 It’s been 25 years since my uncle lost his life in the twin towers. He lost it while rescuing others after responding to a call from the fire department, even though it was his off day. He was incredibly brave and I wish I could have met him 💔

Pretty sure shrimp is a leftist (correct me if I’m wrong), it’s supremely shitty to call people racist for commemorating a 9/11 victim unless you have some other proof

She’s an American who blames middle easterners and northern Africans for the “murder” of her uncle so…

Are you implying the terrorists who committed 9/11 represent all Arabs and Africans? That sounds pretty racist to me

Since you clearly have nothing to back up your irrational hatred for OP, I just want to say this. I’m Sikh and plenty members of my community were hate crimed after 9/11. It was an awful and devastating time, for them, all the victims of the original attack, and the hundreds of thousands of innocent civilians who died in the Middle East during Bush’s war on terror.

No one should be stereotyped because of race or religion. But it’s really fucking awful to insult someone commemorating their uncle who tried to save other people during the attack. Does America have a disgusting imperialist track record? Yes. Is it responsible for countless terror attacks in the Middle East? Yes. But 9/11 was a tragedy, just like all of those attacks, and should be treated as such.
