I’ve seen this too much in the media and other places, and I am kinda sick of seeing people get unfairly criticized or sidelined.
They are, it’s called “Nepotism”.
But nepotism only relates to family or friends, I believe. Not necessarily to someone who’s unrelated. That’s why I suggested the term “familiarity hire” or “cronyism hire”
The phrase “diversity hire” implies that they were not hired for their abilities. It attacks the person looking for a job rather than one making the hiring decision. So yes, it is a slur.
The purpose of phrases like “diversity hire” is to dehumanize and marginalize without ever having to learn anything about the person you don’t like and you won’t bring about inclusion by embracing those tactics, but it is noticed and called out, but it is done as a conversation and against the individual doing the hiring, not against a group of people who were hired and did nothing wrong.
At least that has been my experience.
“We are all family in this company” -> We don’t have non-white relatives.
We are all family
so youre going to treat me like shit and expect free work from me
Now that is the bonus we promised on hire.

Just curious what you’re going to do about it, if anything?
Hire POCs, raise awareness regarding double standards
If you “hire POCs” just to spite people who are opposed to diversity hiring, you are proving their point.
I didn’t say it would be done as a spite

If you know and understand all these abbreviations and special terms, then you are deep in the mud already. To know if this or that may be a slur cannot rescue you anymore.
I suggest to look for a whole new circle of friends.
It’s not my circle of friends, and I am not taking about myself. I am about talking other people and speaking for other people
