That’s the problem though. 90% of people aren’t asking questions. They’re immediately going into panic after doom swiping on TikTok and Twitter. I still don’t agree with this narrative that there’s been no coverage of this or it’s been hidden for some nefarious reason. I heard about it the day it happened and I’ve seen articles about it nonstop. Admittedly that’s a subjective point of view since everyone’s data and algorithms for content consumption is different but atleast for me I’ve had news of it out infront of me since the incident. Social media causes people to act and feel without objective thought. Why would this be covered up by main stream media? Everyone says they’re “liberal” mouthpieces. This derailment is the outcome of regulations put in place after the same chemical was spilled in New Jersey in 2012 and then repealed by a GOP senate in 2017. You don’t think the “liberal” media wouldn’t have immediately jumped on a chance to hammer the last administration? The fact that this panic is setting in 2 weeks later is proof. People claiming that they’re seeing/smelling/experiences of “fallout” in a weather pattern shifting from the location of an environmental catastrophe that happened two weeks ago is like saying “everyone stay safe there’s a storm that spawned devastating tornados in Ohio two weeks ago, and it’s headed our way” Everyone, for the most part understands how quickly the jet stream pushes weather patterns across the country, so alerting people of severe incoming weather from 14 days ago would cause most people to scoff at it as irrational. Introduce a a moderately unknown variable and everyone panics, instead of asking reasonable questions or taking a second to analyze the situation objectively.
