“The brazen hypocrisy staggers the mind. Disney, which commands a market cap larger than the GDP of many nations, can’t find the courage to even wait for court challenges? Meta, which regularly boasts its power to connect billions, suddenly can’t muster the strength to defend its own policies and users? These aren’t businesses making tough choices – they’re paper empires run by moral cowards—simpering, whimpering, and weak.”
Unpopular opinion, but a company removing their DEI policies as to not pick a legal battle with the US government is not the problem, assuming their actual hiring practices are not really changing. If Google from now on only hired straight, white people, it would be detrimental to them for missing out on a huge pool of talent and they know this. If all they are doing is removing diversity requirements from writing and canceling black history month pizza parties (which face it no one really cares about celebrating culture at the workplace), then essentially nothing has changed and they can roll all this back in 4 years.
… on the other hand, Apple advertising on X is coward shit. 💩

Why on earth would anyone paying even the slightest bit of attention assume that?

Even with DEI they still hire more straight white men than any other group, and they do so because they don’t give a shit about the talent they might be missing out on because they don’t consider marginalised people to be as talented in the first place, that’s literally how white supremacy along with other systems of oppression function, and they aren’t something that is just happening now, they are literally what America and capitalism are founded on.
You think Google, Meta, and all those silicon valley companies in CALIFORNIA are going to stop hiring Indian and Asian engineers because they don’t have an official DEI policy anymore? Really? Do you even know who Google’s CEO is?
Unpopular opinion warning.
The real cowards are the masses who don’t stop removeding about these entities and then keep on using them. You are enabling them and you are not just missing the ring, you are gagging on their chode
