Look, just admit you didnt want to read the whole article. These "waaaaah X% of CEOs" are completely and totally irrelevant to the world of entry level hiring and academics, which is the point. Assuming you're not lying about being a hiring manager, it's people like you who got grandfathered in who are the problem.
And besides, what is he supposed to teach his son to do to get hired in fields that openly state they won't read his resume? I mean, become trans maybe. Thats about the only thing in your power.
Anyway, in case you're not lying about being a hiring manager, you should probably reminded that yes, the stuff you're doing is actually illegal and they might even decide to start enforcing it. https://www.schmitt.senate.gov/media/press-releases/senator-schmitt-sends-letter-highlighting-abuse-of-h-1b-visa-program-for-dei-hires/

Be honest, you've done some of this havent you? Your white guy CEO boss might have told you this is legal to hire only black women or foreigners so the numbers balance out, but it's not lol.
The author cherry picked two professions and used irrelevant statistics combined with a profound misunderstanding of DEI to come to a bullshit conclusion.
Just admit it, you have probably never had a DEI training. I have had over ten and I could teach one at this point. The content's recommendations are so boring and benign it ain't funny. You and the author want to create a narrative that doesn't exist. The facts don't support it.
You know how many fields men dominate in? You are telling me because press room floors are hiring slightly more women and that in a particular university there just happens to be no tenured male white professor that we are in a crisis!?
What if it is all fucking black college, what if the press room floor is for a all female news agency. There is no discrimination going on. It is all legal.
So what if a few corporations decided to hire a few more minorities and women because of DEI. This is not the source of this man's problems. I will not be lectured about made up grievances.
I am sorry, but the author must think we are fucking idiots willing to listen to what amounts to be misogyny cloaked in anti-feminism garbage.
Now your bringing up immigrants. It is always someone else's problem is it not. Acting so fucking dumb.
