I don't watch any of the news networks, so yeah....
Faux News, the Communist News Network, the screaming libs on MSNBC...they exist to do one thing, generate ratings. They all do that by feeding your emotional addiction to outrage. Try to quit cold turkey for a month. It is liberating. You will realize that you aren't watching news, you are watching someone tell you how to feel about the news and then feeding you stories that add oxygen to it.
I suggest getting a subscription to the WSJ and reading it (minus the editorial page which is ridiculously partisan).
So I'll be the pot or the kettle or whatever you want, but I refuse to get angry about something that literally has zero impact on me or my family. I won't do it because I don't let people tell me how to think.
The only reason I commented in the first place is because we went in one post from the super successful and uniting SAV victory to a gender transition literature being in the EFB. Who cares? Are you transitioning genders? I didn't even know it was there and still haven't looked because I don't waste my time on noise and don't feel the need to get angry about it and it simply does not apply to me.

I refer to ALL MSM as confirmation biased infotainment, because that's exactly what it is.
Their first priority is to sell ads. A very close second is to divide society into us and them, providing a much more pliable population for .gov to control.
And it works perfectly.

Are the forcing you to participate? No they are not. They are doing it because it makes them look good to a population that has lots of disposable income and likes to travel. I am old enough to remember when Delta was the first airline to support gay rights back in the early 2000s. I remember the same arguments against it on the ALPA boards. I remember the comments and they sound like the same anti DEI comments. Well Delta is the top dog in the airline industry and has been for awhile. They offer a great product and I don’t hear too much complaining from the delta guys when they cash their profit sharing checks.

Southwest lawyers file a complaint and loose and SouthWoke gets to keep its website.

So, yes, they are forcing it upon us.

You anti DEI Tucker Swanson people just really crack me up. Are you the same people that actually think you or your ideas mean anything to this company? Just a hint, you are a nothing to them. You are less than a nothing. You are easily replaceable and they don’t seem to really care about your thoughts on anything. They don’t care if you don’t like DEI, LGBQT, FFDO, COVID shots or any other myriad of things they support or allow to happen. Stay in your lane and only worry about yourself and those closest to you. Southwest Airlines has not and never will care about you so stop worrying about them. Go to work, do what they want and cash your check. They will survive or die with or without your help and there is NOTHING you can do about it.
