Ironic since this is a Eurofighter Typhoon

That part of the metaphor is the Cambridge Analytica / Brexit undercurrent of the demented rapist's rise.

I think it originally was meant to be a social commentary on the State of the German Bundeswehr and Austrian Army.

Now trust me on this guys, I'm an aerospace engineer. The issue here, was the plane didn't have enough camouflage paint.

I thought that the issue was that the plane was upside down and on fire, but I'm new to arrowspace enjuhnearing

That's a common misunderstanding. Most issues in aerospace come down to camouflage paint jobs and how cool they look.

You are wise beyond your rears

Okay so - let's take the R/C out of that guy's hands, sell it and pocket the money and we'll put the other one in jail for the lulz. Got it.

I was trying to make a joke about a really shitty situation, chill man. I get it, people are angry. I am also angry.

[–] homesweethomeMrL@lemmy.world 2 points 2 months ago (2 children)

Sorry - I didn't mean "Got it" like 'sure whatever' I meant "Got it" like i'm a dumbass trumper who took exactly the wrong message away from the engineer and went off and did bad things to others.

Apologies for that not working right :D

No worries, text is hard to convey.
