Oh no I've been blocked by the thriller, whatever will I do? This is such a devastating loss and I don't know how I'll be able to sleep. The thought of not getting notifications that the thriller has responded to my posts with illogical, bias statements sounds horrible.

Well, experts and authorities from USA, Europe and Asia also said, that 737 MAX is a safe airplane before the flights ET302 and JT610.
Why the experts have a "holy cow" status? IMHO today everybody can be an expert if the job title says so specially if you have the right connections. Nobody is blocking me from creating a "Lauriandres Super Research" business entity and claim that i am the expert? Even in my country there are plenty of crystal ball sellers who claim they know the stones they sell have all kind of healing etc properties.
IMHO nothing wrong when somebody predicts something and it is not accurate - problem is, if they continously receive guaranteed tax payers money for that.

How a medical crackpot took over the Trump administration’s response to the coronavirus. Raise your hand if you’re surprised that Trump turned over the reins to a crackpot.
Do you understand the difference between being an expert on something and claiming to be an expert?

So are 737MAX engineers and certify organizations experts or not? Remember, 737 MAX got in the beginning the green light from all the experts over the world and it seems, that all non US ones never did any testing and just trusted the results on paper.
IMHO there is not an 100% working method to verify who is an expert or not. There are plenty of experts who claim, that nuclear energy is bad, VW diesel engines are bad (although consume less fuel than some hybrids) etc etc. Well, in the Soviet time the experts told us that Stalin and Lenin are kind of good guys.
According to WHO the Taiwan specialists are no experts at all, because Taiwan is not an WHO member?
Do you understand the difference between "expert" and "omniscient"?

And in this case, likely dangerous. And maybe, at this point, the number one reason why Trump must be defeated. He is not helping himself telling his rallies that we have turned the corner. I believe the incredible lines reflect the fact that our electorate understand the urgency of ridding ourselves of this clown.

Maybe yes, maybe not
.So - is that person an expert who claims, that nuclear energy and nuclear power plants are bad? Should i go back to university - because i believe-think, that nuclear energy is pretty decent if you know what you do compared to solar energy.
Is Greta Thunberg an expert?
Should all experts be trusted and treated as a holy cow? Even those who work at reputable companies like Boeing (as an example - not a generic bashing to an American company). Aren't for example you, Thriller and One Brow constantly stating, that it is better to listen experts who are more knowledgeable than somebody other? If even FAA and EASA (both respectable organisations) were not doing their job properly regarding the MAX fiasco, then why should i 101% believe everything that medical experts claim?
Why should i believe 101% a group (WHO) who says that a scientists and experts from a specific country (Taiwan) are not suitable for our organisation?
Expertise is not perfection, but it's also not worthless. Even though we disagree on many things, you'll always find me deferring to @infection on medical matters, because he's the expert there.
I don't expect perfection in life.
That just doesn't sound right. I think you misunderstood something.
