That sounds like a compliment then
Is that really a fucking bad thing for these
Yep. There's a whole propaganda industry that rails against it (Prager U, Daily Wire, Red pillers, etc), and right-wing states are banning Universities from engaging in it, and banning investment of state funds in companies that take DEI into account (even though it's pretty much just corporate lip-service).
Bill Ackmann (a 9 bn dollar heavy reptiloid billionaire) posted a lengthy rant against it on that birdsite and our lord and saviour Elmo concurred and proclaimed that it's racist, immoral and illegal although similar programs were already in place since 1964 in the USA.
MAGAs regularly claim that it's the fault of DEI when something goes south, e.g. Boeing machines failing, the CrowdStrike thingy, the bridge crash in Baltimore or Harris getting to the position she's now in.
