Sputnik provides more details on the blast:

Four Turkish Nationals Died, 8 Rescued in Kerch Strait Tanker Fire

As many as four Turkish nationals were killed, eight were rescued and four went missing after the fire broke out on board two tankers in the Kerch Strait, the Turkish Foreign Ministry said in a statement.

According to preliminary information, the fire broke out on Monday during the transfer of the liquefied natural gas from one vessel to another.

The Russian Federal Agency of Maritime and River Transportation (Rosmorrechflot) said 12 people were rescued, 10 died and 10 were reported missing.

"As a result of the fire on the two Tanzania-flagged ships, Maestro and Kandi, in the Kerch Strait, four out of 16 of our citizens who were crew members died, eight were saved, and the search of four missing is ongoing," the statement read.

Previously, Rosmorrechflot told Sputnik that there has been no oil spill or other environmental damage after the incident.

This is just the latest in a string of worldwide fuel related explosions, but this particular incident occurred in the Kerch strait, an area Ukraine has been using to antagonize Russia:

• Huge gas explosion at university in Lyon, France
• British spy vessel sighted entering Black Sea following Ukraine's Kerch strait provocation

Comment: Robinson states he was embarrassed at being 'had'. But that's not the only thing for him to be embarrassed about. He used his biases and influence to inflame outrage on the right against an already victimized boy. This is no different from what we see on left, most glaringly in the recent incident involving the 'MAGA' kids and Nathan Phillips, the Native American 'elder'. People on both the left and right are having their emotional strings pulled. It's not like this is a modern phenomenon either (although the effects are amplified through technology). We see this same act played throughout history: the Inquisition, the Salem witch trials, the lynchings of black people in America, and so on.

The awful reality is that there is something in the human nature of the masses that loves a good public stoning. Ideological possession allows for people to drop their inhibitions and engage their inner animal. It blinds people to the nuances of reality as well as our commonly shared humanity. Tough times are made worse by call-out culture and the vengeance it demands. The public will not develop a better society by 'naming and shaming' their neighbors. We get it namely through the hard work of assuming the small responsibilities in our own world and making productive contributions to others. That comes first. If we master those things, then we might begin to tackle more complicated tasks and build our competence.

Ideally, it would be competent people who are tasked with the responsibility of identifying social harm, as this remains a need. Unfortunately, there are not very many competent people in the media. Many people also give trust away too easily when it comes to accepting what is depicted in the news. This too can be a sign of ideological possession, but it is also an indication of lazy thinking that we all share as a fundamental operation in our minds (Daniel Kahneman describes the process as 'system one' in his book Thinking Fast and Slow). Perhaps some people will learn as these incidents continue and become increasingly more intense. Others, as we see, will continue to favor their fixed beliefs over reality. That's a rough road to travel.

Comment: What doesn't seem to be covered in this survey are questions showing the public's awareness (or lack thereof) of psychopaths in positions of power - being the main reason why most voters will likely remain grossly dissatisfied with party politics.
