The primary reason behind South Korea's sudden urge to build an aircraft carrier, a ship wholly unsuited to their isolated position directly surrounded by potential enemies and limited coastline, is that the Japanese are building them. It's yet another ego project to outdo their hated rival.

That's not going to happen anymore, unfortunately. The way things are oriented and promoted now is that *every* conversation has to fall within the properly mandated political and ideological boundaries or some people get upset. You have people in this thread spewing vitriol, hate, and (from their perspectives) wishing harm on others because they refuse to play along with an ideological game. With how things are set up now, it's only going to get worse from here, my friend.

The fact that the other political party was the most vociferous during the early months about not wearing masks, not quarantining, not closing off travel to China, and called Trump an alarmist and a racist for suggesting these measures just got memory-holed out of your head, didn't it? This is your brain on Facebook and CNN. *Everyone* used this nonsense to their own political end, and if 2020 hadn't been an election year we would be remembering Covid-19 the same as Swine Flu from years past.

FedEx did this a while ago. Ended up with a pilot named Auburn Calloway, you might remember him.

Regardless what you've been told, holding right-wing opinions isn't a mental illness. The only thing this guy did wrong was violate sterile cockpit, which will be looked into accordingly.

lol at trying to fold the artificial "Asian hate" propaganda into this. Take a break from the TV, my friend.

You can thank Pan Am for that.

Lawsuits against whom? You have absolutely no idea what happened.

In nautical terms to scuttle a ship is to sink it intentionally, to *scupper* a ship is to do the same but beforehand to strip as far possible it for components to repair other ships.

Dallas? You mean Delta 191, which was an L-1011 and had nothing to do with the DC-10, or the aircraft design regardless? Same with Sioux City, which was an engine failure with had nothing to do with the design of the DC-10. Douglas didn't design nor make the engine of United 232, that was GE. People such as yourself are real good, because of the internet and media, at rattling off the "DC-10 deathtrap" memes... but the truth is somewhere else.
