DIE never went away.
The field of science is full of overeducated and moronic DIE hires.

Hurricanes that affect the United States are named by an international committee of the World Meteorological Organization.
I have no idea who's on the committee.

RE: What lib came up with the name of this Hurricane?
As to Hurricane Isaias ... how dare those DEI-obsessed hurricane namers insult the lilywhite sensibilities of mainstream Caucasian America by using a Spanish name.
Can we fathom the rioting in the streets from angry vanilla-esque Celine Dionne-music-loving white folk if the libtard hurricane namers ever opt for Hurricane Jazzmin or Hurricane Jabari?
Let's just keep it soft, clean and bland with Hurricane Brett, Hurricane Jennifer, Hurricane Joey, Hurricane Amy, etc., so as to make the milquetoast whites happy.
On the white name theme ... I would like to see hurricanes given odd British surnames.
Examples:
Hurricane Moneypenny
Hurricane Lovelady
Hurricane Cashdollar
Hurricane Halfacre
Hurricane Cabbagestalk
Hurricane Higginbotham
And related to this message board ...
... word on the street is that, years ago, the ladies called him "Hurricane" Stinkfist. And I'm sure you lads know why.

Why do we name hurricanes? I’ve wondered my entire life.

RE: What lib came up with the name of this Hurricane?
Hypothetically, and in the name of inclusiveness, if a black person who is not qualified for and undeserving of a job is hired over a white person who is qualified for and deserving of that job ... that is a joke. That is DEI at its ugliest (and most shameful) form. It unfairly penalizes the white person and does an injustice to the black person by, potentially, positioning her or him for failure.
This is a great example of why I feel DEI, overall, is both detrimental and worthy of criticism and elimination.
However, if the World Meteorological Organization (which names hurricanes) opts for a "non-white" name ... why would anybody care? No white person has been harmed by the hurricane (in this case, Isaias) being given a Spanish name. Similarly, no person of color has unfairly been given an advantage.
It's a freaking hurricane name, boys. You're going to have your asses chapped about this? Seriously?
The word "snowflake" comes to mind.

No offense, BTF. But I don't want to mentally visualize your exposed man bottom — chapped or not.

Because during busier seasons it's easier for idiots to understand what storms to be concerned about than random numbers

They named the hurricane after the 10 millionth illegal that crossed the border during the Biden administration - Isaiah Alvardo Martinez.
