I've started wondering if Diversity isn't just code for "non-white" and Inclusions isn't just got for "non-straight".

Don't let flydc comments scare you away.
There is a concept called "virtue signaling". Basically people or organizations jumping over themselves to show everyone how "great" they are at something. The funniest example was i think it was pepsi that spent a few million on a superbowl ad to show everyone they donated 100k in water.
