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

My buddy brought the bridge up last week and I just said yeah the ship crashed into it, so what, what conspiracy theory is there?

And says oh no conspiracy theory... and then somehow started talking about racism.

So, I'm still clueless on the whole thing.

Idk, wasn't it reported that it was Indians piloting the ship? Probably something to do with that

Some of the talking points I've seen it's somehow because they hired minorities and illegal immigrants to build the bridge, somehow making it weaker
