Oh absolutely. Minorities will disproportionately suffer and die, but nothing close to exclusively.
More broadly, disadvantaged people will suffer and die. Minorities are already overrepresented among the disadvantaged and under the overtly bigoted policies of the Trump regime, they will be even more overrepresented, but that's just something of a bonus to the would-br oligarchs. They're excited at the prospect of culling poor people, pretty much regardless of the details.
But not clearly defining DEI is key.
The actual goal is to effectively not only legalize but actively encourage discrimination, and that's done specifically by not clearly defining DEI so companies will tend to generally avoid hiring monorities at all, for fear that they'll be punished by the Trump regime.
Turns out that like so many other things, all of the noise about "replacement theory" was just conservative projection. They claimed that there was some sort of determined effort to eliminate whites because they were right in the middle of a determined effort to eliminate non-whites (and non-cis, non-het, non-christian, etc.) and as they do, they assumed/pretended that everyone else is as evil as they are.

Because the Department of Transportation is now a wholly owned subsidiary of ExxonMobil.
What it meant to me was that I had to unpin the link to my lemm.ee account from my Firefox home page.
It could've been the case that I would've had one less instance to choose from, but in the aftermath of the announcement, I found two new instances I wanted to try, so I'm actually one ahead in the long run.
And that's it.
And he's right.
By any measure, the exidtence of that great of a disparity in wealth in a society is evidence of the failure of the systems on which that society is built.
It's akin to if you were responsible for caring for a field of crops, and you ended up with a field in which two or three plants were enormous, bloated and overgrown. a few were more or less healthy, snd the rest were weak and shriveled and starving.
That rather obviously would mean you'd failed.
One of the very few things that virtually all federal politicians - Democrats and Republicans alike - agree on is that Ted Cruz is an asshole.
Really.
So literally what happened here is Trump said, "I want to violate the Constitution" and the Supreme Court said, " Okay — go ahead."
And that's it for the rule of law in the US.
All that's left now is to tally the mass murders along the way to the inevitable collapse of the US, and to hope that our descendents can build something better out of the rubble.
Not to necessarily shift blame away from that scumbag sex abuser Cuomo , but I'm betting that the Democratic party leaders are behind this.
Yes.
Corrupt as it was, it still maintained some degree of independence. It does no longer.
Think of it as something akin to the difference between the period when two separate corporations were part of a cartel in which the larger of the two was by far the dominant partner, and the situation after the larger one has bought out the smaller, fired the entire C-suite and most of the employees and sold off most of the company assets.
