Comedian Rob Schneider called out United Airlines CEO Scott Kirby in a recent X post, accusing the CEO of pushing diversity in his company at the expense of safety.
“The U.S. carriers rankings are dragged down by the fleet age of their aircraft, however all have major replacement programs in place but it will take time for that to reflect in the rankings,” says Thomas.
That is, the people responsible for ranking airline safety, and in contrast to Rob Schneider and everyone who agrees with him, identify aging aircraft as the reason United’s safety rating fell from 14 to 25.

“This year we went for a top 25 because the margins were so small between these airlines,” Geoffrey Thomas, the editor-in-chief of AirlineRatings.com, told me in an interview.
So, the distance between United Airlines at 25 and American Airlines at 22 isn’t that big.
But instead of taking Geoffrey Thomas’s word for it, Schneider and anti-DEI company are like, “Aging aircraft? Maybe…but more likely it’s women and people of color!” This is more evidence that they are racist and misogynistic.
While Bailey doesn’t believe diversity makes traveling safer, the two have frequently been tied together.
But this is such poor reasoning as to demand a cliché: correlation does not imply causation. And that it has been tied together by Emperor God King Musk and coincidentally only those with anti-left wing sentiments is hardly evidence of anything at all except their own biases against women and people of color.
Did you read below as to why there isn’t diversity in pilots? It sounds like that is where United could make a difference but they don’t.
I wa shocked. I assumed most pilots came from the military. Most come from self training. That means low people struggle to become pilots. Many black people come from low income families. As such United should setup training in low income schools to provide the opportunity to people.
That would be effective in hitting their goal but also making sure the pilots are qualified.
Have they? How do you know? I have more questions, but if you just link me to some source or something, I’ll figure those out for myself…
It’s public information.

Mmhmm, that just does what Schneider does.

Yeah, but how United could make a difference isn’t the issue. I mean, I agree…but…
It’s that movement against diversity employs racism to make its case.
You can’t call a Filipino racist. Only whites can be racist according to the left.
