I support DEI initiatives in general and think they’re important. But please educate yourself about the situation at the FAA. There’s a failure mode that DEI opponents point to regarding deprioritizing actual talent for the sake of the DEI goals. This failure mode is often a red herring because the two goals aren’t mutually exclusive (find talent, build a diverse team). But the FAA by many accounts did the thing people were worried about. This is not an indictment of DEI efforts in general, but is an issue with a specific implementation.
