If you go back and look at his posting history since 2012 almost certainly not a bot. No one is yelling. Shaking my head? Yes. Just as I'm doing with you.

Mellineals...

Lol, far from a Boomer. Arguing with a bot on a forum makes just as much sense as arguing with anyone else here.

So yes, thanks for sharing your hypocritical views on a pilot forum discussing furloughs.

Uncle Ben, Aunt Jemima, Cream of Wheat, Mrs Butterworth, Eskimo Pie, Gone with the Wind, Paw Patrol, Live PD, Cops, Joe Rogan, JK Rawlings, Drew Brees...these are all things and people who were cancelled just in the past weeks. So don’t tell me nothing has changed. These were ALL from the Left.

If you don’t like what I write in this forum, then simply don’t reply. But you won’t be cancelling me on this thread.

I consider myself a libertarian. I don’t care if you or anyone else says or writes something that is not politically correct. As a libertarian, I actually believe in free expression. I rather people speak their minds so we know more about their views rather than shove them into silence.

I have a lot to say on a lot of topics, but not all. This one just happened to satisfy my boredom at the time.

Not that there was much choice ... something had to be done.

Seems like some people don’t see inflation, when it’s driven by government actions (the Fed), as the regressive tax it is on everyone.

Where do you go and find a list of things that are canceled? I've seen some news reports about companies taking a new look at their branding and logos in light of societal change...but I never took that to mean they were 'canceled' (whatever that means). I don't follow the trending twitter hash tags or other social media trending items enough I guess? And I must say that for a libertarian you seem really assed up about this 'cancel culture' thing. You even stated on this post that you believe in free expression and don't care if someone says or writes non politically correct things - so what's your beef with people speaking their mind and effectively encouraging the boycott of commercial products? Can't have it both ways.

It's interesting that so many airline pilots are so far to the right and believe in so strongly that capitalism is the way.

But as soon as their job is threatened, they put their hand out for a government bailout.

If my airline bites the dust or I get furloughed, then that's just life.. if the demand for airline travel is there, I will have a job flying something. Capitalism is survival of the fittest.

If they had used the bailout money to provide free healthcare, when I lose my job at least I would be able to goto the doctor.

Seriously, you can't have it both ways..

You sure can. It’s like Apple and corporate income tax. They took a lot of flack but ultimately they did nothing illegal and in self interest took advantage of existing tax law. Same deal. In self interest we do what we need to do within the existing system.
