Never the less, I supported diversity efforts in the beginning before it became clear what it was really about for the loudest and most hateful. Control.
I think that's how the society at large got suckered into it.
The vast majority of people would agree that women historically have faced more challenges in the workplace than men. Same with minorities of all kinds.
We all would like the workplace to be a fairer environment free from these prejudices and discriminations. No one likes the lecherous man who always makes comments on women's looks. No one likes the person who constantly traffics in racial stereotypes, whether intentionally malicious or simply unaware.
That being said, we like it even less when it becomes outright discrimination against certain groups, and when it causes the best people not to be hired, or when it warps the quality of the product.
Hopefully this fad will fade into the dustbin of history.
