    Do you think the initial 6 casualties announcements was a pr op? There's absolutely no way in my mind that 500 people can have disappeared and yet single digit casualties was tacked on to every headline thinkin-lenin

      yea they slow rolled it hard. the fire was August 8th, they've been missing for almost a month and the superstructure is pretending they're alive

      the death toll is probably over 450

      Media serves to protect the empire first. If it came out there was a massive amount of casualties in a concetrated area due to incompotence or malice, it would be riot inducing.

          (this is kind of tangential to your comment but I'm riffing)

          the idea of a bunch of people with shared class interests aligning their efforts like iron filings in a magnetic field is completely ignored by the hyper-individualized liberal, who will pretend you are positing a ridiculous "conspiracy" with millions of members.
