I’ve seen this on Facebook. Now and then Facebook will show me a page that follows the investigations into these issues, and if I scroll through the comments, I’ll often see, “This is because of DEI!”
On a related note, I’m always amused that people are extremely personally invested in either Boeing or Airbus, as though their next personal jet airliner would never be of the other brand.
