Guess I'll learn how to sail a boat and take my chances on the ocean next time I want to travel.

What? You don’t want your life in the hands of someone less qualified but got the job anyway to make a quota BIGOT?

The corporation’s have turned against the people, now all that matters is placating blue haired teenagers on Twitter who don’t know what gender they are, and they’re never satisfied.

I don't even get why Airlines pander. Like I don't know many people who are loyal to certain airlines, they usually just fly the cheapest options

"We're going to hire based on ethnicity/gender, instead of who's best for the job" implies that minorities WOULDN'T be considered the best for the job.

These initiatives are such a backhanded compliment to minorities.

Their business is already getting fukked by government, they need to do this so hopefully governments add some lube. Their survival isn't so much dependent on competence at this point so whatever.

BREAKING News: Flight LGBTQDFADJLS took an unexpected nosedive and crashed in downtown San Francisco, killing all people aboard the flight. The impact also destroyed a prominent encampment for the homeless and an LGBT shelter, killing an additional 350 people. The jet was the first of its kind to feature a mixed-race transexual M to F pilot who identifies as a male as well as BLM and LGBT symbols painted on the body in a monumental display of solidarity. Was this perhaps a white supremacist plot to wipe out minorities/lgbt individuals as well as homeless people in one fell swoop? Is this perhaps a legacy of the Trump administration?


More on this at eleven.

Pretty sure it's been said that white women benefit the most from affirmative action.

Don’t forget they’ll expert on to tell us the crash had nothing to do with hiring people based of skin color and genitals and everything to do with racism and sexism and global warming.

This is a fuking safety issue. I have absolutely no problem with my pilot being a woman or a black person. The pilot on my most recent domestic flight was a black man with a Caribbean accent. He did a good job. Smooth flight. But when an airline makes a commitment to hiring at least 50% of one group, it will be virtually impossible for them to not lower their standards to meet this metric. That’s terrifying. WTF is wrong with this world!

More companies that deserve to go broke. This is borderline insanity. The safety of millions of humans should always go to the most skilled/qualified/experienced.

Fuking morons but are we shocked anymore?

Have to fly? "Fuk is this one of the best pilots based on credentials or from forced diversity?"

Have to get crucial surgery? "Fuk is this one of the best surgeons based on credentials or from forced diversity?".

Who's fault is it if a demographic for certain professions leans one way? No-ones fault, it's called fair opportunity.

If Profession X has only demographic Y because they are more interested/apply more and better then so what? Madness.

Groups are not the same. Genders are not the same. Woke companies need to be humiliated and lose business for their idiocy.

Not getting a job if you're more qualified because of your demographic is actual legal discrimination that's being allowed.

NARF! "Why aren't there more female game developers? We need to have more females!" "Because there isn't and men make better games, are more interested in gaming and generally are better programmers. Now fuk off".

I can only hope Boeing starts hiring only engineers who are trained in Critical Race Theory and that mathematics are racist. Women, trannies, and pEoPLe iF cOLoR only, of course.
