I worked for Marsh & McLennan back then and was scheduled to be transferred to the towers in November 2001. We lost 358 people that day, including a good friend who managed to call his wife after the planes hit to tell her he was ok and not in the towers. Then they fell. His deep baritone voice was the voice of our phone systems for months afterwards. He wasn’t even based out of NYC, he was just visiting the New York offices that day.
That day stings me at a personal level and I was genuinely changed by it, but I believe in the healing power of comedy. So, no…I don’t think it’s too soon. I think it’s about time we heal and this shitpost is dumb enough to make me chuckle on a sad day.
Too soon
Edit: I refuse to /s this post. You all are wrong not me.
Nah bro. We were beating the immediate death toll from 9/11 on a daily basis, for weeks during Covid. Nobody gave a shit about that.
We care about optics, not death.
Shame they never declared War on Disease.
War on Vaccines was a massive success. Measle lives matter.
they actually cut all funding to research COVID.
“Oh no, America got bombed back once” 😆

Damn, that’s rough. If we can’t laugh then the terrorist win.
Weren’t you the one complaining?
Nah, it was clearly sarcasm
I chuckled
Oliver Stone and Spike Lee were cashing in on the story in 2006…so?
Gilbert Gottfried was making 9/11 jokes 3 weeks later
That’s Gilbert Gottfried, gods rest his smutty soul
