Four years after launching a push for more diversity in its ranks, McDonald’s is ending some of its diversity practices, citing a U.S. Supreme Court decision that outlawed affirmative action in college admissions.

McDonald’s is the latest big company to shift its tactics in the wake of the 2023 ruling and a conservative backlash against diversity, equity and inclusion programs. Walmart, John Deere, Harley-Davidson and others rolled back their DEI initiatives last year.

    Not really. Food that sucks is what you find from street vendors in third world countries that will almost guarantee you get sick if you eat it.

    McDonald’s food is very simple and processing/freezing doesn’t make it “suck.”

    You’re just subscribing to hyperbole to fit in with other people doing the same.

    I don’t expect more.

      More like you’re trying to justify your awful taste in food.

      Their highly processed food and high sodium content are great indicators of low quality food.

      Calling their food “simple” isn’t accurate at all. High levels of processing degrades food quality through stripping out nutrients.

      Just because you tolerate it doesn’t mean the rest of the world should.

      Remember the “pink slime” that made up their chicken nuggets? Ya fucking disgusting.

      Do better.

        Umm, no. I think you’re misconstruing what I say by “it isn’t that bad.” I’m not saying it’s great. But it is decent. Compared to what other people have to eat, you’re not leaving much room to go lower in your criticism of McDonald’s.

        It’s okay, I don’t expect more from you.

        Alright, go away troll. Blocked.
