Richard Hanania is a guy who changes his opinion every few months. He is an opportunist first and foremost. He thinks of himself as an "elitist" in the same way that Richard Spencer (who positively reviewed Cofnas' piece) does, or Claire Lehmann (who left a comment saying "terrific article!") does, or Cofnas does. They are all the same. Me reading a Richard Hanania article is not going to convince me of anything, except convince me that I was right to disagree with Cofnas.

"Sometimes it's self-hate". It is not self-hate in this case. It was enlightenment, rationalistic pragmatic thinking. DEI came about before "woke" shit or BLM stuff or whatever.

Lol. So because someone is engaging in racially motivated crime, you're blaming White liberals? If White people engage in racially motivated crimes, is that also the fault of White liberals? Sounds like you just don't like WASPs...

"They are the same". Clearly you were projecting when you said I made up a strawman. Trust me when I say the current liberal elite are well-aware of the nuances of "diversity". They play one group against the other all the time!

Of course they have feelings of kinship. They are a minority. You can't expect minorities not to stick to each other. Jfc, this is sociology 1-0-1.

So, in your mind, Trumpian nepotism is better than DEI, even though both in the end have the same results? You think Trumpian nepotism is "neutral"? Again, I'd say Trumpian nepotism is worse.

"There's a difference between the two, even if both weren't hired on merit" susdog.meme. "You can't have a presidency that doesn't support anti-white discrimination and also isn't full of presidential dick-suckers". So you're saying a "pro-White" presidency is naturally not meritocratic in any way?

WASPs aren't pro-diversity to the same degree you think, so having an "idealogical stooge" would actually be less nepotistic than having a "White dick-sucker".

Also, being "pro-White" is also an ideology, just like being pro-DEI. The whole argument for being "pro-White" was a "return to meritocracy". Hundreds of articles were written about this.

"China or some warlord in Bumfuckistan". So you hate the Turd world, but look at them and want to do the same thing? How ironic. Import turd world ideas, become the turd world, no?

"You gotta show me some"

Come the fuck on. This article is from 2016, right after the election. There are hundreds of similar articles, from left-wing and right-wing publications. There are dozens of studies.
