Recently, a United Airlines CEO states that they are focused on diversity,equity and inclusion. However, conservatives view this as something negative, citing that DEI tends to focus on someone’s racial background rather than their qualifications. However, liberals on the other hand believe that those chosen are just as qualified.

The Daily Wire calls it the “DEI rot” in the airline industry. A United Airlines Boeing 777 narrowly avoided disaster after a miscommunication between pilots led to a dangerous situation during takeoff. The incident, kept quiet for over two months, was finally disclosed in February.

A lot of conservative anger over DEI has originated via X. Here's an example (not related to airlines though): https://twitter.com/EndWokeness/status/1747151784676614588

How much of this outrage is based on legitimate concerns?

On the other hand, Mark Cuban has been defending DEI:

I hope the next Republican DoJ starts prosecuting DEI as a violation of the Civil Rights Act.

how… DEI doesn’t have any actual authority’s in most companies just makes recommendations that are usually ignored

It influences hiring decisions. Also, an argument could be made that diversity training creates a hostile work environment.
