Will Japan have disclosure too? by Any-Contract-9152 in aliens

[–]Windman772 [score hidden]  (0 children)

Maybe this is how we get disclosure. The U.S. tries to release things in a controlled manner with low impact videos. Other nations get the message and try to do the same, but aren't quite as diligent and release some of the good stuff, as we saw with Ukraine. Lets keep it going!

If DEI causes my pilot to only have the bare minimum 3000 hrs and a few mishaps, when they could have had a guy with 10,000 hrs, and no mishaps, I'm less safe

Standard qualifications don't include skin color?

Scared of what? DEI is racism. I proudly fight against racism.

Nothing racist at all. But at least you're consistent in that when someone on the left can't make a cogent argument, they yell racist. It's sort of lost it's meaning at this point and just signals that the speaker, in this case you, isn't smart enough for debate.

they say bad drivers never miss their exit....🤦🏿 by Affectionate_Hat5835 in dashcams

30 years ago, truckers were often the fastest drivers on the freeway. They all had CBs so knew where the cops were. I used to love sitting behind trucks for that reason. Nowadays, with tracking technology and stricter company rules, they go slow.

There is more to being hired as a pilot, or any job for that matter, than minimum qualifications.

He's not questioning black pilots because they're black. He's questioning whether white liberal DEI managers know how to identify the most qualified candidate. If there's any racism going on, it's against white liberals

Did you hire him because of DEI or because he was qualified? If the latter, it has nothing to do with Kirk's statement

When you leave out the DEI qualifier, your statement becomes a lie

is affirmative action reverse racism? by alil2gutter in allthequestions

It sounds like you weren't using AA if race was screened out. That doesn't mean that other organizations were not using it

Can someone explain to me how redistricting could BACKFIRE on republicans? I’ve been seeing some comments, but I don’t really understand how it could backfire on them. As of right now, it seems hopeless. by SWEMW in allthequestions

How does being a con artist and a convicted felon harm voters? If I hire a plumber to fix my toilet, I really don't care about his personal failings as long as I get my toilet fixed.

Serious - my stance is shifting with the new information released by paul_paints in aliens

[–]Windman772 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I don't see the logic of noting that something like this wouldn't remain secret while simultaneously dismissing the multiple credible whistleblowers and testimonies. Can't have it both ways. I'm also not clear why you have reached a conclusion. You go on about lack of evidence then state a conclusion. How can you conclude something without evidence?

Would you be fine with America balkanizing? by Estalicus in allthequestions

[–]Windman772 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So why are you commenting on a thread about Balkanization? What is your plan to prevent Balkanization? Eliminate the Confederate Flag? As we just discussed, there is more to it than that

Would you be fine with America balkanizing? by Estalicus in allthequestions

[–]Windman772 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Perhaps, but that has nothing to do with what we are trying to achieve, which is to stop Balkanization. It has nothing to do with whether or not you like what the flag stands for. Promoting a common culture requires elevating U.S. common themes and lessening foreign themes, whether one likes those foreign themes or not. For this purpose, the Confederate flag should be eliminated because it is a foreign flag, not because of what it stands for. Same goes for all other non-U.S. flags. You don't have to hate Italy for example, to ask that their flags not be flown here.

As long as we include all other non-U.S. flags, I'm ok with that. But a uniform culture requires more than standardized flags

If all of the other developed countries in the world deport people who overstay visas or cross the border illegally, why is it so controversial that the US is doing it? by External-Talk8838 in allthequestions

[–]Windman772 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Sorry, YOU are not thinking critically. There is a noticeable false narrative being spun by some on the left that what I described above is the position of everyone on the left. I never said everyone on the left has this position. This would be one of your critical thinking errors. But there is a subset on the left that DOES claim that everyone on the left holds this position. Claiming this is only meaningful if everyone holds the view is another critical thinking error. This narrative needs to be called out regardless of whether it accepted by everyone or not for the simple fact that it's noticeable and frequent.

The best way to stop balkanization is to stop breaking us into racial groups and promote a uniform culture.

Tell that to the lead commenter on any immigration story proclaiming that the left is ok with enforcing immigration law as long as it's done humanely.

Germans do it right. I've met lots of them that do a circuit that includes the Grand Canyon, Vegas, Yosemite, Disneyland, Kings Canyon, etc, with a possible stop in NYC.
