The old Los Angeles Fire Department was not diverse
It was run by white men
It's now run by lesbians named Kirsten
The LAFD is much worse at fighting fires, but at least it asks the fires for their pronouns first

People keep asking if the Kirstens can fight fires
Crowley, Brown and Kepner started as paramedics
Diversity mandates promoted paramedics to fire captains and then to the top ranks of the LAFD
They should never have been called firefighters and they can't fight fires
"Crowley succeeded Chief Ralph Terrazas, the first Latino chief who replaced Chief Douglas Barry, the first black chief, and Crowley will be replaced by the first transgender fire chief"
The LAFD is Run by Three Lesbians Named 'Kirsten'
