No one was injured, and the farm has returned to normal operations

First responders extinguished an industrial fire that threatened a Perdue Farms facility late Saturday.

Authorities say a soybean processing tank in Chesapeake, Virginia caught fire just before 9 p.m. Saturday, and it burned for roughly an hour. No one was injured in the incident, and Perdue Farms facility managers said the damage will have little impact on operations, according to WTKR.

“ But, in any case, do not EVER expect the gaslight media to actually dig into this story and actually do any real journalism. Because, instead, they have a different purpose than to inform people. Instead, they seem determined to gaslight the public.”

You raise a good point. But it is also true that people outside the media can do their own research on this. I have. All these fires do not fall outside historic norms. Almost none of them (including this one) cause significant damage. Most have occurred at very small (even mom and pop) type operations.

There is an element on the right who wants to believe everything is a planned conspiracy. That’s simply lazy. Fake news is fake news whether it is pushed by the left or the right. Ignorance is ok. Willful ignorance is not. And anyone who thinks there’s a “coordinated attack” on our food industry is too lazy to do their own homework. That’s being willfully ignorant.

Gates is sponsoring this crap. Just my intuition based on what he does and is doing.

I remember when there was an outbreak of a seemingly large number of grain elevator explosions throughout the midwest. Seems like they just went away after awhile...

My first suspect right now is Russia and their willing co-conspirators.

You're too funny!

BTW, are your sponsors paying you by the post?

You've made a declaration, now prove it with facts!

Sometime after all the strange medical events are related to the covid vaccine?

Nothing to see, move along.

I don’t believe in coincidence. Never.

That is my feeling as well. I think some group of fanatics who worship the earth or consider Climate Change a their own personal fundamental religion are behind this series of destructions. There is nothing ‘random’ at all about it.
I would expect the Biden Admin. to hide such facts from the public, since his people want some new way to keep us upset and willing to cooperate with The Government.

Re: 8 - Why would the media need to do a statistical analysis?

Look at this thread, and the several intellectual giants that have concluded or claimed that these incidents are related and have to be some sort of a larger plot. No evidence at hand, but they HAVE to be.

All done so ppl blame these nefarious events for food inflation rather than the Fed’s over-printing so Gov can over-spend.

I also declared too many people on the right are too lazy to do their own research. Why would you take my word for research you can easily do yourself? Do a DuckDuckGo search for meat processing plant fires each year in the last decade. It’s easy to do. DuckDuckGo allows you to set the time frame of a search. That’s what I did. Then I added up the fires and realized what is going on this year isn’t any different than years previous.
Stop relying on other people to draw your conclusions for you. Use your brain. Do your own research. And come to your own conclusions. There are almost 37,000 food processing plants in the US alone. There’s been about 12 fires this year and almost none of them caused significant damage. Most have already been investigated and found to have accidental causes. Facts matter. Look for them. And stop letting other people do your thinking for you.

Quit dodging the question.

You made the assertion, now back it up with facts or it is just the action of a Troll.

Yes, they do. And I get paid in dollars as opposed to the rubles your sponsors promise to pay you.

Here’s the facts. You’re either too stupid or too lazy to look anything up yourself, so I could really say anything and you wouldn’t know if it’s true or not. Took me 10 minutes to produce the list below from 2017. This is JUST meat processing plant fires. The current conspiracy list floating around that has suckered people like you includes things like abandoned buildings and food pantries. Good enough for low IQ conspiracy nuts apparently.

Here’s the results of a 10 minute search on meat processing plant fires from 2017 alone.

And just for fun, here’s a link from Reddit with clickable links to each of the incidents that suckered people like you into the current fake conspiracy. You won’t read it either because you prefer to have people tell you what to think. But someone else might be interested.
