Stoic. God is real, demons are real. Be a good person, true to yourself even when nobody will notice. Integrity, loyalty, respect, and honesty. Choose love.
Great skit. Very funny. I think we as men need to learn how to hande things without fighting first. When you fight, you lose to your Ego. Ego is what gets in the way of survival for men. Sonetimes it's better to just let the other person be right, even if they were in the wrong. You dont want to fight him becaue he disrespected you. He felt disrespected and something you did hurt his ego and your ego wants to win. You lose to your ego in that instance because it is controlling your judgment. Master your ego, and master yourself.
All of these are on point and great signals or "red flags" that need to be called out and addressed. And it is a two way thing here. Men do this as well, but it may present itself differently than described in the video.
The big one is the refusal to apologize.
Who or what caused the crash is not something either of us are likely the best to even consider for coming up with an answer that is proper. Sure, we could likely make some reasonable determinations on available data, but I dont know the specifics on the craft, it's operational parameters, the conditions and protocols, and I bet you dont either.
But we do know that the aviation industry openly stated their goals were to have the industries optics of representation be less white male and that is to be considered and weighed more than finding the best performance for the needed positions. A truly insane goal to have when the implications are, we will take lesser quality people so long as they are not white men. And that is true nk matter what industry if people are at risk of dying as a result.
So, when I see a (black, Latino, Gay, woman, Chinese, or whatever other under represented group) pilot, I wonder if they are qualified. That is a logical and reasonable question to have for anyone who has to fly on their plane.
But, people who dont think about why say, Charlie Kirk is racist for saying black pilots aren't qualified. Thats not at all what was even said.
Be mad if you want. It js justified, as some people are ignorant and i bet there are people who see woman and automatically have a negative feeling. But that is no different than you seeing a man and automatically feeling negatively. It is the same ill spirit born of ignorance. Yours is a refusal to reason with logic, which to me is more frustrating because you have the capacity to use logic and refuse to. It is denying the gift of intelligence in order to appease emotions or at least avoid having to face uncomfortable truths. Growth thar is meaningful is usually uncomfortable. You know that .
I said that her efforts to try to regain control of the aircraft were futile and that the decision to pray was as justified, it not more than, her efforts once death was certain. I also said that I would not blame someone to die trying to save themselves and others in that instance. I also said that praying seemed like a last ditch effort at someone seeking redemption for their soul and that those prayers did more in that regard than trying to prevent inevitable death.
My overall assessment and indictment was not so much on those that died, but society as a whole, in very broad and general terms. That being, people live there lives as if they don't consider judgment. Which is not good for holding yourself accountable from a moral standing. All humans have a certain requirement for faith. Some find religion to be the best for society. I am of that camp. Then there are the non-religious, atheistic or whatever non-believers, who fill their faith with other secular beliefs. These people have a higher tendency to be swlf centered and an overall net negative for society simply because they do not think they have any reason to be judged once death happens. They live like nothing happens after life has ended. I even went further into saying that they are terrifying at the thought of God knowing and judging them. That is why they don't want to believe. Rather, the want there to be no God, so that they aren't judged. Further, there are people who think that heaven is guaranteed to them, so they dont operate with morally sound principles.
I never made any judgement on the pilots in an attempt to assign blame. I was hoping that we, as a society moving further and further away from religion that has built society to its watermark, could use this tragedy to reflect on what weight our soul has, if any, and why faith in believing it does, makes for a better more cohesive society. It was all just my attempt to help people process the thought that this lady's family heard her final words and her final efforts to save her soul can be extracted from that. I wanted this to be a reminder for all of us to stay ready so you don't have to get ready. Make sure your loved ones know what you want them tk know, because you might not have a chance to tell them later. Instead, I am playing devils advocate to everyone, you included, despite the hyper fixation you have on the oppressor/oppressed framing that is born from post modernism. And if I was saying it has nothing to do with misogyny, it is because when you die, all of that doent matter in any stretch of the imagination, and i am hoping that even you can agree to that being the case. But I could be wrong. You seem to have created your faith with the class struggle woke mob cult doctrine. And yes, that is what it is. It is unfortunate for you and I make no apologies telling you this because it is provable truth.
I am talking to you. You are accusing me. You are confusing things because you have this unsubstantiated preconceived notion that because I am a man i blame a woman for something? I hate that you have that built into your mindset. Not only is it bad for society, but it is flawed logically. People aren't a monolith.
I said I doubt DEI had anything to do with this incident, and this really doesnt seem like pilot error. But, because of the aviation industry and their open admission of DEI policy practices, any person would be justified in questioning whether or not DEI played a role. Charlie Kirk was quoted out of context saying just this same sentiment, and labeled racist and anti-trans and wrongly and unjustly vilified.
Peolple still think DEI was a good idea, and some people still doubt the policies were being implemented, and people who don't tow the line are vilified and made our to be bad people (like the original poster did for me) and this tragedy has been politically hijacked for a narrative and it is very unfortunate.
So there is a lot and I can't help but to think how having such a public lay documented death, is torture for the family.
@WolfgangRichtEU Ummm. No. That ia not how things work. I don't believe thst he raped anyone, but he was found guilty of certain charges, and regardless of what good someone has done, there is a penalty for crime.
You sound ridiculous and scammy.
@Neutral_OC Good on her for being on the lookout, nothing wrong with that. What may have been better is speaking to them and identifying who they are. And kudos to some young adults being involved in the community and interacting with the kids.
I am going to be real with you, at this point of the conversation, if you ain't reading whats already posted, I am not able to type something to get you up to speed, but I will try:
So, I had a plan to bring about something good for society in light of a tragedy that was ripe for political hijacking. I was not able to do so effectively and have found myself being engaged by hostiles from multiple angles.
With that being said, did you legitimately have a question on something I said? I take no issue with providing clarity if you need it, and I definitely appreciate if you have feedback on something I said that is inaccurate or misrepresentative of something else.
Hot take:
It's such a good thing some women are easier on the eyes than others, because they cannot at all fathom a society that jokes!
Apparently, if you dont murder the guy at work who jokes telling Wanda "her sex must be good because her cooking sucks" then you are just as bad as he and Wanda herself are for not fixing this invisible physical system.¹ of oppression.
No wonder they call those weak men pussies! (See below the OPs *illogical take*
NOW,
To all of those who take offense to this: I am glad that you care. Wanda burns everything she brings to the company potluck. Her husband, Ben, is so skinny- can't eat her cooking. But he is ever the gentleman; opens every door for her, holds her hand, and listens to her intently when she speaks. I mean, either Ben is a saint, or Wanda has got the gifts only a lady possess in order to entrance a man of Ben's constitution.
¹ I think the system is called patriarchy, but it sounds like someone weaponizing their emotional response to uncomfortable social encounters under the guise of an oppressor and victim framing. JUST like all post modernist social theory does in an attempt to stifle people and undermine meritocracy.
To the OP quoted here: lighten up toots. If you think a joke being told is offensive, you are shallow. But if the response to the joke from those who heard it doesn't align with your feelings and flawed doctrine, you consider it to be complicity with a fake system of oppression? That is crossing into a dangerous territory pf cognitive dissonance that I sincerely caution you entering. It is tribalism and guilt by association.
Ma'am, you have really got to challenge yourself more. Some of the best jokes are rooted in a form of truth, and if the truth is offensive and oppressive, that's unfortunate, and not something anyone should ever have to apologize for.
HOT TAKE: Out of ten men, one makes a sexuał joke at a woman, two laugh, three fake a chuckle to fit in, and four stay silent. None of them speak up. Later, nine of them still believe they're the "good guys." But from the woman's perspective, the laughter, the silence, the looking away, it all creates the same environment. So when women say"most men are the same," this is what they mean: not that every man harasses women, but that most men help protect the system that does.
Based on scripture, there is one way to the Father and it is Through his son. Good deeds, good works, repentance, and prayer alone doesn't nothing. Belief in him doesn't mean thinking some man was crucified and said his dad was God and was born of a virgin mother. That isnt all that belief in him is requiring, that's not even the important part. The part most Christians fail to realize, is what I started this comment saying. All the feed the hungry and poor and pay your money to the church and go to church and try to live right, means nothing if you don't believe in Jesus.
I can respect that, and am glad you have that faith. May it stay with you at all times and not simply when it is convenient or needed. That is my wish for you.
Also, respectfully, you dont know, you have a belief you are willing to stake your soul on, that is stronger than knowing something in my opinion. That is a spirit of faith that we all have within us, and you have chosen to fill it with something proven to better humanity more than anything else we have ever encountered.
Blessings to you and your loved ones, ma'am.
How do you blame someone for having a vagina? How does that work? And why are you bringing it up? You like to jam clam too? You enjoy a nice warm roast beef taco just as much as the next fella? You just can't help but think about this ladies golden goose huh? Well by God the scissor sisters are cutting up again.
And as far as my cock goes, back off lady!! Its claimed and you cant have it.
But no, I am not saying I would have done any better than she did whatsoever, and may she rest in peace and her family honor her legacy.
But I wouldnt fly an aircraft with others on board it either. I am not a licensed pilot. I wouldn't be able to steal a spot from someone who is deserving based on their performance and other qualifications, because I look the part the industry was working to eliminate from their public profile. See, they don't hire incapable white male pilots simply because they have a look they want. No DEI in aviation was aiming to hire more people that didn't look like that, regardless of their capabilities. So you can see why someone would logically question the capabilities of a female or minority pilot. That was their policy.
Maybe it's your girl/dog brain that isnt able to understand logic here, a logic that i was not arguing at all. It is unfortunate that in my attempt to not have these folks deaths be in vain, you made a non-sequiter and went into politics of the whole tragedy. Very sad, and expected from someone who limits themselves to uni-dimentional existence. Must be that time of the month huh? 🤣🤣 your pussy is clouding your judgment, ya cunt.
There was much more that could have been gleaned from this tragedy. But you aren't willing to have a discussion that has some foundation, credence, and would benefit society at large, because it isnt a talking point. I don blame you for having a pussy, lady. I blame you for being a pussy. Grow some balls, or at least some intellectual integrity. You are an adult, and should know better.
Sorry man. I just get voffended with people who support the whole transgender obsessive social destruction, and I tend to use some instigating tactics just to engage an argument because I find it to be very important that we dont allow mental disorders to control society. Its bad enough we have dykes and fags hijacking months and throwing parades so that they can force their "visibility" on people. Its crazy that people who wanted to be treated fairly and with dignity for their private sexual preferences being known publicly, now have no dignity, shout their sexually deviant fetish out anytime they can, and consider themselves owed better treatment than others, and thats not even the worse part about what they do. The worst part is the homosexual acts they committ....straight to hell.
I bet you thought I was going to say the worse part is the hypocrisy.......well this is no joking matter........it is the sinning and the fornicating those ravenous bloodthirsty queers engage in. For sure.
Anyways. I apologize for trying to rile you up so that we could logically conclude that trangenderism is not something we should support, promote, normalize, defend, or hell, even affirm and recognize. But (and no not the one you like to do nasty stuff with, the one "t" but.....weirdo): it's abundantly clear and should be settled policy by now, there are boy and girls and you are born one or the other and you cant change that by making me lie about it to your face, no matter how many gold medals these men steal while they pretend to be a lady.
Blessings on your journey. I hope you find the strength to do what is right and soon.
Dont comment and run you fruit booty boy!!
Kevin, you cowardly ignorant hive-minded freak. Nobody is targeting trans people. In fact, you sick weirdo, it is entirely the opposite.
SO, LISTEN LINDA:
Have you ever heard of a time referred to as segregation? Back when there were white only and black only public establishments? That happened because of some "targeting." Yet, even back then, there were public bathrooms. Black people had bathrooms, and white people had bathrooms, and they would usually have a boys and a girls room for each, all separate. But nobody had a Trans bathroom. Now, it was messed up because treating someone differently based on their race, just isnt morally defensible. But everyone knew, girls and boys need separate and equal, protected spaces for privacy among other things.
Then along comes some weirdo who wants to make it legal for a man pretending to be a girl to freely and without any concern go into a girl's room based on a 'gender identity' (Local ordinance written into law Charlotte 2016) Thats pretty clever shit for a sick and twisted pervert who wants to go see what the girls are doing when they are exposed and vulnerable and believe that they are in a protected space.
Up to that point, 2016 - 2017 era, wasn't an issue. If people had trans issues then, they handled it, mostly without making a fuss so that they didn't get caught going into the WRONG bathroom. The transformers back then (mostly) werent trying to force society to make way for them, they were trying to fit into society and live their life accordingly. Nobody cared about someone's junk, it was private.
But then, certain people suffering from a clearly establish mental health disorder (DSM-5 Gender Dysphoria) started presenting themselves as another disorder.
SEXUAL DEVIANTS as GENDER DYSPHORIC. Because about 15 years before then, (around 2000) some people who had some ulterior and nefarious motives thought,"Let's taste the rainbow, and hop on the LGB team, and call it LGBT. Then we can use our sexual deviancy and fetishized mental disorder under the guise of social change." We had drag queens. Cross-dressers. They all had burlesque shows at the adult gay clubs. Those drag shows had some of the most beautiful amazing, I mean drop dead spectacular looking bars and whiskey glasses. Those queens liked to keep it clean. But things changed and not for the better.
Post modernism, sexual revolution, women's rights, gay pride, govt funded abortion as healthcare and womens rights, incentived single parent households, promoting sexualization at young ages, rampant pornography, decline in classical religious morality, reliance on government intervention for everything, people scared to tell rhe truth because they dont want to hurt someone's delusional emotion or now they are scared of the mob retribution for speaking against the doctrine, and culture that glorifies rebellion, promiscuity, BBLs, Body counts, egos over souls, deniability over accountability, illegitimate oppressor victim narratives. There are too many people not doing well in America for everyone to be so divided. Nevemind the invaders trying to rob us, or the politicians running debt that will never be paid,.... now we have perverts switching up genders, getting fake titties putting nuts in blenders and apps for gays all day on tinder justice system but no da or public defenders but I won't put it down I won't surrender ask killer Mike, thats Michael render, was that a woman or he is a pretender, wyclef tell me ill be gone till November.
And the transgens began targeting the gays, stole their platform, and have been targeting everything and everyone since.
Which brings me to answering your question.
Yes, I live in NC, right near the beach, BOYYYY!!
@EricR144_DAP@upuntil_dawn So you’re just stupid actually, there WAS a whole movement targeting trans people and some bathroom bullshit. Do you even live in NC
My stance is that people died in a very public and tragic way, and there is a lot of noise that bears nothing for us to discern, and only serves as a distraction.
I have some ideas about what we should take away from this incident, ideas that make sure that regardless of what or why it happened, perhaps their deaths won't be in vain.
But that isn't what people want to hear. So here is the stance you are asking about.
I dont fault anyone for questioning if the deceased female pilot—the one who went to her last breath screaming and fighting to save her own life and the lives of everyone else on board—by extension of the failed public appeasement campaigns and implementation of DEI policies throughout all of the aviation industry, had been put in that position ahead of someone who was more qualified and could have possibly had better outcomes, as a result of her meeting a non performance critical metric like being a female or a minority.
I'm nearly certain that in this particular incident, race or sex based categories were not implemented in the DEI form that had a lot of people highly concerned.
So, if someone says, "damn I wonder if she got that job because she was a Latino female" and there was a major industry push to change the optics of the industry in lieu of aiming for performance; and then they connect the possibilities of a better more capable pilot being snubbed for optics??? And people— a whole family with two young children, have died, —it makes logical sense and is not oppression, and the patriarchy, and chauvinistic and all that other bull shit.
The right is neglectful pff half the country and rhe left is overly concerned with controlling the other half the country, and partisan politics is what I blame for all of the bullshit arguing here. This lady's last words, begging for her life, forever memoralized and playable for her loved ones, has got to be torture. I hope that they find the clear and quiet message inside all of this loud static.
