Friendly Guise
AITOOW has learned that United Airlines selected the Vietnamese doctor because of an algorithm they use to find the "lowest value customer"? It starts with section (coach) and lowest air fare paid (less to reimburse) and if you are a rewards member or not.

I'm Your Back Door Man
AITOOW wanted to know how everything worked, how all the pieces fit together and now wonders if all he found was the back door to unhappiness?

Fiendly Skies
AITOOW thinks United's new policy is tone deaf? Now they will be bumping people BEFORE they board. They still won't stop overbooking or favoring their own deadbeats over their customers. They just won't get it. What do expect from a CEO that bumped heart patients for his own transplant.

Beef Stew
AITOOW thinks that the fact that everyone is offended by everyone and everything is more evidence that our country is too inclusive? There is no unifying thread. We all think our way is the right way. Everyone is trying to hijack the culture.

You Kant Handle The Truth
AITOOW thinks that people are no longer concerned/scared of the consequences of their actions (ie talking a life, getting hit by a car) and are only concerned with being judged/blamed/shamed for their actions (ie being punished for talking a life, being laughed at for being hit by a car). Anything goes as long as it is surreptitious. There is no individual sense of right and wrong just the collective. Did this start with the whole not blaming the victim crusade. Once we took the onus off keeping people safe through "shaming" them into logical/prophylactic behavior and into making sure they saved face, did we change the whole way in which we define harm. It went from the "action" verbs to the "descriptive" verbs. From the physical harm to the emotional. And now the protagonist has co-opted the same type of ethics. It's not the harm or benefit conveyed, it is whether it was observed and accepted by society. If society says a poke in the eye is acceptable then it is. Whether that is refutable or not. I guess it's just more 20th century Subjectivism.
