    If you’re making selections based on diversity, you’re fundamentally not focusing on hiring the best of the best. And for safety critical positions like pilots, I would much rather have the focus be 100% on quality.

        The best is the best, regardless of whatever bs diversity qualities. You’ll get them without having to specifically look for shit like race and sex. Looking for those instead means you’re no longer looking for the best, you’re looking for whoever meets minimum standards and is also an acceptable race

            preferring someone of an acceptable race in the best of the best

            All races are acceptable. You do know race is just a social construct right?

            Because the moment you’re preferring race, you’re fundamentally not preferring something else, and if you ask me, race is pretty much the absolute bottom of the list of things to judge people on.

                But what is not being excluded is whether any given person is the best of the best by our assumption.

                I mean if you want to work from a false premise, there’s no point in further having this discussion

                    I literally asked you to correct me.

                    I did. Multiple fucking times. But it didn’t fit whatever stupid strawman you wanted, so you just ignored it and acted stupid. Or more realistically, it wasn’t an act
