Nobody prevents them from getting a job, as long as they pass the interview like everyone else.

Yeah sure, because having a disability, the wrong skin color or wrong gender was never the reason for not getting hired.
DEI itself creates the situation where having the wrong gender or skin color was the reason to not get a job.

You cannot fight racism/sexism with racism/sexism.

A loss of privilege isn’t racism/sexism.

What would your solution be?

Getting hired based on your skills is not a privilege. It's equal treatment. And that's the solution.
So yes. Throwing out the vulnerable onto the streets, to promise a future where those who can afford it can be made to function as good as healthy people, to earn their human rights and dignity with cold hard cash, like everyone else. The rest, who cares... they don't have a voice even while they live, so nobody will ask about them when they no longer do.
