"Yes Sir Gay Sir!"


BAHHAHHAAAAAAAA

Is there a New Zealand litter box section on this board? What does this have to do with politics? Or is it political now to gay bash New Zealand Navy commanders?

It’s about gay bashing. These dudes are pretty one note after all.

Yes she’s Gay….Nobody here could bring themselves to admit the DEI part and its dangerous results. Very telling.

SMH


Good Lord. Way to promote for publicity over merit. We can only hope the airline industry doesn’t do this when hiring pilots.

I have no idea what this person's resume looks like (neither do you). Therefore, I have no idea whether she is quailed for her position. To automatically assume that she is not qualified with no knowledge about her background or accomplishments is silly and irresponsible IMO. And unlike you, I must admit that I am not an expert on what it takes to be a qualified commander in the New Zealand navy.

What exactly are people supposed to discuss in this thread? DEI in New Zealand? How nobody died in a ship that capsized so she likely made the right call to evacuate the vessel?

We all know it’s about the gay bashing. Or maybe because she is a woman. It’s got nothing to do with whether she was qualified as they (Lucas correctly points out) have zero clue of that and wouldn’t bother to even research for support to see if they’re correct. Just typical ranting from the usual crowd so they can pat one another on the back for being faux intellectual.

Members are also reminded . . .

• #1 - Avoid cases of unprovoked rudeness to others. No place for it here. Yes, with the dynamic nature of the threads and topics, tempers will flare and things will become heated from time to time. You may often encounter individuals who become passionate or emotional when expressing one's opinion or point of view. That's all understood and perfectly acceptable within reason…….but, start slamming or bashing another member and be met with consequences.
• #3 - Disrespect to others, IN GENERAL, will be considered an item of low tolerance, especially when posting in our coed forums. Follow the Golden Rule and treat others as you wish to be treated yourself. This applies to fellow members as well as staff. We do not require that you have respect for us, but we do require that you treat us respectfully in the public forums. If you feel the need to vent, gripe, or blow off some steam regarding a staff member's action or decision, we ask that you keep it private. Email, RTM, or the PM system would be the appropriate avenue to take in such cases. In cases where you would like to request additional clarity about a staff decision, you are free to pursue an answer in either a public forum or private means of communication. If handled publicly, post your inquiry in a respectful manner.
• #4 - Blatant insults or hostility toward another member will be met with staff intervention.
