@nazokiyoubinbou @nixCraft As I recall the first one they killed had explicitly warned that he feared fir his life and was adamant that he would not commit suicide and that if anyone said he did, it would be murder.
@nazokiyoubinbou @nixCraft In that case, the "conspiracy theory" explanation would be that he "staged his own murder trying to frame Boeing to make them look (more than they did already) bad" 
while Occam's Razor says Boeing murdered him.
@dalias @nazokiyoubinbou @nixCraft Nope. Occam's razor says it was an infection.
@rjblaskiewicz @nazokiyoubinbou @nixCraft You failed to read. Infection was the second death not the first.
@dalias @nazokiyoubinbou @nixCraft You're right. I apologize. The fact he brought up suicide suggests he had suicide on his mind.
@rjblaskiewicz @nazokiyoubinbou @nixCraft That is the most despicable take I've heard yet.
@dalias @nazokiyoubinbou @nixCraft
Despic it all you like. Most conspiracy theories paper over unknowns with our own fears, projections, and facile cookie-cutter narratives. I think the ready-baked explanations are generally the least plausible. At least my narrative centers on the genuine suffering that whistleblowers face.
@rjblaskiewicz @nazokiyoubinbou @nixCraft I mean the idea that someone says "I'm not going to commit suicide" is evidence of suicide is despicable. It's setting up a no-win situation for someone whose life is threatened.
@dalias @nazokiyoubinbou @nixCraft
Fuck, even his lawyers thought that his testimony triggered him. I don't see anything suggesting that he has a premonition of foul play in the first place. So I retract my speculation. He just killed himself. https://finance.yahoo.com/news/exclusive-boeing-whistleblower-testified-12-100000958.html
@rjblaskiewicz @nazokiyoubinbou @nixCraft Honestly your speculation was more offensive. Your conclusion there is backed by some evidence rather than just "anyone who talked about suicide must have been suicidal".
@dalias @nazokiyoubinbou @nixCraft
You have every right to be offended. Where did he say that he was not going to kill himself? I didn't see it.
@rjblaskiewicz @nazokiyoubinbou @nixCraft It was reported even in mainstream sources at the time it happened. But again, that's not even the point. The most offensive and unjust thing you said was the implication: that, *if* he said he wasn't going to commit suicide, that makes suicide more likely.
@dalias @nazokiyoubinbou @nixCraft If it's a real context. I'm not sure that's been established.
Look, today a multimillion dollar lawsuit against me by a guy who claimed I was stalking him by sending door to door meat salesmen to his house was dismissed by a federal judge. Not that that has anything to do with the discussion, I just wanted to say that out loud.
