It must be nice being a chud, because you can just be brain dead and never having to actually think.

The most likely turn of events this describes:
American businesses place an order and pay for it.
Goods placed in container by seller.
Buyer realizes tariffs make the order too expensive and tries to cancel it.
Seller agrees to a partial refund.
Seller believes return shipping will be more expense than it's worth and says they don't want it back.
Ship does similar calculus and dumps it.
These aren't temu or aliexpress orders going to consumers. Those get shipped by plane or from a local warehouse.
Thankfully I don't think they're just being dumped, just diverted
Well that's good! There are actual low-value items (cheap plastic toys, for example) that aren't worth shipping back to the seller but it's not a bad outcome if they got resold on the cheap to a poorer country.
