Hey, I heard Boeing is hiring assassins. It’s in high demand!
Guess its gatlin time
One death is coincidental, two is suspicious, any more and it’s gonna become plainly obvious, and now there’s 10. That’s just delicious. They can’t silence them all.
Can’t or won’t?
Seriously, though, I wouldn’t be surprised, if a bunch of suicides or “retractions” are happening soon.
How about 2 million if you shut up? No? How about we publish this dirt on you? Would be a shame, if some nameless robber orphans your children.
It certainly warrants investigation, but the way the second guy died is actually not particularly suspicious. He got pneumonia, then he got MRSA in a hospital. 50,000-100,000 people every year get MRSA in a hospital setting, almost always people of his demographic with pneumonia, and it is incredibly lethal. We have upwards of 10,000 deaths a year due to it. Again, almost all casualties are his demographic.
And it is suspected that thousand of elderly people are murdered every year, but it is ruled as a natural death, because the demographic is prone to natural deaths and nobody bothers to check further.
At the very least demanding a throughout investigation in both cases is absolutely reasonable.

So in other words, very plausible deniability.

We had that tech in 1968. I’m pretty sure it would be a matter of a phone call and some change from the couch cushions for Boeing to create that outcome.
Does this mean they did it? No.
Does it warrant the reaction folks are having about it? Absolutely yes.
So “it can be done” is now evidence of a grand conspiracy? What did I say that remotely indicated I didn’t think it was possible from a logistics perspective? How does showing me the existence of a heart attack gun from the 60s prove boeing murdered people? How is any of this relevant?
This is why conspiracy theories don’t die. “It’s possible that…” becomes “I could see that…” then it becomes “that happened.” All without a single shred of evidence necessary. We have wild imaginations.
Does this mean they did it? No.
Does it warrant the reaction folks are having about it? Absolutely yes. (Edit - In light of their current troubles and the fate of the prior whistleblower.)
I stand by that statement, and don’t feel like trying again to connect the dots on the relevancy of my example for you. Whatever you are arguing about is - not the same.
I have said multiple times this warrants an investigation. The issue is people here have already decided what the facts are.
which could cause death in minutes without leaving a trace.
Aside from the puncture wound.
From the article:
All that would be left behind was a tiny red dot where the dart entered the body, undetectable to those who didn’t know to look for it.
Which can be missed by an examiner
Well that’s it. Case closed. The existence of a heart attack gun in 1968 proves Boeing killed 2 whistleblowers in 2024. Good job gang.

Literally no one has made that statement, including me, the guy who brought up the heart attack gun. Take a breath man.
Yeah I’m so worked up over here…?
He is clearly implying that the boeing thing is possible because things like this exist. Otherwise why bring it up?
They may have ironed that out, this article is talking about tech that is more than half a century old. We got from first aeroplane to man on the moon in less than that.
The first wasn’t coincidental. He said “hey they might murder me” then he died right before testifying.
Well, iirc he didn’t show for his deposition, or the day after, or the day after that, at which point the lawyers sent people to find him and found he “committed suicide”.
This is after he said “I am absolutely not going to commit suicide over this. If I die and people say it was suicide, I was killed.”
Planely obvious
1 dead whistleblower is a tragedy. 10 dead whistleblowers are a statistic.
nice reference 10/10
10/10 survive yes?
I give it a perfect 5/7
With rice?
Currently at 2/10 but they’ll get there.
2/12
2/12 so far
I still don’t see why they can’t.
How is your polonium tea comrade?
Even one death under these circumstances is not a coincidence, and that ought to be coded into law. You’d better fucking well hope the person who blows a whistle on you is healthy - that’s the world we should move towards. Not that that couldn’t also be abused, but the pendulum is way too fucking far this way.
Any serious issue should have a paper trail of some sort. Emails, meetings, part rejections, that sort of thing. There are processes in place to allow anonymous reporting of some of these things.
It’ll be such a surprise when it turns out all 10 have been suicidal for years and/or extremely susceptible to infection.
Imagine them going crazy and stuffing themselves in a suite case.
Well, you would have to be a little bit suicidal to blow the whistle on Boeing now, after seeing what happened to the last two guys…
Life insurance premiums are about to skyrocket for Boeing whistleblowers.
One decided to spontaneously hike and fell off a cliff. One was in an unfortunate drunk driving accident. One got hit by an Airbus engine. etc. etc.
They were all invited to do their depositions in some flyover state. The only way there is using flights on Boeing planes.
/joke
Labeling your joke as a joke is the dumbest thing I’ve seen in a long time. That’s even dumber than /s
I knew it’s either your comment or a bunch saying how I’m peddling bullshit. I chose to be ridiculed on style instead of substance.
I fail to see the sarcasm in your comment, as your /s indicates.
The hitperson is the only competent employee left at Boeing.
You could just say ‘assassin’. “Hitperson” makes it sound like some HR-designated position, awkwardly titled in some neutral, milquetoast way as not to offend anyone.

That was intentional, I’m happy someone noticed.
Oh, my mistake
Senior PR executive
Honestly, that makes it funnier to me
Like the title of a Wes Anderson short, lol
It’s just a single shot of Bill Murray driving a car on a highway. He’s filmed from the passenger seat, and he’s telling a story of his dad, who worked as an engineer designing jet engines. And he’s all proud and going on and on.
And as he keeps talking, and as he keeps driving, you keep seeing shots of highway signs showing that you’re driving through rural Maryland on your way to Washington DC. You keep driving and he keeps telling a story about his father and how proud he was and eventually comes out that he worked for Boeing.
And you keep driving and he keeps telling a story and eventually you pull up in front of the building in Washington DC, and he gets out and the camera keeps pointing at the driver seat, but he walks out of frame and he walks into the building and you can hear some screaming in a couple gunshots and then cut to the credits.
That guy is booked through year end now.
Overbooked. This is the airline industry we’re talking about.
His always taking the train to his missions, that’s the reason for the long time between the 2 kills
Are you telling us that there is a chance some whistlebowers have a chance to live into 2025.
Believe or not still not enough time for FAA and other fed soups to do their job
He’s out there playing whack a mole
“Cut off one head and FIVE more will take its place.”
Boeing is about to engage in the most desperate game of whack-a-mole ever.
“the sudden announcement of Boeing CEO Dave Calhoun’s resignation by the end of 2024 was interpreted as a response to the company’s persistent safety issues.”
I hope Boeing has serious bonus claw-backs in their contracts, because this idiot’s “cost-savings” have actually cost Boeing a fortune, and destroyed their reputation. The entire board should go.
The recommendation to shareholders from the independent advisor who proxies Boeing is to vote out several board members who are responsible for safety and QA. Crazy to see at a Fortune 100.
As with politicians and CEOs, it’s the next guy’s problem.
Passing bucks around is what capitalism is all about!
I like that double entendre good job
The entire board should go
…to prison.
at this point, Boeing’s gonna need a defense contractor’s worth of weapons to deal with all of these whistleblowers… oh wait.
Hold on! A SECOND whistleblower died?!
On sickness.
Y u p
10, by next week!

MRSA infection following hospital admittance for Pneumonia. That shit is serious and way more prevalent than people think, it’s just that it usually kills people who are already terminally ill.
Unlikely to be an assassination. But not impossible. Either way, looks very bad.
Yeah after that first whistleblower saying he would not commit suicide, then somehow did it anyway, it is not a good look if a second whistleblower dies, no matter what the real reason was.
You can infect a hospitalized patient with MRSA by paying off one (1) nurse, and I guarantee you can find a nurse who will play for cheap. At this point I’m 50/50 on whether the second whistleblower was murdered.
(Check the date on the article - life is now imitating satire).
10 more whistleblowers

George Carlin did talk about the 20? Senior citizens who past away in Bolivia when they all stood up on a goddamn rollercoaster. Right into the fresh Bolivian La Paz air. I thought I should mention it since free tickets to Dizne could be the first step Being used to reproduce such a catastrophic event.
Watch out you whistleblowing yous out there. Accept no free tickets for Dizne.
They can’t possibly kill them all right?
Boing: challenge accepted
“Aerospace firm” is pretty generous. They’re a defense contractor.
Why not both? Besides, I’m just quoting the article.
I remember thinking movies just had absurd sensationalized plot lines and that our societies were past that shit. Then I saw former soviets killed by alpha particle emitting pills, whistleblowers dying, and now I’m thinking the truth is stranger than fiction.
Hang in there Edward Snowden, it’s amazing that fucker threaded the needle and still lives.
“A lot of holes in the desert, and a lot of problems are buried in those holes. But you gotta do it right. I mean, you gotta have the hole already dug before you show up with a package in the trunk. Otherwise, you’re talking about a half-hour to forty-five minutes worth of digging. And who knows who’s gonna come along in that time? Pretty soon, you gotta dig a few more holes. You could be there all fuckin’ night.”
