> They also tend to push messaging that is not broadly accepted, even by the communities they claim to be helping. For example DEI had a big push on saying the word “Latino” was offensive and insisted people must say “Latinx.” Many Lantinos in companies were outraged and pointed out that in fact this concept of “Latinx” can in fact be extremely offensive to those it’s attempting to describe. For one, it’s suggesting that a gendered language is somehow inferior and must be corrected. IMHO, in almost all cases, DEI isn't about helping anyone, except white liberals who feel guilt they want assuaged. The Latinx example you cite is nice example of the contradictions of DEI: you can't actually "include" everyone without dominating them (colonizing?) and forcing a new identity on them, because different groups have mutually exclusive aspects of their identities.
