Testikles posted:Nobody will agree on who did it and whether it actually happened If Biden is in office Republicans will immediately start impeachment hearings; if a Republican is in office Republicans will immediately demand Biden be hanged for treason for not warning this would happen That is the part of the flowchart for if it happens somewhere with lots of Republicans I guess. If San Francisco got nuked I promise you 25%+ of Republicans would say it was a great day or that an angry drag queen had done it as a false flag or something else equally incomprehensible

Biden doesn't seem to golf, Trump doesn't seem to like people filming him while he golfs, and DeSantis is only tall enough for mini-golf, so we will certainly be deprived of another "Now watch this drive!" moment.

pencilhands posted:im gay and have a little dick That may well be true but that's not what you've been accused of. Anyway if another 9/11 level terrorist attack happens in America it will destroy the nation psychologically in a way that it will never recover from. I won't even try to imagine what would happen after because whatever I come up with won't be as stupid or mean as what actually happens.

I don't know what weapon will be used in the next 9/11, but the 9/11 after that will be done with sticks and stones. Just a bunch of dudes swinging sticks and throwing stones in a Nordstrom's in Nebraska.

It would be terrible and tragic for like a week and then trump would say something outrageous like "Biden nuked that town" a million times, then all of right wing media would start saying it, then the enlightened centrists would flood us with "did Biden nuke that town??" fact checks, then loving everybody who should know better will start talking nonstop about how outrageous it is, then the controversy over the outrageousness of the lie would get talked about more than the nuking of the actual town. From then on any mention of the town being nuked will be a social faux pas, why are you getting political? Then there will be 5 huge school shootings on one day, nothing will change, and everything will continue to get worse for the rest of your life

When 9/11 gets doubled, it will mean it happens on month 18 of 22. Which will be May, this year. Probably shouldn't plan any cookouts then.

I won't even try to imagine what would happen after because whatever I come up with won't be as stupid or mean as what actually happens. In all seriousness, this. 9/11 rammed down on every mental weak point so many Americans had: This Doesn't Happen Here, THOSE PEOPLE Can't Harm Us/Have No Right To Harm Us, and I suspect subconsciously in a lot more people that we think, This Is The Chickens Coming Home To Roost. Then after several decades of supposed increasing paranoia and stripping of rights in the name of supposed security, it happens AGAIN? With a nuclear weapon used for the first time on a live target since the Japanese? First of all, there would almost certainly and very swiftly be all sorts of innocents being murdered, if not outright lynched, if they have anything to do with Middle Eastern and/or Asian people, including being one; even if it was done by white nationalists, that will likely still keep happening. If it WAS someone in the Middle East, I suspect the nuclear taboo being broken would result in the USA turning it into a seething glass parking lot. I suspect if more 'rational' people were in charge, the next elections would send them flying out in exchange for lunatics who would be promising blood, because most of the nation would be howling for it, I suspect: nothing like fresh horror to sweep away lessons learned. And hell, it wouldn't surprise me if the USA then turned isolationist again, turning inward to 'clean' itself, which of course would probably be more stuff in the vein of ethnic cleansing and misplaced revenge killing than actually going after whoever actually did it if it was domestic. That's the most cynical assessment I can make. I really can't estimate the stupidity because that has proven to be beyond estimation in every aspect. If you told people in 2001 that 9/11 would lead to a man called Barack Hussein Obama becoming President in less than a decade and then after that Donald Trump would be President and do such a bad job he would make half the nation doubt a deadly virus existed even as they died en masse by it, they'd be calling the men in white coats.

I was just thinking about this today; we may think of discrete events like 9/11 or the assassination of Franz Ferdinand as triggers for severe social upheaval, but the tensions that led to those events were already building long before they actually occurred. It's just easier to label them as reference points when looking back. And we've certainly got a whole hell of a lot of tension embedded in our society right now. I cracked open British historian CV Wedgwood's book on the 30 Years' War tonight, and she starts off making the point that in societies before mass media, it wasn't even always clear to the people involved when they had passed a point of no return. This passage in the first chapter stuck out: quote:May 23rd 1618 was the date of the revolt in Prague; it is the date traditionally assigned to the outbreak of the Thirty Years War. But it was not clear until seventeen months later, even to the leading men in the countries most deeply concerned, that this revolt rather than any other incident in that stormy time had lighted the fire. During the intervening months the affairs of Bohemia became slowly identified with the problems of the European situation. That situation itself brought forth the war. Even in WWII and WWI, there was mass media in place to inform everyone that some intolerable act had taken place and we were now at war. Even with mass media more widespread and embedded in everyone's consciousness than ever, I kind of wonder if we might still be able to miss the points of no return. The attacks on power substations recently were the sort of indirect mass violence/terrorism I'd been fearing for a long time, even if the one in Washington turned out to be a couple of tweakers who didn't really know what they were doing. Will those stand out in retrospect as when those tactics became acceptable to violent supremacists?

Aramis posted:You got a point in the sense that COVID was/is way worse in every measurable way. Over a million Americans have died from it and the morons that thinks it’s a sneak attack by China refuse to wear masks because they impose on their freedoms. The point that wearing a mask would defeat this evil Chinese attack never occurs to them.

386-SX 25Mhz VGA posted:9/11 may have been much the same if the imagery weren't so spectacular or the plotters closer to home Sure but then it wouldn't have been 9/11. What made it the the event that it was the media coverage. It was a foreign enemy striking deep inside America live on the morning news. Also over 3000 people were murdered in about an hour. As opposed to a few cops and a couple of the stupidest people to have ever lived in an entire afternoon.

Extra row of tits posted:Over a million Americans have died from it and the morons that thinks it’s a sneak attack by China refuse to wear masks because they impose on their freedoms. their funeral, sometimes literally. The pipeline always goes "I'm not wearing no panties on my face for a cold!!!!" --------> "This covid ain't so bad" --------> "This covid ain't no joke!" -------> calls for prayer or unhinged rants while dying --------> sometimes utterly ridiculous obituaries that go something like "X's soul became too powerful for their body! rest in peace! pot luck at the funeral service!" It's all so tiring.

FIX SIGNS posted:I don't know what will happen, but I'm excited for the inevitable fan art tributes and memorials! Not to mention the livestreams and cascade of social media. In the days after 9/11 it felt like the (North American) world actually slowed down as much as it could to pause and reflect and mourn, the regular programming interrupted in a way it never had before. These days I don't think it's possible to have the majority of society in the US and Canada socially slow down and get united like that. And not just in the sense of politics, "community", scapegoats, and conspiracy theories. There are more blathering talking heads today, a majority of whom are barely semi-pro or wholly funded by their own audience, fueled by their egos and narcissism to always make new content and never ever shut up, turn the cameras away from themselves, or even turn them off outright. The cataclysm and revolution will be livestreamed with commentary by an untold number of wannabe Cronkites and Eberts whose primary goals in life weren't of reporting truths of the world or commenting on art, but rather being able to monetize their geek hobbies, fringe-empowered paranoias, and introverted nerd lifestyles to the point where they could disconnect from the world as much as possible, and they will have the eyes and ears of their fans and followers, most of whom had the exact same aspirations to just plug in and tune out anything outside of their comfort zones even when times were so much better by comparison that MAYBE it might not have ever been as good as it was before or could have been, but it was one of many milestones where the next ones after were a new drop in "it's all downhill from here" but we were none the wiser. What was your life and world like right before 9/11 and the War on Terror? Or the Great Recession? How about December 2019 - especially if you hail from Australia? (Side note: I used to make an effort to be an optimist. Eventually you learn to just get ready for the next punch.)

All US operating tech providers will be required to install data harvesting probes funneling all conversations and digitally shared sentiments to some Peter Thiel funded outfit which will in turn and for considerable profit offer governments a bespoke version of ChatGPT as a convenient and conversational crime prediction tool used at a thousand newly installed internal border checkpoints. It will be far more accurate than even phrenology, e-meters or skin tone color charts.
