Bottom line, it's basically the exact same intentional misinterpretation that the right does with DEI.
IE what DEI actually calls for: Look for candidates everywhere, give a shot to them all regardless of race or background.
What they act like it is: "You have to pick the minority candidate no matter how underqualified he/she is".
Same concept as the left wants for our candidates. What we want isn't an auto force out the old guys... we want actual fair competitions that picks candidates by their actual abilities and skills, rather than just the assumption that the person who's had that seat for 30 years, should keep it over a new person that wants the job.
No actually works on more. If you grind a human into a seive into salt water, pour the salt water into a busy walkway.
After forensics is done in there... the cleanup crew also organizes it into sponges, Mops... and all kinds of tools.
