Did you just have a spur of the moment urge to throw your stereotypical comment out there because you think that someone gave you the opportunity? I can't believe that out of all of the varieties of afr. Amer. Women out there that you would choose that characterization to make your point (whatever it is)? I happen to disagree with his post but it's hard to be critical of his when you follow it up with this b.s.
Well I'am glad to explain myself, I never stated most act that way. I did state what I have personally observed living in the South.
If you truly believe it is untrue than you haven't spent much time in the South around AA women regardless if you happen to be one.
The post I responded to was immediately accusing the CA of being an "angry White man", as if this condition has been seen before and is detectable by himself, or the "victim" in the video.
No one knows why he chose the words he used or the tone he presented.
So, to state is was because he was any "angry white man", is just an opinion.
I countered his opinion with the fact that AA women do speak disrespectfully to each other on a regular enough basis to debunk his opinion of "angry white man syndrome" because clearly that syndrome doesn't apply to them.
The narrative that a white man speaking disrespectfully to a non-white is only due to their inherent racism is false, and it is false because non-whites can and do speak to non-whites disrespectfully.
The poster may have some ground to stand on if this CA were at Macdonald's treating an employee like this way about his mishandled order that had too many pickles on it.
But no, a CA driving a 100k lb tube 160mph down a runway with 40k lb of flammable jet fuel in the wings, and some costumer decides they do not need to follow the rules, I'am sorry frustration is plausible other than white man racism.
It was completely absurd to suggest it's because he's rasist, without knowing what the rest of his day was like.
This job is mostly easy, but we've all had difficult days regarding, Mel's, weather, release, ATC. He is an airline Captain and should not have been bothered with her behavior, he also could have have said everything he said with a smile on his face.
Jumping to race is a terribale reflection of this country, of the accusers and the racist.
