate for "diversity" and "inclusion" only within job roles that are typically male dominated and techincally oriented. The exclusionary hiring policies and propaganda campaigns never include increasing "diversity" within female dominated roles, e.g. HR, Recruiting, etc., or non-techincal roles, e.g. Custodial, Facilities, Security, Transportation, etc. This is so because the threat of bad PR doesn't hold much weight when certain target groups are not members of the "over-represented" group within the role. Ultimately, I fear the current methods of addressing the "diversity" issue are counterproductive, hypocritical, and morally prescriptive in the same ways that other zeitgeist initiated crusades have been in recent history, e.g. "War on Drugs".
