A truly repugnant conservative ex friend of mine posted this on my timeline and told me that it was soooo "informative". Bitch please. You do know that I AM DEI RIGHT?

I disagree. To them it is anyone that wasn’t hired based on qualification.

This administration is clearly anti-DEI.

This administration has “hired” numerous people who are clearly unqualified.

If therefore makes no sense for the administration to be anti-DEI on the grounds that it means unqualified people get hired, because they obviously don’t care about that.

The only explanation is that they see “DEI” as something else.

All the unqualifieds are white males.

Not saying that.

I’m saying that “we have an issue with unqualified people” is clearly BS.

A common theme I hear is the conspiracy of how a “DEI hire” prevented a legacy hire (nepotism) and they’re upset about it.

Seriously, if I were from another planet and wanted to know the sex and color to choose in order to get a legacy airline job, I’d take a snapshot of any crew room, class photo, or upgrade class photo and I’d choose white male any day of the week.

These white dudes who can’t get a legacy airline job aren’t not getting the job because of their dangly parts or pasty skin.

So even before Trump, why the attack on women and minority pilots?
 
It has been exactly 2 days since someone completely ‘mid’ questioned my qualifications and said raising the age limit is going to magically solve the issue which we haven’t even determined if the recent accidents are even related.

The bad news is that the minimums are higher today than they were 15 years ago, but no one wants to talk about that.

Please, great sage of aviation, share with us your wisdom:

But he’ll be the first guy complaining to his union “bosses” at the first hint of a reroute into an off day.
