I combine UBO with No Script and Privacy Badger. I’ve not seen any slow downs or ads or anything else.

Anyone who knows Nintendo’s history, knows that they go super hard on litigating. Don’t let the happy little mascots fool you, they’re as aggressive as Disney when they think they can get away with it.

Google, on the other hand, still has some software people in their management structure.

As evil as Boeing is, you have to give John Barnett his agency. He made that final choice.

Boeing and an arcane legal system may have driven him to it, but he was the one who made that choice.

They’d bring back company script.

And then get eaten by bears.

People contemplating suicide tend to do that. They put on a false front, saying that they’re okay when they really aren’t.

Couple that with a bad session in front of the appeal judges… and yeah. You can see why he did it.

A 7-year legal battle to overturn his loss of the lawsuit against Boeing for their retaliation over his whistleblowing… And it was looking like the final appeal, his final chance, was slipping away.

And yet, the comments here are sort of proving that point.

Well, you don’t understand the legal system at all.

You cannot submit new evidence in appeal, and again, the appeal was of the lawsuit for the Wrongful Termination. The whistleblowing was a separate item handled 7 years ago.

John Barnett had not worked for Boeing for 7 years, that’s why that’s the only part of this timeline that mattered. He turned over the evidence that he had, and literally could not collect more, because he was forced into retirement.

There’s a chance he might have been called on for testimony by someone investigating the current and ongoing issues, but he had already submitted extensive sworn testimony on the subject, so there would be little need.

But that wrongful termination lawsuit, that was personal to him, and he was losing the final appeal. Hell, the reporting at the time of his death even said that he “retired” rather than being forced out of the company. That alone should tell you something.

But no, you want to spin an outlandish conspiracy theory based on a complete misunderstanding of the law and this man’s life, all to say that Boeing, an admittedly evil company, is evil in a more personal way instead of the nebulous greed based evil that infects every corporation. The truth is, the company and its executives don’t fucking care.

They’re shielded from liability and have gotten their payouts, they ruin lives, and their greed has resulted in deaths as planes fall from the sky, but they admit no wrong doing and pay a small fine out of the employee pension fund. That’s the true conspiracy. Not some made up contract killing of a man who was no threat at all, because all of his evidence was submitted to authorities 7 years ago.

Yes, it was a suicide, because his testimony wasn’t part of anything related to whistleblowing, he was appealing a loss of the wrongful termination lawsuit against Boeing.

The idiots who never bothered to learn more than the man’s name think “big company killed whistleblower” are showing just how little they understand things.

To recap, all the evidence from his whistleblowing was submitted to authorities 7 years ago. He had no bombshells to drop, no story that hadn’t been told, just a lawsuit over how Boeing retaliated against him for Whistleblowing 7 years ago, forcing him to “retire”.

A few days before he killed himself, he was on the stand in front of the appeals judges, and from all accounts, they did not seem like they were going to overturn his loss. He was then called back for another round of testimony, but was already dead by then.

Can you imagine a 7-year legal battle over being fired for having integrity? The stress this man must have felt?

Boeing killed John Barnett, but they didn’t pull the trigger, he did. Don’t cheapen that with lies about some sort of conspiracy. Just know that Boeing is one of dozens of companies who have worked for decades to weaken labor protections.

#4 is to start the apocalypse so that Jesus will come back and kill all the Jews who don’t believe in him.

I’ve literally heard that exact reasoning from nutjobs who know just enough about geopolitics to know that using a nuke in that region would start WW3. Anyone using a nuke in that region would start it. Unless it’s someone like North Korea. That would just mean the end of North Korea as everyone else banded together to take them down.

Anyway, beside the point because no one is insane enough to listen to Lady G.

Fun fact, this is exactly the sort of situation that Ivermectin was made for. It’s an anti-parasite drug.
