I don't get how you're being downvoted for just stating facts.

It's not like you're making anything up without any actual evidence, and yet, people just want to hate anything with the words "sexist" or "DEI" because that means the party opposing them is automatically wrong.

It is unfortunately hard to convince someone once they've made up their mind.

But as long as people indifferent to the situation see my comment and get a fuller picture, I'm fine with it.

I tend to take a contrarian stance on a lot of things because if it turns out I'm wrong, people will correct me, and I learn something, so downvotes don't bother me at all.

It's not a contrarian stance when you're right, like in this case.

And people are still trying to convince you that you're wrong, so you have to ignore comments if you know you're right as well.
