race/gender/religion/age/sexual preference. Because discrimination aside, no group has "all" people within it that can do the job.
That is not what DEI espouses. It espouses hiring be based not on merit, but on creating diversity. It espouses looking past more qualified candidates to hire a candidate based on those characteristics instead. It assumes that "all" can do it, and that merit doesn't matter.
Your belief is very Trumpian, and I agree. Merit is the way forward, not discrimination based on the above characteristics.
