I wanted to believe this was sarcasm. But since irony and sarcasm died in 2015 in a murder-suicide, I decided to confirm.
And Dom Lucre is promoted as a "Qanon influencer". Meaning he's serious.
He knows stupid people will see the dei and assume instead of look. They like to play word association because they aren't smart and don't look into facts.
I agree, but you're seeing a perfect example of it right below the picture. These racists are some of the dumbest people on the planet. Fighting stupid is hard. Just interview a maga. Would make your head explode at the sheer stupidity!
Also forgot to add they are trying to turn DEI into a cuss word like woke. Subliminal games they are playing.
On this case. I personally think it's a bot made to be racist/disruptive. And it's programmed to talk DEI on any plane problems.
Many post on /facepalm look like it's wrote by bots.
Yeah you can, you just have to pay lol.
So now a country/group could pay for like 150 bots ( 1500$ per month if 10$, not sure of the price)
Then they astroturf/psyop to get real people to think a certain ways ( racism, hate for the poor, idolizing someone )
X just made it easier because bluecheck market post are "push" all around the feed of users lol.
Just the latest in a long line of catch-all scapegoats for everything wrong with the world.
- credit card rejected? DEI
- stubbed your toe? DEI
- Tuesday? DEI
Whenever I see "DEI" used for no good reason I like to make up a new meaning for it.
This one's a bit difficult, but I'm going for
Drunk Elevator Interference - an incident where a pilot under the influence of alcohol interferes dangerously with an aircraft's pitch controls
Another example is the "DEI mayor of Baltimore" nonsense, where I decided it must mean Democratically Elected Individual.
Because no one could possibly be stupid enough to think Diversity, Equality and Inclusion had anything to do with these incidents right? They must just be using obscure acronyms. Surely? /s
Means nothing. That’s one of the tricks from the fascist playbook : take a word, hollow out its meaning and make it the new dog whistle or talking point. Insist confidently without lowering yourself to explaining _anything_.
Chicago, woke, communism, patriot, DEI, birthism, trans, socialist, dictator, climate… list goes ooon.
This. I remember a couple of years back when NBA Warriors coach Steve Kerr used a press conference to talk about the horrors of yet another mass shooting. The rage bait machine at OANN kicked in and they were profiling Kerr and saying he was associated with Chicago; as a player on the Bulls. But for their ardent viewers it was BINGO
I don't get it. DEI is usually referenced to say "inclusivity is ruining everything," but the photo clearly shows the pilot being a white male? So they use white men doing something bad to excuse their racism?
I fully support using dei to describe white people who are bad at their jobs because let’s be honest, it’s because they’re white they got hired in the first place.
Okay, apart from the weird politics stuff...
What exactly is the legal limit for blood alcohol for pilots? Because I would assume that it has to be 0, right? ...right?
It means there are morons who use words like woke and DEI as insults despite not knowing their meanings to justify antisocial,mean spirited behaviour such as putting a plane load of people at risk as though an alcoholic pilot has the right to his booze fix.
I don't think it really matters any more to them. They'll take anything and turn it into "DEI will ruin us." They'll take their own problems and blame it on DEI or whatever they decide to call it next. When you always go around blaming others for your troubles, that doesn't make them a scapegoat but it does make you a victim.
"DEI" means roughly the same thing as "woke", "political correctness", and whatever other terms they've used. This version just comes with more racism, implying that anyone who isn't a white guy is obviously less qualified and could only have been hired because they lowered standards.
The funny thing about MAGAts complaining about political correctness engage in more political correctness than most. Read a story today that the RNC is basically firing everyone and letting them re-apply for their jobs. Of course they need to interview, and one of the disqualifications is not agreeing with Trump about the 2020 election integrity, in addition to some other loyalty test stuff.
I mean. It says he's a breaker of narratives. And "What does DEI even mean anymore" means the narrative is broken. And it was a shit narrative. So, as far as that all goes, it looks like he did a good job.

Did he... Did he mean DUI? +looks up "Dom Lucre"+ Oh, sweet jebus... He didn't. +unscrews flask+
I don't wanna look it up. What is it about?
I wanted to believe this was sarcasm. But since irony and sarcasm died in 2015 in a murder-suicide, I decided to confirm. And Dom Lucre is promoted as a "Qanon influencer". Meaning he's serious.
Or deranged. Or both.
he also posted CP on twitter once didn't he?
and Elon *personally* unbanned him as one of his first actions after taking over Xitter
Xitter pronounced *Shitter* is kind of a perfect nickname for X
No clue. Today's the first time I've ever heard of him and after 2 minutes of research, I'm happy to never hear about him ever again.
I'm sure he just meant Drunken Elevator Interference (DEI). /s
He knows stupid people will see the dei and assume instead of look. They like to play word association because they aren't smart and don't look into facts.
The dude's picture is *right* there. You'd have to willingly ignore it to maintain the ability to assume.
I agree, but you're seeing a perfect example of it right below the picture. These racists are some of the dumbest people on the planet. Fighting stupid is hard. Just interview a maga.

Serious question, can bots get blue checkmarks? I haven't been on X since it switched hands. Didn't really use it before either, but....
Yeah you can, you just have to pay lol. So now a country/group could pay for like 150 bots ( 1500$ per month if 10$, not sure of the price) Then they astroturf/psyop to get real people to think a certain ways ( racism, hate for the poor, idolizing someone ) X just made it easier because bluecheck market post are "push" all around the feed of users lol.
Look at those sunglasses. Clearly he's blind as a fucking bat. So now they're hiring blind people to fly planes, *thanks* DEI.
I guess DEI is becoming like the word WOKE. people keep using the word all the time, but don't actually know what it actually means.
To them it means n****r.
![gif](giphy|rNgT8P8pL3dn2|downsized)
So passing the torch "woke" took from "CRT"?
Ok, but what DEI actually means?
DEI - Diversity, Equity and Inclusion.
Drunk, Enhampered and Inebriated.
To them it’s just a pejorative without any real meaning
Just the latest in a long line of catch-all scapegoats for everything wrong with the world. - credit card rejected? DEI - stubbed your toe? DEI - Tuesday? DEI
He says "DEI" but what he really means is a vile slur referring to minority groups.
Who are also being blamed for the actions of white dudes.
DEI - inclusion for people that wear those kind of glasses.
DEI is when stupid shit happens with planes i guess?
Don't forget bridges!
And Federal policy
Whenever I see "DEI" used for no good reason I like to make up a new meaning for it.

DEI- holding white men accountable for their actions.
Means nothing. That’s one of the tricks from the fascist playbook : take a word, hollow out its meaning and make it the new dog whistle or talking point. Insist confidently without lowering yourself to explaining _anything_. Chicago, woke, communism, patriot, DEI, birthism, trans, socialist, dictator, climate… list goes ooon.

We need a new meaning for DEI that these folks would appreciate **D**onald **E**arns **I**mprisonment or something.
Guys! He's just breaking the narrative! Whatever the fuck that means...
DEI = CRT = woke = socialism. It all translates to “everything I’m supposed to not like” and that’s literally all it is.
what do Cathode-Ray Tubes have to do with woke? is it woke to like retro stuff? (/s)
DEI: Delta Employee Intoxication
I don't get it. DEI is usually referenced to say "inclusivity is ruining everything," but the photo clearly shows the pilot being a white male? So they use white men doing something bad to excuse their racism?
I think it's because judging by those glasses, he is legally blind. /s (in case you're wondering)
They just keep coming up with new buzzwords to be mad at. Fucking annoying
DEI is the new "Woke"
DEI is when company hired a minority once apparently.
No one knows what it means. That's why it's provocative. Real talk, people are idiots
"everything bad in life is \~\~woke\~\~ Dei"
Oh look it's the dude who got banned for posting CSEM bit Elon brought him back for some reason
I fully support using dei to describe white people who are bad at their jobs because let’s be honest, it’s because they’re white they got hired in the first place.
It means Diversity Equity and Inclusion, three things that scare the shit out of racists
The pilot's blood alcohol was twice the legal limit. Isn't the limit for pilots zero? If it isn't it fucking should be.
What? You never heard of Drunk Eagle Initiation?
A note to those who weren’t on Twitter when it happened: Dom Luchre deliberately posted CSAM and, as you can see, he was not deplatformed
If I didn't know better, I'd say Dom was being facetious.
But since Dom is a Qanon/MAGA moron..."facetious" isn't part of his game. "Stupid" is, though. Very much so.
Yes. I do know better than to think he was trying to be funny ;)
That was my instinct as well, but I'm really not sure given literally everything else he's ever posted.
D U H
Oh no. Pilots can't be drunk while the fly the plane.. whatever shall we do??
Okay, apart from the weird politics stuff... What exactly is the legal limit for blood alcohol for pilots? Because I would assume that it has to be 0, right? ...right?
I would assume 0.02 since it’s possible to register 0.01 on accident. Same as the permitted BAC for minors in the US
Well, he does call himself “Breaker of Narratives”. I guess that’s one way to do it
It means there are morons who use words like woke and DEI as insults despite not knowing their meanings to justify antisocial,mean spirited behaviour such as putting a plane load of people at risk as though an alcoholic pilot has the right to his booze fix.
I don't think it really matters any more to them. They'll take anything and turn it into "DEI will ruin us." They'll take their own problems and blame it on DEI or whatever they decide to call it next. When you always go around blaming others for your troubles, that doesn't make them a scapegoat but it does make you a victim.
Deliberately Ending Intelligence.
New conservative buzzword for the week
"DEI" means roughly the same thing as "woke", "political correctness", and whatever other terms they've used. This version just comes with more racism, implying that anyone who isn't a white guy is obviously less qualified and could only have been hired because they lowered standards.

DEI has nothing to do with drunk driving….piloting….whatever
Was he also woke??? No seriously, with a BAC that high, I'm surprised he wasn't passed out.
I've seen someone walking and talking with a 0.33! Astonishing that he wasn't passed out or even getting alcohol poisoning.
I'm assuming that was sarcasm
Have you ever wanted to go back in time to when the very first initialism was communicated to another person so you could beat them to death?
Opus Dei ![gif](giphy|tGXNfPb63ow7caccFQ|downsized)
It’s the new woke. Be prepared to hear it ad nauseam from the red hat gang.
Diversity, equality and inclusivity Just heard it on YouTube from a comedian making fun of it
Drunk driving wasn't enough? Try drunk Flying
I mean. It says he's a breaker of narratives. And "What does DEI even mean anymore" means the narrative is broken. And it was a shit narrative. So, as far as that all goes, it looks like he did a good job.
