DEI during hiring is things like:
- Making sure job postings are put up in spaces where minority populations have a similar chance to see them as majority populations. I.e. post at HBCU and Women's colleges' job boards, not just at the hiring manager's alma mater.
- Making sure the application portal is accessible to those with disabilities
DEI during employment is things like:
- continuing unconscious bias training
- educating about the existence of diverse backgrounds and how that can benefit your team
- encouraging communication among your team members about how they approach problems, overcome obstacles, and achieve results
DEI is not (though the right commonly likes to use it this way):
- A slur for non-white male presenting people
- A diversity hire
- A socially acceptable term in lieu of the n-word
- Hiding migrants
- Feeding the poor
- Kicking the police off someone they're choking out
To the small handful of socially liberal and fiscally conservative folks that found this thread let me ask a few questions:
- Does it make more fiscal sense to build a chemical treatment plant next to a neighborhood of people that can afford lawyers or a neighborhood of those that can't?
- What is the social makeup of each of those neighborhoods?
- How did that social makeup come to be?
The hatred of property tax really pisses me off.
I have a mortgage on the house in which I reside. I have to pay property tax on the house in which I reside. My annual property taxes are less than half the minimum monthly payment for my mortgage. If I can afford my monthly payment I can afford my taxes. If I can't afford my monthly payment the taxes aren't the problem.
And what do I actually get for that less than half a monthly mortgage payment in annual taxes?
- 2 large parks with miles of walking paths, a playground, a basketball and a soccer court, all maintained and within 2 blocks
- maintained roads to my house that are cleaned regularly
- decent schools nearby
Yes, I recognize I got lucky and am privileged enough to have, not just stable housing, but that which I "own," but that just makes my distaste of the hatred of property taxes all the greater.
They don't pay attention to the world around them.
Yeah, it's not nearly as orange as one would expect. It's certainly not a perfect reproduction, but if anything it actually does him more favors than not.
AOC was at a rally where someone else said to bring out the guillotines therefore AOC is a terrorist for her "abominable speech?"
Which party actually brought out a guillotine?
If you're gonna be sent to an intermittent camp as a terrorist for torching a car what onus is there to just stick to the car?
They didn't really think this one through, did they?
If New Zealand were to start bombing raids, install boots on the ground, and claim for themselves as their God given sovereign lands the conflicted area of Sudan would we also say that Sudan started it?
These the same guy's that let the Nazis have a rally?
But a shirt that says "Ban Dolan" is "offensive in nature" and makes "threats against an MSG executive?"
