    The Boeing situation is a great story of “if it bleeds, it leads”: planes are literally falling out of the sky (none so far in the USA but elsewhere around the world this has already happened), although at the same time it is also as you say “the boy who cried wolf” b/c nobody seems to really care, b/c of all that hyper-inflation effect.

    The super odd part is that I’ve been hearing rumblings along these lines - of pilots and engineers quitting and refusing to fly or even be passengers on those planes - for several years now, but much like the elections these facts do not truly matter, and we will just keep trying the same thing over & over again.

    Worse, that statement is true regardless of country - e.g. Brexit too. The enshittification process is not restricted to just corporations, but instead seems a worldwide and if not all-encompassing then at least widely-ranging phenomena:-(.
