Through and endless barrage of “diversity and inclusion” marketing over the past 10 years corporations have convinced people they care about marginalized people, underrepresented minorities, and every social cause in the world.

In reality they’ve turned human beings into quota. Some of these companies actually put their “diversity stats” in annual reports and on their websites, essentially showing off how many minorities they can collect.

Unfortunately minorities have become a tool woke corporations can parade around to make themselves “look good.”

It doesn’t make them look good. It’s dehumanizing. And it’s surprising how many people still support this charade.

A board member once gave me advice ahead of my first major acquisition meeting with the CEO of a mega corp.

“You’re meeting the CEO. No matter what you talk about - Never, ever, ever discuss price with the CEO. You both have people who will do that for you.”
