Does DEI Create Equity or Institutionalize Racism?

You call DEI a remedy? It's a poison dressed as medicine. The moment you sort people by skin color, you're not fighting racism—you're institutionalizing it. You claim to want a level playing field, but you're building a new set of rules that discriminate against white men by default. That's not equity; that's revenge. And revenge is a terrible foundation for policy. The 'systemic racism' you rail against was real decades ago, but today's America is not your grandfather's America. Redlining is illegal, Jim Crow is dead, and the Supreme Court has already struck down affirmative action. Yet you cling to these ghosts to justify your modern-day segregation. You call my 'colorblindness' a lie, but it's the only honest stance. When you demand a 'diverse' candidate, you're admitting you don't trust a Black person to get a job on merit. You're saying they need a handicap. That's not empowerment; it's a velvet insult. The most successful Black Americans—the Obamas, the Oprahs, the Thomas Sowells—didn't need DEI quotas. They competed on merit and won. You're telling young Black kids that they can't succeed without a handout, and that's the most racist thing you can say. And don't lecture me about 'unconscious bias'—the only bias I see is your assumption that a white hiring manager is a bigot until proven otherwise. You talk about 'institutionalized racism' in policing and courts, but DEI doesn't fix that. It just adds another layer of bureaucracy that judges people by the color of their skin. What happens when a qualified Asian-American is passed over for a less qualified Black candidate to meet a 'diversity target'? That's not justice; that's a new form of discrimination. You call it 'tilting the field,' but you're just knocking down the white players to make the game 'fair.' And you know what? The game was never fair to begin with—but the solution isn't to make it unfair in the opposite direction. It's to remove the barriers entirely and let everyone compete. And this nonsense about 'reparations' and 'quotas'—it's a fantasy that treats people as interchangeable members of a group, not individuals. You want to pay me for the sins of my ancestors? I didn't own slaves. My family came to this country as immigrants in the 1920s, and we built everything from nothing. You're asking me to pay for crimes I didn't commit, to a person who never suffered them. That's not justice; that's extortion. DEI is a machine that manufactures grievances and then sells the cure. It's a racket. So spare me your moral outrage. You're not fighting racism; you're building a new one, and you're doing it with a smile.
