Hated Speech
We all know that if the students of color were performing better in math and astrophysics than the white students, the same people claiming that fields math and astrophysics are racist would be extolling the virtues of merit-based scholarship in those disciplines. No one is claiming that the individualism, exceptionalism, perfectionism and meritocracy which defines the NBA and the NFL are racist. These types of speech laws are not designed to protect anyone. They are designed to give the people in power the ability to shut down speech they don't like so they can control outcomes in their favor.
The diversity, equity and
inclusion crowd are the least diverse and inclusive people out there. They want
no diversity of thought and will exclude anyone who has a belief that is
different from theirs. This is why they are the champions of anti-speech laws.
They do not want to hear a different point of view, and some of them even want
people to be arrested if they have a different opinion than they do. If you
claim to be a champion of diversity and inclusion then you must be willing to
include a wide range of diverse beliefs and ideologies, even the ones you
adamantly disagree with. That is what diversity and inclusion means. But sadly,
the people who want to control our speech only want to hear what they agree
with.
