Comment on Remember: 9 months until we build a statue of this guy.

I guess what the pictures don’t convey is how fucked up the people are, and how awful the ambient sound and sights are. This is a video someone made of Philadelphia at night, and it’s quite shocking.

I’m not trying to say it isn’t awful. I’m trying to say that they would have made it look that awful if they could have.

Oh, I gotcha now. Yes, I guess it’s really just too clean, and the people too sane, which is a result of it being thrown together in under a week, on a limited budget.

Also the show is worse in some ways. They were forced into camps that they could not leave, with bo medical care, food, jobs/etc.
That would definitely be some peoples preferences, forced camps instead of dealing with the issue, but that was part of the horror of the “show” setup.
