    Elon Musk is a DEI hire right?

    He’s certainly neither qualified nor elected, so I can only assume he’s there to boost the syphilitic nazi quota.

      Might be great to also sign up for accounts on lots of legitimate sites that love to send out email as well. Harder to blanket-ban those emails. Some that might be great:

      • LinkedIn profile and looking for work
      • Amazon and yes, I would love to hear about new offers and deals
      • Yes, I am looking to buy a new car and please email me new offers from all of your dealerships
      • DNC, RNC, and Green party political announcements, plus email blasts from state representatives
      • MSNBC & Yahoo news

    Start reporting DEI hires like Amy Coney Barrett and Marco Rubio? Did they give Vivek a position or did they just lead him on? The letter my brother received asking him to rat out his coworkers was sent by a woman, probably a DEI hire.

    Of course they’re doing this. Expect a WHOLE lot more of this. 50 bucks say that next month everyone will be getting an email urging them to rat out Anne Frank’s immigrant hiding places, and failure to do so might earn you a ticket to the same death camp immigrant vacation camp

    Its like Trump’s government is watching all sorts of WWII documentaries and intensely writing down all the ideas they’re getting from it

      Date: January 23, 2025
      Prepared by: [Your Name]
      Subject: Investigation into the Hiring of a Suspected DEI Candidate

      Introduction

      This report presents an investigation into an individual suspected of being hired under the Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion (DEI) initiative, with concerns regarding their qualifications, experience, and motivations for the role. The individual in question has been hired for a DEI position, but questions have emerged about their expertise in the field and whether they were hired based on their alignment with the organization’s DEI goals or for other reasons, such as fulfilling diversity quotas.

      Background

      In recent months, the organization has made a concerted effort to enhance its diversity, equity, and inclusion practices, launching several DEI initiatives across departments. A key part of this effort involved the recruitment of individuals to fill DEI-focused roles. One such individual was hired for the newly created position of DEI Specialist. This candidate, though well-spoken and outwardly passionate about DEI, has attracted attention due to concerns about their qualifications and whether they were hired primarily to meet diversity goals rather than based on merit or relevant experience.

      Key Findings

      1. Questionable Qualifications The individual’s resume lists several experiences that seemingly align with DEI work, such as positions in community engagement, social justice advocacy, and educational outreach. However, upon closer inspection, there is a lack of specific DEI-related accomplishments or formal education in fields typically associated with DEI (e.g., sociology, psychology, organizational behavior). Moreover, the individual’s most recent role is described as a general administrative position with limited involvement in DEI-related projects. This raises questions about the depth of their expertise in implementing and driving DEI initiatives.

      2. Lack of DEI-Centric Experience Despite claims of previous experience in diversity-related roles, evidence of the candidate’s active involvement in DEI work is minimal. There is no substantive record of their contributions to significant DEI programs or any notable impact on organizational culture or policy. The few projects listed on their resume are either vague or appear to be non-DEI specific in nature, casting doubt on whether their prior experience is directly relevant to the objectives of the DEI role they were hired for.

      3. Concerns from Colleagues Some colleagues have expressed skepticism about the candidate’s qualifications and ability to meaningfully contribute to DEI initiatives. While the individual is often enthusiastic in meetings, several team members have noted a lack of depth in their understanding of DEI concepts and strategies. There are reports of the individual leaning heavily on surface-level talking points, without demonstrating a clear grasp of the complex and nuanced issues inherent to diversity and inclusion work.

      4. Background Check and References In an effort to further understand the candidate’s qualifications, HR initiated a background check and reached out to references provided by the candidate. While the individual’s previous employers and colleagues offered generally positive, though non-specific, feedback, no reference provided detailed examples of how the candidate contributed to DEI-related work. Furthermore, the candidate’s LinkedIn profile and public social media presence do not reflect a consistent history of involvement in DEI advocacy, leading to concerns that their professional image may have been crafted primarily for the purpose of securing a DEI role.

      5. Perceived Motivation for Hire There is speculation that the individual was hired to fulfill diversity quotas or to demonstrate the organization’s commitment to DEI without necessarily focusing on their qualifications for the role. This suspicion stems from the timing of the hire, coinciding with a public push to improve organizational diversity, as well as internal communications emphasizing the need for quick action in hiring diverse candidates. While it is possible that the individual is genuinely passionate about DEI, the lack of experience and qualifications has prompted concerns that they may not be the best fit for the position, particularly if their hire was motivated by the desire to meet diversity goals.

      Potential Implications

      The hiring of an individual with questionable qualifications for a DEI role could have several significant consequences for the organization:

      • Erosion of DEI Credibility: If the individual is unable to contribute meaningfully to the organization’s DEI objectives, it could undermine the credibility of the organization’s diversity initiatives and its commitment to making substantive changes.

      • Internal Discontent: Employees who are genuinely committed to DEI may feel frustrated or demotivated if the new hire is perceived as unqualified, potentially leading to dissatisfaction or a lack of engagement with DEI efforts.

      • Risk of Tokenism: If the hire is seen as a token appointment or as fulfilling a diversity quota rather than a merit-based decision, the organization could face accusations of tokenism, which could damage employee morale and public perception.

      • Missed Opportunities: The organization may miss the opportunity to bring in a highly qualified DEI professional who can drive meaningful change and create a more inclusive workplace.

      Next Steps

      1. Further Review of Qualifications: A more thorough review of the candidate’s qualifications should be conducted, including interviews with previous employers and a deeper dive into their experience with DEI initiatives.

      2. Feedback from DEI Team and Leadership: Input should be gathered from current DEI leaders within the organization to assess whether the individual is making progress in their role and if their work aligns with the goals of the DEI program.

      3. Evaluation of DEI Initiatives: The organization should evaluate the effectiveness of its current DEI initiatives and determine whether the new hire is able to contribute meaningfully to these efforts. This evaluation will help identify any gaps in the team and clarify whether the candidate is meeting the organization’s needs.

      4. Mentorship and Professional Development: If the individual shows promise but lacks experience, the organization could consider offering mentorship or additional training to help them grow into the role and better contribute to DEI goals.

      5. Consideration of Role Adjustment or Replacement: If the candidate is determined to be an inadequate fit for the DEI position, the organization should consider adjusting their responsibilities or even initiating a new search to find a more qualified candidate who can effectively support the organization’s DEI goals.

      Conclusion

      The hiring of a candidate with unclear qualifications for a DEI role raises significant concerns about the organization’s commitment to achieving its diversity goals through qualified leadership. While the individual may have potential, further investigation is necessary to ensure they are capable of making the meaningful contributions expected from such a pivotal position. The organization must assess whether this hire aligns with its broader DEI objectives and take appropriate action to ensure the success of its initiatives.

        The script you got is kinda the opposite of what you’d want it to write. This is for reporting someone for being not good enough at implementing DEI policies, which would be thrown out immediately as that’s the exact behavior the government now wants. The thing you’re looking to do is falsely report someone for implementing DEI.

          That’s trivial to filter out at the server level though. Might waste a few minutes of time, but a competent admin would barely be annoyed.

            That assumes both competency and an admin that actually wants to effectively accomplish things. The people up top want this stupid shit, the people in the trenches generally either don’t give a fuck or don’t want this either.

          Again, probably not going to be as effective if you do something that can very easily be noticed and filtered out. They’re not going to try to translate the Spanish just in case it’s an earnest report, they’re just gonna delete it and move on. An effective fake report should force them to waste actual resource on investigating it.

              Again, not really the point of sending fake reports. They’d just see the Spanish, delete it, and move on. The point is to give them something they’ll see, want to read, and want to spend as much time interacting with as possible.
