        Muricans are too comfortable, feeding off the blood and sweat of the global south, to demand major systemic change. You can highlight all the evil stuff their government does around the world, or in this case 9/11, and they might be upset for a while, but at the end of the day, their lives are comfortable and treats are plentiful.

              If it's not worth trying to change the world at all, why are you even here? Go out and do something you love while you still can.

            Yeah, didn't it come out in the last decade or so that the Gulf of Tonkin incident was (almost?) entirely made up, and this was known at the highest levels and pushed anyway as an excuse to get further involved in Vietnam? Not even plausible deniability anymore. Nothing happened.

            Same thing with the WMD lie in Iraq, although I don't know exactly where we are on the path to "this was completely made up and everyone involved knew it."
