There is so much wrong with this whole notion. But the two that are most painful is the false assertion that there even could or should be “balance” based on the idea that there are only two ways to think… at all. Absurd. And the other is folks consinuously misuing DEI as a stand-in for whenever conservatives whine about not being at the table. I see what they are attempting to say, but it gives weight that there is merit in the argument that they should be given this seat, ans it misuses the actual place for DEI initiatives to help actual people in need of them.
