Welcome to the News community!
Rules:
1. Be civil
Attack the argument, not the person. No racism/sexism/bigotry. Good faith argumentation only. This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban. Do not respond to rule-breaking content; report it and move on.
2. All posts should contain a source (url) that is as reliable and unbiased as possible and must only contain one link.
Obvious biased sources will be removed at the mods’ discretion. Supporting links can be added in comments or posted separately but not to the post body. Sources may be checked for reliability using Wikipedia, MBFC, AdFontes, GroundNews, etc.
3. No bots, spam or self-promotion.
Only approved bots, which follow the guidelines for bots set by the instance, are allowed.
4. Post titles should be the same as the article used as source. Clickbait titles may be removed.
Posts which titles don’t match the source may be removed. If the site changed their headline, we may ask you to update the post title. Clickbait titles use hyperbolic language and do not accurately describe the article content. When necessary, post titles may be edited, clearly marked with [brackets], but may never be used to editorialize or comment on the content.
5. Only recent news is allowed.
Posts must be news from the most recent 30 days.
6. All posts must be news articles.
No opinion pieces, Listicles, editorials, videos, blogs, press releases, or celebrity gossip will be allowed. All posts will be judged on a case-by-case basis. Mods may use discretion to pre-approve videos or press releases from highly credible sources that provide unique, newsworthy content not available or possible in another format.
7. No duplicate posts.
If an article has already been posted, it will be removed. Different articles reporting on the same subject are permitted. If the post that matches your post is very old, we refer you to rule 5.
8. Misinformation is prohibited.
Misinformation / propaganda is strictly prohibited. Any comment or post containing or linking to misinformation will be removed. If you feel that your post has been removed in error, credible sources must be provided.
9. No link shorteners or news aggregators.
All posts must link to original article sources. You may include archival links in the post description. News aggregators such as Yahoo, Google, Hacker News, etc. should be avoided in favor of the original source link. Newswire services such as AP, Reuters, or AFP, are frequently republished and may be shared from other credible sources.

For copyright reasons, you are not allowed to copy an entire article into your post body. This is an instance wide rule, that is strictly enforced in this community.

"she argues DEI initiatives violate anti-discrimination laws."
Up is down, wrong is right, black is white.
God I hate this country
War is peace, freedom is slavery, ignorance is strength.
Thank God for Lemmy. Reading this made me feel like I was taking crazy pills until seeing your guys's comments. These people are straight up going full 1984 "The Party told you to reject the evidence of your eyes and ears. It was their final, most essential command."
Blessed are the silent
Not discriminating against brown ppl is discrimination against whites!
"When you're accustomed to privilege, equality feels like oppression."
My attitude at this point is that the US is getting what it deserves, you want to be as racist as possible? OK, enjoy your destroyed economy, lost civil rights, and felon president who's just white enough to steal all your tax revenue.
There are a lot of people living in the united states who don't deserve to deal with this racist bullshit.
Indeed. Most of us either voted directly against it, sat out, or voted for some useless third party. And as infuriating as the second two groups are - most people did not actively vote FOR this shit.
And then there are the people that are ineligible to vote like kids, who definitely don't deserve this shit.
Please do not forget that republicans have been actively disenfranchising voters and making it hard to vote. Not everyone who didn’t vote “sat out”; they were literally unable to vote.
Oh yes, I fully realize that.
Certainly. But an awful lot of these people stayed at home during the last election.
And an awful lot of them voted FOR this. I am marrying into an Hispanic family with some people who voted for Trump... who were then surprised when they were fired from their jobs immediately after he announced the DEI orders.
The people it affects most are the ones who majority voted against him
I'm aware. I'm one of the people they want to ethnicly clense.
Racist, misogynistic, and ableist.
Billionaires bought the election; enough propaganda, both via manipulated social media platforms and marketing in swing states, can buy anyone willing to be the stooge of private interests the presidency.
Most Americans don't deserve to suffer at the hands at such corruption.
We now live in a giving country where White makes right.
Well as long as your male.
