    Aren’t all corporations in the states being forced to eliminate these initiatives or face ridiculous law suits?

      No, only the government. And it’s still questionable how legal it is or isn’t or how much of a mandate vs suggestion it is.

      No they’re using threats from Trump that have no legal backing as an excuse to remove initiatives that don’t actually want in the first place.

      Plenty of places are actively and publicly leaving their DEI programs in place without any issue.

      Nope, I work for a pretty big US based corporation and they specifically said they would not touch and actually defend their DEI initiatives if it ever had to come to that.

      Netflix (as far as I know) also kept them as well as some others

      Corporations that are falling in line do so willingly and should. be called out for it.

        I’m glad to hear Netflix is pushing back

        I’ve got friends there who are awesome people. I’m canceling my subscription for now due to the trade war, but we’ll see how things go.

        I’m canceling everything US based for a full broadside.
