@p @meso rona was the zoom zoom's 9/11

@meso It was absolutely insane. Every movie that contained a shot of the Twin Towers was blacklisted, entire movies were delayed to rewrite/reshoot, like Spiderman had put a web between the Twin Towers to catch a helicopter and that was scrapped. MGS2 had the Big Shell crashing into New York and Konami made them move it. I'd never seen anything like the reaction to 9/11.

@meso The only thing that compares in terms of massive government power-grab and baffling public reaction would be the Rona.

@p @meso Deus ex came out right before 9/11 and the omitted the towers because of some tech issue so they said it was destroyed in a terror attack.
