Wait wait wait

The white South African guy whose family profited ~~during~~ because of apartheid is RACIST?

Are you sure about this?

So aside from the comments being a dick move, he’s not just wrong on the his assertion that diversity in and of itself adds to less safe conditions at the airlines.

In fact, the opposite is true. I work in a field where failure investigations are routine. More diversity, especially in environments such as this where safety is paramount, is absolutely necessary to prevent groupthink. This isn’t an opinion, it’s a fact. The Navy and NASA have said as much.

When everyone thinks alike, no one thinks at all. There are no dissenting opinions - this is what leads to accidents.

But of course Elon doesn’t care - he wouldn’t allow the color yellow - for caution - and the backup beeps on things like forklifts at his Tesla plant simply because he “didn’t like” them. He doesn’t give a shit about safety.

So whatever Elon, but maybe you shouldn’t be working in human spaceflight.

If DEI is so bad, please provide evidence that DEI initiatives result in minorities consistently fall into the lowest performers in their roles.

After all, we’ve had these initiatives for a long time, the evidence should be overwhelming by now right?

Put up or shut up Elon. If one of the richest people on the planet can’t provide evidence why bother listening to this drivel.

Ah yes, Elon Musk, famously someone who flies commercial airlines all the time.

At this point, I assume he’ll start spouting inaccurate and disgusting “science” that non-white brains are literally smaller any day now.

1. Anyone want to tell him that the inclusion of who is white has changed drastically in the last century and will again?

2. Fucking Neanderthals had bigger brain capacity than we do today.

Man was raised as a rich white boy in full-apartheid South Africa and never grew up - of course he's going to be scared by people who don't look like him, or act like him, or thing like him.

Mask-Off MuskRat! Mask Off.

ya prick

And I thought doors that fall off mid-flight would make flying less safe but what do I know ...

I remember when you had to do Jackass/Tom Green stunts to get noticed for being an offensive asshole without a skillset.

So freaken lazy these days. All you have to do now is be born rich and say dumb offensive stuff on twatter

Yes, Elon. Airlines should only hire white people. Because white pilots have never crashed an airplane. Logic.

Member that time when they were like "what's the main problem with everything, Elon" and he got all freakazoid looking and was like "THE JEWS" member that? Like, I think maybe in hindsight Tesla and SpaceX and the related US Government agencies and everyone who still has an account on whatever the fuck it's called now should have peaced out.

Maybe Musk should work harder on making his own automobiles not the most accident-prone cars on the road.

It's funny how he is falling in line with "Russolican" ideology. I'm sure his private call with Putin has nothing to do with that.

Diversity and flying are two completely different issues.
