Sometimes I wonder if Boeing would still exist if they weren’t a Defense Contractor then I remind myself nothing happened to Perdue when they caused the deaths of underage Guatamalan migrants working for sub minimum wage in their US slaughterhouses. So probably yeah.

How many days unitl we get a headline like “Fardshid Airlines 737 explodes directly over NYC causing a giant fireball the obliterates most of Manhattan.” And then how many minutes after until we get some halfassed “The FAA is looking into the incident but has no plans for stopping Boeing from continuing their massacre of humanity.”

Remember when that mozz character was arguing with me that Russia was clearly being hurt by sanctions because they couldn’t repair all their American-made planes because the sanctions prevented them from buying parts? At the time I argued that was a bad indicator of financial troubles considering the USA was having actual problems with Boeings and their response was an article that predicted planes in Russia would start falling out of the sky in 6 months.

Yeah, that was a fun debate.

Another knee jerk reaction article. Although not common, these things also happen in commercial airplanes not made by Boeing. There’s a multitude of possible reasons for this event other than Boeing manufacturing practices. Still, fuck Boeing, but this is click bait.
