Why is it dumb? It highlights, in a very satirical way, just how sick and twisted that entire ideology is and how we as a company are losing focus on what's really important.
Personally, I don't want the company to be left-leaning or right-leaning. A dollar from a Bernie Bro is just as good as the dollar from a MAGA Dude and I want to welcome them both to fly on us. You don't do that by swaying to one side or the other... plus you're alienating a large group of your employees whichever way you choose to sway. That was one thing I really appreciated about the company in 2020 when the company expressly prohibited BLM masks and all that other nonsense. I don't want to see BLM paraphernalia at work just as I don't want to see the MAGA paraphernalia. We should be united under one banner at Southwest Airlines. DEI accomplishes none of that and only serves to alienate people and we seem to be losing the plot with respect to why we exist as a company and the basics of what made this company successful to begin with.
