The Tennessee Republican also used the acronym for "diversity, equity and inclusion" in describing the Secret Service director, telling her she's a "DEI horror story."
Starting to feel it’s gone beyond a dog whistle. Most of those are far more low-key, like “thug” or “urban” or “welfare queen”. And this one is more clearly defined by facts and usage than “woke”.
They might as well come out and say, “This is what comes from hiring n*****s and women!”
DEI is the new N word. It’s a racist dog whistle.
Hold up.
It’s also sexist.
True that.
It’s literally all forms of bigotry, because anyone of any disadvantaged group could be called “DEI.”
The only group it doesn’t apply to is rich, white, able-bodied, straight, cis, Christian, never-jailed, well -educated men*.
I might have missed an adjective, but you get the idea.

They’re pathetic fucking cowards who won’t just say what they mean because they know they can’t win running as open racists.
This use is a racist fog horn, but otherwise I agree.
