We’ve been seeing ‘first dominoes’ fall for over a decade now. I’m at the point where I don’t think it’s going to be as big and flashy as people hope. If electing a genocidal rapist as president TWICE didn’t stir the world into action, I don’t think the pitiful death of some no-name ceo is going to do it. Things like this will keep happening, but in the grand scheme, nothing is going to change.

Especially because we don't even know what the motive was. For all we know, it could have been a competitor that wants his job, or a board member who was displeased by his decisions. The people running these companies have shown a million times over that life means nothing to them.

Has anyone checked in with Boeing to see what they were doing this morning?
