Can we please stop the conspiracy theory nonsense?

It was a funny, gallows humor Twitter post at best. Not something you should actually believe yet. I completely believe that they should be investigated as potential foul play incidents, but we have zero evidence that they were. Acting like it’s already been proven is irresponsible and spreading these conspiracies further and further for no reason is wrong.

Edit: for those of you having trouble separating capability and proof, I highly recommend this fantastic short documentary piece by the legendary Errol Morris. it perfectly illustrates what I’m talking about and only takes about six minutes to watch. Highly recommended to everybody in the thread tbh.
