On Wednesday Kevin Stitt, Oklahoma’s governor, signed an executive order in effect banning diversity, equity and inclusion (DEI) programs at agencies and public colleges and universities across the state.
The order prohibits them from using state funds, property or resources towards DEI initiatives and orders them to dismiss “non-critical personnel”. It is effective immediately, but institutions are expected to comply no later than 31 May 2024.
The 25 public colleges and universities in the state also have to provide reports that detail the expenditure of their former DEI initiatives and job positions. Stitt said he is “implementing greater protections for Oklahomans and their tax dollars”. But according to local news outlet KFOR, only “around $10.2m was spent on DEI programs in the past decade. It accounted for three-tenths of one percent of all higher education spending.”
What a virtue signaling piece of shit. Fuck all these “white straight Christians are the only true Americans” douchebags and everyone that supports them.
America has, and always has been, a melting pot of immigrants and viewpoints. This sort of behavior has no place in our society, and these people should have no place in government, let alone our community in general, at any level.
Looks like they’re claiming and taking plenty of space, to me.
