Too much what? The point I was making was a singular plural unit, just like an amount of (singular) refried (plural) beans.

Too many refried beans.

Do you own too much pairs of jeans or too many pairs of jeans?

Nope, for cutting bone

That article is pretty inaccurate overall... people have reliably lived beyond 40 for thousands of years

That's fair, and I might have gone more neutral than intended. I was just curious if that fit what was in your head more.

Would it be more fair to say: when the music kicks in, the story is being told?

1: I wholeheartedly believe being a whistleblower is a courageous and brave act. Full stop.

2: drawing conclusions as to why these people decided to speak up when they did without hearing it from them is nonsense.

3: assuming and repeating a John Gresham novel from news articles between corporations and their whistleblowers is not only buying into a conspiracy theory, but is also parroting it.

4: partaking in these conspiratorial shenanigans helps no one and isn't something to be waved away as harmless - otherwise, what's the difference here and qanon?

If the "bravery" and admiration comes against the idea of assassination, then it completely matters. Idk why you're hand waving the nonsense here

I'm on your side dude, the response here is kinda nuts.

Well...the first dude did say something about Boeing killing whistleblowers and the bravery of others to step up in defiance of that.

So that whole line of thinking is conspiracy theory stuff with no real proof and it is being parroted here. Granted, usually the assassination stuff is usually tongue in cheek, but the top comment seems a bit crazy.

  • Pay for luxury service
  • Service gets more expensive
  • Keep paying for service
  • Service gets more expensive
  • Complain about cost, goto 1

It's hard to have pity for people who do this, especially if enough people stopped, the service would get cheaper.
