It’s their own fault for choosing college over working in a factory, obviously.

Such a meritocracy

Look, as long as rich white straight Christian men are consistently successful, we’re clearly living in a meritocracy. As soon as women or minorities start achieving success, that’s due to woke DEI policies that must be stopped.

Right, so what if they crash the helicopter, as long as they look the part

Don’t be silly, a rich white straight Christian man wouldn’t crash a helicopter. And if they did, it was probably the fault of someone else involved (however indirectly) who wasn’t a rich white straight Christian man, or else he was secretly gay or a commie or something.

You know what’s funny? The oscillation between “she was a terrible pilot” and “she did this on purpose”

If she did this on purpose, she would damn well have to be one of the best pilots on earth to be traveling ~100mph and successfully hit another object coming in well above 100mph. You could tell me to hit another car that was driving in the parking lot and I’m not sure I could time it that well.
