Conservatives Had to Get Weirdly Racist Even When It Comes to the Airplane Freakout

[HomerJS]

Blame black people. I'm not surprised it's who they are. If that's a broad brush I would say it wouldn't be if you non-racist conservatives would speak out against this shit.

Conservatives Had to Get Weirdly Racist Even When It Comes to the Airplane Freakout, Huh?

This bizarre strategy is actually part of an alarming new trend.

Yes, and they blame trans girls for ruining women's sports. The overarching point being that they not only wrongly blame groups they don't like for problems that exist, they also blame them for problems that don't even exist. There is no problem with American commercial aviation. The only problem is an aircraft manufacturer is blowing its qualify control.

I imagine every Black airplane pilot after reading that was like:

I can't believe they didn't even mention Musk. Who called DEI in airlines as DIE, it will kill you. Directly accusing deaths because of minority pilots.

Elon Musk, not fucking Rob Schneider.

Charlie Kirk is a world class POS.

Rob schneider? Seriously?
No one gives a FF what he has to say

Now that you mention it, it seems that Trump is much like an Archie Bunker on steroids mixed in with a dash of Goebbels, a large side of Mussolini topped with a cute curly Ghadaffy turd on his brightly shining noggin.

They're just being racist, unfortunately nothing weird about it.

Because there's a subset of liberals that are weirdly obsessed with these c and d level right wing shit for brains. Which only helped them make money and turn spewing their shit into careers.

I bet our resident f-list celebrity name dropper cares.

 

[Pens1566]

Lol, Like Schneider has any career left to sacrifice ...

 

[HomerJS]

Waiting for the obligatory, "It's just dumb, no racism found"

Despite the continued corrosive effect on black people in this country.

 

[Greenman]

In the U.S. 93.7 percent of professional pilots are White, and 92.5 percent of professional pilots are male.
That's quite the statistic. How do they keep everyone else out of the industry?

For the very same reason that, until Obama, 100% of our Presidents were both male and white and, until JFK, 100% were Protestant.

Amazing, eh? Welcome to America!

 

[nakedfrog]

It costs around $75-100k to become an airline pilot.

 

[WelshBloke]

All they have is their culture war. It's pretty sad tbh.

 

[iRONic]

Now when the military jet jockeys retire they don't want anything to do with the shitty US airline Industry! Lol

That's not even a little surprising.
Pilots on the other hand, are surprising. The Air Force has an even smaller percentage of black pilots than the public sector. In other branches of the military black participation tracks reasonably close to population percentage. So why not pilot's as well? Is it racism? If so how is it so entrenched in the Air Force and not the other branches of the military?

They pay you to become an Air Force pilot.

 

[nakedfrog]

They pay you to become an Air Force pilot.

Okay.

 

[skyking]

Only about a third of airline pilots have a military background. It was 2/3rds back in the 80's. The old trope is old.
Embry Riddle and other schools provide the bulk of professional pilots these days.
A small but consistent chunk come from working up the ladder as flight instructors.

The racism question was about right wingers blaming black people for airline accidents.

Is it?

The Air Force Academy has had a long term problem with Christian nationalism. Maybe racism is a sidecar to that problem.

Ya think? it is the front wheel of the tricycle!

No, it's nothing to do with race.

Anyways let's move on to the next obviously racial issue and pretend like it's anything other than the institutional racism that's plagued this country since it's founding.

 

[skyking]

I've seen DEI videos about it. Makes me want to throw up. It's the most chicken shit version of "some people are saying".

How could they being causing accidents when there effectively aren't any?
