This IS censorship in plain sight...soft or mild form does not matter, it is directly in our face!

I had visited the site of the WTC in November 2021. I was hoping to get a few scraps of steel off the site to make my own memorial. Being a construction worker myself I was sure I could approach somebody on the site and for a couple of bucks get a handful of something. But no freaking way. The site was understandably fenced in securely but what stunned me was the scrap metal trucks leaving the site were under escort by either NYPD or State Police. Very strange.
Anyways, between 9/11 and mid November, when my brother and I were there, the city had not yet had a hard rain and everywhere in lower Manhattan had a dusty, dirty appearance. Awnings, buildings, trees, sidewalks, you name it, all dusty. And the whole area smelled like so many musty old concrete demolition jobs I’ve worked on.
People we’re still walking around as if in a fog. It was eerie. Somebody was going to pay a terrible price for what had happened.
And somebody was going to profit.

There are lots of stories about that and what happened. The one thing that struck me was the steel had been pulverized. Little by little it's all coming out. Nuff said.

Dave is just trying to keep the peace amonst several hundred KZ enthusiasts. We all have our opinions the question is "How do political arguments help KZRider as a community ?"
The answer is "They Don't".
If you want to argue about politics, DO IT SOMEWHERE ELSE !!!!
If you think Our efforts to keep the peace amount to censorship, TAKE IT SOMEWHERE ELSE !!!!
Your reference to "Brandon" changed the whole tone of this thread. I think you should accept that responsibility and refrain from dragging us into political discussions in the future.
