Malice, corruption, and ignorance fills nearly every seat of power in today's world.
I don't know how much longer this can continue before everything completely collapses and chaos ensues.
The Supreme Court and the trouble with affirmative action
Too many Americans in positions of authority have been put there for the wrong reasons ...
Now, Lucinda makes for a bizarre beneficiary of American affirmative action. She’s more likely descended from slavers than slaves. Her educated parents are soaked in oil money. But because Lucinda has been coy about her sexuality and HR had ignorantly imagined that all Nigerians are Muslim, she’s been placed in a powerful post as a quadruple-token. With no experience in urban planning, this out-of-her-depth greenhorn proves catastrophic for the city’s transportation system. In short, this is a character whom few fiction writers would be daring enough — or stupid enough — to fashion: the incompetent diversity hire.
Why did I risk vilification? Because too many Americans in positions of authority have been put there for the wrong reasons.
WASHINGTON, D.C.—The Supreme Court is reorganizing its docket so it can rule on an affirmative action case before a new affirmative action justice is appointed. President Joe Biden, who has pledged to appoint a black woman to the court, will be forced to nominate a justice on pure merit if SCOTUS rules affirmative action to be unconstitutional.
"It is unconstitutional," said Chief Justice John Roberts. "I mean, I'm not supposed to talk about this sort of thing before we actually hear arguments, but come on. I mean, seriously, you guys."
"Affirmative action served a purpose as America dissolved segregation but it's woefully out of date," he continued. "At this rate, we'll be stuck with a bunch of Sotomayors. For God's sake, I am not a babysitter!"
The court will increase its caseload, skipping lunches to squeeze them all in before Biden's nomination is confirmed. Everyone other than Sotomayor agrees affirmative action is an important topic.
"But how people get job?" Sotomayor asked her colleagues without further elaboration.
Legal experts believe affirmative action will be blocked by the court when it hears the case in the coming weeks. However, if arguments run long, Biden may sneak in a new justice based solely on skin color and gender that cannot be removed for the rest of her life.

This is where we are headed unless someone can inject some sanity into the US. Is there any hope?

Knowing my crew is all female instead of simply the best people for the job makes me feel so progressive!
Delta has this TikTok celebrating all female flight crews that will definitely make you feel safer
U.S. — A scene of desperation and panic unfolded on a Delta Airlines flight after the captain of the all-female flight crew announced over the intercom that everything was fine.
"Sure, just go on doing whatever you want back there. It's fine," said Captain Savannah Ross with a sigh. "Why wouldn't it be fine?"
The cabin immediately broke into a cacophony of shrieks and prayers, with passengers desperately trying to message loved ones to say goodbye. "We keep asking, but they won't say what's wrong," said Danny Evans, who had managed to reach his wife's phone. "Whatever it is, it must be really bad. We're in trouble, babe."
Passengers continued begging the crew to know what was the matter, but were met with the silent treatment. At last, the Captain returned to the intercom only to say, "You wouldn't understand" — setting off a fresh wave of hysteria.

The worst offender - Justice Sotamayor - who not only claimed that there are "100,000 children in serious condition," with many on ventilators (there are 3,342 per HHS with many or most being incidental covid positives alongside other conditions), but that Omicron is as deadly as Delta.
"This is just absolutely astonishing. "100,000 children in serious condition," per Sotomayor. Where do these people obtain their misinformation? The current national pediatric COVID census per HHS is 3,342. Many/most incidental." - Phil Kerpen, Twatter.
"Sotomayor claims simultaneously that the vaccine is necessary prevent severe illness (and does so) but that unvaccinated pose risk to other unvaccinated and vaccinated. No logical consistency here." - Jenin Younes, Twatter.
So the fate of one of the most medically authoritarian schemes in US history is now in the hands of people who have no clue how this virus behaves.
