    Snopes uses the term “Correct attribution” for fact checks like this. They aren’t reviewing the accuracy of the statement, only that they did, in fact, say it.

    I would encourage similar terminology here. It may not always be clear if you’re analyzing the claim or the quote.

    When people bitch about DEI hiring giving all the good jobs to unqualified people based on their skin color and genitals, the only thing that comes to mind is how many white men get jobs for the exact same reason they’re bitching about. If this was about competence you wouldn’t even need to mention what race or gender someone is.

      It’s deeply telling:

      • when a white person is in charge and shit hits the fan, it’s immigrants
      • when a non white person is in charge and there’s a minor inconvenience, it’s DEI. When shit hits the fan, it’s DEI and immigrants

    The funny thing about him saying shit about confident white men is the fact that I wouldn’t consider any of those crybaby redtard republicans letting daddy musk walk all over them competent at all.

    Edit :

    Competent, not confident.

        Something that become extremely visible when you read the news. Everything grinding to a halt, legal actions as a counter reaction, stock markets that go crazy. All evidence to the contrary of competency.

    Is he sure because it seems like every law, government controlled service, benefit, and right has stopped functioning as a direct result of this.
