Conspiracy theorists love conspiracy theories because they allow them to feel smarter than the “sheeple” that believe the official story. They don’t care if the actual conspiracy theory is wildly implausible and stupid, it’s just too psychological seductive for them.
Sorry but couldn’t be me, I am not dumb enough to fall for that cognitive hazard.
Good for you, we all strive to reach your level of enlightenment. Leave the rest of us stupid plebs alone and move along, then.
It doesn't take nation-state resources to kill a random civilian. It's a few tens of thousands of dollars. Even a few million is basically nothing to a corporation like this.
You don't need the whole apparatus, just someone who has been trained by it and is morally flexible. Well, you don't even need that, but obviously people with professional experience tend to do a better job.
We do not have evidence yet of this being a murder-for-hire or similar, but you're insisting on the impossibility of such when in reality it's not all that unusual. Excluding it as a possibility is just as much cognitive bias as assuming it to be true.
That's fair. That said it's also not unreasonable to consider it a real possibility assuming it isn't immediately ruled out by evidence.
>Surely he’s more powerful than boeings CEO.
Stuff like this doesn't necessarily originate from the top. It can be people lower on the food chain feeling the heat on the other end of the blame steamroller.

“They brought them in from other areas of the company. The new leadership team – from my director down – they all came from St. Louis, Missouri. They said they were all buddies there.” [0]
“That entire team came down. They were from the military side. My impression was their mindset was – we are going to do it the way we want to do it. Their motto at the time was – we are in Charleston and we can do anything we want.” [0]

It's most likely he took his own life, although in my opinion it's blood on their hands regardless given the way he was treated.

Why wouldn’t POTUS have journalists killed then?
One current candidate for that office has lawyers who argue a POTUS would be immune from prosecution for such acts.
It doesn't have to be the corporation itself, it could be an ambitious sociopathic underling of a security officer who was himself known and hired for his edgy/dirty attitude and "fix anything" reputation. This is essentially what happened in the eBay case; death threats in the mail aren't that far removed from actual murder, and got people sent to prison (proving the 'legal deterrent' to agents of corporations doing irrational and illegal things isn't perfectly reliable) You keep setting up strawmen to make the thing sound implausible.
You're right, you'd have to be a total idiot to structure your worldview around the assertion that you're smarter than everyone else.
