I’m starting to think Americans never actually gave a fuck about people dying in 9/11, and they only got worked up over it because it was an attack on “American greatness” or something. They were angry at the symbolism, not the death.
I used to think us Americans were selfish assholes because our military would slaughter millions overseas and we couldn’t care less. But now I’m seeing how little fellow Americans care about a 9/11 every day among fellow Americans. So we’re still monstrous, selfish assholes… but at least we’re a bit more consistent about it.
Correct! 9/11 was a big deal because we “let” a bunch of “savages” come to our house (New York City, a place 99% of Americans despise) and attack us. The human toll means nothing.
I don’t think a lot of Leftists quite understand how little value human life has to the average person, objectively, not based on what they say to sound “acceptable”
People were mad because 9/11 is the sort of thing that happens in places that you can’t pronounce and have never heard of, not the Capital of the Universe.
Covid is similar. Plagues happen in weird dirty countries, not here. Why should good, decent Americans not be allowed to go shopping and grab a bite at that fun sit down place next to the mall, with the good sandwiches? Mass death can’t happen here, people just need to shape up (/s)!
