We need to start calling it “Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion.” I know it’s a few extra syllables, but if we can adopt that language and the press can adopt it, then we can press these fucking idiots on which part of it they find criminal.

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.

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.

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.

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.

It also makes it obvious how stupid a phrase like "do DEI" is.
This is also why I was never a fan of the Antifa abbreviation. If you're gonna say you're anti-anti-fascist, I want you to fully say it.
They'll just argue that whatever we name it, its name is unrelated to what it actually does. I can easily see them saying "Just because you call it Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion, doesn't mean it actually does those things."
"Criminally Investigate"
Investigate in a criminal manner
Yes, sounds about right.
Pinkman: You don't want a criminal lawyer, you want a criminal lawyer.
That was Rudy
Rudy should've called Saul.
The Pinkertons have entered the chat.
So your going to file charges against companies if they adhere to something that had been law/government policy for the last decade or more? I would love to hear exactly what charges you're planning on filing...
Doesn't matter. If they have a sympathetic court, they can convict on anything.
The charge? You very much hurt my feelings and I'm forever butthurt over you being decent to others, that's the charge!
“I can hurt your feelings, but you can’t hurt mine”.
They are claiming that DEI is discriminatory.
This is a level of shit that despotic African nations don't sink to.
This inherently conflicts with Trump's instruction to challenge anti-christian bias.
The memo, headed with the subject line “ENDING ILLEGAL DEI AND DEIA DISCRIMINATION AND PREFERENCES,”
Ofcourse its in full caps... just like his silly tweets.
that has to be a stage name, right?
This sounds... Efficient?
