After death of Joshua Dean & John Barnett, their lawyers are concerned about the possibility that around 10 more Boeing whistleblowers may suffer the same fate.
I understand that, but when it comes to public forums, it’s important that people stand up and say “no, this is wrong.“ I probably shouldn’t get bogged down in arguments with people, but the initial statement is incredibly important in my opinion. Otherwise more people will start to normalize the thinking.
Exactly! It’s literally a service done to the Truth, which is the main goal for many of us, not to have a feeling of being “correct” or lording that over others or vengeance against someone we do not particularly like as in out- vs. in-group dynamics, but rather to rise above all of that shit and find stuff that really matters.
Put another way: if I make a correct statement, and then follow it up with two incorrect statements, then people should not trust me, hrm? Or Lemmy. Or perhaps this community. “They” get to then state how “wrong” we are - correctly! And making the other side be correct… is something that we should revile and fill us with disgust:-D.
Which is why perhaps how we say something is almost as important as what we say, I am learning, and thought I would share that also with you. Full disclosure: I am usually very bad at it, which is why I want to learn to get better.
