The original goal of bin laden was to get the US to overreact and waste all their money.
… mission accomplished? Also, the taliban are back in power in afganistan…
The terrorists won when the PATRIOT [sic] Act passed.
Blowback from US funding fundamentalists to destabilize the country
I mean…
gestures around to everything
They already won. 9/11 was the tipping point where shit started collapsing.
1990s was the peak prosperity of US civilization. From best music to best promise of hope and wealth distribution. 9/11 attacks were the point of the beginning of the end really.
Completely disagree. Modern music is super good. So many crazy talented artists and such a delicious infusion of genres. So good.
If you know anything about the music industry and publishers today it a complete shit show. No I’m not talking about the artists out there, music will always evolve and art will always be expressed however. The industry is fucked and enshittified. Ticketmaster is a scam, concert prices are ridiculous and a scam, the market for artists is only about huge consolidated record publishers, everything is Spotify and subscription now. No the 90s were definitely peak if you’ve lived it and could access music on tapes and CDs and had a Discman. If you haven’t lived it you only have today’s experience and exposure to music. Content on Radio today is also shit. YouTube is the only a forum for independent artists with no chance of airwaves exposure.
With the exception of concerts I feel like a lot of the things you listed are irrelevant why listen to the radio which maybe will play something I like when I can listen to shit I know I like on youtube music, why bother with the big record labels when smaller ones may do well enough, hell you dont even need a label if you dont plan on any merch, what relevence is a discman when I can have 500 songs on my phone. We are in a golden age of music, it’s just a lot more indie. I can listen to Tyr, Hulkoff, and Danheim with ease even though in the 90s they’d have been largely restricted to Scandinavia.
Much like with videogames the 90s was a glorious era for music but to act like we are in the dark ages is foolish, the dark ages for music was easily the early to mid 2000s.
I’m not interested in talking about the industry.
And it was the goal of 9/11
Obviously fake… FBI too busy protecting Tesla dealerships to do anything else.
On a mildly interesting note, I have never seen this below.
Reminds me of this absolute The Onion classic: ‘9/11 Conspiracy Theories Ridiculous’ - Al Qaeda
Also this classic Seanbaby article http://www.seanbaby.com/news/terrorists.htm
“Bush’s administration, they’re a…den of jackals” gets me every time
I said it before what’s the difference between the terrorists hell bent on destroying the US and the Trump administration … Efficiency
Ah 2014 Onion. The innocence.

It went just as well as the War on Drugs.
(Hint: Drugs won.)
This is so weird, I’ve used Google translate on this image several times and keep getting different results for what the ticker says. I’ve gotten:
- It’s time to go on a long-term cruise.
- The truth is that the ship is not under the influence of the wind, and the ship is not under the influence of the wind.
- The last thing I want to do is to go to the bathroom.
- And the noise is not that loud, it …
I also got something about the bottom of the ocean being a layer of sand on top of another layer of sand, but didn’t get a chance to copy it
Wtf is going on here?
It’s just gibberish in Arabic script. The pc they wrote it on doesn’t even support Arabic as the letters don’t join up.
The truth is that the ship is not under the influence of the wind, and the ship is not under the influence of the wind.
Ain’t that the truth.
Lol just ran it again and got:
The truth is that the ship is not covered with a shipwreck, and the ship is not covered with a shipwreck.
It’s perfect. I’m gonna start talking like this.
It’s like that “boot to the head” sketch, but with tarrifs instead of boots
