It was a collection of three ideas, each to weigh and be evaluated against other societal values. The terms diversity, equity, and inclusion weren\u2019t yet being used in the singular, as one all-inclusive, non-negotiable moral imperative. They had not yet merged into a bureaucratic juggernaut that runs roughshod over all aspects of national life.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>They are available now.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Seemingly in unison, and with almost no debate, nearly every major American institution \u2014 including federal, state, and local governments, universities and public schools, hospitals, insurance, media and technology companies, and major retail brands \u2014 has agreed that the DEI infrastructure is essential to the nation\u2019s proper functioning. <\/p>\n<p>Most major corporations have established DEI offices in their human resources department, from Amazon to Walmart. Also, sanitation departments have been established, as have police departments and physics departments. Organizations that were once opposed to DEI feel now compelled by DEI officers and DEI training. Organizations that already have a rich history, like the National Basketball Association or the National Football League, are also being challenged by DEI.\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Many of these offices also work with a vast network of DEI consultants, training outfits and trade organizations that support them.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>\u201cFive years ago, if you said \u2018DEI,\u2019 people would\u2019ve thought you were talking about the Digital Education Initiative,\u201d Robert Sellers, University of Michigan\u2019s first chief diversity officer,\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.michigandaily.com\/campus-life\/were-not-the-same-institution-we-were-five-years-ago-trotter-multicultural-center-hosts-celebration-of-dei-strategic-plan\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">In 2020.<\/a>\u00a0\u201cFive years ago, if you said DEI was a core value of this institution, you would have an argument.\u201d\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Diversity, equity, and inclusion is\u00a0an intentionally vague term used to describe sanctioned favoritism in the name of social justice.

But they\u2019re hiring people, giving them titles and pretty good money. I don\u2019t think they do nothing.\u201d\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>It\u2019s difficult to know how large the DEI Industrial Complex has become. The Bureau of Labor Statistics hasn\u2019t assessed its size. Thomas Kochan, MIT professor of diversity, calculated that the industry was worth $8 billion annually two decades ago. Yet, with the additions of equity and inclusion, the industry has certainly grown an order-of-magnitude larger. McKinsey and Company surveyed American companies six years ago and found that they were spending $6 billion annually.\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.mckinsey.com\/featured-insights\/gender-equality\/focusing-on-what-works-for-workplace-diversity\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">$8 billion annually on diversity training<\/a>\u00a0alone.
