"Anti-diversity" edit
This phrase seems to be doing a lot of "work" and carrying a lot of meaning which may not accurately reflect either the source linked or the article itself.
I do acknowledge that the sources cited & concede to the previous archived discussion that there was an anti-diversity effect (since most Puppy noms were white men vs the unaltered list), that the Sads and the Rabids cannot be treated separately (and that therefore Beale was de-facto the most prominent Puppy), etc. However "anti-diversity" probably doesn't belong in the lede since it requires other explanation that belongs in other parts of the article. "Anti-progressive" might work since it's both accurate and is a phrase found in the Atlantic article, but that might already be implied by "right-wing". Maybe we should just link a few more sources to the phrase? Nautical Mongoose (talk) 05:17, 18 May 2023 (UTC)
- I concur, removing this phrase. Ageofultron (talk) 22:16, 12 July 2023 (UTC)
