to have an opinion like this, you must never have lost a loved one... to have someone taken away from you, irrevocably, viscerally, and by someone who thinks less of you and your peers than the dirt they stand on... I would pray you don't have to experience such despair

See I like the point you’re making but there’s so much fucked up shit to remember that like. I think 9/11 can take the back burner, yanno? There’s bigger issues rn

no - we are REMEMBERING 9/11 and actively dealing with the issues of today we will not forget the lives lost and the day that filled our entire country with fear and pain and suggesting we do so is fucking ridiculous

I never said forget. I just think maybe we should place equal value on all the innocets the us has killed too, no? You know how many bombs we dropped? How many genocides we funded? How our weapons are still killing people generations later? Hell, I’ve never seen someone give Hiroshima and Nagasaki the same respect they give the victims of 9/11. You know how many people that killed? We can do both, but it better be BOTH. We can’t mourn our own and ignore our faults at the same time

Do you know how many people in the countries affected remember it? It was terrorism not war

braindead argument that exposes your lack of an internal moral compass yes, making the conscious decision to hijack and fly a commercial airliner into an office building to kill as many innocent people as possible is significantly worse morally than collateral damage in a war resulting from said abhorrent act. It’s a definitionally just war, fought justly under the LOAC.

Lack of moral compass? Dead innocents are dead innocents. Maybe you can make that argument on the side of the perpetrators, but there are DEAD INNOCENTS EITHER WAY. If the slaughter is legal, does that make it any less horrific? The law is not morality. Slavery was legal too. And it’s not like we haven’t committed war crimes either. This is all beside the point. Can we not honor the dead while also acknowledging what our nation has done? That we’ve hurt people in the same way we’ve been hurt?

Yes. Lack of a moral compass. You are comparing a perfectly legal strike in a justified war to Al Qaeda terrorists murdering thousands of innocents for the express purpose of murdering thousands of innocents. If you can’t see a difference between the two, that’s your issue, not mine.

For the love of god how many times do I have to say that KILLING PEOPLE IS IMMORAL!!! I DO NOT SUPPORT TERRORISM! I do not support war! I don’t want people dying but they fucking are! They have! And it’s horrific! I don’t think this is a difficult point to agree on! People dying = BAD! Pretty simple imo!
