Do we have a baseline for how often such accidents happen? Is there a way to track them objectively such that we don't succumb to confirmation bias? How do we know that we aren't finding more of them simply because we are looking?
Today we had an electrical cabinet, or fuse (think industrial) or some other electrical equipment blow out. There was a fire. Major shut down. Rare.
It's a big deal. A lot of work had to go to other facilities.
By tomorrow it will be fixed. By the end of the week the disruption will not even be felt any more. That is how meaningless a fire, even a very rare and disruptive fire, can ultimately be.
Yet with these stories the extent of damage, the time to recovery, and the impact on supplies are never talked about. Without that information "there was a fire" means fuck all.
The fact that we keep hearing the same bullshit headlines without relevant facts despite the fact that this has been pointed out many times proves that this narrative is propaganda. Someone is putting a lot of money and time into convincing you that a famine is coming.
Max two a week out of thousands of processing plants. Just seems overblown out of proportion.
no thats not the issue the issue is are these strategic points and how much does each service. the scope of service of each of these plants is the important thing because with the fuel reserves and grain reserves the plant over being milked dry intentionally or incompetently every plant matters. we need to know the full scope of how it affects the supply chain not just some raw number
no thats not the issue the issue is are these strategic points
Corporations skimping on safety/standards to maximize profits. Seems to be akin to chinese elevator rollercoasters.
Sure kike
Grocery store down the street from me was limiting eggs to 1 carton per household, quoting a "nationwide shortage" I'd managed to remain ignorant of for who knows how long.
