So Swift wasn’t instrumental in the sale of Irish children to the meat industry?

Not to my knowledge!

In more general news, Reuters reports that the Japanese Coast Guard contradicts the Navy time, and they state that the collision occurred at 16:30 UTC (1:30 local). This makes far more sense. At almost exactly 16:30, ACX Crystal changed course VERY abruptly and lost 6.1 knots in less than three minutes and 4,000 feet. To me, that SCREAMS collision, since container ships simply don't shed speed that fast unless they've hit something. It's clear to me that the conspiracy theories trying to explain the U-turns are misguided. This was obviously not a deliberate attack—ACX Crystal was getting clear AFTER the collision, then doubling back to render assistance and remain in the area.
