If you need to hire someone specifically because of how incompotant and you need representation what do we think is going to happen.

I honestly don't have a problem with the spirit of affirmative action, assuming standards aren't lowered.
If a black guy and a white guy both apply for the same opening, and they have absolutely equal credentials, I can get on board with giving it to the black guy on the grounds of historical marginalization yada yada. The problem is quotas, and the attendant punishments imposed by not filling them, especially when it comes to critically important jobs that other people's lives depend on.
There is already a critically low amount of people to fill such roles, and arbitrarily shrinking that already tiny hiring pool because of some half baked DEI horseshit does not help.
