    There were no construction workers killed in the collapse! It was all fake!

    The CIA caused the ship to lose power!

    The ship was remote controlled! There wasn’t actually anybody on board until after the collision!

    The “construction workers” were actually deep state black ops agents that were there to loosen bolts on the bridge to ensure it collapsed when the ship hit it.

    And so on… Never underestimate the fantasies that conspiracy theorists can come up with.

      Why is it that hard to believe that accidents happen? Just because something was interesting enough to reach headlines that means there had to have been an ulterior motive???

      I know you can’t make sense of these people, but how the hell do you even make those leaps in the first place…

      I’m going back to my cave.

        My thought is they don’t have much positive going on in their lives so they get validation from these conspiracies. It makes them feel smart because they see the real truth.
