The points have already been refuted ad nauseum. He just comes back with the same points that have been refuted but worded in a way that makes him sound intelligent.
If the horse refuses to drink after being led to water, then the horse is a dead one. No need to beat it.
I haven’t been in this thread for its entirety and can’t speak on if, when, and where these points were actually refuted.
But I have seen a lot of arguments, and to say they offered a substantive rebuttal in any capacity would be a stretch, to say the least, so safe to say I’m not sure this is really valid.
You think that institutions over the past decade (at least) have not been captured by leftist dogma, especially DEI policies. That’s fine. I just disagree.
I didn’t say backlash is proof of overreach.
I said that they were so unaware of the obvious blowback of such a terrible DEI-driven idea like race rating is evidence that they’re ideologically captured. In a bubble.
Otherwise how could they not expect the backlash?
How else do you increase minority representation without reducing it from racial groups elsewhere?
Their tool was explicitly designed to reduce the amount of white, straight, attractive, young men.
I think you can only think this if you take the most generous interpretation of DEI’s Motte and Bailey act and ignore how this actually gets executed in real life. Thes groups and Elite Institutions that do this are not shy about coming out against hiring Whites (and more recently, Jews). They plainly state it.
No. Not addressed. They dodge the real point. They talk around it, not to it. Saying “someone else said it” don’t make it true. If my point bad, say why. Don’t hide behind other words.
That not argument. That just insult. You don’t like how I talk, so you attack me. If my words weak, show proof. If not, stop wasting time.
You say my words sound “robot.” Maybe so. But just because words sound fancy don’t mean they wrong. They explain real things with real meaning. You don’t like word, you call them fake. That not fix problem. If you want fight, fight the ideas. No fight style.
Everyone raging against DEI should go watch the new Superman. They’d probably feel a little happier with life if they did and not feel inclined to be mad about everything.
Ah, dear interlocutor, your felicitous observation does not go unnoticed. Indeed, one might construe this stylistic pivot not as a capitulation, but as a deliberate exhibition to illuminate that beneath the ostensibly austere veneer lies a mind unshackled by pedestrian constraints. Far from “finally embracing” any latent intelligence, this ostentatious display is a rejoinder to the reductive insinuation that intellectual sophistication is some shameful secret to be suppressed. Rather, it is a clarion affirmation that eloquence, far from obfuscation, is the very sinew that binds cogent reasoning to persuasive expression. So, I thank you for providing the occasion to revel unabashedly in the plenitude of my rhetorical arsenal. May this serve as a testament not only to what I am capable of, but to the enduring potency of style as substance’s most elegant companion.
Permit me to further elucidate: having thoroughly traversed the labyrinthine depths of David Foster Wallace’s Infinite Jest, a tome whose sprawling narrative complexity and philosophical profundity have compelled me to draw some decidedly singular and, dare I say, unsettling conclusions about the very fabric of existence. I stand infinitely superior not only linguistically but thematically, narratively, and humanly. This immersion has endowed me with a panoramic vision of the human condition and the cosmos that transcends conventional discourse.
Thus, this eloquence is no mere ornament; it is the manifestation of a mind steeped in the profound and the arcane, wielding language as both scalpel and brush to dissect and paint the contours of reality. It is a clarion affirmation that eloquence, far from obfuscation, is the very sinew that binds cogent reasoning to persuasive expression. So, I thank you for providing the occasion to revel unabashedly in the plenitude of my rhetorical arsenal. May this serve as a testament not only to what I am capable of, but to the enduring potency of style as substance’s most elegant companion.
I am begging people who say things like this to go read press release about the tool. It has scores for 0-10 for literally all of these attributes I listed (and more).
Heterosexuality is explicitly a 0/10. Arab is a 7/10 and White is apparently a 0. Woman is a 5, Male is a 0.
