more like 46 dead already

so much for European safety, now compare it to volumes on Chinese HSR and number of deaths there compared to Spain

edit: inconvenient truth for downvoters?

50 according one of the biggesr Spanish newspapers, just open the homepage, you can read 50 even in Spanish

so thanks everyone for downvotes just because you use slow news sources or deny the truth EU high speed trains are extremely dangerous compared to China on deaths/volume

No you likely got downvotes for claiming the yet to be known number of deaths.

I know there have been other Spanish train crashes in recent years but does you're pointing to all of Europe. Source?

Don't forget that several countries such as russia are waging hybrid warfare against the EU, there have been frequent sabotage acts against rail lines and cargo shipments. China is currently not targeted by russian hybrid warfare, and the US does not have a functional high speed rail system at all.

    Blaming Russia for a train crash in Spain is a level of psychosis I had never seen before.

      Wait to you hear people claiming that Russia is invading Ukraine! Why would Russia murder women and children? Definitely psychosis!

          Ad hominem, short for argumentum ad hominem ('argument directed at the person'), is a rhetorical tactic of attacking the character, motive, or some other attribute of the person making an argument rather than the substance of the argument itself. 

    This avoids genuine debate by creating a diversion often using a totally irrelevant, but often highly charged attribute of the opponent's character or background.

    What concrete evidence do you have that this crash, or the one earlier this year, was caused by the Russians?

    You must have an incredibly high P(h)...

    This Russian paranoia is more damaging than actual Russian operations at that point...

    French riots? Russia

    Spain train accident? Russia

    Right wing party wins? Russia

    Rainy weekend? Russia
