Maybe now the intelligence community will do their thing and none of us will have to worry about these dipshits anymore.
Can we start a rumor that Musk wants to shut down Boeing? He won't last a month.
Lockheed Martin. Half the US military runs on their products. They're so integrated that the military basically can't afford to change contractors for any of it.
Yeah but Boeing has more experience in offing people and making it look like a suicide.
I'm smashing the x button to doubt that
A Boeing whistleblower the day before he finally got his big day in court (something he worked towards for years) "committed suicide" in his car the day before he was going to testify.
Forget the Epstein conspiracy shit, guys going to prison for sex stuff involving minors kill themselves all the time since they know they're going to have a bad time in prison. An engineer trying to expose his former employer for their unsafe practices the day before he's going to finally get what he wanted? Wayyyyyy more suspicious than the Epstein stuff.
There was another Boeing whistleblower that also "committed suicide".
But sure, maybe it's all a weird coincidence that everyone that tries to blow the whistle on Boeing turns up dead before they can testify.
I probably should have been more clear what I was doubting, I don't doubt for a second Boeing would pull this shit, I just doubt they've done it more than Lockheed. Lockheed has their fingers in way more pies.
The other Boeing whistleblower got suddenly ill and died. Weird "coincidence".
While we can hope for that, you gotta remember, the intelligence agencies are inherently pro-authoritarian, and anti-egalitarian (probably spelled wrong).
The USSR wasn't the actual enemy for the last century. Communism was the enemy. The entire defense industry was built up to fight the idea of communism. It just helped that the USSR called themselves communists.
I don't think for a second that any really meaningful classified information can be leaked without immediate consequences. And that is usually troop movements or locations.
