I think people just want to pile on Boeing, and Boeing has certainly given them ample reason to do it.

That said, one might think this is a concerted effort from the Media to put a knife in Boeing the way stories are written now.

Rational people who understand aviation fully understand that every mishap that befalls an aircraft is not a design flaw. The majority (probably, the vast majority) of those mishaps are NOT caused by design flaws introduced by DEI engineers or poor management or construction.

Most aviation mishaps are the result human error or negligence ranging from pilot error, to maintenance error, to carrier policy or administration error.

Boeing has made themselves a rich target, and rightly so, and I think it has become a form of entertainment to ridicule and denigrate them. But it doesn't make the underlying reality any different.
