#1 Oh, looking at at the headline I thought this was about the anti-Asian discrimination. But it's not. I guess they don't have nearly as good a lobby in DC.

#2 In some important ways, the anti-Jewish stuff is a proxy for all the politically correct/DEI stuff, Elmomoter Mussolini9149: Asians, Caucasians, men and boys, Christians, heteros3xuals. The same people doing much the same kind of harm — except for the mob violence and the blood libels — just to another non-preferred category of human, and needing the exact same fix: Treat Everyone Fairly, not just the preferred groups. If you want to do round-up articles on that (under Great Cultural Revolution, Page 3: Non-WoT, I think, unless someone has a strong reason to put is in different category) I’m fine with it. You could probably find a dozen articles a day on the subject, which would overwhelm the topics we’re following already if not grouped under one headline. Or you could get that information from any number of Conservative blogs that specialize in that kind of thing — we’ve always assumed here that Rantburg is only one of our Readers’ sources, answering only some of their interests.

#3 Just at Instapundit in the past half hour there are three links about DEI at Brown University and an anonymous BigLaw firm, the Brown ones pointing out that Brown’s surrender on the Jewish issue will require them to establish merit-based policies — overall, not just for Jews. And that’s without scrolling deeper into today’s posts there, let alone other sites like the PJ Media family or Legal Insurrection or Bongino Report or Rantingly, that I occasionally check as I have the time.

#4 Hundreds of million dollars in fines sounds tempting but I hope the DOJ doesn't settle for it because I have a bad feeling that most of it came from taxpayers in the first place and it won't hurt the people who actually did the discriminating. Those people need to go to jail.

#7 somewhere some lawyer is working on a class action case where all the white males who have been DEIed out of a promotion get reparations from a Govt or a big corporation
