Rest in peace to the passengers of this plane. Right now it looks like they were killed because the Washington D.C. police accidentally flew a police helicopter into the airport's airspace. [cw:death]

Link to video (crash is the lights on the bottom). Obviously trigger warning for a mass casualty event. https://x.com/MatthewJshow/status/1884791272369541211

      I have no idea how this happened, but a false-flag “Reichstag fire” incident is not impossible. I guess we’ll see who gets blamed for it. Trump admin has many possible targets: immigrants, LGBTQ, Muslims (especially Palestinians).

        there’s a bunch of frothingfash accounts in the twitter comments about “DEI hires in the cockpit” so your list sounds about right, add on women and neurodivergent people

              I recall this German pilot from years back who flew a crowded plane into the side of a mountain in an act of suicide and people began theorizing he’d converted to Islam, lol

                I am hearing that as he tipped the nose of the plane down the pilot received the light of Islam and unhesitatingly recited the Shahada. Even now he looks down on the Ummah from the gardens of Jannah. Truly there is no god but Allah, and Mohammad is his prophet!

            doesn’t the FAA explicitly forbid pilots from getting diagnosed with or medicated for stuff? so there’s an assload of pilots that are just rawdogging ADHD, OCD, depression, anxiety, and such 24/7

              Same goes for sailors! Or kind of. You need a “valid medical certificate” and up to 2023 ANY mental diagnoses would bar you. After 2023 you might get an approval if you have ADHD, though it’s up to the individual doctor and good luck if you’re on any meds.

              Why? Well think about it! Would you rather have your supertanker carrying megadeathpollutoroil to be handled by a depressed man in treatment, or someone who doesn’t know what’s wrong with them and self-medicates with alcohol?

        I think its going to be more likely a human error (either the cops or air traffic control fucked up)

          Yeah there’s an airport on one side of the river and a military airbase on the other. That area is absolutely gridlocked with planes and helicopters.

        Whether or not any part of it was on purpose, there’s no reason to let a good crisis go to waste.

        I worry for the air traffic controllers, could see them getting scapegoated for this, especially depending on who the VIPs were on the whitehawk that collided
