One thing that stuck out to me was this tidbit on Wikipedia and part of what a lot of survivors interviewed have said in documentaries and such:

I don't feel it's a smug "HEH, I would have done THIS" hindsight kind of thing to think that is absurdly loving stupid, god drat

"Oh yeah a massive explosion just happened in your tower/tower directly next to yours", you loving bet your rear end I'm out of there for the day

in the Grenfell fire in england, the government told people not to evacuate the building. in 2019 a prime minister candidate said they lacked the common sense to flee the building and he would have fled that's why you should support him.

According to interviews and government documents obtained by the Center for Public Integrity, the effort to make Afghans eat soy has been marked by mismanagement, poor government oversight and financial waste. Warnings by agronomists that the $34 million program was unwise were ignored, as was a simple fact: Afghans don’t like the taste of soy.

who said that? if you mean Rees Mogg, as loving abysmal and awful as he is and a representative of weird Victorian values in this hell country, he’s no where near being PM. Not right now anyway. but you’re right that his comments were terrible. a true representative of how we in this country uphold our ruling class so nonchalantly.

I’ve been binging on 9/11 documentaries over the anniversary and the national Geographic doc “A Day in America” is possibly the best I’ve seen. the most annoyingly horrific part is when Stanley Praimnath, working in the south tower, described trying to evacuate with his colleagues after the first plane hit only to be told to go back to work by security. obviously the poor fucker watched a commercial jet then crash into his office a few moments later. American/western subservience to capitalism caused thousands to die on 9/11.

One of my favorite 911 things is that they built the stairwells smaller than regulation to maximize the rentable square footage of office space which made it much harder to evacuate
