What is really happening, is you are paying too much attention and looking for any little thing to get your feathers ruffled. When you are awake (maybe even when you are sleeping), you are looking and listening for anything to be offended about. What a miserable existence.

You don't have to be looking when people say 'black people are ruining America " or "all gay people are groomers " or "women should be raising kids, not flying airplanes."

I'll take things that never happened for 500 Alex. If these are the conversations you are having in your Cockpit, oh sorry "Flightdeck" I mean, then you must work at a scummy airline.

Then I guess you haven't been a first officer during the BLM movement, LGTB marriage legalization and announced minoritiy hiring targets. At an airline known for their southern base.

You must be the problem since you're the only one that this is (supposedly) happening too.
