Y'all are looking at this all wrong.  These things that the Trump administration is doing are good things.  They are so blunt forced, so arcane and idiotic that a LOT of people are going to get hurt, including a LOT of Magats.  It's the only way they are going to learn.  Get out the popcorn and let them all fucking burn.

They are so fucking stupid that dotard could burn their kids alive in front of them and the fucktards would blame Biden.

Had a laugh this morning thinking about Congressman Wesley Hunt. MAGA through and through who also just so happens to be a Black, military helicopter pilot. He now gets to publicly attack Black, military helicopter pilots as interior and the reason dozens are dead. I'm sure his family is super proud.

Meh. I was 100% for Harris but if we are going to do this I want the whole got-damned thing in flames in four years. I want it to be so bad that we run all the tech bros out of the country, get lobby money out of politics all together, and start taxing the rich again like it's 1972. I want us to be just as embarrassed of this time period as the Germans were about WW2. I want history to treat the Trump name like Voldemort. I want anyone with the name Trump to change it out of shame/fear of violence.

The only way to get back to paying people livable wages is for the entire house of cards to come down. I would rather it be now than when my daughter is trying to raise a family and I am too old to help.

Lol. Im with you but good luck. That's not how selfish America works. Reconstruction out back after the civil war should have told ya.

That's exactly how it works. The first Gilded Age shoulda told ya. Shit changes when things get bad for white folks. As long as white folks aren't suffering en masse it's business as usual. They are starting to suffer but Trump told them it's those brown folks fault. So when there are no more brown folks to blame out come the pitch forks.

I think it’s obvious no colored folks were involved at this point.  You know that’s the very first thing that was ‘investigated’.  And it would have been released faster than a J6 felon…

He specifically mentioned disability dei so they probably didn't find any Black folks but found someone in a wheelchair to blame.

Is this one of those Orwellian things where now they're trying to redefine "common sense" as an umbrella term that includes dog whistle racism?

You're catching on.

Nono, that's the part I agree with you about. Shit has to get bad, real bad, for there to be change. We're in total agreement. 

The part I'm disagreeing with is what comes after. Whatever solution we have to living wage, fixing our problems, etc, will be done in a half ass way so that these problems rear their heads again and never quite go away for the forseeable future. Just like the way the North let the South erect statures, reject education materials in schools about the Civil War, etc.

Americans doesn't do long term shame, basically, is what I'm saying. You thought we solved racism and were trending in the right direction with the abolition of slaves, the civil rights act, etc. And now 60 or so years after that, we're seeing the same shit pop it's head up in DEI. BLACK PEOPLE DID THIS BECAUSE IT CAN'T BE MY FAULT. Same thing with women. "Oh, now that women can have careers of their own or choose to be with women, they don't have to settle for any POS man? Well, that's not acceptable because I want to get laid and be the boss. Better outlaw all that shit and get women back in the kitchen...maybe the classroom."

Yes there are already talking heads on Fox saying DEI could have played a factor. 

Congressmen too. Just grotesque humans all the way around.

I’m guessing the discussion in the White House is whether or not they should proceed with today’s dictatorship orders or wait until tomorrow out of “respect” for the victims.

This is 100% the play.  Not 99%, 100%.  Anything bad happens on Trump's watch?  Blame it on "DEI," which isn't even a code word for "if you just hired only white men, nothing bad would ever happen."

And this.  Again, it is not any more complicated than this.  The world is falling apart because 1) we let people other than mediocre white men have a shot at jobs, and 2) giving women some options and security means they don't have to settle for mediocre men.

The common element here is not white men, but MEDIOCRE white men.  A black man with an incredible resume gets the SECDEF job?  Well, that was DEI.  See, what we really needed was a white male with the most lackluster, pathetic resume a SECDEF has ever had.  MAGA has made it clear: 100% of the time, given a choice between a highly qualified minority or woman, vs. a horrifically mediocre white man, the mediocre white man will get the job.

"MAKE AMERICA GREAT FOR MEDIOCRE WHITE MEN" is what should be on those fucking hats.

If I’m not seeing a personal impact, does that mean I’m not mediocre?  If so, i don’t think I want to know the answer to the natural follow up question.

Hegseth says helicopter crew was experienced, Trump not on same page apparently 

One of the two chopper pilots was a woman.  DEI clearly just murdered all these people.  Women should not be performing any jobs other than mother, nurse, or schoolteacher.  Federal legislation on that topic incoming in 3, 2, .....

Four years under Biden and zero major airline disasters. Not even two weeks in and Trump caused one. Yes, caused.

they have found away to say : "something bad happened? must have been a black guy."

 

and while we are discussing air safety..... as the airline industry has become more diverse, air safety has improved. 

Let's look at the 70s and 80s from AI :

  • In the 1970s, there were about 6 fatal airliner accidents for every million commercial flights. 
  • In 1972, 2,373 people died in 72 hull-loss accidents, making it the worst year on record for aviation. 
  • 1985 was also one of the deadliest years in aviation history. 

i guaran-damn-tee white men were ruling the roost during that period.

 

Let's look at the last 40 years..

https://www.cliffordlaw.com/aviation-accidents-and-incidents/

1982 - 3593 aviation crashes 1585 fatal injuries

1992 - 2355 aviation crashes 1273 fatal injuries

2002 - 2020 aviation crashes 1386 fatal injuries

2012 - 1861 aviation crashes 1007 fatal injuries

2023 - 1451 aviation crashes 280 fatal injuries

notice a trend.

things were "not good" as they say during the "golden age of white men"

To be fair, no competent person of any color, creed, or gender would want to work for Jerrah, so it's kind of a self-fulfilling prophesy / feed-back loop kind of situation.

i hope somebody - and Pete is perfect for this - is a continual thorn in their side like this. punch them right back in the face every time.

nobody else ever seems to have the balls to play the game under the new rules!

i just wonder if Fox News will have Pete back on now that Trump is POTUS.  he was on several times last year during the leadup to the election. but that was to defend Biden and support Kamala. i'm not sure if they want him back in full on attack mode on Trump's incompetence.

Counterpoint: considering the alcoholism and PTSD, those old numbers are way better than you'd think.
