The San Francisco medical examiner's office determined his death to be suicide and police found no evidence of foul play.
Does anyone else find it statistically significant how often whistle blowers commit suicide within a few days of releasing information or making a statement?
One minute they’re all like “if I die it’s definitely not suicide” and the next they are changing their mind and going through with it…
Yes, but it’s important to not immediately assume that it’s because they’ve been killed.
I’d wager a statistically significant amount of whistleblowers are actually just liars looking to get recognition. When their lie catches up with them, they realize they’ve lost the one thing they had going for them and decide to end it all.
In the digital age where information can be shared so freely and so easily, there’s not really an excuse for whistleblowers to be like “wait until THIS date” before revealing their information.
I’d wager a statistically significant amount of whistleblowers are actually just liars looking to get recognition.
So do you have some research stating that or is it just a sort of feeling?
Because that’s an incredibly wild allegation to be making, impeaching someone’s veracity, especially after a fatality, should absolutely come with some kind of evidence.
It’s just speculation. I don’t know, I could be wrong, but I’d wager I’m right.
Do you think there’s not a statistically significant amount of whistleblowers who are liars?
statistically significant amount of whistleblowers are actually just liars … When their lie catches up with them … decide to end it all"
This is a very unlikely situation.
These stories of nefarious liars abusing poor defenseless corporations would be publicized widely if true. We’d have prominent, well known examples.
This needs people who think the threats and reputational damage of being a whistleblower are worth it for the ‘recognition’, who are smart enough to construct a believable sounding claim but not smart enough to see the inevitable consequences. That specific kind of person is going to be much rarer than people who work for a legitimately shitty company and don’t like it.
Why is that important? No you assume they are/were killed until someone has some real fuckin proof about it
Well, all the evidence points to a suicide so you don’t really have a point here.
I’d wager that baseless claims such as these are statistically likely to be backed by click farms and corporations looking to control a narrative or, at the very least, create enough noise to muddy the signal.
I could go on- but the point is made.
On the off chance you actually have that thought rattling around in that cavern between your ears… I think you need to possibly exercise more critical thought and familiarize yourself with concepts like Occam’s razor.
Everyone is absolutely entitled to their opinion… Including you. With that said: it is my opinion that you are either a paid actor, an idiot, or a troll.
I mean, you can wager whatever you want but it’s possible you’re wrong. You people are blowing my words out of proportion, probably because you see the downvote ratio and can’t formulate your own ideas.
For example, if you think I’m wrong without any information to contradict me, then you’re also speculating.
You should take a break from these forums. It’s clear you’re willing to twist your brain into knots just to fit in with the popular narrative, and that’s not healthy.
Gonna block you now. Goodbye, and good luck.
