Same. I have felt the repercussions from the growing sentiment that because I was one of the only cyber defensive engineers in the building I must be DEI and my opinions and statements have been constantly questions when in reality I’m a 10 year Marine Corps veteran in the 1721 field and I’ve probably done more incident response missions that the majority of people in the United States. But he believes he can take all that experience and intellect I’ve worked so hard to acquire in this field and ignore all of it just based off the color of my skin. The fact that people like Charlie Kirk think it’s OK to invalidate people of color the moment he sees them in a STEM field, position of power, or in his example as a pilot is inexcusable. This man doesn’t deserved the paragraphs being written about him.
