How many of the 8,000 candidates were also qualified ? How many better-qualified whites / men / asians / jews / mexicans / etc etc were skipped to fulfil Biden's black skin + vagina quota ?

Humans are biased. So you take sex and race out of the hiring process, not embed it to promote the hateful woke agenda.

  > There's no single test (as far as I know) that selects the best astronaut.

From Reddit:
"Astronaut Selection Process Tips,
I'm a retired Air Force officer and have many friends who are astronauts, both military and commercial.
Similar to the military and special ops, the NASA and ESA astronaut selection processes don't "select in," they "select out.
They eliminate people. They look for things they don't want. Similar to the military and special ops, the NASA and ESA astronaut selection processes don't "select in," they "select out." They eliminate people. They look for things they don't want. This is different than screening in, like when you apply for a job and they have a checklist of desired skills and credentials."

So to satisfy Biden, they select out men and white people.
Sexist and racist.

The way they promoted the crew was a political stunt and it takes away from other people's accomplishments and gives people like you a reason to continue to promote racism and sexism as the answer to racism and sexism.

There is no over-representation of anybody when people are hired on merit.
DEI means no-one is being represented accurately, they are there to fill quotas.

How can any decent person be proud of getting a job that way ? "Oh, you're the black guy Biden demanded, oh, you must have the vagina that he told us we had to bring along". What a fucked-up way to go through life. What a fucked-up picture to present to the world.

No, I am not blaming DEI for Artemis being a ridiculous waste of money, only backed for the pork and implemented by Old Space in order to make the most money for them by throwing away rocket engines that were built to be reused.

I am saying, as any decent person does, that woke racism and sexism is an abomination that must be wiped out. Especially where it is most prevalent - government jobs.
