[QUOTE="doctorbadwolf, post: 8047562, member: 6704184"] Somewhat cynically (although I outright beleive that the fact you can’t make being part of a marginalized group a deciding factor between roughly equal candidates is a contributor in the continuance of systemic oppression) wotc could literally get away with straight up deciding (in secret) that the DEI manager will be a person of color, a woman or non binary person, and Queer if possible. I doubt they’ll do that, but the chances of anything happening to them for doing that are essentially zero. Having worked to end systemic racism does. Having generational experience fighting systemic oppression literally does. The idea that a Black person who has persued the learning and work experience necessary to qualify on paper for this job wouldn’t be a better candidate than a white person with the same basic work and education al qualifications is just absurd almost to the point of madness. The fact that wotc can’t just openly recognize that is idiotic. You’re missing the point. Personal experience isn’t “was discriminated against”. Someone who has spent their whole life on the wrong end of systemic oppression has a fuller understanding of how bias and complacency contribute to discrimination and other issues relevant to DEI. An acedemic understanding is literally insufficient. [/QUOTE]
