David Mamet -- who's written some very famous screenplays in his day -- isn't a fan of Hollywood's efforts to diversify ... slamming the initiatives as "fascist totalitarianism."
The Pulitzer Prize winner -- known for scripts such as "Wag the Dog," "Glengarry Glen Ross" and others -- took a firm stance against DEI initiatives during the Los Angeles Times book festival on Sunday ... where he appeared to promote his memoir.
David made it clear he's unimpressed with Tinseltown's attempts at fostering diversity, equity and inclusion ... slamming such efforts as "garbage." He added ... "The [film industry] has little business improving everybody’s racial understanding as does the fire department."
