Human rights are inalienable no matter when and where they exist. Slavery was not OK just because it was something that was prevalent in the ancient world, for example. Women being treated like livestock who are owned by men is not OK, just because it's a part of some ancient (or current) cultures - but once again that's mostly a function of patriarchy and not the sort of balance that exists in nearly all indigenous cultures. This balance is relative, to be sure, and varies from culture to culture, but even Australian aboriginals are considered to be egalitarian by anthropologists because they have no chiefs or other forms of centralized control, and no social classes. Differences in status are earned and not transferrable to offspring.

Diversity does lead to greater productivity but only when leadership is prepared to manage the other things that go along with what is in many industries a very fundamental change.

"This isn’t to say that there is no business case for diversity, but that the mechanisms by which diversity creates value are far more complicated than what most people understand. Obtaining any lasting benefit from diversity requires not just the presence of a diverse workforce but also effective leadership that can manage conflict, create cultures of inclusiveness characterized by psychological safety and growth mindsets, and make organizational change where needed to support a diverse workforce. In other words, the business case for diversity only appears after hard work to transform its many costs into benefits, hard work that few companies are actually willing to do."

And, that being said, I'm not interested in getting any further into a discussion with you about politics or political correctness or really anything at all. You are generally rude, dismissive, entitled, condescending, and belligerent without actually being able to support what you have to say, and I get enough of that from other guys like you who are all loud talk and no substance. It's pretty pathetic but also not something I'm willing to engage with any further. Life is too short...
