That was a heartbreak earthquake. Footage of the incident live really shows how disaster out it was. I can’t imagine living somewhere that this could happen. So many buildings built to not withstand Mother Nature. I half expected this thread to be littered with conspiracy theories about how this could be a response to them getting f16s, but I guess it’s still early. Prayers to the citizens of Turkey and Syria.
Coming up with any kind of conspiracy theory here would take stupidity and ignorance really to the next level, but I get you. It wouldn't be surprising either these times. So before anyone really decides to come up with some insane theory, better get familiar with seismic fault lines, how they work and please explain how someone might have influenced anything...
The worst thing is the constantly growing number of victims. Every time I refresh my news ticker the number goes up significantly. This is a disaster. It is not even certain at this point whether more impactful earthquakes are underway. They have had hundreds of smaller ones just within this short period of time.
It is good to see though that the world seems to be sticking together and everyone is willing to help.
