I'm beginning to understand why that train derailed in East Palestine. Watch 👇

Jesus christ, you guys do know this isn't real, right? That is clear and obvious video editing. That's an absolute impossibility if you've walked tracks. 100%. They took an image of an old rail line and superimposed the train on it. A good video editor could do that in 20 minutes. You can see the edits.

I thought not the bee was the one that told truthful info? Babylon was the satire site? Maybe I'm the idiot here and this was satire, but that 100% is not real. Please tell me no one thinks this is real??

I can't see the edits, but I don't have any training for it. Explain it.

I sure hope it's fake. That looks crazy.

I hope this is sarcasm. I appreciate your takes Rich, but seriously? It's a still image with a train superimposed. Easy tell it's fake. First, no nature, no movement of tree limbs. They're blurry, yet the train is clear. They cut if off before the "rough" part where the gauge/width of the track has no possibly of traversing. Also ZERO chance any rail line lets trees grow that close to the tracks let alone multi ton expensive cargo to traverse those tracks.

Just the curves in the rails make it fake. It's an old rail line someone took a photo of and some crafty video editor threw a train on it which is child's play. No train engineer would go through something that looks remotely like that. I don't have a link or proof, but from my educated opinion with some okay video editing and knowledge, it's fake as can be. Watch the trees. There's glitches in the video every 3-5 seconds or so, sometimes shorter.

Rewatched it 10 times now for this comment. 1,000% fake.

WookieMan says

Yes, the "jump cuts" are obvious. Also, railroads do constant maintaining of even the stones below the tracks, let alone the rails.

Tree limbs are clearly moving, and what you think are "cuts" are just MP4 encoding transitions I think.

Who knows if that's in the United States, or if that rail line is often used.

Here, I think this is the same track.

richwicks says

Yes, if that is in a 3rd world country, I could certainly believe it. Just look at some roads in 3rd world countries. They can't even maintain those well.

RWSGFY says

From the 1970's. 1:29 mark look at the car in the background. I'm sure they did that shit back then not maintaining tracks. No chance in hell that's happening now. The only caveat is needing to utilize a route in an emergency. Original video Patrick posted is fake though for sure.

I'm sure there are overgrown tracks that are rarely used. I don't doubt that. Likely not used at speeds that would derail a train. They send out locomotives to clear tracks in the mountains just to see the rails. You derail millions of dollars in products and equipment, especially chemicals, you're in deep shit financially.

Either way, they said it was a wheel bearing failure from what I've read. Not impossible. Improbable. But definitely not shitty looking tracks like the video I first commented on. A train cannot traverse those tracks. It's physics and math. No chance. The width of the rails was too far apart in multiple sections.

WookieMan says

Original video Patrick posted is fake though for sure.

This is the original video:

https://twitter.com/JackPosobiec/status/1626356622279819264?ref_src=patrick.net

It does not have cuts, it's not a static picture, that's a real train moving. I think the reason the one posted here in mp4 form, is that it's been over-compressed.

The way modern compression works is that sprites are made of what changes in the video, and what doesn't change can simply not be updated. If you over-compress it, the background will appear to NOT move, or will jump when it gets updated. I think that's why it appears that branches aren't moving and the picture looks very low res and is not moving.

I don't really want to die on this hill though. Our infrastructure sucks, and our government has betrayed the population.

If this was 1980, and this happened, Palestine Ohio would have been evacuated. The government just lies to us, it's ridiculous. FINALLY people are waking up to it. They wouldn't just fucking deny anything happened. 40 years ago, the media and government would be like "we can't just ignore this" EVEN if they wanted to. They don't even give a shit about their credibility anymore.

WookieMan says

Either way, they said it was a wheel bearing failure from what I've read. Not impossible. Improbable.

There's a video where a security camera caught the train passing where a car APPEARS to be on fire on the bottom of the car. That was 20 miles before the accident.

I don't want to look it up to find it, and honestly given our intelligence agencies, I wouldn't be surprised if it's a faked video just to sow confusion about the whole thing.

richwicks says

I don't really want to die on this hill though. Our infrastructure sucks, and our government has betrayed the population.

Going to have to disagree again. At least here in IL. Our roads and bridges aren't perfect. They're way ahead of other nations. Just because we don't have high speed rail doesn't mean it's shit. Our freight rail is probably 2nd to air travel in safety.. This literally is what my wife does for a living. People from across the globe come here to learn about our infrastructure. Americans just bitch a lot about it so we tend to think it's shit. It's simply not.

We have too much land mass, so we don't have what Europeans have with regards to trains. We don't need it either, too slow even high speed. Given the land mass we're experts on engineering the stuff we need. Even with high speed I'm in St. Louis from Chicago in an 45 min on a jet. A train with stops going 220mph is still 3+ hours to St. Louis. Both options you'd have to drive and park so that's not a valid point.

We're a self deprecating nation. Real estate and infrastructure are two topic I know better than almost anyone active on this forum. I spend hours studying it and learning about my wife's work. I meet and know the people that build it all. There are NOT active train tracks like the ones shown in the video. 100%. The video is a fake or not in the US. Even then I'm skeptical it's foreign.

What's it called, deep fake or whatever? You can take my image and voice and make me say what you want on video. Taking a still image, tossing a train on it is something a high schooler could do. The image may be real, but it's physically impossible for a train to stay on that track. It's superimposed.

Not talking about trains.

When I say infrastructure, if we went to war with China, we'd be fucked. Look at everything around you, what was made in this country? Our education system sucks. Chicago is a freaking gangland. Our electrical system and water system hasn't been updated in decades.

We don't need high speed trains, I'd agree with that. We're too corrupt as a nation to build them anyhow. Project is planned, money is stolen, it eventually gets shut down.

I doubt the rail line is that often used, but I wouldn't be a BIT surprised if that's a real rail line. One of links I gave you just has a collection of shitty rail lines.

Palestine Ohio is dead, I'll bet my left nut that the homeowners at best get a token amount of money, and the rail road doesn't suffer any serious consequences.

We just spent 2 years poisoning people with vaccines that don't fucking work. That's our country.

We are so goddamned bankrupt it's not funny.

Yes, in some very real ways, we are already a 3rd world country.

richwicks says

One of links I gave you just has a collection of shitty rail lines.

Which could have been from anywhere. Could be the US, from 1970, that's 50 years ago. 1:29 in that video look at the car in the background. That is NOT 2012. I don't care about rail lines from 50 years ago. That wasn't 2012 or 2023. We do sell train engines to other countries as well. Grass growing just means it's a one off branch use maybe monthly for one industry. Doesn't mean it's dilapidated or non-functional.

China isn't a problem. Our major infrastructure is built in place. Concrete materials, asphalt, oils, etc. Steel would be the only thing, but most modern bridges are concrete with rebar prefabbed and dropped in via crane. This is in Wisconsin. Check a manhole cover walking around even in CA. You'll likely see Neenah, WI on it. https://groupnei.com/

Concrete: https://www.prairie.com/en-us

I'm 12 minutes from a quarry that does gravel for the region and mixes asphalt there. Again, all American.

If you're worried about cheap Chinese toys, I could understand. My uncle had massively huge contracts with Caterpillar here in IL. I'm not talking out my ass. I know the industry. I don't want to dox myself. My wife will be a national figure at some point. I've fucked around to much here for it to ever be found so I tread lightly. Send links all day. I know what I'm talking about on this topic.

To elaborate, do you think China is reporting their freight train derailments? Answer, no. Guess who doesn't show up to the national conferences for infrastructure.... China. I've met people from most European nations, Australia, SE Asia, Brazil, etc. They are NOT going to China for infrastructure tips. Demographics are the mitigating factor in all of this. Much of the world is fucked. We need to navigate the shit storm that's coming in a global economy. China doesn't want war. They'd have Taiwan by now if they could or wanted to.

East Palestine Residents Are Breaking Out in Rashes

Locals who live near the train derailment and release of toxic chemicals near East Palestine, Ohio, have complained about various health problems since the incident unfolded earlier this month, including rashes, headaches, and other issues. And they’ve expressed concerns that these new symptoms may be tied to the chemicals that were burned or released.

Who specifically? The workers who almost went on strike due to shitty conditions? And why would we expect the rails to be any better maintained than the trains running on them(sparks 20 miles before crash)?

Interesting timing of this program:

Staying there is a mistake. They should self-evacuate whatever the cost. Waiting on the government to do the right thing is never a winning strategy. Dureng the actual Chernobyl disaster the CCCP government insisted that people should participate in May 1st festivities 4 days into the thing and only started evacuating children in 3 weeks later.

The Chernobyl disaster happened on April 26, 1986.

Pripyat was evacuated on April 27, 1986

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pripyat

Just demonstrating you pull a lot of crap out of your ass and smear it all over this board.

Even the fucking COMMUNISTS of the collapsing USSR was better to their people than our shit government. Of course, the people at Pripyat were engineers, technicians, and scientists - not trivial to replace.

Started watching White Noise, the netflix movie that apparently "predicted" this. And I have to say I disagree, from the reports on the web it seemed eerily close to the actual events, but there are quite many differences. It feels like a dark version of a national lampoon movie. The biggest "coincidence" is the location, that is definitely a bit eery.

I think there is something to the consent piece for why predictive programming is done. Definitely lines up with Satanic practices, although in all other respects, completely false.

It's a fake video. If you don't believe me it ain't keeping me up at night. It's 100% fake. Let me know when you've edited 1,000's of hours of video for marketing purposes. You and rich can soak up the lies. I'm not wrong.

richwicks says

Whatever. The country falls apart and pepole just deny it, and I don't want to argue it.

Why are you worried about any of that? That's what I was talking about with cheap Chinese toys. The true valuable stuff is made outside of China in multiple countries or here. The chips they make are for a fucking karaoke machines. Heaven forbid we don't have those? China is dying. Most clothing isn't made in China. Guess what, everyone has what they need to be clothed currently. My buddy makes textile materials and NONE of it comes from China.

Building materials are mostly from America. No different than Germany firing up coal power plants for energy during this war. It will cost money but we can build/manufacture anything here with current facilities. Somehow China can build a fake hospital in 10 days during covid but we're helpless to create a mundane product like sheetrock? If you trust China more than the USA, I'm sorry, you're 100% wrong. We have more assets and resources than the entire world. China can go away tomorrow and it's a 6 month hiccup. It's why we don't have to worry about the debt. No one can collect. We could dump China for Vietnam or Indonesia over night and "maybe" have a 6-12 month rough patch.

I'm not an America is best person, but we have the demographics. We have the finances. We have the military. It's just the reality. We don't need China. I don't care who lies. I like having the best liar in all honesty and know it.

Those railroad videos are fake and/or NOT in the USA. Let me drive your Lamborghini on a gravel road. Except a train engine is 10x's more expensive. I'm surprised how easily people are fooled.

Did I say the video was definitely legit? Did you look at the tracks in the site I linked to? I believe I demonstrated by linking to an independent site that the track conditions are legitimate, regardless of what we think of the video. Further, the image I linked to is from Ohio.

NuttBoxer says

Did I say the video was definitely legit? Did you look at the tracks in the site I linked to?

What does a video I'm not even talking about have to do with anything? The video you linked, were you there when it was filmed? Did you witness it? You know the exact location? I could film something in Arizona or Afghanistan and you'd have no clue which is which.

Media manipulation has been around forever. With modern video tech it's rampant. If rails in the video you linked were real it would have been posted a long time ago if there was honest journalism. There's not. Only when a train derails with toxic chemicals. How convenient.

Truckers have a massive lobby. You don't think after an accident like this they'd send out propaganda? Factor in pipeline companies. There are plenty of people, literally millions that want to bash rail transportation. No one gets the game until they've played it so it's not your fault, but just think about it. You take advantage of a crisis.

WookieMan says

It's not a video, thanks for confirming you made an assumption. The website appears to be train hobbyists. Opinions are fine, but if you want to know the truth, you have to find evidence, not just ignore links and make blanket statements.
