What's hard to understand about "when you lower standards, unqualified people end up in critical jobs"?

Don struggles with a lot of things involving logic and reason.

Washington State just decided that the bar exam is too tough for minorities to pass, so they decided to do away with it. Same principle.

This interview was intended to be a hit job. I believe Don thinks too much of himself because he failed.

DEI is racism and nothing less.

Elon crushed this interview. What a great example of the juxtaposition of someone who sees the importance of speaking and reporting truth and someone who wants fame and relevance.

That was painful to watch.

Don is refuting Elon’s claims, not failing to understand logic. Do we actually have the definitive answer on this or are we all speculating? Have Duke confirmed they lowered the standard for passing exams to allow those in DEI programs to become doctors who wouldn’t have otherwise qualified? It should be a simple enough point to prove, and the onus is on Elon to prove something he is claiming.

You dont have to be a genius to understand that lowering standards will lower the quality and expertise in that particular field. Imagine a pilot who squeezed through because the exam was made easier due to equity. You want to be a passenger on his flight? Not me.

Elon: “What I was referring to there is that if we lower the standards for doctors, then the probability of them making a mistake and killing someone is obviously going to be higher.” That's a good answer
