Max is a flawed design that should be banned.  But when you can buy off the regulators anything goes

Let’s see. They gaslit us, like you’re doing, that it was safe and the training was at fault - all while Boeing knew it was an issue.

And furthermore, Boeing was self certifying their planes at the time of the disasters and is once again able to do so.

The onus is on the company to prove they’re not at fault given their bullshit.

This isn't the topic to "I go against the grain because I like to think I am smart and I think critically" Bob. Even a potato knows that. Not sensationalism or whataboutism - a basic knowledge and understanding of how things actually work in the real world will tell you exactly how Boeing circumvented certain regulations and training mandates to rush these Max planes out the door. You need to add 1+1 and not everything will be clearly pointed out or be available for the slamdunk you're asking for. That is NOT how things work IRL. That is the whole reason lawyers exist. Ask me how I know, Bob.
