If this were a terrorist attack we’d have had a group release a statement claiming to have been done by them to begin with. The whole point of terrorism is to enact political change through the threat of coordinated acts of violence against the civilian population and infrastructure. These conservative clowns always want to think they’re under attack to promote draconian laws to protect our “freedoms”.
That doesn’t surprise me. I could see something like this being done in a terrorist attack. Of course, I wait for the evidence, and don’t speculate wildly and publicly.
I think it’s reasonable to ask questions, explore possibilities, and verify with evidence. What those “news” organizations are doing is beyond irresponsible.
Asking questions is fine. Saying that a boat which you can see on video destroying a bridge didn’t destroy the bridge is entering into crazy territory.
When a plane crashes, “did a naked mole rat chew through the control wiring” is generally not a question people ask. Because that’s a silly question.
I mean… back in the 90’s the news from the other side of the world were kinda iffy, with obvious bullshit like a man in China having an hiccup for 30 years, or another being 200 years old, or the even more laughable idea of a school shooting in the US…
I’ve seen plenty of people not assuming a conspiracy, but instead believing shitty construction is to blame.
Clearly these people have never tried moving furniture before. It’s not moving fast, but once things start going wrong a couch can and will easily push you through drywall.
But aren’t people saying that almost all saying they intentionally steered the boat into the support not that it was controlled demolition or something?
People are claiming it was a terrorist attack and such. Unsurprisingly, mostly on Newsmax and Fox News.

Because they’re the real terrorists.
Also they’d do it at rush hour, not at 1:30am.

It’s the whole “jet fuel can’t melt steel beams” thing again.

I agree! A lot of people have just accepted that crazy is a fact now, which is itself crazy to me.

Crazy is normal.
Yes, but think of the ratings and clicks garnered by speculating wildly and publicly! You’re missing out!

People on the internet got tired of being COVID experts and Ukraine experts and Israel experts and have moved on to bridge experts.
I’ve played polybridge. I can confirm that if a ship touches a bridge anywhere then it will break.
Look, everyone criticized me for choosing those minors as part of my interdisciplinary studies major, I’m going to enjoy this moment.
Andrew Sex Trafficer Tate said it, and people are parroting him.

People are saying both.
