    “What about this note that says, ‘If I die, it wasn’t suicide’?”

    “That’s still technically a suicide note.”

    Same as most other whistleblowers are die because of suicide, accident or a sudden and strange illness, by system.

    So its either presured into suicide by lawsuit from Boeing or murdered and made to look like suicide. Either way its fucked up.

    Just like those people who shoot themselves in the back of cop cars with their hands cuffed behind them.

    “Open and shut case Johnson. Sprinkle some crack on him and let’s get out of here.”

          If yours got converted, then the server you’re using, doesn’t support drag and drop gifs.
          Instead of drag and drop, upload the gif to some other server, that allows such stuff and use that link in the ![alt_text_here](image-url) format as given by @[email protected].

          For instance, the above comment has its GIF stored on tenor.com, which is less probably the default provider (for when you drag and drop) given by lemmy.world

    The bullet that killed him matched the gun in his hand, like okay that’s fair. But they use that as the justification for suicide. Like, of course if you want someone to look like they killed themselves you would use a gun and place it in their hand. Didn’t we learn about this kind of basic subterfuge in our teenage years watching TV/Movies.

    Whistleblowers risk their entire reputations and careers in the pursuit of doing the right thing and stopping corporations from committing crimes. Isn’t that the opposite of wanting to kill yourself? Courage in the face of tremendous opposition??

    Well I certainly hope all those pigs don’t do the same thing, but they always have a high tolerance for shame
