We all have inherent bias. Racism has a long history of bipartisanship. However, southern racists overwhelmingly left the Democratic Party in the wake of 1960s civil rights legislation. Southern racists opposed integrated school, buses, bathrooms, etc. and this Dixie crap is a symbol of that

At KDFW....the four bridges linking the east and west complexes are the A, B, Y and Z bridges.
The furthest south bridge is the Alpha bridge and adjacent to it is the Bravo bridge. These two bridges are just south of Terminal E.

North of Terminals A and B, you have the Y and Z bridges. The Y bridge is the furthest north and Z below it making the letters not follow alphabetic order.

They designed KDFW to keep the Yankees as far north as possible.

Yeah..in the struggle to rectify 'structural racism' its much more important we focus on 5 letters and a piece of pavement.

Maybe you would feel better if i had connected each of these realities to 'white male democrats and progressive democrats?'

Talk it over with the wife and let me know and I will update the logic to your satisfaction.

I responded to another poster claiming an instruction such as "Delta to delta just seems like a safety issue" and implied that it was because of their inherent "specialness" that ATL pilots use that argument to defend a non-standard practice. I never made any claim, express or implied, that ATL-based Delta pilots were the originators of this non-standard and ATL-specific term Dixie. Now, I am often wrong about a great many things, but in this case I never put forth any facts to be wrong about other than that Delta has operated safely for many years at other airports (including other hubs) where Taxiway D is referred to as "delta".

Spin it however you like.... but we all know what you posted.

Well, it was more just factual history up until the part about Floyd.

Well MSP and its police dept is the product of decades of progressive democrat policy and governance.

Correction...WHITE progressive democrat policy and governance. Lol.

So who bears the responsibility?

Oh thats right. Orange man bad.

Its hilarious...the children of potus are villified as spawn of the devil....

Yet in 2000 the democrats nominated and nearly elected to potus....a son of dixie...and.the child of a segragationist.

institutional racisim is there. You just have to know where to look for it.
