Literally a truck load of croissants seized by the military is this real life

It’s “9/11” as a brand just like “7-11”

He was sealioning. The point of that kind of troll is to make you go to effort while he invests none and since his world view isn’t based on rationality but rather based on emotions and vibes he doesn’t care that he’s wrong.

AKA typical Reddit brained NAFO jackass.

Good for you investing the effort though you king.

Hey I’ll offer you a used Xbox for you to risk your entire career and possibly a stiff jail term in your home country. It comes with Halo.

I would like to extend my best wishes to all, even the haters and losers, on this special date, September 11th.

I’m not supposed to laugh at 9/11 but I’m allowed to hijack a jet in GTA who is the real monster

The people who died didn’t deserve to die but America deserved 9/11 does this make sense?

Can we please stop celebrating on this awful day, the diada of Catalonia when they lost their independence and became part of Spain you awful fucks

Why?

Why even is getting a man on the moon important?

And if it was important why did we stop?

The value of manned missions was propaganda which is why the Apolo mission was cancelled when it stopped getting TV ratings. Because getting humans on the moon didn’t actually deliver anything of much importance except those TV ratings.

“First game of golf on the moon” good job USA you did it meanwhile the USSR landed on Venus.

Walkable streets are basically fascism when you think about it

What I find the most interesting about propaganda is that it’s not a bad word in the USSR and China (and likely other AES countries) at all!

In fact it wasn’t a bad word in English either until the First World War which is when it acquired its sinister implication since that is what the German ministry of information was called, so “according to the ministry of propaganda…” became equivalent to “fake news because it’s the Germans saying it.”

The German ministry of propaganda vs our ministry of information.

For example, the Irish ministry of propaganda was renamed the ministry of publicity in 1921, and then especially since WW2 it has become uncommon in non-English speaking countries as well since they want to avoid the sinister connotation it invokes in the English language.

I think it’s ok to keep using the term Indian because many within the Native American community have indicated a preference for it.

Also “Native American” is a kind of sterile word made up in the 1970s by coastal libs and so some within the Native American community feel it’s too clinical and empty of meaning.

It’s true that Indian is colonial and hilariously inaccurate but it’s been used for centuries and so becomes imbued with meaning and identity through so much use.

Ideally you use the specific tribal name since they aren’t a single people, like it’s a false category since it isn’t a singular identity anyway except for being defined in contrast to non-indigenous Americans. So where possible avoid the collective noun anyway but when the collective noun is required then the general consensus within the Native American community is that either “Indian” or “Native American” is acceptable, with some taking strong exception to “Indian” due to it being inaccurate but also many equally taking exception to “Native American” for being clinically dehumanizing and equally imposed by white colonizers.

I think the best is to defer to the preference of current company but the idea that the term “Indian” at least has been imbued with a strong cultural identity makes sense to me.
