for penning an essay almost 33 years ago opposing women in combat, which he had long since renounced, I have to admit, I was surprised. I probably should not have been.
After all, we are in the midst of this decade’s great reckoning, which was unleashed by women who were sick and tired of being sexually harassed and violated by powerful men. The #MeToo movement, among other things, caused a great culling of abusive male bosses that continues to this day. The current iteration of the reckoning is more complicated. At its roots are a rage against racism and sexism and longstanding social inequities that have manifested themselves in every aspect of American life.
opinion Per his LinkedIn he was a speechwriter for Colin Powell a zillion years ago. Does that mean Powell gets swept aside?
opinion The man has jumped around jobwise in recent years, and he's only worked for Boeing for 6-7 months. Maybe there's more going on than something he wrote 33 years ago.
opinion Black people, the disabled, women, etc. have been passed over for jobs and promotions in favor of white, cis men as a matter of course for decades. That’s cancel culture.
opinion He was finally fired? I figured he could never get fired even after hiding the fact he created a plane that is killing people. Boeingmax
opinion A ridiculous column. One employee is not a qualifiable 'cancel culture' campaign. 'Cancel culture' is a bullshit conceit designed to criticize the multitude whenever they attempt to exercise consumer influence or to promote social conscience in the marketplace.
opinion It is interesting to see Nietzsche’s dream is finally being materialized.
opinion Stupid column. Whose doing the cancelling? Complaining about people using their 1st Amendment rights to denounce or oppose something, is about as white as it gets. Let’s not forget the coddling of Whites after their bruta history. Should have been cancelled
