DIVERSITY IS GOING TO GET US KILLED
Powerline ^ | 15 Jan 2024 | John Hinderaker

Posted on 01/15/2024 2:26:30 PM PST by Rummyfan

More evidence that the federal government has gone stark, raving mad:

The Federal Aviation Administration is actively recruiting workers who suffer “severe intellectual” disabilities, psychiatric problems and other mental and physical conditions under a diversity and inclusion hiring initiative spelled out on the agency’s website.

“Targeted disabilities are those disabilities that the Federal government, as a matter of policy, has identified for special emphasis in recruitment and hiring,” the FAA’s website states. “They include hearing, vision, missing extremities, partial paralysis, complete paralysis, epilepsy, severe intellectual disability, psychiatric disability and dwarfism.”

Why in the world would the FAA actively be seeking employees with “severe intellectual disability” or “psychiatric disability”?

The initiative is part of the FAA’s “Diversity and Inclusion” hiring plan, which claims “diversity is integral to achieving FAA’s mission of ensuring safe and efficient travel across our nation and beyond.”

Sure. People with severe intellectual disabilities and psychiatric disorders are just what we need for safe air travel. How crazy are these people? The general decline of standards across our society, which in many cases is due to “diversity,” is already causing aviation problems, as in the case of the Boeing door plug that blew out on the Alaska Airlines flight. I seriously doubt that anyone who has to fly, or wants to fly, has any interest in diversity, either in the airlines or at the FAA.

This report from FAA received a lot of attention (110 replies) yesterday on FR. This is a Powerline rehash second-hand. Who needs it?

Diversity is white genocide on the installment plan so yes, it is going to get a lot of people killed.

Is there any hope that this plan was produced by someone sick of wokeness who wanted to show the world just how crazy things could get? Something like catching your kid smoking a cigarette so you make him smoke the whole pack in hopes he’ll get sick from it and never smoke again.

In macro, diversity hire Heels-up Harris’s decisions could yet kill millions across the globe.

I saw federal job annoucements back in the 90s for operations research analysts, a job that required 24 semester hours of college mathematics including calculus. The announcement was restricted to the mentally handicapped.

You don’t have to be crazy or retarded to work at the FAA.

But it sure helps.

The person who came up with this idea should be named and then fired.

Qualified and competent people with civilized values and work ethics should be welcome anywhere.
But that's not what we are facing.
What we have is not at all what "diversity" was sold as.

And some fear AI. A psycho having anything to do with transportation is murder.

Considering that the bug in the Edgar suit piloted an interstellar spacecraft (albeit with a crash landing), I’d probably fly on that plane.

The Left destroys everything it touches...in this case, it doesn’t matter how many innocents have to die.

It is. Looks at the number of deaths of Americans caused by illegals already.
