What if I told you that #EastPalestineOH incident has eerily similar parallels to a movie called, "White Noise" on Netflix?

If you aren't aware of what is going on in #EastPalestineOH, here is a pretty comprehensive threadception.

#EastPalestineOH is finally picking up steam by social media, which is great considering the MSM doesn't want to touch this ecological catastrophe with a 10ft pole.

What I'd like to know is why does this parallel so closely to this movie? #WhiteNoise

White Noise stars: Adam Driver, Greta Gerwig, Don Cheadle, Raffey Cassidy, Sam Nivola, and May Nivola.

It had its world premier August 31st, 2022 at the Venice Itnl Film Festival, then later released to Netflix December 30th, 2022.

The plot starts off following Adam Driver's character, Jack Gladney, who is an academic professor in H!tL3r studies, at the College-on-the-hill ... 𝗢𝗵𝗶𝗼 (yeah.) and his family through catastrophe.

⚠️ 𝙒𝘼𝙍𝙉𝙄𝙉𝙂 ⚠️
Spoilers ahead. In order for me to compare scenes of theater vs reality, I will need to do specific scene breakdowns of "White Noise".

If you do not want this movie spoiled for you, please exit this thread now, watch the movie and come back.

Jack Gladney is married to Babette, they have a blended family with children from previous marriages and one of their own.

Babette becomes interesting later... in a metaphorical sense. But lets jump right into some direct comparisons between scenes of "White Noise" and real life scenes of #EastPalestineOH

So I mentioned Jack being an academic professor in H!tL3r Studies at College-on-the-hill Ohio. His friend and colleague, Prof. Murray Siskind (Don Cheadle) asks for his support in raising a course on Elvis Studies.

So the next scene shows them both in a lecture hall, doing a sort of banter-lecture between the personal history of Elvis vs H!tL3r. The two topics intermingling have to have some sort of intent behind it. We just have to interpret it.

Thats the tricky part of this scene.

Could it be the intermingling of a tyrannical maniac having genocidal tendencies within the idea of it infiltrated in the guise of American pop-culture?

I don't know. I tried interpreting this scene. But what comes next made me stand back a little bit...

Prof. Jack propels energetically with his side of the banter about H!tl3r. He gets to a part of his lecture where he insinuates that the simultaneous attraction to H!tl3r (his followers), was also an auto-attraction to the spirit of death... and while all this is happening...

While all this is happening with the lecture scene, the movie is doing immediate cut-aways to the trucker that is about to crash, and the train that is incoming at high speed.

Back and forth... this scene... and Prof. Jack talking about H!tl3r's genocide

White Noise. East Palestine, Ohio.

White Noise. East Palestine, Ohio.

While the explosion scene is going on in the movie, they keep flashing back and forth between stage scenes of Elvis performing, the H1tL3r lecturer, and the train accident..

It has to have meaning somewhere... but I'll leave you to ponder on that. Lets move onto the next scenes.

Jack then goes home, where he finds his son looking out trough his binoculars on the rooftop (at the train accident). He goes up to check it out for himself.

White Noise. East Palestine, Ohio.

His son seems to be keeping track of everything the media is reporting as far as the incident and the effects they are reporting out.

They went from skin irritation to nausea, vomiting, shortness of breath.

So then in another scene, they show Jack's family showing signs of concern and what does Jack do? He downplays everything. He refutes every concern, every scenario that gets brought up....

Jack's family as dinner, and as in a recent moment updated symptoms were announced, Babette's daughter shows the exact same signs.

Shortly after this, a law enforcement officer in front of their house announces an 𝐢𝐦𝐦𝐞𝐝𝐢𝐚𝐭𝐞 evacuation. The family departs immediately meeting the town on the highway.

And by the way, a car accident occurs... "accident, after accident"?

As they proceed in traffic, they see the grand-scale effects of the toxic cataclysmic incident. A black plume of toxic smoke swallows their skies.

Jack and his family need to get off the highway to fill up, so they find an abandoned gas station.

Jack gets out to pump gas and the scene shows ominous dark plumes shade the skies, but also shows those toxic clouds traveling fast.

Family arrives to an evacuation shelter. They later get met by 𝙎𝙄𝙈𝙐𝙑𝘼𝘾 (Simulated Evacuation) reps that are taking an account of people who exposed themselves to the toxic plume for more than 2min (Jack did).

They then inform of fatal effects from the plume.

Guys. Check out the lyrics to this song in movie, “White Noise”.
