What the Hell Is Up with Dilbert?
Simple. Workplace complaints and management priorities have changed, and Dilbert followed.<p>When Dilbert started, the government wasn&#x27;t yet training employees how to &quot;interrupt whiteness&quot; [1], or Coca-Cola how to &quot;be less white&quot; [2], or Cigna simply forbidding hiring whites [3], nor did academia require mandatory diversity pledges for new hires and promotions [4]. Dilbert is doing what we are told art is <i>supposed</i> to do - hold a mirror to society.

Merely that Coca-Cola the company didn&#x27;t require those specific slides. But the slides are completely in-line with rhetoric championed by diversity experts routinely hired to train employees.)<p>[3] <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.washingtonexaminer.com&#x2F;news&#x2F;cigna-critical-race-theory-training-dont-say-brown-bag-lunch-mindful-religious-privilege" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.washingtonexaminer.com&#x2F;news&#x2F;cigna-critical-race-...</a><p>[4] <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.wsj.com&#x2F;articles&#x2F;the-universitys-new-loyalty-oath-11576799749" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.wsj.com&#x2F;articles&#x2F;the-universitys-new-loyalty-oat...</a>
