      I can see that there were homes there before, and after I don’t see any. If there’s any fan fiction going on it’s from people speculating how nice it all was for the people who were moved from their homes. Why would an entire neighborhood move from their homes unless they thought it was easier than facing repercussions for resisting? Tell me a fanfiction story about how wonderful this was for everyone.

          And you’re inventing a version of events where a whole community was displaced in happiness.

          I never tried to make it seem like the relocation was some terrible thing or to demonize government for it. I just wanted to point out that it happened and that people probably had no choice. Why can’t the be a discussion about it? Why is your only point that either it didn’t happen or they nobody was upset about it?

          You didn’t bother to have an actual discussion, about whether the developments in and around the photo benefit everyone. Maybe some people had to move from their homes and sacrifice to let it happen.
