I would feel some anger and oh yeah “(insert name of race) rage”. This has been going on for years. You throw this out there like nothing was happening to incite diversity hiring... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sqwakvfr Posted June 29, 2021 Share Posted June 29, 2021 In some cases Affirmative Action and/or Diversity Hiring gone too far. The two jobs I would not have a diversity hire are: 1) The Pilot flying I am a passenger on 2) The surgeon performing my operation Just about every job in the US Federal Government has some kind of hiring quota based upon Race and Gender(now it also includes the gender you identify with).

Arabs took & used what was already there. Blacks never invented anything. english common law, freedom of speech, democracy, modern science, institutions;all from the West. Greeks modernized mediterranean / north africa, then Romans. Ancient Egyptians were Caucasians from Near East. western white countries are the sole benchmark for high civilization but losing their way with excessive tolerance. asia / africa/ latin america will never really understand democracy & freedom. its a “ white” thing. computers / jets / cars / spacecraft / modern science & medicine / industrialization / firearms coming originally all from western (white) people. Civilization first appeared in Iraq circa 3000 BCE Were they white ? Edited June 29, 2021 by canthai55 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WhiteBuffaloATM Posted June 29, 2021 Share Posted June 29, 2021 no problem for me if someone has passed a western flying or medical course i never fly with airlines without a near perfect safety record and all pilots being western or western- trained, preferably ex- military. surgeon would need to be same standard...... problem is that stds ARE falling with d&i policies, e.g. sub- std female us navy pilots crashing when they should have been scrubbed in training.....as male pilots were......
