The term "DEI" is so vague. I've asked people what they think it means and the examples range from very simple concepts to scenarios I don't think ever existed / could exist. Accordingly when an administration goes on a rant / threatens people's jobs or funding people cast the net so wide just to CYA, that it makes no sense. This whole situation seems like your standard upper management initiative that is just damaging to every day operations.
