I feel bizarre making jokes about it myself, because it was basically the first horrible thing that happened in my life and I have extremely complicated feelings about it. BUT I'm grateful for everyone who does make jokes about it because it gives me perspective/keeps me from developing America brainrot
As someone around for 9-11 and the "NEVER FORGET NUMBER #1 GREATEST TRAGEDY EVER IN HISTURY" response to it I am in thrilled and invigorated by the fact that younger people just make amogus memes and TikTok nonsense about it. A huge chunk of America cared more about it than any entire genocide and thought you would cry learning about it. They hoped it'd make every generation patriotically angry forever and ever and want to join the military. Instead you Photoshop the towers into squidwards house and shit. Never stop lol
