Communist? As in someone for a classless society after capitalism? There are overlaps in those who profess belief in that and the "DEI" cited in the link, but it is important to note the distinction between the two.

Communism could also be argued to strengthen actual human connections over the ones destroyed in service of the economy and the State that is ultimately in charge of managing that economy.

These are no doubt broad statements without hundreds of years of nuance, but I think that "DEI" being communist for having a plot to destroy human connections in service to the "State" is false. I don't disagree with the disastrous effects that "DEI" can have, and I think it speaks of an economic system in decline, cognizant of its failures but unable to address them in any other way.
