      Sorry but likening underrepresented voices with the Ebola virus is unhelpful, to say the least.https://twitter.com/G_S_Bhogal/status/1049375745922027521 …

      Diversity is a hard sell because it confers no benefit in itself. You can make a zoo more diverse by adding the Ebola virus. If the left wants to encourage openness toward those of other cultures, it should focus less on promoting diversity and more on promoting common humanity.

      I wasn't likening the two. I simply used Ebola as a counterpoint to the assumption that diversity *in itself* is a good thing.

      You seem to be drawing some sort of similarities. Moreover, I don't think your assessment that "diversity in and of itself has no value" is valid. https://www.wonolo.com/blog/50-must-read-articles-on-diversity-in-the-workplace/#.W7utCKVnQqA.twitter …

      The site you linked to makes very tenuous arguments about diversity benefiting *businesses* (not the general public). It also acknowledges that, even in this specific area, diversity creates many problems (so, is not necessarily a *net* benefit).

          Why does benefit to businesses not count as a benefit? Anyway, search for diversity in any sphere, any field and you'll find it. Here's one... The Difference: How the Power of Diversity Creates Better Groups, Firms, Schools, and Societies.http://bit.ly/2OgFxcb

          That's a review of a book that argues that diversity is intrinsically good... In any case, even if diversity *is* a net benefit, the benefit is too intangible to sell to the public. The left tried, and we got Trump, Brexit, etc. I think it'd be better to emphasise commonality.

          As for you inferring that I was comparing minorities to Ebola, I'm sorry if I gave you that impression -- It certainly wasn't my intention. I simply thought an extreme example would be more impactful and illustrative of what I was trying to say.
