It does when capable people are bing pushed aside because they are the wrong sex/colour/religion/socio-economic group / tribe, whatever. What's the point in trying if you aren't going to be considered anyway?

Of course it does. Every mediocre white man in charge of anything. From trump, vance, musk, hegseth and the rest of the mal- administration down to the repug idiots on the county fiscal court.

Diversity is America’s strength! Look what a homogenous Rich White Christian right wing with a hive mind mentality has done to us. 🤦🏻‍♂️🚩🚩🚩🚩🚩🚩🚩🚩🚩🚩

Depends on whether diverse folks engage in activities that spread diseases. Beef eaters spread mad cow disease for a while until smart scientists figured out transmission method. Long distance truck drivers spread HIV in some countries. Rural folks spread swine flu. Typhoid Mary was infamous.

Right you are - nice shirt! Diversity strengthens the country - as individuals and as a nation we grow stronger, richer both as people and monetarily, the more inclusive we are - hate is destructive - keeping certain people down is destructive AS DESTRUCTIVE TO THE OPPRESSORS AS TO THE VICTIMS

Not actually true. It hurts underqualified white males who would otherwise beat out better qualfied candidates. But then, that's a good thing.

False. Diversity hurts those whose skills are too weak to compete unless they can be given preference based on superfluous factors such as skin color. It would be more accurate to say "diversity hurts no one worth caring about".

Diversity, the radical idea that America might actually benefit from having people who aren’t identical, think differently, and bring something new to the table. Terrifying stuff. Next thing you know, we’ll realize different perspectives are actually useful. How revolutionary.☮️🇺🇸🇨🇦

Does it take discomfort, time & effort? Yes, *and* people can grow into the joys of working together and overcoming. The alternative is those without power (continuing) carrying ALL the downsides. Someone suddenly experiencing downsides have probably been holding all the privileges

When you were incredibly insecure and unwilling to do the work that those in the diversity column are willing to do and have to do just to be considered you could begin to understand why you know they just don’t want any of the competition

Diversity can be challenging It can be hard to take in perspectives that are different But it’s a challenge that makes us stronger, better, more resilient, more creative I don’t understand how people who believe in economic competition don’t also believe in diversity It’s the same thing

Right wing Star Trek "fans" claiming the franchise has "gone woke" need to be reminded of the Vulcan philosophy IDIC, "infinite DIVERSITY in infinite combinations". Star Trek, not to mention other sci fi, has ALWAYS been "woke".
