At a guess, 'Frequency Illusion' because people are actually paying attention to this sort of thing for once.

What is Frequency Illusion?

also known as the Baader–Meinhof phenomenon or frequency bias, is a cognitive bias in which, after noticing something for the first time, there is a tendency to notice it more often, leading someone to believe that it has an increased frequency of occurrence

Essentially once you learn of something, say train derailments, you start noticing it a lot even though the actual number of events might not have changed.

Gotcha. Thanks. Is this similar to how people think police are shooting unarmed men all the time?

Certainly could be. I know it was also what was behind the whole "Someone is burning down food factories" thing that suddenly dropped out of the news again. Because let me tell you: As someone who lives in that part of the country, it happens all the time, and is usually not a big deal. I also didnt see anyone talking about grain elevator fires, even though those are far more frequent and are more likely to be deadly (unlike the plant fires).

No, that's deliberate terrorist propaganda. They have called a man who was shooting his gun at police "unarmed" before.

Or attacking with a knife

As soon as I heard about the chicken farms being burned down I wondered if that applied but I never dug into it.

Kinda like how once you buy a jeep you start noticing all the idiots in their jeeps waving at you.

honest question. Would the church burning thing constitute as Frequency illusion or is there evidence to suggest otherwise?

I mean, it could just be to highlight how shit American infrastructure is through neglect and mismanagement...

As when was the last time the rail lines were upgraded?

Yes, we are under attack. Even if recent events aren't an act of outright sabotage, which I wholly believe is happening to a degree, the backbone of our collective industry has been compromised by the push for diversity over quality labor. The state of the West has also had a severe demoralizing effect on employees who are otherwise competent. Many don't see the point in giving their best anymore. Why take pride in your work when the world you live in will have zero respect for you either way?

We're under attack by 'diversity'.

No. A train ran into a truck because someone was retarded.

There are over 1500 derailments a year. Not everything is a conspiracy.

No, this is the fruits of diversity. White boomers have been retiring over the last decade, now there is no civilizing force left to maintain society. It will only get worse

Just two years ago, the trend was small planes crashing into food processing plants.

It's one of those "weird frequency" things where if you pay attention to it, you start to notice that in a giant area of population a half-billion, a LOT of things happen.

I mean while true, you could say the most recent trend was all the power stations being attacked across the country. I mean sure paying attention to it means you'll still see it more in the news, but it's still happening nonetheless and there's no explanation for it yet.

Rather weak tea if this is retaliation for Nord Stream.

It's probably a DIE hire driver / conductor / controller / rail signalling system.

Which social media supposedly went offline? I've had no interruptions in service on either Twitter or Facebook for at least the past few weeks. As far as objects getting shot down, I don't believe that for a second. I'm sure it's a distraction piece. The power situation, on the other hand, I do believe. A storm recently went up the East Coast.

Also NORAD was ddos-ed and supposedly some other secure military links/networks were hacked and went down just yesterday when they were chasing the 4th object.

Comment Reported for: Rule 16 - Identity Attacks

Comment Approved: This is a low-hanging fruit, trope, joke. Allowing for banter is fine. It's obviously a subjective standard, but if it's a joke that seems like it "could" be edgy on normie sit-com it's fine. This is one of those. Obviously we have to have a limit because normie sit-coms are also becoming ravenously anti-white, and are already anti-men, but there is a subjective limit when it's just obvious bantz.
