The Great Ideological Lie of Diversity

It is important to talk about a Survey of Post Secondary Teachers and Researchers which was designed to evaluate what is known as “diversity” among the selected groups, as a result of the commitment of the three Canadian research concession boards, under government guidance. Federal liberal, to increase “Diversity” among those who receive funds. For a long time, research funding depended, to the extent possible, on two factors, both intensely meritocratic: the applicant’s research record and the quality of the proposed research. Still, it has been indicated that seems about to change.

Referring to diversity, there are those who have listed it as a very slippery term. Likewise, “Diversity” is a word that, in appearance, disguises itself as something positive, because it is positive, in some of its manifestations. Obviously, it is not useful to establish an organization in which everyone thinks the same or only in the approved manner.

Questions that arise

It has been indicated that it is necessary that healthy organizations ally the tendency to preserve with the more liberal tendency to transform. This raises a question, where can diversity be found? Among the ideologies that promoted the “progressive” doctrine of which it is a part, which most often includes “inclusiveness, equity and intersectionality”, is a set of immutable characteristics that typify different groups, such as race, sex and gender and sexual propensity.

Without a doubt, there are real problems with this agenda. In this way, it could be mentioned that the first is that it is dangerous, exactly in the hypothetically designed way to fight. The argument made by those who really have prejudices has always been that the differences between the groups are so great that discrimination, isolation, segregation and even open conflict, including war and genocide, are necessary for the safety of any group of which they are part.

In addition to this, there is another problem, and it is particularly interesting because it has already been created by the same left-wing ideological groups that are driving the diversity agenda: consider race, voice, and gender when taking Diversity decisions is not enough. The diversity that focuses on women is insufficient, because black, Asian or Hispanic women, for example, face more egregious prejudices than white women.
