 The Trainwreck in East Palestine Ohio - WTF?
#1
Okay, we all know that about 4 weeks ago, a train derailed after hitting a tanker truck releasing a ton of chemicals in the town of East Palestine Ohio, right??

Get this!

In 2022, Netflix released a series called "White Noise" in which a small town had to be evacuated because a train derailed after hitting a tanker truck.

Where? ....

East Palestine, Ohio... where the film was shot. Several East Palestine citizens played extras in the movie.


Quote:It isn't long into the film "White Noise" that the line between fiction and reality starts to blur.
  • During the movie's second third, a tanker truck carrying toxic materials crashes into a train in a small Ohio town creating an airborne toxic event. Sound familiar?
Why it matters: On Feb. 3, a real-life freight train derailment occurred in East Palestine, Ohio.
  • Just as in "White Noise," which was released in November on Netflix, the East Palestine derailment resulted in the venting and burning of carcinogenic chemicals.
The intrigue: "White Noise" was shot almost entirely in Northeast Ohio where several East Palestine residents worked as extras in the movie. What they're saying: Ben Ratner, an East Palestine resident who played an extra in "White Noise," told CNN the film "hits too close to home."
  • "The first half of the movie is all almost exactly what's going on here," Ratner said a week after the derailment. "Everybody's been talking about that."
  • No one associated with the film nor DeLillo has commented on the East Palestine derailment.
State of play: Since the train derailment, the trailer for "White Noise" has been viewed on YouTube more than 325,000 times, more than double the number of views during the previous two weeks.
Threat level: The East Palestine derailment forced hundreds of people to evacuate and caused alarm about toxic fumes and water contamination from spilled materials.
  • Ohio Gov. Mike DeWine said Wednesday that water in East Palestine's municipal system is safe to drink.
Meanwhile, the ending of "White Noise" veers into Hollywood fiction territory with violence and a strange dance number.

Well people, take in consideration that there has been another derailment in recent days, but the EPA Ohio claimed it wasn't dangerous like the first one. Sarcasm Right. Let's hope they're not lying to the public to hide the true extension of the damage done to East Palestine, Ohio.

If it just had happened once, one could simply say it was a tragedy. The thing is that they made the PVC ingredients contained in the cars explode when that was not the best option ever according to some experts that have raised their concerns about it. But derailments taking place twice? The same year!? Detective Something's definitely going wrong there!

Maranatha!

The Internet might be either your friend or enemy. It just depends on whether or not she has a bad hair day.

This is true... not just that, but I'm just mind-blown that Netflix of all people 'predicted' it...

It's like the Simpsons all over again.
