sorry i know its fun to be conspiratorial about everything but let me tell you from decades of experience in labour, it's totally normal to put up a tarp for this kind of thing. Not everything has to be some grand, shady mystery.

HERE'S YOUR PHOTO! How fitting that this ended with yet another shameful cover-up, though. Perfectly, perfectly Trumpian.

it's a last minute construction job in peak build season. That's a decent sized crew, all working OT, that they know will be heavily televised which means strict adherence to safety standards. You do this shit for dust control and benign safety standards. It truly could not be more basic.

When i was a working trades person, i had to deal with a lot of dehumanizing talk and behaviour from people with liberal arts degrees, so logging in to see this website treat guys on a simple contacting gig like they're zoo animals on a live feed is oddly triggering.

seeing videos of the massive crowd there, yelling "SHAME" at the construction crew as they put up the tarp is bizarre as hell. those guys are just doing their jobs! Get away from her! It's fucking weird that you guys are doing this.
