I mean, we could also just not treat race/sex as though it's a job qualification in and of itself. But that would probably be asking too much.
The problem is that white people were already doing it. Not in yesteryear. Not in the 1950s. Todsy

DEI isn't a 'job qualification'. It's deliberately contracting white people being racist.

Eg. Look as Trump pick for defense. The ONLY reason why he is there is because he's white.

If you don't do something like DEI, all that happens is that highly incompetent white men gets all the jobs. Unfortunately, that what colour blind means in America

This not an endorsement of DEI. I'd prefer that the ACTUAL problem is dealt with, instead of band aid stop gaps like DEI. But racist don't want to be called racist so this is what we got

As if the still male-priest-only Catholics and their pope ever had a good word to say about Trump or the current day Republicans. But of course when Protestants say it it gets more attention in the USA.
The pope called out Trump this week and is now evil, as decreed by High Lord Trump

The FCAS will fail because it's run by countries that would run a lemonade stand to the ground or more likely regulate it to the ground.

The GCAP the better of these two is too short-range and will get picked apart on the runaway by hypersonic missiles.

The NGAD is getting delayed, I can't find news on the F/A-XX. Yes the US and China fight with systems of systems in mind and I am sure the rest of the world will model them as well. Yes, I know the NGAD flew in 2020, but no one wants to pay for the production lines so we got B-21s, and nuclear missiles which are likely more versatile and impactful in innovation.

Russia can't make a fifth-generation fighter in full production let alone six generations theirs would have the worst stealth, and best range out of all of them.

China has caught up to the US in... 2020, but with J-20 production, they will likely beat back US production goals for its F-35s since their labor is cheaper.

Fuck my life relearning Mandarin is hard.

I think they somehow heard me when I joked a couple days ago that Rushmore should be remade to be Trump, Musk, a second trump, and a third Trump.

On second thought, scrap Musk and put in a Big Mac instead.

In New York they recently unveiled a replica of the back house where Anne Frank hid from the nazis.

How fitting for the current state of migrants in America.

The part that gets me is the complete abandonment of the mutually beneficial deal. It's just straight up "we will take as much as we want from you and you just have to sit there and take it or else"
Is anyone going to be at all surprised when it's time for the "or else" and that guy backtracks his wannabe tough guy rhetoric?

Pretty poorly worded poll, but still
The kids aren't alright.
You fools! Your precious strong leader aint gonna be there for you. When the chips are down or will use you when you're no longer needed. Just remember: that you are choosing this and effects those you love and care about.

Principal Skinner was right afterall.

Joking aside; I'm really not going to see the end of this, am I? Even if I live another 50 years. *sigh* Thanks a lot algorithm.

I could hope that darwinism does its job and these tools don't get to reproduce, but that's what anti-abortion laws are for, ey?
