Anyway, my complaint is that a lot of DEI flavored stuff is very very lazy.
A fundamental issue is that once a person has been raised, you don't get to raise them again. You can't parent a grown person - even if they need more parenting. Social punishment only works inside a socially cohesive group. The shame and anxiety you create with social punishment may be exploited by someone else.
Anyway, I'm sure some DEI groups are coming to terms with why anti-woke trolling is so effective, and I hope they find a good way to tell that story.

Getting lost in the narratives at this point.

Whereas someone who donated $0 last year and $0 this year has donated $0.
It'd be pretty weird if the former got worse press than the latter.

Your napkin math is one demonstration why a focus on narrative can prove misguided. It can matter very little how genuine their intents were if in practice they materially helped a significant amount.
