Man those things already look ideal to knock over, you’re asking for some tiktok stunt to take this down lol
P l e a s e
That would be gold
It was 23 years ago now. It’s entirely possible that the manager who had that put up doesn’t even remember 9/11.
I mean, this was in 2016.
People made worse decisions that year. A lot of people.
And not just in the US.
But sovereignty, mate.
Does this mean if we see a display like this today, a lot of people are about to make another bad decision?
What happened on the 9th of November? I forgot.
1307 – Knights Templar officer Hugues de Pairaud is forced to confess during the Trials of the Knights Templar. He was persecuted on the charges of false idolism and sodomy.
At this point, is being American basically a religion? Such weird cult-like displays of patriotism…
Pretty much. Secular education tends to begin with Columbus sailing across the Atlantic and seldom ventures north or south of our boarders – let alone touch on the rest of the planet until World War 2, after which a lot of curriculums just end. Elective courses are better… which is why nearly every year at least one of the states try to ban them.
Most of our protestant schooling likes to make special note of the fact that people fled here to escape religious persecution, that this or that sect wouldn’t be possible without American Freedoms™. Hell, Mormon scripture straight up says the US is a promised holy land.
There are few large countries in the world where this isn’t the case. Nationalism, in general, is absolutely a cult.
There’s probably like 40% of us, at least, who aren’t jingoistic fuckbrains.
And they can’t afford to miss a day of work to vote, thanks to that other 60%.
Yeah, that’s about right. Not voting is just as bad as voting for the wrong person. There’s this giant chunk of America that’s sleepwalking everyone else into chaos.
No, it’s just what’s on my passport. There’s not much I can do about it.
It kinda is
They call themselves Patriots. They are a cult.
Yet we’re still doing business with Saudi Arabia, who actively participated in planning the attack at a state level
The reason, same with Israel, is because the US needs allies in the Middle East. A lot of “shock and awe” was launched from bases in Saudi Arabia. Which is extremely unsettling. But it highlights why the US keeps these countries as allies.
who actively participated in planning the attack at a state level
None of this is true. He was an outlaw in Saudi Arabia and left it in the 1990s and never returned. The US though was still working with Alqaeda in Central Asia before 9/11/2001.
there were state officials sending video in DC etc. They’ve found evidence of all that after. State officials played a role in helping.
Yeah where’s tower 7?
This may come off as ignorant, but what is that whole “We will never forget” supposed to mean? Like for what purpose will you keep reminding yourself of this?
It was pretty much stolen from Holocaust survivors. The original idea was ‘never forget the Holocaust so that people will understand that hatred leads to genocide.’
It has no concrete meaning in this context as far as I can tell.
I think it was just the brand of right wing patriotism under Bush. That’s back when people used to wear NYPD hats and t-shirts even though they weren’t cops.
FDNY shirts/hats were everywhere.
Yes those too. That was super weird to me.
If you keep pickin’ that scab it ain’t gonna heal right.
Control.
“You have to take off your shoes at the airport and then let a random person take pictures of you naked before getting on a flight because we need to prove that you’re not a terrorist. Remember what happened the last time we didn’t do that? You can either submit to us, or we can have another terrorist attack.”
It also marks a time in history when people started going back to church in order to find some semblance of an explanation, and the churches like the increased attendance. They’ve got to keep us scared that the “terrorists” are around every corner, and they have the only solution.
Now you too can help destroy the twin towers
What the fuck was this merchandiser thinking?
How old is this photo? That’s a good price for a 12 pack of soda…
A price to die for
3 for 1 special.
It’s s twin tower sale
Weve collapsed our soda prices. Twice!
Fire sale
I’ll never forget… when you could buy a 12pk of brand name soda for under 5 bucks. Got a 12pk of mtn dew baja (well the free 3 cans ver.) and coke last week… 20 bucks! 😿
Cursed jenga?
I just wanna see the person who decides that this art is cool and all but they really do need a few packs of Coke Zero so…
This is solid level 2 Walmart art.
There are 7.5 known levels.
Nothing wrong with this
I hate buying 12 packs and then finding out that half of the cans are depressurized(and unfizzed!) from being crushed because of these stackings :(
