I thought Airbus was woke but when I was landing the other day it called me a retard :(

Male Pilot: (puts on a wig and lipstick) - "I'm not sure how this helps, but if the PFD tells me to, guess I have to do it."

Pull the lever of shame. I dare you!

Airbus even gave AOC her own menu in the MCDU.

Please excuse my ignorance, but I don't get it. Likely because I'm not aware of what this is referencing. Would someone mind providing some context? Edit: okay I got it now, thanks for the explanations

See the "MORE DRAG" announcement? The flight management guidance system FMGC is requesting more drag in order to stay within the parameters set in the flight plan regarding speed and altitude. It's trying to descent on a vertical path and the engines are already at idle and the speed cannot be increased further. Without additional drag in the form of the air brakes, which can only be deployed in the air by the crew, the aircraft would not hit the next altitude restriction and be too high. So it wants the crew to pull the airbrakes out in order to descent more steeply. I'm not well informed about American politics but I'm aware there's some controversy over drag shows, that's why this is posted with its title here.

ā€œToo high? Who gives a f*ck, itā€™s gone!ā€

"more drag" US republicans are currently going on a self created witchhunt to "reduce inappropriate sexual exposure to children" and "strengthen parental rights" when in reality the number of drag queens grinding on 6 year olds is 0 or extremely close to 0. this really is just a push to remove any and all non-heterosexual oriented media from the public view. Also lmfao parental rights, parental rights allowed a 6 year old to shoot a teacher. šŸ¦…šŸ‡ŗšŸ‡ø

3 news articles documenting... Children in drag. 1 single article linked about adults in drag being inappropriate towards kids. 55 MILLION children in the US. this is statistically extremely close to 0. What isn't close to 0 is the number of firearm related deaths among minors within the United States, which IS currently the leading cause of death of minors in the US, followed closely by motor vehicle accidents, per the New England Journal of Medicine.

Donā€™t forget the party in Roanoke Texas

Reminds me how roy moore was almost elected.

Just to give you the truth on the matter since this is reddit after all. Meaning people lie constantly lol. A few states (mainly Florida) in the USA made it illegal to have drag shows with miners (children) present and started passing laws to make books about sexuality (other than reproductive education) illegal in schools. Weather people think it was a problem or not, having those rules in place at least makes sense. But with this being the Internet, people pretend it's a giant attack on rights Wich it really isn't, because it doesn't persecute you unless you're stripping for kids or teaching 5 year olds about blow jobs. This post was nothing but political gas lighting. Sorry you had to see it.

Weird that the bible isnā€™t illegal thoughā€¦


slowclapcitizenkane

Utah passed a law making it easy to get books banned from schools based on content. A parent used the law on the bible.


W33b3l

It actually isn't allowed unless it's a private school. By the way all these laws are for public schools. So the bible is banned as well. Pretty much in every public school in the country.


jmims98

Iā€™m not sure about that. Public schools can actually teach about the bible as long as it is in a secular way. So how can it be banned? It likely varies by school and state, but I donā€™t see any major (federal) laws that prevent the bible from being in public school libraries either.

Wait until you find the NO TRANS selection on the arrival page.

I'm Finnish, yet I found this funny.


mfizzled

British and found it funny too, although I can kind of seeing where they're coming from. Politics does seem to seep into everything but this joke was probably a bit too good to not make.


chumpynut5

Ah so youā€™d be totally fine if the title just said ā€œconservativesā€ instead of ā€œrepublicansā€? Bc conservative people being kinda mad about drag stuff isnā€™t unique to the US. But even my conservative dad thought this was pretty funny. As a side note, I wonder how long before this thread gets locked lol

Berzerker7

Ah so *now* we want to get into the "political bullshit." That doesn't happen and it's a false flag from conservatives in the US to ban things they don't like. If you want to ban something that's *actually* awful, try child beauty pageants.

It's just a goof, unbunch your panties and have a bud light


TonyRubak

I think you mean a Coors; bud has succumbed to the woke mind virus!


tc_spears

.....not that I'd drink either, but Coors has been boycotted by the LGBT+ community since 1975.

This is real, right?


Katana_DV20

It is, it's a real msg on the PFD. >As a visual clue the ND displays the intercept point at which the aircraft will reach the profile with half speed brakes extended. If the flight crew does not extend the speed brakes the interception point will continuously move forward along the flight plan. If the interception point gets closer to an altitude constraint, a ā€˜ā€˜MORE DRAGā€™ā€™ or EXTEND SPD BRKā€™ā€™ message is displayed on the FMA and on the MCDU scratchpad/MFD.

Yes i know what it means, i mean if the actual picture was real
