#3 Diversity is being employed as the antithesis to democracy, employed in extracting submission of the majority in the destruction of their basic civil rights.

#4 Diversity is being employed as the antithesis to democracy, employed in extracting submission of the majority in the destruction of their basic civil rights.

But the 'privileged' should have no 'rights.'
The antithesis trundles on with a full head of steam.

#5 People who don't understand diversity have been laboring under the illusion that words retain their literal meaning. That hasn't been true stateside for many decades. Things become much clearer when they substitute for "diversity" what the word means today, which is "blackness". Thus, a workforce that is 100% black is also 100% diverse. When someone says a workforce isn't diverse enough, he means it's not black enough. Now that Hispanics have horned into the race quota racket with an ever-growing ethnic quota tied to their increased representation in the census, not diverse can also mean not Hispanic enough. So in future, just translate diverse to mean "black and/or Hispanic", and much that was obscure should become crystal.

#7 Brazil and India have two of the most diverse populations in the world.

Japan and China are among the least proportionately diverse.

Which countries have the stronger economies and militaries?

#8 In terms of diversity of ideas I think it well worthwhile for a conservative or liberal government to have a few outsiders or opposition members around. Even Einstein wasn't always the smartest guy in the room. But the idea that we must have x% of this group, y% of that group etc to truely reflect society is ludicrous. EspeciaLly when it is applied to hiring when you want the best you can get.
