Current Thoughts

The current president has gone on record stating that DEI is partially responsible for the plane crashes in DC and possibly Philly as well. When asked to cite his sources on this, his response was "Because I have common sense".

Really Mr. President? "Common sense" told you DEI was responsible for that tragedy? "Common SENSE" told you that? Are you sure it wasn't the Executive Orders you passed that absolutely gutted our Current Government Offices and left the FAA with less than half of it's necessary staff?

For the Record FAA has never gone on a DEI hiring basis, every applicant goes through extreme rigorous analysis to make sure they're even fit for the job, then 4 years of extremely intensive training, most of which won't even make it past the first day of training. The Department of Transportation is not to blame here, nor is it the terroristic attack of a Transgender Pilot who had extreme dysphoria that particular day. This is the result of incompetence in the highest level of power, and targeted blame. INNOCENT PEOPLE DIED BECAUSE OF TRUMP'S EXECUTIVE ORDER.... but he won't take responsibility for that. Nope, this is a golden opportunity for him to paint a giant target on the trans community and DEI on the whole so that he can try and get more people backing him.

Allow me to share some insight.

A nation that attacks the rights and freedoms of it's own citizens is not a democracy or a republic, it is a tyrannical dictatorship, and I don't believe America tolerates Tyrants and Dictators. Maybe we should do something about that so as to ensure we retain our constitutional rights.

Also Reality check, Politicians don't give a FUCK about the common person. They will lie, cheat, and do whatever they need to do in order to push their agenda. They will target others just to make sure they garner public opinion, to give themselves the power to do whatever the fuck they want.
None of us mean a damned thing to the people in charge, they're just pushing to get what they want and their agenda. Promising a brighter future with a smile on their face and a Knife held behind their back.

This government does not say "ONE MAN RULES EVERYTHING AND YOU DON'T GET A SAY!" It says "WE THE PEOPLE" and that should mean something... if anyone is reading this and happened to Vote for Trump... I wonder if you'll start to feel regret for what's happening now... for everyone else. If it's ok to Pardon protestors who were at abortion clinics and storming the capitol, then that gives us the right to protest as well, we should not be in danger in our own country because a handful of people are nostalgic for "The good ol days".

"This must have been because of DEI."

Translation: "This happened because a black person must have been in the room. A cis white man never would have made this mistake"

I see no other way of interpreting the blaming of DEI as the cause of any disaster. Only a sick person would make these sorts of statements.

Exactly right, and they're trying to claim that one of the pilots, (the helicopter pilot I believe) was a transgender woman who was experiencing extreme body dysphoria that day and tried to end her life by crashing into the plane, thus making it an act of terrorism. Because DEI. *for the record the father of the helicopter pilot speaking out against this bullshit rhetoric*

It is this kind of speculation that leads to more deaths. We need answers and solutions to fix what caused the crash. By following convenient "solutions", conservatives demonize innocents and leave the actual wounds to fester. Regulation is written in blood. Trump and his supporters are washing away the blood with a hose called "anti-transactivism" and "anti-DEI." More crashes WILL happen during this administration. It will be their fault. They are killers.

Absolutely right. "Common sense" won't hold up in the court of law either.

If I *hypothetically* were to shoot a disabled veteran, and then claimed "I have common sense, they're a veteran, that means they're dangerous so this was self defense" GUESS WHO IS STILL GOING TO PRISON FOR MURDER?

But you will NEVER see a politician accept responsibility when they fuck up

Common sense is a politician's way of saying, "just don't think about it."

It is propaganda, and we need to fight against it by changing what the "common sense" people have is.

Ah yes, le evil DEI ruining everything, AKA the racist and transphobe's excuse for being racist and transphobic while at the same time claiming they're not racist and transphobic. I wonder if Trump is going to reveal himself as an "Anti-Woke" anytime soon. Cause the way things are going, that's where it's gonna end up I bet. I'm not American but I really feel sorry for you guys for being stuck with this looser for another 4 years.

oh i'm sure it's already happening. What I find hilarious is that for all the time he was campaigning he claimed he wasn't associated with or intending to use anything from Project 2025 or the Heritage foundation.... and then literally day 1 it's all coming out swinging.

Kinda like how Elon Musk promised he wouldn't take side or support any politicians and look at where he is now. Also didn't Trump at one point claim to not even know what Project 2025 was or even heard about it before being asked about it? I think he said that in a debate or something.
WhiteCrest

yep, he claimed he had no idea what any of it was, then later came back saying he'd seen some if it and called it extremist behavior, and that he wasn't associated in any way.... and now here we are.

Also yeah Elon Musk, the same guy who asked about buying Wizards of the Coast because "DnD is too woke"

Basic divide and conquer. They want the masses focusing on trans people and people of color instead of the rich billionaires who are looting the treasury and snagging our wallets on the way out. The people need to wake up and throw all of those bastards out of office and make this oa government OF, BY, and FOR the PEOPLE, not the oligarchs!

DEI is a heavily flawed concept with a worse execution.

However, the idea that DEI results in disproportionate numbers of insane "not straight white dudes" people who actively sabotage their work and kill themselves & others is a complete fantasy.

In an ideal world, that angle would be laughed out of the room. But enough stupid people took this and other ludicrous things seriously and "debated" them that its adherents are now the owners of the room. Our world is now held top to bottom to the standards of children on the playground.

Agreed that DEI is flawed and needs a lot of work, but also using it as an excuse to shift the blame is blatantly lying to the american public and wrong. this sort of abuse of power is disgusting, god I hope he gets impeached fast, it'd be amazing if he was in office for less than a month before he was removed again XD.

Too many terrorists control too much of the government for him to be removed.

America continues to act like having a maverick President who hates Americans, has previously made it clear he was willing to "suspend the Constitution", and has wildly misplaced classified information in the midst of Russian conspiracy accusations, is totally normal. So I won't be surprised if he makes is to 6+ impeachments (while only 2 other Presidents ever made it to 1) before we realize he is proooobably not a legitimate President and begin seriously considering how he illegally obtained the office.

if there's anything to be gained from this (unless he declares himself king) is that this is his last term in office, he won't be allowed to run again

The whole country shouldn't be held hostage by some elderly trust fund baby's temper tantrum.
Personally I kinda think their using him as a distraction while they do some really questionable things behind the scenes.

And this is why DEI should instead stand for "Donald's Extreme Ignorance."

I mean... seriously. I knew it was going to be bad, but how did he fuck things up -this- bad in less than a month?

I don't know, something about this doesn't make sense. From what I've been seeing the chopper was about 200ft higher then what it was supposed to be. It never should have been at the level the plane was at to begin with. They're also hiding the name of the pilot but not the other two people in the chopper.

A lot about this is extremely fucked and weird, but of course never miss a chance to make it a platform for political targeting right? >~> (sarcasm)

To be fair both sides are guilty of that. Thats politics in a nutshell, make the other side look bad so you stay in power. For now all we can do is watch and see what happens.

absolutely correct on that regard, but that's also part of the problem. Politicians aren't "of the people" they're "of the 1%" no matter which side you look at it's always been rich people running the country and shoving their ideals on the public, the ones that win are usually either the ones that lie to appeal to the public the most, or spout the most shit about their opposition look bad so that they seem like the less problematic vote.

You'll never hear a story about an american president who had to work a 9-5 every day trying to make ends meat to pay rent, but they'll damn sure try to talk like they can relate.

Yea your not wrong there. Believe me the last few years have been a utter bitch and a half for me. All we can do for now is hold on and hope things get better. Though the way the world is going, I am not holding my breath.
