Maybe a 10% chance it was an infrastructure attack by the Left.  

90% it was a fuck up.

BPR Link about "odd coincidences" of multiple food processing plants burning down.

Something odd appears to be happening across America: In the past six months, 18 U.S. food processing plants have reportedly burned down, and Twitter has questions.

"This is an odd coincidence," remarked Wall Street Silver, who posted a collage of headlines from Texas, Nebraska, Oregon, Tennessee, California, and more, all screaming "Fire!"


"Anyone else been following this?" the hugely popular Catturd asked Thursday.

"Another food processing plant gets hit and finally someone is covering it.  Bout time."

If you can make people hungry enough, you can make them do, literally, anything you want them to do. Anything. The communists figured that out a century ago. The democrat-communists are eager to try their hand at it.

"a major distributor in Canada, the United States, and globally"

A major food processing plant has been completely destroyed by a massive fire after it went up in flames over the weekend, according to reports.
The W.E. Acres Crabmeal Ltd. plant in the Canadian province of New Brunswick caught fire on Friday.
The factory produces seafood, fertilizer, and animal feed, and the company is a major distributor in Canada, the United States, and globally.
The company's owner Jim LeBlanc said the structure was a "total loss," according to the Canadian Television Network.
LeBlanc told CTV News that the fire erupted at about 2 pm was started by an explosion in an oil drum.

I dont know how many of these threads I've said this in, but I work in food manufacturing plants regularly. This isnt a conspiracy, its typical production environment problems rearing their head from a variety of factors, which are:

-Most facilities are old and need overhauls that aren't happening
-Repairs that are made are hasty and only good enough to get production going again
-Scheduled shutdowns for preventative maintenance are getting shorter and less frequent
-Not enough qualified employees to maintain the systems
-Lack of proper repair parts for critical systems
-Production being pushed as hard as it can, 100% of the time to meet growing demand

This isn't rocket science, folks. I literally see this every day, and not just food facilities, but paper mills, mining operations, chemical plants...

Everyone is running wide open and nearly all refuse to stop and do proper maintenance before the wheels fall off. The only conspiracy here is greed by the corporations running these plants/mines/mills who wont budget for maintenance or refurbishment.

I'm actually at a grain mill today, as I'm typing this, doing the electrical/process control installation on a new scale system for flour enrichment.

Reactive vs Preventative Maintenance. I see it all the time where I work too.

I have a hard time believing that that a major distributor has only two workers (one of whom is the owner) working in the middle of the day.

This place looks like some ramshackle shit hole that probably did nothing safely and flew under the radar until the incident.

And the whole COVID labor and supply chain issues have made it 10x worse.

Not enough labor to maintain stuff properly.

Can’t afford downtime because your products are out of stock and you need to ship more.

Whole bunch of experienced competent people have left so you have newbies and idiots running the show.

Parts needed for repairs and preventative maintenance are on intergalactic back order so you defer maintenance or half ass it with substitutions or jerry rig stuff.

Catastrophic failures are a predictable consequence.

Listen to this guy.

I work for a company that makes food packaging.  

Although I would like to add that if there was a great conspiracy or group of nefarious intent, they are doing a good job at making it happen.

BUT I am told regularly do not blame malice for that which can easily be explained by stupidity or Greed!!!!

SO where I work I see stupidity sheer stupidity and absolute greed by the investors and all management.

When Interest rates rose sharply the shit kinda hit the fan and new equipment we were supposed to get this year has been cancelled or outright not even talked about.

Good luck y'all were all going to need it.

Eggs are now $5.30 a dozen where i live now in north west ga.
