The fact that it was Boeing is irrelevant.

Any aircraft can run into turbulent weather...........

Scary to hit an air pocket like that or just plain CAT (if that’s what it was)

“…plunged some 7,000 feet in six minutes”

“Plunged”? That’s a slow landing descent rate. Normal,landing descent rates are 2,500 to 4,000 fpm.

The Chinese are paying off Boeing workers and execs to tank the company, just in time for the Chinese to introduce a competitor. This is my guess.

Per the above, the seat belt light came on right before the turbulence hit. At least one person had time enough to buckle up. Did some unbuckled folks just refuse to pay attention and buckle up?
