    What exactly are they arguing over? I probably shouldn’t ask, but I’ve been fortunate enough to not encounter any of this controversy on my social media

      I think people are saying that the bridge shouldn’t have collapsed like that just from being hit by a barge and that there was some kind of structural defect in the bridge. The fact that investigators went straight to’ “maintenance was just fine to the ship” is sus.

      A cargo ship lost power and couldn’t steer, ended up crashing into a bridge and took it down. Drivers were stopped from crossing in time, but there was a construction crew on the bridge who fell with it. Several reported dead.

      Now Facebook warriors are arguing that it’s some sort of conspiracy.
