Is Diversity our strength?
from Beer and Conversation with Pigweed and Crowhill Hosted by Pigweed and Crowhill
The boys drink and review Anchor's Christmas beer, then discuss diversity. Note: this is an older show from the archives. Is diversity our strength? That's what the political elite tell us. But is that true? Diversiity has a very American sound. It reminds us of the saying on the statue of liberty, and reminds us that we're a nation of immigrants. But the word has become a cudgel. When Trump decided he would address the number one concern of voters -- the border -- the left used "diversity" as a weapon against him. The reality is that diversity isn't a value. It's just a description. Diversity in and of itself doesn't make something better or worse. We care about outcomes, not the diversity of the people who bring about that outcome. Also, "diversity" is very narrow. It's been limited to sex, race, and sexual orientation. There are hundreds of other ways to categorized people. Why aren't they part of the "diversity" cult? What it really means is "we think there are too many straight white people."
