They're just being asshats. Nothing good must come of it, I know that.

I'll tell you something bad too- misreading the thread title.

I read "EMPIRE STATE BUILDING BURNED TO THIN AIR!!!!"

Like noooo, not another piece of history being burnt! NY is full of filth and corruption, but a lot of the old architectural aspects are amazing.

Oh shit...only purpose I can see is for it to induce more panic in an already f*cked up situation.
 Quoting: Pole Cat


Thats exactly what it looks like. In Jwho York. Looks like someone had a (((Hollywood))) movie producer rig up the building for maximum dramatic effect. Theyre herding us into their Jwho World Order. After they lost control in 2016.

The siren is fake. It was added later.

Listen to the acoustics. That does not sound like anything you'd hear in any city. No echoes, and the audio is too clean.

Striking video shows Empire State Building with spinning ‘siren’ red light

The Empire State Building is sending a powerful message to healthcare workers.

The iconic New York City skyscraper debuted what appeared to be spinning red and white lights atop the building on Monday night. The Empire State Building’s Twitter account explained it was supposed to represent America’s heartbeat.

“Starting tonight through the COVID-19 battle, our signature white lights will be replaced by the heartbeat of America with a white and red siren in the mast for heroic emergency workers on the front line of the fight,” the Empire State Building tweeted...

 Quoting: ScrumpTheTexan


Yeah ummm I don’t find that calming at all. They could of done something else like a glowing red heart. But a siren signal, that’s fucked up.
 Quoting: SkinnyChic



They've been doing absolutely everything that they could since the beginning of this to cause blind panic... I don't think it was meant to be calming, at all.

I think it's having exactly the effect that they intended, as seen by the reactions to it on this thread.

Yeah, but normally we have radio or GPS navigation now, that's pre mid 20th century stuff. And GPS is passive, so my radio silence idea doesn't seem right either.

And we'd know quickly if someone were knocking out our GPS satellites.

I'm surprised people were not running for the bomb shelters and pandamonium. How can anyone be this fing stupid? It's beyond logical comprehension.
 Quoting: Trommy


What bomb shelters? I doubt that NYC has any that are still open to the public. Real estate is so valuable here that every inch of space is sold or rented out.

And so many teenagers and millennial transplants in NYC have been so glued to their cell phones, usually social media or games, that it takes a lot to break the spell and get them to pay attention to their surroundings.

Real New Yorkers, either born here or having lived here for many years have excellent situational awareness and will appreciate the Empire Building being lit up in this way.

The Empire State is owned by a private trust. No public monies were used in this. They already got lights up there, it's just that they picked different colors for said lights.
