Summary
Costco’s board rejected a shareholder proposal to end its diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) policies, arguing they foster respect, innovation, and cultural alignment with customers and employees.
Shareholders claimed DEI could lead to lawsuits citing “illegal discrimination” against white, Asian, male, or straight employees, referencing legal cases like Students for Fair Admissions v. Harvard.
Costco countered that its DEI efforts comply with the law and enhance its culture, rejecting claims of legal risk.
The proposal will be voted on at Costco’s January 23 shareholder meeting.
Why should kids be a factor at all unless a woman chooses to go that route? They don’t exist to be breeders. That’s their own business. They can make that decision for themselves, not have access (or lack thereof) to education determine it for them.
You oppose current feminism because it doesn’t prioritizing breeding?
Who is going to have kids then? Not that I personally care that the human race is dying out but this is why.
Sorry to edit again but there is absolutely nothing wrong with encouraging motherhood. And you’ll notice that women who prioritize kids are looked at as failures in egalitarian societies.
The way you use the word breeding proves my point so perfectly. Women are not animals bro.
My partner and I both have a BA and an advanced degree. We have multiple kids. We have a beautiful life. This was made possible because of our degrees and fields we went in to that made taking care of our kids possible. Lack of education wouldn’t have created our life.
If you want people to have kids, we need PAID parental leave of no less than 3mo for every working person and universal tax-funded childcare.
I don’t blame women for not having kids. Your position shifts the onus on them. They need our support. And some people don’t want to be full time parents! Ask all the men you hold in high esteem if they’ll fill that role.
Prior to modern day feminism, only one parent needed a high paying job to have a family. It’s a capitalist idea intended to double the workforce and lower the value of labour.
And no, men aren’t natural caregivers. Look at what careers men tend to choose.
