Except that's not what's happening. Or rather, that's not what DEI was doing.
DEI programs are just making underrepresented people more visible. No one's being hired because they look different.
And for centuries white men have been getting jobs that more qualified people were passed for, because they were white and male. DEI was just to level the playing field.
What does making more visible mean? I'd personally rather try to make things like race, sex and whatnot less visible so they'd have less effect on the hiring process.
