It only makes sense if we agree that every group cares only about themselves rather then the purpose of the institution / company.
The choice is simple, hire on merit and make sure the end product is the best or allow a free for all where the end result does not matter as long as your side gets more then the other groups.
Does your brother like new movies? "Diversity hires" are all pulling for their group rather then make a good movie. This is how we end up with feminist girl-bosses and black female Vikings. If he does not like the outcome in entertainment then why would he want such outcomes in anything state related.
Does he also want sports to "reflect how the country looks", if not why?
I’m in agreement with you. His answer was him twisting himself into knots and he simply said “that is different” when I brought up sports. I’d love for them to force sports leagues to hire based on DEI standards for one season. Hire on merit and ignore/kick out anyone who whines about disparity
I know, I was just meditating about why DIE backfires so much. It's not just that you get individuals that are less qualified It's also because they don't act in the greater interest, everyone just wants more for their group.
Movies are a great example of this but you can also see it with Indians in IT for instance.
