DEI didn’t implode; it’s not an implosion when it’s shot at from the outside by malicious actors intent on destroying something they don’t understand and can only kneejerk react to out of unreasoning fear.

This isn’t collateral, this was the plan, the planners were just too stupid to see the natural consequences of their plan. See also the price of diesel.

It was definitely and constantly imploding. It was just kept alive by a giant amount of taxpayer and corporate money.

What does this even mean? Every initiative is kept alive by money. It was very clearly attacked by the Trump administration, and once they started attacking, DEI initiatives stopped. Why else do you think the "implosions", apparently happening all the time, were finally too much to sustain around 2025?

The same administration who, just yesterday hired a new press secretary who was very obviously not hired for qualifications but instead for being a blonde.

Namely by going too far and breaking the law by becoming discriminatory? So now companies are not going to touch DEI.

DEI killed DEI, not Trump.

		When did DEI go too far, and why? I am not aware of any anti-DEI position that thinks it was ever an acceptable practice. It has been resisted since the 80s.
