      Look Steve, I don’t know what you want from them! They only had two fully loaded passenger planes dive straight into the ground killing everyone. It could have been a lot more if they hadn’t bravely covered it up.

      Hundreds is a tragic number, and I don’t want to minimize that loss and the impacts on their loved ones, but hundreds could be only like… One plane.

      Again, tragic, but if you’re telling me one plane might crash at some arbitrary point in the future, out of the thousands of daily flights around the globe, I’m not dropping everything to go stand in that picket line

    Fun fact: JetBlue only operates AirBus aircraft, as does Frrontier and Spirit. Southwest only operates Boeing 737s.

      No way, the cheaper airlines use better planes?

      Starting to think the hard-on for Boeing was just part of a trade battle, like most “buy american” shit.

    Dear white people: stop calling out when your empire fucks up. Let them fuck up.

    Sincerely: The rest of the civilized world

        These people are risking their lives to tell basically nazis that their war machine has weaknesses in them. What’s going to happen 9/10 times is they’re going to just murder them for speaking out and that’s the good result; the bad result is they fix the issue then use it to murder kids.

          I’d like to see a Wikipedia page of whistleblowers who die shortly after blowing the whistle.
