Hey, there has to be a black in one of the pilot's seats or in the tower somewhere he can blame. Maybe one of the controllers was watching a black coworker and not the screen. He'll fire her for sure. - ThreadSky

Referring to a person or persons solely with an adjective is somewhat dehumanizing.

No, I actually thought the same thing when you said "a black". Due to the context I assumed you didn't mean it that way, but I raised an eyebrow at it.

Exactly. If they had said “black person” instead of just “black”, not an issue. Not trying to call them racist. Just correcting problematic grammar.

And we wonder how Trump got elected.

Have a nice day.

uwops.bsky.social•24 days ago

You too.

Is that an attempt to diminish the racist behavior of Trump's DEI comments and anti-initiatives?

sprecken.bsky.social•24 days ago

You didn’t do it in the second part. There you used “black coworker”.

sprecken.bsky.social•24 days ago

No, pointing out the fact that using “black” alone to refer to a black person is dehumanizing, at best.

Can you imagine how an already burdened Air Traffic Controller must be feeling after Trump's News conference?
