Women and minorities represent less than 10% of pilots, yet were factors in four out of eight crashes (50%).

[TimFitz]

Do you actually believe this article? And the guy who wrote it is a law school graduate but not a practicing attorney and I can readily see why, if this article is an example of his critical thinking skills.

4 accidents out of 8 accidents huh? Over what period of time? Why not 4 accidents out of all of them, do you know how to even determine that?

I don't know what is more comical, his article or you all are gobbling it up the way you are.

So if DEI is allegedly responsible for four airline accidents in recent years (with 2009 as an outlier), what was causing the dozens of fatal U.S. airline crashes before 1963, when airlines had not yet hired a single Black or female pilot?

All 25 of these crashes happened when:

• Cockpits were 100% white
• 100% male
• Long before “DEI,” affirmative action, or diversity hiring existed in aviation

The objective is race baiting. Which should be fairly obvious from the thin content and non sequiter arguments.

It should also be obvious from the Trumpster posts, that Rupert Murdoch’s sleazy tabloid hit their intended target and triggered bigots.

Which was the intent.

DEI lowers standards. This is a real issue.

You playing the RACE CARD, doesn't change that.

[TimFitz]

Since 2000, he clearly stated that.

The point was that DEI lowers standards. Thus looking at accidents from BEFORE dei would not be relevant.

Yes, I suspect that he does understand teh concept of linear time and can select out CURRENT TIME PERIOD from ANCIENT HISTORY.







Like I said, yeah, the point is about DEI. DEI wasn't a thing in the 1930s. It is retarded to bring up accidents from then.

If the point was something like, "ONLY NON-WHITES HAVE ACCIDENTS", then your counter point would have been brilliant and hit like a freight train.

In the real world, it's shit talk.

Which is pretty much all libs have, when it comes time for them to defend DEI.


Because DEI does lower standards. We all know it.

ANd it is racist discrimination and oppression of whites.

Which is WHY you like it.

Oppression of whites???????

I have never suffered anything or had an opportunity withheld or anything taken away from me by DEI or on white people.

Nor have nearly all white people. Which is why no one can actually show any evidence of widespread white “supression”.

But you can find incidental claims by various white folks to that effect.

But no systematic evidence at all.

So the tabloid piece is laughably false, but Ypu fell for it anyway because it pushed your buttons.

You make my point over and over again!

My "buttons"?

1. My point about dei lowering standards is not a "button" is a valid position on a valid issue. That you feel a need to minimize my legitimacy is you feeling insecure about your ability to support YOUR position. Also you being an asshole.

2. I saw nothing seriously challenging the report. Are you referring to the retarded question about why the study did not include accidents from the 1930s? Generations before dei was a thing?

3. The way that you think I have made your point, is you being insanely delusional. And an asshole.

It’s a button, and Rupert Murdoch pressed it.

I’m not the one p

You’re the one defending this BS, not me.

There is no evidence of a ‘valid” issue here.

But it is a play to the idea that black folk are inferior by definition.

Remember this: Ashli Babbitt didn't have a gun."

And that fits with the high level intelligence officer , Ashli , never shedding a single drop of blood .

Another Staged Event .

 

[DonGlock26]

If you can produce a clean, verifiable dataset that includes the race and gender of the pilot-in-command for every commercial airline accident since 1963, then we could at least assess whether it is even theoretically possible for race or gender to be evaluated as factors — notwithstanding the fact that the NTSB does not consider these attributes because they are non-causal which is precisely why no such dataset exists to my knowledge.

What we do know with certainty is that the pilots-in-command in commercial airline accidents prior to 1963 were exclusively white and male, because that is what law and airline policy required at the time. This was prior to the Civil Rights Act of 1964, when the United States was still legally segregated and women and Black pilots were structurally excluded from commercial airline cockpits.

Is that a no?

 

[DonGlock26]

It can't just be human error, it has to be pilot error. There are a lot of "humans" involved in the process of getting a flight from point A to point B and because they are human are susceptible to making a mistake.

We are discussing only accidents attributed to human error by the pilots. Read the OP article.

 

[Correll]

I’m not the one p


Rupert pushed your button.

You’re the one defending this BS, not me.

The policy in question is DEI. A report has been linked that looks at the recent crashes, (since 2000) attributed to pilot error and notes teh over representation of non-whites and women.

That is not a button pushing, that is serious evidence. You are the one trying to use emotion in place of a reasoned argument, by crying racism like a retarded child.

There is no evidence of a ‘valid” issue here.

Here you assert your position. Nothing cited, no logic, just assertions and insults.

But it is a play to the idea that black folk are inferior by definition.

When people are hired not becasue of their qualifications, but to "check boxes", standards and quality of job performance suffers.


When it is a job like PILOTING, the drop in quality translates to dead people.

YOu playing the race card, to protect your leftard agenda, at the cost of human lives, is you being a piece of shit.

Keep that in mind when you’re selecting a doctor. Med schools have lowered standards in order to meet their black quota.

Although SOME blacks would have qualified based on merit, the MAJORITY of blacks accepted to med school would have been rejected if they were white.

DEI should not be allowed where the main purpose of the job is to protect lives.

 

[candycorn]

The sample size is small. But precisely because crashes are so rare,

Rare.

That Army Blackhawk pilot who caused the crash in DC that killed 67 people was a woman.

Army Blackhawk pilot in DC crash failed to heed flight instructor’s command 15 seconds before deadly collision: report

Along with the error, officials found that the pilots “stepped on” some of the air traffic controller’s instructions, meaning they accidentally cut him off when pressing the butto…

nypost.com

It is said that she “failed to heed her flight instructor’s warnings”. This makes me wonder, was she being moody because she was on her period? Was she upset because the male instructor was “mansplaining” to her. Maybe they were dating and she was miffed at him for some reason? One thing is for sure, you have no place in aviation if you cannot be calm and rational why flying.

Are you on YOUR period?

Quiet piggy. White pilots are far more responsible for crashes more often than blacks or women

Explain how DEI lowers standards.

You have played the Race Card since this country was taken.

Really? 95% of plane crashes in the history of this country have been by white pilots.

 

[Deplorable Yankee]

I analyzed every US commercial flight crash with onboard fatalities attributed to pilot error since 2000: Women and minorities represent less than 10% of pilots, yet were factors in four out of eight crashes (50%).

Shocker

When you lower standards, just to put a vagina or a minority into a seat you're asking for trouble...
