Welcome to c/news! Please read the Hexbear Code of Conduct and remember... we're all comrades here.
Rules:
-- PLEASE KEEP POST TITLES INFORMATIVE --
-- Overly editorialized titles, particularly if they link to opinion pieces, may get your post removed. --
-- All posts must include a link to their source. Screenshots are fine IF you include the link in the post body. --
-- If you are citing a twitter post as news please include not just the twitter.com in your links but also nitter.net (or another Nitter instance). There is also a Firefox extension that can redirect Twitter links to a Nitter instance: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/libredirect/ or archive them as you would any other reactionary source using e.g. https://archive.today . Twitter screenshots still need to be sourced or they will be removed --
-- Mass tagging comm moderators across multiple posts like a broken markov chain bot will result in a comm ban--
-- Repeated consecutive posting of reactionary sources, fake news, misleading / outdated news, false alarms over ghoul deaths, and/or shitposts will result in a comm ban.--
-- Neglecting to use content warnings or NSFW when dealing with disturbing content will be removed until in compliance. Users who are consecutively reported due to failing to use content warnings or NSFW tags when commenting on or posting disturbing content will result in the user being banned. --
-- Using April 1st as an excuse to post fake headlines, like the resurrection of Kissinger while he is still fortunately dead, will result in the poster being thrown in the gamer gulag and be sentenced to play and beat trashy mobile games like 'Raid: Shadow Legends' in order to be rehabilitated back into general society. --

It’s less that this particular billionaire died, but that he, and his lawyers who just got him off on a corruption case also died. Totally unrelated from a car hitting and killing his VP the same weekend.
Yeah this isn't even a hit to get revenge on someone they wanted dead. This is a warning to anyone else thinking of doing the same thing.
I absolutely want to believe this because the timing is fucking wild. But I've been struggling to figure out how a freak storm was engineered to take out the boat. How did that happen?
My understanding is that there's video footage of the storm happening and the boat sinking, so it's obviously not a secret torpedo etc
Sometimes terrible things happen almost randomly in locations where the scum of the Earth happen to be standing and I couldn't be happier. Usually terrible things happen to neighborhoods of poor people who have shitty infrastructure
why couldnt they just torpedo the boat, while theres a storm
Could be boat sabotage? Not so much making the storm happen as knowing they'd likely try and sail in it, and making sure that like, the bilge pump or something wouldn't be up to the task.
This actually sounds plausible
I hadn't heard about his lawyers. Do you have a link?
Oh, nevermind, I hadn't realized they were also on the boat.
