The study:

The stated purpose:
we investigated whether individuals with IQs ≤ 90 who completed college experienced the same social and economic benefits higher-IQ college graduates did.
The hilarious accidental money shot:
Although most individuals with IQs ≤ 90 did not have a college degree, the rate at which they completed college had increased approximately 6-fold in men and 10-fold in women relative to rates in the previous generation.
So the researchers were trying to instill confidence in their sample size, but they inadvertent revealed what most of us have suspected for years: colleges are rubber stamping degrees for stupid people in general and stupid women in particular.
Given average white IQ is ten points higher than 90 while average black IQ is five points lower, it’s probably safe to assume that most of these cognitively challenged college grads are black women a.k.a. the most insufferable and belligerent demographic on the planet.
We’re fast tracking literal retards into positions of authority and influence because muh racism. Bodes well!
And I assume you're talking about before the airlines started screwing over the pilots who didn't want to take the "vaccine" even.
Still he could still find a niche as a non-airline pilot somewhere. Might need to be wiling to move across country (or outside the country) though, which is the case in a lot of industries.
Absolutely this. If he gets his ATPL then the world is his oyster. Just because the US aviation industry has gone woke doesn’t mean other countries aren’t in need of pilots. With an ATP you’re desirable in almost any country, then if you find an airline willing to hire you often times they’re willing to help pay for type ratings.
