  1. But it was never totally merit-based to begin with. DEI arose because skilled minorities were being overlooked because of their skin color. There remains a large divide in wages between Black and white employees. https://www.epi.org/unequalpower/publications/understanding-black-white-disparities-in-labor-market-outcomes/ https://www.pewresearch.org/short-reads/2023/08/31/black-workers-views-and-experiences-in-the-us-labor-force-stand-out-in-key-ways/ Now, did DEI go too far in places? Probably. But it's not fair to say that Black people in highly-skilled jobs are automatically not qualified, which is the rhetoric I got from Kirk and his compatriots like Matt Walsh quite often.
  2. I disagreed with him because I found him to be a dishonest nut who was recently embracing more and more extreme right wing content.
  3. Charlie's position was that minorities were automatically unqualified for jobs like that. Otherwise, why would he be questioning a Black pilot? He deliberately sowed doubt in people who had worked hard for their job. If you walk on a plane, see a Black pilot, and automatically think that person is unqualified for the job, ask yourself why you think that. It's an incredibly harmful position to have. You didn't address that Charlie shared and agreed with Steve Sailer's writings.
  4. Oh stop. This is disingenuous. As recently as June, Charlie was posting about agreeing with open white supremacist Steve Sailer. He was happily embracing "scientific" racism and IQ gobbledygook. The only difference between him and Nick Fuentes was that Charlie supported Israel. He encouraged people to raise money for the Paul Pelosi attacker. He told Taylor Swift to "submit to her husband." He by no means should have been killed. I do appreciate him going to college campuses, but let's not pretend he did it to engage with the other side. He was famous for fake arguments and logical fallacies. He did it for sound bytes and "gotcha" moments. Don't sanitize what he was about.
  5. He repeatedly called for trans people to be "dealt with" man
  6. “Put your sword back in its place,” Jesus said to him, “for all who draw the sword will die by the sword." Matthew 26:52
  7. I've got Pittsburgh. I think their defense will clamp down on a bad Seattle o-line after a pretty mediocre week last week.
  8. Trump didn't even lower the flags to half-staff.
  9. It's more unlikely than you think. Kirk has had prominent arguments with followers of Nick Fuentes over Israel. Fuentes' crew is extremely unhinged.
  10. You have RFK Jr. in this administration!
  11. I like how we have zero proof the shooter was a Democrat and your agitators like Sean here are feeding it into you. If you can't see that he's part of the problem, you are never going to figure it out.
  12. I absolutely did not and please go back to that thread and check me.
  13. Dude, Elon is tweeting “democrats are the party of murder” and you think IM making this a “pissing contest?”
  14. I don’t think anyone on this board is cheering this on
  15. Most major Democrats have already condemned it?
  16. He was an anti-abortion preacher who voted for Trump
  17. *clears throat* TWO DEMOCRAT OFFICIALS WERE KILLED IN MINNESOTA AND NO ONE CARES
