Okay - sorry. Too many trolls have given me a bad reflex action

Pretty sure they're joking.

Thanks for that. Sometimes I wish /s was more popular here, for tone-deaf people like me.

It's not needed. Need to think about the sentence.

How could millennials really be affecting aircraft sales? Obviously they couldn't, therefore the comment makes no sense if considered literally. However often millennials are blamed for everything else, so perhaps it's an amusing comment related to that phenomenon.

I know engineers at my work that would say equally dumb things like that unironically and mean it lol

I also don't get people's aversion to /s, do they also only speak in monotone?

Yes boomer, they speak in monotone.

Lmfao I'd love to know why that comment makes me a boomer

It doesn’t. It was sarcastic based on your boomer-like dependence on /s.

But if you think about it, millennials could be pushing a dialogue in popular media that Boeing is part of the big industrial war machine, and deserves to die. I’ve heard lesser fabricated arguments on the Internet.

In any event, thanks for the heads up.
