You do realise that the demeaning attitude and ostracisation of them is increasing the risk of this.
There's no reason to use it as its currently used except for self masturbation. But in the end it just creates more victims.
Empathy and sympathy is what's needed for almost anyone that's troubled. Because they probably have lacked it which turns them into desperate people.

"Diversity hires" are the last thing Blizzard needs to improve their product; Blizzard needs quality hires, even if 100% of them are from one group. Basic human decency should be a complementary trait that needs no mention.
That is why people in the West, mainly the US, think that being a leftist is about defunding the police, diversity or whatever other modern buzzword comes to mind. They never knew what leftist politics are because they never had the chance to witness them and are therefor clueless when it comes to reckognizing them.
As if their current practices are based on "merit". Don't be so naive. This is exactly why they're being investigated in the first place. Women and other minorities have been passed up for promotions and raises or being hired into new positions in favor of "the boys" (AKA the pals and buddies of the ones in a hiring position). In this case, "diverse candidates" just means everyone will actually be considered and have a fair chance.
You're not judging people based on the color of their skin, you're acknowledging that they've been historically and systemically fucked over. Being "color blind" means you ignore all the struggles that they've had to go through, and their parents, and their grandparents.
???? Except being a minority comes with having a different perspective on things, a potentially beneficial trait over just being more of the same that the company already has a ton of. Here, read this quote:
This right here is exactly why it's important to keep workforces diverse. When you have a homogenous mono-culture (also known on the internet as an "echo chamber"), things that are produced may not fully represent your audience the way you would like. There will absolutely be large groups of people (known as minorities) who have their culture and interests ignored by your product in favor of the mono-culture. And you know what? That's not the mono-cultures fault, because they don't have any other experiences to pull from. That's why you inject them with people who DO have other experiences, so that the product you create is that much more complex and rich, and can reach a much wider audience of people.
I love when the world crumbles around predatory men in power
It's common in propaganda: the other is always bad, you're always good.
Now the trend is white male -> bad, the rest -> always good no matter what.
All the bad in the world is because males are in positions of power, if females were in positions of power there would be no wars, no conflict. It would be paradise.
All the racism is from white people to the rest, ALWAYS. Although you can go to Japan and see what is probably THE MOST racist and xenophobic society in the world. Or you how in Africa black people had also white slaves. That's forgetting that Africa was the main source of slaves because their own people was enslaving and selling people (mostly people from other tribes).
The worst thing is that this trend of "minorities are beings of Light" is permeating on the soceity without people noticing that's also racism/xenophobia/sexism, because it's still attributing certain qualities to the people depending of their skin color/origin/sex.
