still less coverage than Trump being the president.

How could I not? It's all they walked about for about year. If they weren't doing a full coverage of it, they were at least making references to it.

No. To be honest, I had no idea what 9/11 was until about 2009. my girlfriend started talking about it and i just had no clue what she was talking about. looked at me like i was an alien. I've never even seen the footage

I'm surprised no one has made a movie about it to be honest. How else are zoomers supposed to learn about it?

I remember my dad coming home and going "swap to the news channel, they're blowing up the americans" and me thinking that, shit, world war 3 is going to be horrible.

but instead the US just hurt itself in the confusion by destroying its few remaining civil rights and then getting bogged down in a lot of pointless self-destructive wars for no reason

could've been worse I guess

To be fair, that's an ongoing disaster, not one that was over by the end of the day

this literally changed the future of the world
where were you guys when it happened?
>parent's bedroom before school

There's one with Charlie Sheen but it's complete and utter garbage.

Through memes

World Trade Center (2006)
United 93 (2006)

They have made movies about it.

Yes and it didn't help that some fucktard started mailing ricin to people a week afterwards.

Anyone got archived news reports of this?

Fuck news reports, I wish I had archived forum logs to see what people's reaction was when it was just happening.

I meant a GOOD movie

Anthrax not ricin.

407 here, god I’m tired of the Dorian coverage. Gas prices spiked 15c the moment it was announced on the radio and now all the mouthbreathers who fall for the media fear mongering are rushing the gas stations en masse like we need to hoard fuel for the coming apocalypse. Meanwhile I’m just looking forward to a couple days of comfy reading weather. It’s all so tiresome.

Every school in the fucking country does something for 9/11(assembly, moment of silence, watching a documentary, etc). You would have to be clinically retarded or homeschooled to get to 18 and not know what 9/11 is. The better question is why would we want people to continue to learn about it? As we all know, 9/11=justification for endless wars in the middle east for Israel's benefit.

what

same. Actually I might have missed it and my dad called me down when it happened.
I also remember for at least a week 9/11 was the only thing on tv and while I was binging after a few days I kinda got pissed about that.

I got told after school by my mum and I didn't give a shit because I wasn't a dumb, fat yank. There was a bigger panic after the 7/7 bombings in london, got kept in school for that and was forced to phone my parents.

8. 8 years.

I will never forget the post where getfiscal accurately predicts everything that will happen over the next 10 years

Oh, my sweet summer goyim

Why is everyone so edgy here ?

I got told after school by my mom and I didn't give a shit because I wasn't a retarded, buck toothed bong. There was a bigger panic after the 9/11 attacks in New York, did what I wanted for that and wasn't forced to do shit because I'm not a child.

Still the most incredible stuff I've watched on live TV

Wasn't there a Nick Cage movie?

It's a shame /pol/ wasn't a thing yet as this was the craziest happening maybe ever. At least since JFK or Pearl Harbor. The sheer amount of ZOGery was mind blowing. I was a teenager in high school and I remember people completely fucking flipped out. Suddenly our rights were gone and people went into a deep state of psychosis. All because a couple of Jews ran some planes into a building.

Also old enough to remember that. I was about nine years old then. Remember adults just freaking the fuck out. The 90s were so much more wild then today. Shit like this was going on all the time.

For real, reminded me of what Yea Forums and /pol/ were like when the Berlin wall got torn down by Reagan. WWG1WGA!

yeah. I was working night shifts and just got up to watch "neighbours" and then the world fell apart. I genuinely thought it was caused by a malfunction in autopilot systems....it never occurred to me that it was caused by political/religious malcontents

The first day or two after there was literally nothing on TV except for 9/11 news coverage. Most channels just went blank or had a memorial placard.

it changed the western and arguably the rest of the world for good

This didnt happen you fucking brasileiro

Publix has some patrician as fuck subs. Maybe the only thing I miss about Georgia.
I don't know why every grocery chain doesn't do something like that between the deli and the bakery.

I'm in my mid-30s and it's legit the biggest thing to ever happen in my life, by far. Nothing comes close. The entire world freaked the fuck out for about three or four years. The Jews managed to ZOG and destroy entire generations in every western country because of it.

It's not even that orange man bad it's that he does such a godawful job convincing the public he knows what he's doing that he comes off way more incompetent than he actually is (which he still is, don't get me wrong).

I think zoomers and youths really don’t understand how exciting 9/11 was. I was a sophomore in high school and that day was terrifying not knowing where was going to get hit next but also feeling like for once things were completely falling apart and it was an incredibly important moment in history. It was like how everyone is hoping for a happening around here, that feeing was real. Very exciting times to be an American.

There were people, smart people with PhDs, who thought war and conflict would never be a thing again after the USSR fell because democracy won and would continue to win forever.

People unironically believed them until 9/11 completely shattered those notions. It was shocking. The West went from the most peaceful it had ever been to actively looking for places to bomb overnight.

Wow shocking and unusual for sure

United 93 is kino.

>Remember the wall to wall 9/11 coverage for months on end?

Can't say I recall. What is 9/11? What happened?

In third grade class at school, the teacher turned on the news and they sent us all home soon after

I remember thinking it was stupid acting like it was the end of the world and extremely stupid to go to the middle east and start invading countries instead of just rebuilding the towers twice as tall with a middle finger pointed at mecca.

A plane landed violently near the Pentagon but there was luckily no damage.

Tom Clancy wrote about it before that.
In my edgy as fuck short stories from middle school my epic fedora tipping trenchcoat wearing hero defeats a global conspiracy called Babel co. by flying a 747 into their headquarters, a giant fucking building, in NYC.
The empire state building got hit by a B-52 once, and it became practice to make skyscrapers capable of surviving that scenario.

I was 6 years old and don't really remember the event at all. Witnessing this live must've been a rush.

It’s literally the most important event of the century everyone has heard of it

>1994 Northridge earthquake
We moved away from LA like 3 months before that happened. In my heart I know if I ever set foot in the golden state again, the big one will happen.
I remember the story about a family car that got caught between the collapsed highway sections. There were 4 people in the car, the parents in front were crushed and killed, the girl in the back was ok, but the boy's legs were pinned. They had to saw through his parents and amputate his legs to get him out, and at 6 years old, I couldn't help but put myself in that situation and lost my shit.

you're an idiot

based redditor

how can you declare that we're only like 20% of the way through the century

Will there ever be a happening of this magnitude ever again?

My elementary school was in the lower east side of Manhattan and I saw it out my window while I was playing the Mavis beacon typing program.
It was a pretty wild day. McDonalds didn't get new shipments of toys so every happy meal for the next week came with the shitty brown bionicle.

The horrible state of affairs we currently find ourselves in is a direct or indirect consequence of 9/11.

>In predicting an age of terror in which "the major work involves midair explosions and crumbled buildings," DeLillo was eerily ahead of his time in contemplating the profound effect that political terror was soon to have on American society. The question of the efficacy of art in the context of dogmatism and violence of a massive scale is central to the narrative. In preparing the novel, DeLillo's editor at Viking, Nan Graham, said, "Long before he had written anything Don told me he had two folders -- one marked 'art' and the other marked 'terror.'"

Loose Change is sufficient

why are you defending a literal millionaire who is also the president of the united states dude. Trump isnt a little kid being bullied at the playground, you are kind of pathetic and quite cringe

Born in 3000 here. Why did your president look like a potato?

Your communist shithole is irrelevant

what was I posting on then

>Tom Clancy wrote about it before that.

That was the ending to his book "Debt of Honor." Crazy Jap used a 747 to kamikaze into Congress as they were in session.

>The empire state building got hit by a B-52 once

That was a B-25 bomber. Definitely not a B-52. Huge difference between those bombers.

Thus far it is probably the most important event. Trump and the Arab Spring are the only things that can compare in terms of influence and precedent

1989. Close enough.

Probably the most based terrorist attack to happen. Especially watching the TV and seeing the mutts realise the world hates them

Everything else is irrelevant in terms of impact on the world. I'd argue Trump's election might be included just because of how polarizing it's been and how the Internet is being used because of it but it's a stretch because he'll be forgotten in a decade.

I remember 9/11, and all the news specials talking about Flight 93, or info on Osama Bin Laden. Interestingly enough, I don't remember hearing anything about the three hijackers or ever seeing pics of them until 10 years later.

Trump is lambasted for the same reason, but for insidious motivation. The news makes money off of anger and manipulation, so while 9/11 was motivated by patriotism and anti-terroristic sympathies, Trump's coverage is intended to make him look bad (when in truth his actions have done good things for the country, disregarding the retarded shit he says on Twitter). The modern day news doesn't care about Trump. They don't care about priming the public for a Socialist takeover. They just know they've lost absolutely all credibility, and want to capitalize on hate-bait clicking, and Trump plays them every time to benefit himself in the long run.

It's ironic, though. A terroristic activity brought the country together, while a good president split it apart. USA is fucked.

Fuck Yanks.

I could agree with that, that's why I mentioned his effect on how the Internet is being used to communicate at the moment. It probably will have a lasting effect far into the future, but in terms of him just being the president I think he will be forgotten. As soon as retards drop the 'he's literally worse than Hitler' or 'he's the true god America needs and he can do no wrong' memes I think his presidency will be looked backed at as a 'oh that happened' type of thing.

Dad picked me up from day care early.

>Something terrible happened today son

>while a good president split it apart.

Trump is a literal piece of shit, according to nearly everyone who has known him personally.

The REAL good that will come from his presidency is the massive amount of reform to our political system to prevent another phony from scamming their way into office, and the staggering amount of environmental protections and energy reforms that will come from the next administration.

The cycle of prosperity under Democratic rule will once again take place, cleaning up after the absolute shit show of another Conservative admin.

Conservatives can continue being marginalized miserable and ignorant burdens to progress they have always been.
