They really are using 9/11 as a meme template now…
Japanese people and nuke memes: First time?
Demon Core memes too
The sad truth is every year less and less people will care. Do you feel the same intensity of emotions about pearl harbor? I know I don’t.
I care more about the million Iraqis we murdered or at least enabled the death of in a global temper tantrum as we set the stage for a headlong descent into fascism.
People don’t think much about Afghanistan already, yet that’s the country that got invaded first after 9/11
To be fair, Afghanistan was actually involved in the 9/11 plot, unlike Iraq.
Yes, all 45 000 civilians killed by the US military were involved…
Funny, because it turned out to be Saudis. And Bin Laden himself was bunkered in Pakistan.
It simply killed many fewer people with an at least half-assed justification, instead of an outright lie to justify a neocrusade.
Turns out it was also a lie in Afghanistan and the people who financed ObL must be laughing their ass off about it!
What’s really sad is that no one cares about Ashurbanipal’s destruction of Elam anymore
Why does that sound like a Morrowind daedric temple?
Memes beyond measure, outlander.
It’s not that sad. That shit was relentlessly exploited to manipulate people into supporting unjust oil wars.
Don’t forgot manipulating people into accepting a surveillance state with open arms!

Early 2000s internet was so much more crass.
I’ll never forget this ytmnd that was made literally during hurricane Katrina.
How long is long enough?
22.3 years according to South Park (for 9/11 it’s actually later this year)
Finally I would say. Americans have been extremely emotional about anything concerning the 11th of September for way too long. It’s 22 years ago. Let the memery commence!
Dann, you can count those pixels
All 911 of them.

There’s an old saying in Tennessee — I know it’s in Texas, probably in Tennessee — that says, fool me once, shame on — shame on you. Fool me — you can’t get fooled again.
— George “W. Winner Winner Halliburton’s Dinner” Bush Jr.
Ah, the good old days when I thought this was the least articulate president I’d see in my lifetime
Fuck the peace sign
I don’t know if it’s true, but there’s the theory that he realised midway through his sentence that he didn’t want a soundbite of him saying “shame on me”
I think Dubya was smarter than he let on, still a war criminal tho
I always took it as him just cutting off the saying and sternly saying America’s not gonna get fooled again. Like a “nah fuck that saying come at me” thing? Idfk I was like 8
I know it’s supposed to be a signature, but it sort of looks like it’s saying “hans_the_shitposter” is responsible for 2008. Or 9/11.
Maybe they are
I knew it! Hans did 9/11
It’s not like they’re going to go broke. They’ll just lose some millions over the vast gains made with bad behavior, get bailed out with tax money from the little people, and do it again in 10-20 years after regulators retire or get replaced with ones sympathetic to business.
Lol you think they’re gonna lose money? They’ll take full advantage of a recession to buy stocks and properties at a discount and sell it in 2035ish for a fortune.
They will lose some money, with the consequences of a recession, only to gain it back through corporate welfare and a return to business as usual as the recession ends.
Guys, 9/11 won’t be funny until the 29th of December. I know you’re excited but until that moment you have to continue treating it as the sombre event that it is /s
Bell Riots here we come
At least then we’ll be closer to first contact…oh but WW3.
And it will be another case of “Capitalize the profits, and socialize the losses”
I really don’t care about making memes about 9/11, jokes about anything can be funny, but if you’re gonna do it at least make sure it’s a good one. This is both offensive and unfunny, which is the ultimate sin lmfao
I hear you. I was in the army when 9/11 happened so I didn’t have a choice but to be involved in the response. I was ready to show how I had trained against the Saudis who attacked us so when all of the units plans changed to Iraq, my opinion about 9/11 and all of the ongoing US propaganda for it kind of changed.
Now it’s over 20 years later and after having deployed three times I have lost more of my friends to poverty and health related suicide (thank you, department of veterans affairs) I would say that the poor suffered more in 2008 then we did as a nation from that attack. America needs us to remember that small attack so that we can maintain endless wars in countries which are proxy, fights and training grounds for our soldiers. We shouldn’t be killing people. We should be focused on making sure the billionaires aren’t crashing the economy in cycles in order to profit from our endless labor.
9/11 should be remembered for the horrific act that it was, but the cult following that it turned into is wrong. How many people died in terrorist attacks in American history and how many people have had their liberties deprived by police, especially if they are the wrong color? Worse things are happening every day. We need to be distracted though.

You almost had it. It’s like you took the neoliberalism playbook, but someone scratched out the last few words and made up their own ending
