So you’re saying pretty vocal about being in love an idiot until things mattered (see today’s email)? Look, who cares. He’s in and everyone gets to deal with it. Let’s hope he focuses his strong discourse toward a real contract and not whatever invented grievance is stirring in the make-believe MAGA cinematic universe. To be fair I’ve never seen any of that from him online, but I don’t live on the forums like many here.

If you can’t see the difference between the two I have no idea where to even start.
Here’s an illustration.
1.Don Rickles said, and I quote “racial slur, racial slur, racial slur”. This is totally inappropriate and makes him unfit for a professional leadership position.
2. Wow, you guys suck. There’s three of you. As don rickles might say “racial slur applicable to person one, racial slur applicable to person two, racial slur applicable to person three.”
1. is using the quote in a factual manner to explain why I find their actions inappropriate.
2. is using a quote as a thinly veiled method of insulting someone.
Context matters, and unlike what Jerry said the full context is still
damning.
This is schoolyard “I had my fingers crossed behind my back so it doesn’t count” nonsense. You know what he meant when he used that quote and you know what I meant when I quoted him.

We can't quote racial slurs here. So let's just say he said the P word, the W word, and the J word. I only say this because people need to know what he said so they can make up their own minds.

The fact that we cannot to say the “P word”, the ‘W word” and the “J word” is the crux of the problem. FFS people, grow up.

This has everything to with a union electing a tone deaf racist, xenophobe, and misogynist. This man has NO ethical claim to represent the 15,000+ United pilots.

Just wondering, directed to the moderators-
How do you let someone using "ChicagoBlues" as their screen name and start by trying to post disparaging screenshots from NS.
It's kinda obvious what the person is trying to do.
We've all seen people create screen names just to throw **** onto others.
At what point do you do some basic housecleaning.. you must know their emails, their IP addresses, cell numbers.
Can't you do anything to weed out the chaff?!
Motch
PS) Lee.. seems your screen shot is also up there in the right corner..

But still, somehow it’s a hit job?
My guess is the username was available. This will never be swept under the carpet.

All the LEC reps who voted for him after his racist, xenophobic, and misogynistic posts were read to the entire MEC **BEFORE** the vote occurred need to be recalled immediately.
