I saw this Xitter thread from an account named DEI 4 White Guys. Been thinking about it for a while now. He gives a step-by-step guide on how to destroy/permanently change your DEI department.
1. Search your company’s name and the word “diversity.”
2. Scroll through their DEI page and find their employee network groups. They’ll likely have one for Black, Asian, Latino, Indigenous, LGBT, Disabled, Women, Seniors, and Veterans.
3. Find out who your company’s chief diversity or people officer is, and get their email. You can find it in your company’s directory or LinkedIn.
4. Using their own DEI language, email your chief diversity officer from your company email and ask if there is an approved process, standard, or procedure to create an employee network group, and that you’d like to create one for people of European descent or who identify as White.
The idea here is that either the company will be forced onto one of three paths.
1. Accept the proposal, start giving more powers and privileges to Whites.
2. Refuse the proposal and risk being sued for discrimination.
3. Do away with DEI in its entirety, to not risk being called racist for giving Whites the same privileges other races have.
So, do you think this could work? Or am I just being retarded/naive? Because it looks like a good strategy to me. If my company had a DEI department, I would try it.

Here’s an example to Derek Bottoms, Home Depot’s Chief Diversity Officer:
Mr. Bottoms,
I recently learned that Home Depot has Associate Resource Groups (ARGs) which promote our culture of inclusion, support diversity, and help drive employee engagement through fostering professional development, raising cultural awareness, celebrating diversity, and offering community outreach opportunities.
As far as heritage ARGs are concerned, I saw that we have an ARG for African American, Hispanic, Native American, and Asian American associates.
I would like to contribute and help increase the diversity of the ARG program, and promote Home Depot’s culture of inclusion by creating an ARG that includes, represents, celebrates, fosters professional development, raises cultural awareness, and offers community outreach opportunities for my heritage: Americans of European descent and/or who identify as White.
Is there an approved process, standard, or procedure for creating a new ARG?
Thank you for your time.
