I didn't say that none of this was nefarious. I'm just not automatically jumping to the conclusion that every single thing that happens in life is evidence of anything, good or bad. Sometimes shit just happens.
What I'm trying to get people to do is to make fair, logical assessments of these occurrences. Because other than it being fun and exciting and bringing some entertainment to boring lives, there's really nothing positive to just jumping off the deep end and declaring everything out of the ordinary to happen is part of a conspiracy. Especially when those convictions are based on little more than social media post headlines. I would bet good money that most people here didn't even bother reading the article included in the OP where it says flooding from heavy rains were most likely the reason why the barges in this story broke free. Why bother to read the information provided in order to find a logical explanation for what happened when it's just so much more fun to come up with these elaborate scenarios where it's all part of some big plan to, what? Fuck up some dams or bridges or waterways or something?
Because that's exactly the type of thing that turns normies off and makes them ignore everything that might be lumped in with it.
So, it basically boils down to what one's ultimate goal is. Either its to red-pill normies, and stuff like this actively works against that, or it's to live in a cocoon of make believe where everything that ever happens is evidence people want to kill you and everyone you love, in which case, then this definitely helps to achieve that goal.
Again, this isn't to say that conspiracies aren't real, or that bad actors don't do evil things. Just that it's important to not become paranoid about it, and realize that it's important to take into consideration multiple factors beyond the obvious (i.e. "I'm seeing more stories about river/Bridge disasters in my social media feed, so that means river/bridge disasters are happening more!")
I guess what I'm really saying is that people should just be smarter about all this than what they're showing here.
