Not the pilots (or crews) fault that the shipping company puts so little effort into maintenance or quality standards that their shit literally stalls and dies in port
AmericansConservativesIf your grandmother dies at age 102, Fox news would blame it on immigrants, somehow.
While that wouldn’t be entirely inaccurate, it was really on Meemaw for getting in too deep with the Sinaloa cartel and not having a good exit strategy.
How do you know dying wasn’t her exit strategy. That’s my retirement plan.
Conservatives are now learning that global trade involves the rest of the globe
Are you implying they’ll remember their own actions? Doubt it.
I must be really out of the loop. Where were people saying this?
A brige in Baltimore collapses because of a ship colliding, with most of it’s crew being Indians and Sri Lankans. Conservatives, being the barbaric creatures that lack brain-cell, called it a terrorist attack. The hate against Indians skyrocketed on social media, especially Twitter and Reddit.
There were a lot of AI generated memes with boats leaving behind a trail of shit, brown people with shit in their hands, and a brown dude being held by a bunch of white dudes wearing a hazmat suit cuz he was being gestured to shit in the toilet and not the street.
And a lot of paj**t and p*ki slurs, as well as lot of conspiracy theory about how these immigrants want to rape and genocide the whites in America.
News outlets made it worse. I read three articles and all three suggestively mentioned the Indian crew but none mentioned non-Indian captains.
They also mentioned the SOS call and power failure so I assumed it was a maintenance problem, not necessarily a people problem.
Huh, I guess I’m just not usually around those sorts of people, even online.
What’s a DEI?
A “DEI” is a person whose hiring was motivated (in whole or in part) by the desire to improve recruiting metrics tied to diversity, equity, and inclusion as opposed to solely based on their suitability for the role.
Twitter pic = downvote
You’re right, the post should have been nothing but a link to X
Local doesn’t mean white. Baltimore is a white minority city, with whites making up scarcely more than 30% of the population.
weirdly, the page has since been updated, see if you can spot the change https://www.balticshipping.com/vessel/imo/9697428/seafarers
