I’d love to hear your explanation on why diversity is so detrimental to being an air traffic controller.

It's not. It was the reduction of hiring standards that is a problem.

Well, in your comment that I was replying to, you were complaining about diversity.

I was complaining about them caring about diversity so much that they drastically reduced the hiring standards so they could fill ATC with diverse candidates quickly.

Also, I think it's racist and discriminatory towards young white people.
