What is DEI? A simple explanation:
There’s an empty Fruit Basket. The
Left said, fill this Basket with Different Fruits. The Right contended
that, this basket should only be filled by either Apples or Oranges or preferably
ONE Fruit only, especially G.I. Certified. The Centrists’ came and opined
that, this Fruit Basket shalt only be filled by Fresh Quality G.I. Certified
‘Different’ Fruits. The Right agreed with the Centrists that, as the Fresh
G.I. Certified Different Fruits were acceptable to them. The Left said, so
what if a Fruit is not Originated, not indicating its Geographical Indication;
put those Fruits also in the Basket which are Not G.I. Certified. The Right
didn’t accept this. Centrists sided with Right, as Centrists did a lot of
investments in DEI, so they wanted a good ROI. Companies like Blackrock accepted
this Centrists + Right formula, to put Different Fruits under DEI of
those who’ve G.I. Certification. This made Left to oppose both Right
& Centrists.
Alas, at the end of the day, DEI ended!
BECAUSE, the Left didn’t know what random Fruits they were putting in the
Basket. The Right didn’t know that the Geographical Certification was all bought,
manipulated, and overrated. And the Centrists got their work done in any case, remaining
on the good books of everyone!
No one calculated or asked
this question that:
this empty Fruit Basket
would be arranged for whom? No one calculated or asked this question that:
people with Acid Reflux can’t eat citric fruits like Oranges; those who’ve Diabetes
would prefer Black Current over Apples or Oranges or Grapes; and so on, with
different permutations and combinations, this empty Fruit Basket ought to have
been arranged.
Alas, that didn’t happen! ☹
