I'm sorry to say that their answer will be something along the lines of "I ain't workin' with no n****s or f**s!". We should stop trying to assume that fascists hold themselves to the same moral standards as normal people. These are people who only abstain from using racial and homophobic slurs for fear of legal trouble. They no longer have to fear that.
This 1000%. Stop separating your words from their meanings.
Say what you mean and mean what you say.
I'm am strongly opposed to diversity. We should stop using Windows and macOS and create a monoculture by standardizing on Linux.
You almost got it. GNU/Linux. TFTFY
Or you could ask them if they know what DEI stands for.
Spoiler Alert: They don't.
They love hating acronyms and nicknames repeated by their media sources that they know literally nothing about.
They know what it stands before, but if you ask them to drop the mask they'll start saying racial slurs.
I support diversity, equity and inclusion in giving people the chance to get a good education and achieve good outcomes through their own efforts (with good teacher and mentor support).
For things that are beyond secondary education, I support a race-blind color-blind culture-blind meritocracy where the best qualified people should be admitted to universities and jobs (private or public sector).
These are my ideals. But with that said, today we have none of these in the US. And never had it. Also people and systems created by people are imperfect but people are good at finding loop holes and ways to game any system.
But I still think our best hope is to do our best to support #1. We have the funds to make schools in poor neighborhoods better and pay all teachers more. The outcome of doing #1 will not be felt immediately, it will take generations.
Neither side of the political spectrum does or care about that though.
It's just like the anti work stuff, being against antifa, etc. They are openly signaling their intention and the fact they won't just say they are fascists is childish.
