" You start out in 1954 by saying, “N****r, n****r, n****r” By 1968 you can’t say “n****r”—that hurts you, backfires. So you say stuff like, uh, forced busing, states’ rights, and all that stuff, and you’re getting so abstract. Now, you’re talking about cutting taxes, and all these things you’re talking about are totally economic things and a byproduct of them is, blacks get hurt worse than whites.… “We want to cut this,” is much more abstract than even the busing thing, uh, and a hell of a lot more abstract than “n****r, n****r.”

melting pot

To them, it's not a melting pot. They see a caste-system of suckitude where every different group exists on the levels beneath wealthy white people. Every reaction, every lie, every diversion, it's all in service of that one design. The funny part is: the coded speech and dogwhistles mean that they don't exactly have enough social sway to be full-throated racists about it.

Yeah, pretty much. There was a comic I saw someone post on Facebook of The Statue of Liberty helping build trump's wall. Like the morons had never read or heard of The New Colossus.

Also, the opposite of "diversity, equity, and inclusion" is "uniformity, inequity, and exclusion." Is that what they expect the melting pot of the USA to embrace?

Is it what they expect?

Well, I'm pretty sure not only expect, but reading "uniformity, inequity, and exclusion" is a configuration of syllables that can make every right-wing tradwife pregnant, and feels to their alpha male husbands like watching from the closet in their Batman mask.

Those are the cornerstones of conservative ideology

For a while it was CRT, but DEI hire is easier to stick on a specific person.
