I’m going to wear one. It will either a) **** you off. Or b) you won’t care. Either way it’s not my problem, as I express my support for an entire community that’s been ass raped by white people since the 1700s. I’m fine with the pendulum swinging to an extreme in the opposite direction. Maybe in 100 years it will settle down to ops normal and no one will care what your (insert bias here) is.
BLM belongs in the same trash bin as the KKK and other hate groups.
Can we find a way to express support for people, without endorsing the organization?

The workplace is not a forum for either side of a political argument. Business should attempt to offend no one. Only way to do that is NO PINS for either side. Debate your political views on your off time without pulling your coworkers into the argument involuntarily.

Wait, are you saying that no good can come from talking to people and establishing a dialogue? Thats exactly why we are where we are now. No one is speaking to each other. It only makes the problem worse and destroys the possibility of finding common ground because people simply dig in deeper on their position.
The work place is not the place to "dialogue". I will conjure up my Nostradamus inner feelings and predict a law suit for "hostile workplace" environment before this is all done.. Probably coupled with a social media expose by one side being offended by the other.
Already posted the ATL incident by Frontier where the gate agent outed and denied boarding FAM because he wanted to wear an American flag face mask.

Of course its not your problem because you are virtuous and on the side of "right" and anyone who disagrees with you is wrong and can go eff themselves. That about sum it up? Don't wanna put words in your mouth.
BTW..."ass raping" may be your cup of tea, but I can state emphatically that I have never engaged in that sort of behavior regardless of color....."not that there is anything wrong with that". See you libs change your opinions on what is right and what is wrong(ass raping) only to suit your narrative!! Kinda like your screen name. Is it OK to use that R word? You have been called out on it before as being offensive but you just don't care....talk about tone deaf? Why yes, yes sir you are.

Furthermore, a dialogue of this nature has no place on the flight deck, or work in general.

Why even take the chance? There's no upside.

I couldn’t agree more. This $h!t should not be sanctioned by any airline, or allowed to be worn by any crew members. We should not be displaying support for Biden, Trump, BLM, Blue Lives Matter, or any other political/social justice group. Airlines and flight crews should not display any bias, it is just to polarizing. A pressurized tube is not the place for this crap. It is irresponsible.
