""The disfavored groups, No. 1, obviously, would be white males, and I think they've been discriminated against. And it's it's like a lot of people are, 'Oh that's fine. That's fine.' No, it's not fine. It's wrong.""
""If you talked to 100 white men, they wouldn't feel the same way as DeSantis. The governor is out of touch with people, and that is the bottom line.""
""But that is not the same as trying to socially engineer certain outcomes to the detriment of groups that some of the intellectual elite disfavor.""
Florida Governor Ron DeSantis signed legislation that prohibits counties and cities from funding or promoting diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) initiatives. He described DEI as an ideological construct that discriminates against white males. DeSantis argued that while some believe DEI is beneficial, it is wrong to discriminate against any group. Critics, including NAACP president Evelyn Foxx, contend that his views are out of touch with the broader population. DeSantis also mentioned discrimination against Asian Americans in university admissions and emphasized merit-based evaluations.
