You have to wonder - what could Delta be so worried about that it wants to put this much effort into discouraging union membership?

it's just so toweringly patronizing, did they really think it would be effective?
the email address is real tho'.
 
HuffPost is now a part of Oath

Folks on social media knocked it out of the park after the White House website misspelled the Boston Red Sox as the “Red Socks” ahead of Thursday’s team visit.

The World Series champion baseball team’s trip already faced heightened media coverage after nearly all of the Red Sox’s players of color announced they would not attend in protest of President Donald Trump’s administration.

People on Twitter stepped up to the plate to troll the administration over the goofs, including former White House photographer Pete Souza

Most Americans say 'Arabic numerals' should not be taught in school

More than half of Americans believe “Arabic numerals” – the standard symbols used across much of the world to denote numbers – should not be taught in school, according to a survey.

Fifty-six per cent of people say the numerals should not part of the curriculum for US pupils, according to research designed to explore the bias and prejudice of poll respondents.

The digits 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8 and 9 are referred to as Arabic numerals. The system was first developed by Indian mathematicians before spreading through the Arab world to Europe and becoming popularised around the globe.

Seventy-two per cent of Republican-supporting respondents said Arabic numerals should not be on the curriculum, compared 40 per cent of Democrats. This was despite there being no significant difference in education between the two groups.

“They answer differently even though they had equal knowledge of our numerical nomenclature,” Mr Dick said. “It means that the question is about knowledge or ignorance but [also] something else – prejudice.”
