"DEI hire" is arrogant. That's a great way to other people instead of owning the flaw. I appreciate the call for maturity in the field. Own your flaws.

the use of “DEI hire” is a shorthand for “i'm a massive racist shitweasel”

Hold on now, it could also be shorthand for "I'm a massive misogynist shitweasel".

technically both, but “dei” became a mostly racist dogwhistle.
