The tech industry knows they are far behind on the DEI metrics and they overcompensate playing this culture wars chess move where they make everyone sick of hearing them virtue signaling about diversity so that they can't be questioned. They loose even when compared to "conservative" institutions. It's not only the military, in San Francisco the police department is more diverse than Lyft, Uber, Google. The club I go shooting to in Richmond has more black people on a weekend than what I've ever seen inside the same room at Lyft. Richmond is a moderate democrat city where everyone that doesn't work for the government works for Chevron.
Until I started shooting I think I had only interacted with three black people in the Bay Area. One from work, one from co-living and another one that hangs out with a crew I party with. Of course all those circles lean tech-heavy. First "conservative" thing I dare do and there's loads of latinos and black people and we are all confused as fuck as to where all the evil white people we keep on reading about actually are.
