    Ah yes. “Equal opportunities” of the old days, like being told to be out of town by sunset or you’ll be lynched, or firing women who get pregnant, or redlining neighborhoods and adding restrictions too deeds to prevent the “wrong sort” of people (aka anyone not white) from moving in.

    “DEI Ideology” is a made-up boogie man that the far-right created as an excuse to discriminate against minorities and their allies, since being outright racist isn’t acceptable anymore. White conservatives are terrified of meritocracy.
