Take a look at those 2 numbers again and tell me, which group have you heard more memorializing about from westerners? Yeah lets care about them both equally, that means we should spend 99.99% of the time talking about the deaths in the middle east

I didn't say anything about caring equally. I know that 9/11 is peanuts compared to the atrocities enacted by the US. I just don't find it THAT funny to post a million memes about it, and wanted to know people's actual perceptions since I hadn't seen much actual discussion around it. I'm glad that I asked because it's interesting to hear each persons' unique perspectives while we are all in general agreement on many of the reasons that it feels like bullshit

The memes will continue as long as people are offended by them. Americans really need it beaten into them that their precious 9/11 is really nothing special and they commit a worse crime weekly
