‘Food for thought’ came to mind and then the analogy that this is like a diet. Tough to stick to but probably very good for your health.

Not to be a wide-eyed naïf about such things but... am I right in thinking that they levelled an entire building to get to one guy and *that* is not controversial to anyone in the American media or political class, only that this information was recklessly shared in an unsecured chat?

There is nothing on my Airline Transport Pilot certificate that indicates my race, pronouns, gender identity or anything that opponents of DEI are scared of. We all passed the same check rides based on the same standards set by the FAA. To use a tragedy as a platform to discriminate is abhorrent.
