I read this whole comment thread but somehow missed that one? What prompted this?

Any post with the name ‘boeing’ usually comes with the ‘actually’ bots. Just give this one some time for them to recalibrate

[–] theherk@lemmy.world 8 points 7 months ago (1 children)

Probably, but I can’t help but feel you are what you accuse here, leveling an accusation at a target which doesn’t exist yet.

Fuck Boeing, but your comment was still a nonsense hammer in search of a nail, and what you said would come never came.

I reread all the comments. Please link to the specific one.

[–] Smoogs@lemmy.world 1 points 7 months ago (1 children)

Please don’t post bad faith trolling.

I actually did reread them, and I don’t believe I’m trolling. I am genuinely curious if you believe a comment here did as you claimed and if so which one? Please be specific.

But you spoke as if its already happening. in fact your post reads as if you are replying to someone? Honestly if anyone is coming off as a bot its you dude. I, of course, don't think you are but....your post makes absolutely no sense in the current context.

No it's just that you spoke out against Boeing and people upvoted you despite the lack of context.

[–] Smoogs@lemmy.world 1 points 7 months ago

That’s a lot of prediction for someone demanding facts.

Those people are just clarifying headlines that give no idea how long the plane was in service. If they’ve been in service for over a decade it stands to reason that the maintenance on the plane might have been faulty. OFC Boeing should be investigated due to the door plug blow-out, and have previously demonstrated their willingness to cut corners with the Max debacle. That doesn’t mean every incident is their direct fault, and Airbus can suffer similar incidents but not be reported on.
