look at what 'diversity quotas' did to Labour in UK and Democrats in US. Don't the 'ruling elite' hate the fact that Trump has lowest ever unemployment with African Americans. The last thing regressives want is for people to be chosen on ability to do job.

That's why we don't have diversity quotas!

This kind of sounds trite, but technically, it is true. Many companies try to achieve diversity targets, but how else can you do this, without some form of racial/ethnic/sexual discrimination? This is something people would rather not confront.

Herein lies the problem, which reveals which this is REALLY about. We are told the discrimination is bad, yet, it is not only acceptable in some situations, but DEMANDED in some scenarios.
I've worked for companies which actively try to achieve gender quota targets. Many do, but no one challenges them as practising the evil of gender discrimination.

Jordan Peterson makes the point that all systems of value create hierarchies and create inequality. It follows from this view that systems based on the value of diversity will have their own discrimination.
