The Nashville bombing is likely the result of whackadoodlism, rather than religion or politics (let’s put aside for a moment the fact that most politics and religion are fundamentally whackadoodlism… they’re just *commonly* *accepted* whackadoodlism). But even nutjobs need to have some sort of reason why they target this place rather than that. And the link below suggests why the AT&T facility might have been targeted:

Photos After The Explosion Reveal That The Bombing Target The AT&T Building In Nashville Is Reinforced NSA Style Building

Gee whiz, an important communications hub was built rugged, designed to withstand the likes of tornadoes and Russian nuclear strikes? Why on earth would AT&friggenT *possibly* be considered, oh, I dunno, some sort of important national communications asset? Must be a conspiracy! Booga Booga!

The article then wonders why the AT&T facility had a warning sign mounted outside listing “flammability,” “health” and “instability – reactivity” concerns. The author ponders explanations like: “Potential secret chemical? Maybe quantum computing-related?

Somehow, “loaded with lithium ion backup batteries and diesel generators” apparently didn’t occur to said author.

Bah.

There are lots of good reasons why a major communications corporation would ruggedize their facilities, especially the ones so clearly easily accessed by the public. People cranking out looney theories about normal communications buildings being NSA facilities, or remote airfields being UFO landing grounds, or nuclear power plants being stargate terminals, or abandoned WalMarts being concentration camps are just as nutty *and* bad for society as those who crank out conspiracy theories about a wage gap, or white privilege, or faked moon landings, or Russian collusion, or the CIA created AIDS, or the Proud Boys being white supremacists, or Holocaust-was-a-hoax BS, or Creationist claptrap, or Flat Eartherism, or 2+4=4 being anything other than flat reality.
