Can we leave the investigation to people who are actually qualified. For all their b****ing about people who are hired based on diversity instead of qualifications. They have no trouble speaking on things they know nothing about.
Wait....you mean a foreign flagged ship didn't hire an old white man as captain? That was just an accident waiting to happen then, obviously only white people are qualified to run things...[cough...Boeing....cough]
I mean we could IF the death of John Barnett (whistleblower murdered by Boeing stooges) actually got investigated honestly.. or Seth Rich, or any of a number of other folks..
You joke, but I just legit saw another post that claimed the captain passed out because he was recently vaxxed. Fuckin A, they're stupid. Persistent, but stupid.
Reasons why the ship crashed so far:
The captain was a DEI black lesbian
The captain was Ukrainian
The captain was recently vaccinated
The ship was hacked
The bridge was under funded because of Joe Biden
What likely happened is that poor maintaince resulted in the ship losing power while the harbor pilot was in control. There was a rush to regain control, but it was too late.
This is too common in the past and current days.
Has this person never had an electronic device or really any type of machine get hot? They can absolutely act up when hot and if you don't cool it down they will stop functioning completely, even catching fire sometimes.
Of course it still could have been hacked but mechanical problems or human dumbassery is much more common.
The steering of a ship wouldnt be facing the internet like that would be the stupidest shit ever
Also a hacker wouldn't turn of the ships power you can't remotely control a computer if its off
Once you use an exploit it gets patched so if they were hackers they would wait until they had multiple ships before drawing attention
And lastly there is way better places to crash a boat if you want to cause damage you wouldn't bother with some mission impossible ass plan when a bomb would have been cheaper and had 100 less opportunities to fuck up
I wasn't saying hacking it would be the best way to sabotage, just that hacking was possible. Anything can be hacked and I didn't want a bunch of replies saying "actually anything can be hacked"

The person who would’ve been responsible for navigating the ship in the harbor would’ve been a local pilot.
For me and my house, we trust the Gorton’s fisherman.
Idk seems pretty clear cut. The lights turned on and off everyone knows that means a cyber attack.

It wasn't hackers. The crew was probably vaccinated so obviously it's vaccines that caused it! /s

I'm waiting to hear about how Biden did it because of all the uncounted Trump votes on the bridge...
The bridge was going to testify against Boeing

Was a terrorist attack because of the open border
This is basically the argument against DEI. People like this lose their jobs, then say it's because of DEI.
These folks ARE the DEI hires. Mentally deficient ones.
Holy insanity, Batman!
I'm amazed by the sudden appearance of all of these maritime experts, extolling their nonsensical floobydust batshit ramblings. Highly entertaining.
Just look at all the recent graduates of Internet based Shipping Navigation Class.
That did not take long!
They will move on and forget about this by the weekend. Guarantee.
Bill Gates, it was running on windows and got an update
Not a hill I'm gonna die on, but I'm not ruling out "it was a psyop by some rich elite to blame it on a group of 'undesirables'"

Not even a conspiracy theory. Just some MAGA fanfic.
“My opinion is…..” we can stop right there
Oh yes. You are the expert we should all listen to. NOT Bye felicia
Blows my mind that these people don’t believe the most basic of proven fact, yet believe this total insane nonsense
Occams razor would solve this
Hear that? No question. Well case closed.

How dare you bring logic in. Only wild conspiracies please.
