Do you believe that with so many recent train derailments it is sabotage?

[sage2021]

One happened a few days ago in Wisconsin that was carrying lithium batteries. Two containers of these batteries ended up in the Mississippi river.
It seems like every few days there is another train derailment.
The big one in Palestine Ohio (?) was caused by a problem with a bolt in one of the wheels. Not sure if it came off or came loose.

The train derailments and the severity of outcomes are a result of decrepit rail infrastructure, loosening of regulations (allowing trains with anything less than of 50% cars carrying hazardous cargo to not be classified as hazardous material trains), managerial decisions to cut the amount of time allowed for personnel to inspect the rail cars, and managerial decisions to save time by foregoing switching heavier cars to the front of the train. And really, why not? Like many things run by our managerial elites, the profit line will go up and to the right, it will make a lot of rich people much richer, and nobody in particular will be held accountable for the occasional disaster.

Yes, it's sabotage. Payback from Putin for the U. S.'s sabotage of the Nordstream pipeline and your nation's overt support for Zelensky.

[sage2021]

@Ptmbrs88
That's probably what it is! I hadn't thought of payback, but you're right. The sad part is that the people in Palestine Ohio are very sick from being exposed to all of the pollution that the 🚆 train derailment caused. Innocent people.
I wonder if anyone higher up has even considered your theory? We both know there is definitely nefarious something going on.

[Sixgunsound]

I assure you the entire nation does not support Zelensky. I don't support either one. It's not my or even my country's fight, and I'm sick of US politicians on both sides of politics getting rich off of keeping a war they or their children don't have to fight in going as long as possible.

@Sixgunsound
I try to keep up with the current news, because the same story changes everyday.
Today Kevin McCarthy and other lawmakers were talking about what to do about the debt ceiling. "The debt ceiling is too high, we spent too much money". "So let's raise the limit to a higher limit, that way it won't look so high".
Then they throw 100 billion + and 31 of our tanks at Zelensky only wants more, and more, and more. And doesn't even say thank you to American's 🇺🇸.
Ha!!!
Their gonna keep social security and Medicare. The next day "We need to cut entitlement spending, which is social security retirement and the only money people have to live on. (I feel I deserve Social Security because I put into it for 30+ years!.)
So, do you think I can go to sleep soundly knowing they might cut off my income and make me homeless?

[Ptrmbrs88]

@Sixgunsound Yes, that's what I meant. The U. S. government, not the people. I don't support either side either.

[Sixgunsound]

Look up FTX crypto scandal, and know that it cannot be the only company doing something like that to launder money for our legislators. There is no reason to keep dumping billions of dollars into a conflict that only effects Biden crime family allies doing Geneva Convention violating weapon of mass destruction research, but then it all made sense once it became public that lots of that cash was being laundered and deposited right back into legislator associated accounts in both parties.

Yep. All those food warehouses burning down aren't a coincidence either. The Chinese buying up ag land all over the US and especially N. Carolina (which also happens to be where their balloon got lost) isn't a coincidence either.

[Sixgunsound]

Texas just banned China buying land within the state, and is looking for ways to get what they already have back into American hands.

[TrueConfection]

@Sixgunsound Excellent idea! The Chinese still have Bill Gates to buy up ag land for them.

[TrueConfection]

Thank you for the MHO ❤

[Sixgunsound]

Fair enough. He is the largest ag landowner on the continent. He must have received the script for the next few Hegelian dialectic disasters ahead if schedule. Then again, he is usually the one that causes them...

[TrueConfection]

@Sixgunsound right

[Anonymous]

I think our infrastructure is rotting and needs major statewide and federal investment and renewal.
Expect bridge collapses, dams busting, building collapses etc.

[Sixgunsound]

Trains have not historically been this accident prone, and the government has not historically sabotaged itself this much period if the distribution of these 'accidents' was not almost entirely in conservative areas I would be more inclined to at least give the accident theory a chance, but the way it stands, no, it is sabotage.

[Likes2drive]

It’s possible but I do see a lot issues with trucks stuck on the crossings which could be avoided if they fixed the old infrastructure everywhere and kept tracks elevated or bridges over them to get rid of the crossings to avoid these problems and accidents with fatalities

[Lliam]

Train derailments, food warehouses and processing plants. I suspect foul play with some of it. Oops, more shortages, more fear, more monopoly by giant corporations.

[ColHathi]

From what I've heard, it's negligence. The companies make more money risking train derailment than if they have to take the time to make sure everything works as it should. Besides, if it was sabotage, surely the companies wouldn't be hiding something like that and we would've heard more about it, right?

[exitseven]

There might be some sabotage. I think there was over a thousand derailments last year. The one in Ohio seemed to be at the wrong place at the wrong time and suspected sabotage but the investigation has not been made public.

[Pudsmucker]

It almost sounds like sabotage. Acts like sabotage.

[GubGubo]

Train derailment is more common than you’d think, it’s only been reported more recently because of that NorFolk derailment in Ohio.

Only governmental to empty a big enough area to imprison the vast majority of the US population, thank you China Joe

That thought has crossed my mind.

Train derailment is common
