This whole Reflection Pool fiasco is like some low-risk, trivial version of the Soviet Chernobyl disaster.

[Tommy Carcetti]

Obviously algae contamination is nothing remotely as serious as radioactive dust, but think about it.

It's an environmental mess that started with an unnecessary and poorly planned procedure that went terribly wrong. Rather than admit that the whole situation was caused by bad planning, the leadership in government chooses to laughably try to cover up its incompetence and doubles down on disinformation to shift the blame on everyone but themselves.

And if they can do it on small matters like this, they can do it on other things as well.

The 2019 miniseries on Chernobyl is a must-watch on the subject of truth and falsehoods in the face of disaster.

1. I don't recall Soviet Union arresting bystanders

for vandalizing Chernobyl?

3. I think the algae infested pool is a reflection of Trump and his

inner circle of greed, grift, corruption, collusion, fraud, bribery, extortion, self-dealing, perversion…murky, toxic, and morally vile..
