>>549202my parents once told me they remember exactly where they saw it happening and i'm not even a burger. i think there are three main causes:
>most people think terrorism is bad>westoids meme it into this attack on le free world and the gays>any criticism of the latter is rebuked by appealing to the former
Is this post copied from the early 2000s internet? The mid 2010s was defined by edgy humor and 9/11 jokes galore.
>>549202it's "safe offensive" because it was taken very seriously by Americans in 2001, which gives it the cachet of being edgy, but nobody actually cares. As early as 2002 British newspapers were doing pull-out comedy supplements by Chris Morris taking the piss. ("9/11 - THE ATTACKS CHANGE FOREVER THE BRITISH CONVENTION FOR PLACING THE DAY BEFORE THE MONTH IN DATES" / "Success of 9/11 attacks giving al-Qaeda acute ‘second album’ difficulty." / "‘Yessssss!' - FIRST REACTION OF MANY BRITISH PEOPLE WHO SUBSEQUENTLY CLAIMED TO BE APPALLED.")
Plus, like loss, it's very easy to pattern match for cheap humor. A roman numeral countdown from II to zero
(Zero in roman numerals, like the North Tower, does not exist) is a 9/11 joke!
