"Freedom Tower" Unveiled

The new "Freedom Tower" has been unveiled. Its remarkable similarity to a hypodermic needle serves to symbolize the kind of "freedom" enjoyed under the Empire: the freedom to consume; the freedom to anethetize our minds; the freedom to lend material support to all manner of international banditry.

I hate the hypocritical name (when I hear that word I just want to barf) and the design. If they are going to be put up again, the old desin was just fine

It ought to be called Imperialism Tower.
Now what low wage temps and coffee delivery guys want to spend any time in this bomb magnet???

And what IS up with Indy Media removing all articles about 9-11 and staged pretext for war???

The articles are valid and they are clearly named, so anyone not interested in the topic can scroll past it. It is a clearly valid topic for NYC Indy Media. Com'on!

Wow, what a great thread! Let's make jokes about the name of the towers! That way no one gets mad or upset - not really - and everything is just a-OK!

Now this is MY KIND OF THREAD!
