Head of WHO responds to Elon Musk’s comments on DEI

Elon Musk may be an old school Democrat, but these days, that basically equates to being slightly right of center.

It’s why he speaks out against wokeness, including the DEI initiatives that are just racism with a prettier name.

Just a few days ago, Musk tweeted:

Dave Rubin, who agrees that DEI is toxic, differs slightly from Musk in that he thinks the racism embedded into DEI initiatives was totally intentional.

“The people that put diversity, equity, and inclusion departments in our corporations, in our government, in all of these places — I actually think most of them actually knew exactly what they were doing. They were instilling racism; they were unearthing old things that we had put to bed,” he explains.

Musk also tweeted:

“Quite correct,” says Dave. However, not everyone agrees with him.

One of those people is the director general of the World Health Organization, Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus.

Ghebreyesus retweeted one of Musk’s tweets along with the following statement:

“Diversity, equity, and inclusion, which we know is based on judging people by race,” is entirely incongruent with Ghebreyesus’ claim that DEI ensures “respect for all individuals regardless of their background or identity.”

“Except the whole thing is based on judging people by their background and identity,” says Dave, pointing out the glaring “duplicitous double language.”
