Biggest Lies Norfolk Southern Has Told East Palestine Residents

After providing educational pamphlets to all the town’s residents, Norfolk Southern explained that a catastrophic crash and explosion is merely the final step in the life of a railroad car.

Though this is obviously false, residents were impressed by Norfolk Southern’s meticulously forged fish suicide notes.

While they themselves refused to drink the town’s water, executives repeatedly argued that the toxic chemical was simply an acquired taste.

There’s certainly a strong correlation, but so far there’s no hard evidence to back this up.

The company should have never claimed that residents would get the good type of cancer that’s treatable and not a huge deal, when they definitely know the cancer residents inevitably get will be the bad kind.

Look, sorry East Palestine, but if you’re dumb enough to believe this, it’s kind of on you.

Norfolk Southern will spend enough money and manpower to fix this on lobbying to ensure they don’t.

There’s another train with outdated brakes barreling through the Midwest carting a metric ton of toxic chemicals as you read this.

No one was dumb enough to fall for that one.

Denying the crash’s severity is one thing, but implying that railroads are simply a mass hallucination is something else entirely.

Shaw would have the entire town wiped off the face of the Earth if he could.

A crude attempt to get the residents to clean up the wreckage on their own.

That wreckage was actually safe and delicious to lick.

While Norfolk Southern was adamant the cloud had been there for centuries, historical records showed no evidence that residents always suffered from debilitating migraines as well as eye, skin, and lung irritation.

The town’s residents desperately needed to hear some good news.

Norfolk Southern has already apologized three or four times; what more do you want?

Suckers.
