They attack "DEI" because no one knows what it's about. If they had called it "fairness in hiring", they would have a tougher time attacking it. How would it sound to say you're against fairness?

Similar (but different) with Antifa, which was shortening of anti-fascist. If they said we're in favor of fascism, it might not have played a well.

DEI has been a target for Trump + Republicans the last few months.  They don't really know what it means, just that DEI is 100% to blame for every plane situation for the last few months.

    Women are quite often better pilots from the ones I’ve tried to
    train, more intuitive. Whatever the situation, if the mountains
    and the earth attached to them suddenly get very large, the plane
    doesn’t care who’s flying it, or used to be. Dirt matters.

    Yes, they messed up. Why even mention DEI? The requirements to be
    a commercial pilot are the SAME for all races and genders. Stop
    parroting what the alt right is saying.

    There will be an investigation. They probably check for
    intoxication, enough sleep, distractions, etc. If they're both
    straight, white males, then what? What does Maga have to say
    about that?

    Mistakes, crime, whatever are bad no matter who the person is.
    Why does the right always bring race, sexuality, ethnicity,
    gender into everything? It's weird and cult like behavior.

        How in the hell do you mistake a taxi way for a runway?

        Red vs Yellow signs?

        Big assed white center stripe vs small yellow center stripe?

        Big Numbers and big stripes.

        Two guys or gals up front.

        Has to be a DEI situation…. (removing tongue from cheek).
