I earned professional certifications in accounting, internal auditing, fraud examination, government financial management, financial services auditing, and forensic accounting when I was 30, 32, 41, 45, 47, and 48.

https://newsone.com/5859444/conservatives-dei-pete-hegseth/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: White America has thoroughly convinced itself that merit is the reason white men have overwhelmingly dominated every major industry in the nation for all of its history as opposed to patriarchy and systemic racism. Meanwhile, clearly underqualified white men are invisible in that world, which is why none of them seem to notice how often white men are able to fail upwards. . .Hell, when Barack Obama first ran for president, the leading narrative of Republicans (who were trying their hardest to pretend they were not racist) was that Obama was underqualified with only four years in the U.S. Senate and eight years in the Illinois state Senate under his belt. Immediately after Obama’s two terms, the same Republicans and white conservatives gleefully elected a white male president who had not a day’s experience in governing, lawmaking or judiciary work. Yet, during the most recent presidential campaign, Trump supporters repeatedly called VP Kamala Harris a “DEI candidate” who is woefully underqualified for the office of commander-in-chief despite her eight years as San Francisco’s 27th district attorney, eight years as California’s 32nd attorney general, four years as a U.S. senator and four years as vice president of the United States. These are examples of racist “DEI” narratives as they relate to the world of politics, but it can easily be applied to white conservatives’ attitudes in the corporate world and the general workforce as well. If the person in a position of power or influence who is perceivably underqualified is Black or a woman (and especially a Black woman) it’s DEI. If the perceivably underqualified person is a white man, well — that’s just America.)
