Hey HC, Hope all is well!
Why would anyone care what a con-man, hedge fund manager has to say?

hedge fund manager: an individual who charges clueless investors 25X the fees of mutual funds for half the performance of index funds,
and who pays half the income tax rate of an uber driver, and has triple the ego of a rock star.

This is spot on:
Under DEI, one’s degree of oppression is determined based upon where one resides on a so-called intersectional pyramid of oppression where whites, Jews, and Asians are deemed oppressors, and a subset of people of color, LGBTQ people, and/or women are deemed to be oppressed. Under this ideology which is the philosophical underpinning of DEI as advanced by Ibram X. Kendi and others, one is either an anti-racist or a racist. There is no such thing as being “not racist.”

A lot of people around here won’t like reading it, but this is the core of the modern left’s ideology: “oppressors” vs. “the oppressed”. It’s a convenient way to neatly put people in boxes, create simple political messaging, and drive the correct high-energy perpetual emotional responses they need to keep the movement (and grift)going.

It doesn’t matter if your parents or grandparents immigrated with less than nothing: if you’re white, you’re the problem. Their “logic” also forces them to pretzelize their thinking with concepts of “multiracial whiteness” so they can lump da Jooz in with the oppressors. Asians, too.
