    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.

          I will quote a previous comment of mine on this:

          This sounds like liberal “support the troops, hate the cheeto” wishful thinking/propaganda. Thousands of 18-20 year old, genocidal, dumb ass gross men probably flush all kinds of things all the time (bored, cum rags, ran out of toilet paper so used a shirt, had diarrhea and shit themselves, pranks and bullying etc)

            I’m not trying to “support the troops” lmao. I think they’re a bunch of treatlerites who want to go home and play xbox/abuse their girlfriends because they’ve been at sea for 11 months.

            Also I would like it to be sabotage because it’ll be funny soviet-chad

              So I guess all those bombs being dropped on Iran are just in our imaginations, because these small innocent beans just want to go home and get their free college and wouldn’t want to do anything against Iran and would not hoot and holler in excitement about launching planes and bombs at school girls… Or a couple of dumbass genocidal sailors got drunk or on fent and threw up and shit on themselves and flushed their clothes down the toilet. I have seen worse in public bathrooms, and heard plenty of worse in school bathrooms not sure why it is so unbelievable that fucking crayon eaters, that signed up to do dumb evil shit, do dumb shit.

              Fucking tired of this “just signed up for school” bullshit

          Y’know, I hadn’t thought of that before, but that makes sense. What are they feeding those boys?

        Exactly, I find my old t-shirts clogging my toilet all the time. Sometimes I’m looking for a favorite shirt, and after I’ve looked everywhere, I take apart the plumbing, and it’s always there. It just happens.

      I think sometimes they just do things like that without much of a discernible reason tbh. Not a sign of being particularly dedicated to the mission either way though.
