Denmark, Netherlands react to Trump's DEI ultimatum
Eat shit trumpo.
That’s all. That’s the only answer we should be giving the orange cunt. We need to consider the US an enemy country until things change, because that’s how they are treating us.
I’m pretty sure that eliminating DEI is against EU law, so I’m not sure how they are supposed to conform (and, of course, they shouldn’t). Maybe sue the US government for breach of contract and move on.
I love that this article expands DEI into diversity, equity, and inclusion. It’s important to remember that diversity, equity, and inclusion are not primarily political devices, but a set of moral ideas meant to improve human wellbeing and harmony. DEI is used as a political device by people who are not driven by a desire for human wellbeing.
Strong reaction from the Netherlands as well: “Meanwhile, a Dutch minister said she was not aware of any Trump orders to firms in the Netherlands, but warned that similar orders targeting Europe create “more uncertainty” for them.”/sarcasm
As a US citizen, I really wish the official reaction was just:
Fuck off.
That is a very insightful comment and I thank you for sharing it with us all - and it bears repeating:
Diversity, equity, and inclusion are a set of moral ideas meant to improve human well-being and harmony.
Therefore, to be opposed to diversity, equity, and inclusion would imply that one is not driven by a desire for human well-being.
I will remember this. Thank you. (Nice username!)
TIL Equity isn’t always regarding to money. I thought the E in DEI stood for equality until now.

Nice thanks.
If you want you can add it to a post with  like this:
Suing won’t have any effect as the US can simply refuse to follow the rules. There is a simpler way: don’t do business with them. Let them find the hard way that the world can and will go on without them but they can’t go on without the world.
As a US citizen, I consider the current administration an enemy, too.
I feel like every conversation with someone from another country I have to preface it with “sorry, I hate his guts too”
Just to be clear for you and the people replying on this thread, we don’t hate americans, we hate the asshole and his goons. I don’t think you in particular should say sorry, unless you voted for him or didn’t vote at all(while being able to), that is. But if you could vote and voted Dem, we don’t think you have to be sorry.
Many hugs to you guys!
