any sailors from the Gerald Ford reading this post
thank you for your service π«‘
Both of these come to mind
I hope they embed right, I'm testing a new Lemmy client
Works fine for me!

First the put laundry where the poop goes...
Then they put fire where the laundry goes...
Where are they gonna put the poop?
Where the fire goes, duh.
The poop deck obviously. Frig its like you people never read or something
Stop telling me to read Mark died like 500 years ago it's not even applicable I just go by vibes oh wait this is something else never mind
Unfortunately, nobody has ever really worried about dumping human waste in the sea.
I know it's probably just them revolting against bad working conditions and not being part of a genocidal imperial hegemon. But then, so were most of the crew of the Potemkin.
Itβs because they may die for a change
Isn't this the same ship where the sailors were flushing clothing and stuff down the toilets, and clogged them all up?
Clogging toilets is one thing, but setting fire to your own ship sounds like a pretty extreme strategy. These guys really don't want to be in the game.
I wasn't aware it was on a six month deployment that was extended TWICE and is now on the 11th month
lmao they're absolutely revolting against the brass, extended deployments is a mental health killer for troops, there's definitely sabotage
Sounds like they went from WARfighter to WOKEfighter 
I still love that little picture so damn much
Considering the fire started in the ship's laundry facility, I'm calling this one "SchrΓΆdinger's floating dormitory full of dudebro manchildren who have never once cleaned a lint trap in their fucking lives."
Respect your electric clothes dryer, or it will literally burn you alive.
Thank you for coming to my 
talk.
This is the same ship where they were flushing clothing down the toilets. It's pretty likely that the fire is the same people that did that in my opinion.
I gotta believe they're not having each individual sailor do their own laundry unsupervised like a laundromat though right? Surely there are people whose job it is to do the laundry for the whole ship? So maybe these people know their shit well enough to get away with making it look plausibly enough like an accident or something. I have no idea though, I'm just speculating wildly
Big if true, doubt it tho. Still hope they feel anger by being suspected of.
I personally think this one is true. This is the ship that had the toilet sabotage, where sailors were flushing clothing down the toilets.
They fix that and then fires break out? These sailors want to go home and they're trying to force the ship into it.
You keep suggesting/stating the toilet stuff was sabotage when there is little reason to believe that.
Ever see the toilet suction on a ship? That will tear the clothes right off your body, and suck them right down the pipe. I'm sure that's what must have happened. There's absolutely no other explanation for how those clothes got into the toilet. Surely it wasn't done by young sailors who want to go home and get laid.
An earlier report by NPR on January 17 already exposed the toilet problem. According to the report, the vacuum sewage system of the Ford means that a problem with one head can cause all of the toilets in that part of the ship to lose suction, making it difficult for the maintenance crews to isolate a problem. The crews find everything from T-shirts to a four-foot piece of rope clogging the system. https://www.globaltimes.cn/page/202602/1355709.shtml
If they're finding t-shirts flushed down the toilets that is 100% sabotage.
This ship is only supposed to be deployed for 6 months at a time. It has been deployed for 11 months. They have every reason to be engaging in this behaviour. They want to go home.
"Sir, there's no way the Sailors did this to sabotage our efforts! Support for the war is nearly 100%!"
'Did the survey specify which side the support is for?'
they probably scared because they are gonna face a foe that can actually punch back. If it was a typical weak foe, these sailors would not have any problem doing their Imperialist duties. What's a few dead poor brown kids, as long as you get free med and college eh?
Sir! you cant prove shit sir!
Jam a blΓ₯haj in the lint trap, fill the dryer with oily cotton bathtowels, run on high
That behemoth is way over due to return to port and isn't scheduled to return for months. It should return to port every 9 months (iirc) and its been deployed for over a year.
I heard recently it was supposed to be a six month deployment and has been extended twice (once for venezuala war crime, again for iran war crimes)
Coming Soon - Cuba War Crimes!
Wondering out loud if aircraft carriers got arms on board someone might HYPOTHEICALLY do a muntinity with?
They do. All US ships AFAIK have an armory for small arms in case of emergency, patrols/lookouts, or they have to go ashore for whatever reason in a war zone. They're incredibly strict and of course there's a hall monitor chud who counts every bullet and gun that gets checked out while keeping everything under lock and key.
of course, we disavow such actions.
