Second ('Third') Trump Presidency Thread

Carp said:
Again, there is nothing to suggest that they primarily focus on all women flight crews. But even if they did, maybe, just maybe, it's simply a marketing niche? If there is a market segment out there for people that want to be flown by an all female flight crew, why is it somehow a bad thing for this airline to fill that void? Again, the only thing that matters is if the flight crew are qualified pilots.

WHAT?

So they are just lying - Ok.

And yes, I agree, the only thing that matters is fully qualified flight crews. When you restrict your hiring to 'all women crews' you are telling people 'qualificiations' are not your priority.

And again - This is statistically true. Outliers exist and we should encourage those to excel in these areas. But when you restrict hiring based on things like race/sex you are ignoring qualificiations as the sole driver.

I have a litmus test.

Launch an all woman run airline. Pilots, crew, maintenance, the whole shebang.

Launch an all male run airline. Same deal.

In 5 years see which one out performs which. The data will tell you all you need to know.

In all likelihood, there would be very little difference. Plane crashes are very rare in general.

Is Hooters DEI? Or is it meeting a marketing niche?

HAHAHAHAHAHAHA - Oh dear lord.

Now I know your scraping the bottom of the barrel here.

But Hooters is not DEI because the qualifications of the patrons that go into Hooters is to see cute girls with nice tits. The DEI of hooters is actually hiring fatties or flat chested women.

It's a brand to sell sex as way to get customers in the door. And thankfully, I'm much more comfortable with someone unqualified bringing my plate to the table than landing a plane in a snow storm

Statistically, despite the low number of crashes, the rate of increase is telling.

So then you both think women should not be pilots. Or if they are, they should only be paired with men.

I mean stop beating around the bush and just say it.

When did I say that? You are again not understanding basic nuance.

All I've ever said is I want the most qualified people in these positions. When you advertise that you care about things like 'Diversity' 'Inclusion' 'All women crews' you are doing anything but caring strictly about merit.

If there is a private airline designed to bring women customers in the door by specializing in all female flight crews, ie they only hire women flight crews (again there isn't one that exists to my knowledge), that also is not DEI. It's a marketing niche.
 
And finally, I'll say it again. If it comes out today that all these women are MAGA supporters and that the owner of the airline donated a million dollars to the Trump campaign, thethe will flip his tune in an instant.

Hooters is most definitely missing out on higher quality servers buly refusing to hire men or small boobs

Again, if there is ANY prioritization of bringing in talent due to demographics rather than merit, you are lowering the bar of competence.

The entire country has spent the last decade obsessing over DEI hiring, and we are seeing the slow degradation of our systems that have histrocially operated magnificently. This is not unique to air travel but certainly very consequential in terms of human tragedy

I dont want women in combat military. I don't want them as fire fighters. I don't want them ad NFL players. You are free to call me a sexist but you are wrong

Now this I fully agree with - And this is not sexist at all.
