So is DEI the new "woke"?
It's coded language that helps racists feel better about themselves
They're kind of interchangeable. They only know that it's about stuff involving minorities that they don't like.
Not really, DEI has a certain "Black folks getting uppity" to it, whereas woke is more along the lines of "non-binary 'Custer was a war criminal'-shouting person with purple hair"
