    Or 9/11 as per Yank calendar

    Where were you when the news was broadcast ?

    I was working in a bank in Coatbridge - obviously nursery age work placement !

    A TV was rolled out into the main banking hall and the business cash ‘bunker’ to watch events unfold .

    I was an apprentice shed erector at Ayr hospital where I first clapped eyes on a fat @Phinius T Bookbinder

    @jule called me to tell me about it.

    Right away though, I knew it was an juw inside job and holograms had been deployed.

    The most ridiculous and disgusting cover up in history.

    All enacted by the US government and the secret services.

    I thought the interweb was created in 2017. That means I was needlessly buying dirty mags for at least sixteen years.

    I read a piece by an American history teacher who used to start the lessons on the anniversary of 9/11 with "where where you when it happened" but has had to change it to "do any of you f*&kwits even know what happened or are you just too busy scrolling on TikTok and listening to AI drivel to even know that there is a world outside of your narrow minded bubble as you hit Like for Palestine?" Or something like that.

    The event that shaped the world isn't even a footnote in modern American society. They can't see what led up to the attacks, they have no clue as to what happened afterwards and the direct affect it had on the politics of the Middle East. All they can see is what the latest influencer is getting paid to say.

    All of the college students screaming at people and calling them Nazis don't even know how to read a clock let alone what happened in WW2.
