The main issue is that he used heavy machinery for cleanup. If it was by hand it probably wouldn't have resulted in any legal matter

Yeah, he went way beyond simply removing trash:

The team removed more than 200 bags of rubbish along with branches, thick layers of silt, weeds, discarded household appliances, used needles and even abandoned weapons. Their goal was to restore the natural flow of the water and remove years of accumulated waste.

He basically dug up the entire riverbed. That isn’t something people should just be doing ad-hoc.

Not the person you replied to, but I viewed it on my phone where I don’t have an ad-blocker, and I got bombarded by ads. There was a full-screen ad that hid the page when the page first loaded, and then there are full-height ads embedded in the article every few paragraphs. I’m sure it’s a lot cleaner if you have an ad-blocker.

From the article:

The data, which comes from a system called multilateration, does not show precise altitude and speed information, but it does show the plane fell to earth at a rate of descent of 1,541 metres per minute

92.46 km/h

But still, that’s indeed very slow for an aircraft like that. I’m sure they just worded it that way because it sounds faster.

Isn’t this exactly the type of situation that was being used recently as an example of when an order is so blatantly illegal that the soldier is required not to follow it?

Article in 2027:

Keyboard prices soared this month, as tech giants pivoted from failed AI projects to employing hordes of monkeys typing randomly. One CEO was quoted as saying, “Just a few trillion more dollars, and I think our random typing model could reproduce the lost contents of the Library of Alexandria.”

He was nearly missed.

But he wasn’t.

And that’s why he isn’t around anymore.

…he could not exact what was described as a “master plan” to purge a third of the country.

Geez, just call it a “final solution” and stop beating around the bush.
