ALBANY, N.Y. (AP) — Delivering another blow to what's left of former Gov. Andrew Cuomo’s legacy, New York’s new governor acknowledged on her first day in office that the state has had nearly 12,000 more deaths from COVID-19 than Cuomo told the public.
I swear, I don’t want to ever hear anyone say the words 9/11 again unless the context is “the US deserved 9/11” or “9/11 wasn’t that bad.” We went into two wars directly because of 9/11 because 3,000 people were killed. The US government has killed probably over a million people now, or roughly 333 9/11s. Unless you’re 333 times as mad at every US politician as you were about 9/11, shut the fuck up.
And yes I know we didn’t really go into two wars because of 9/11, we used 9/11 as a pretext to get into two wars we already wanted to get into but the point stands.
have you forgotten
