Personally I got sick a long time ago of having the mawkish sentimentality around 911 shoved in my face while being used to justify bullshit wars that ultimately accomplished nothing and were for nothing, yet killed nearly five million people and displaced nearly 40 more. You can't unleash that kind of brutal nihilism and expect me to take 9/11 seriously.

Also, this actually is a pretty good post from a surprising source. It's funny that it's Madison Cawthorn saying it.

I totally forgot who Madison Cawthorn was so I looked him up, I wonder what his mindset is in posting this since he's a huge chud?

Also I get your reasoning for sure, I think it's just off-putting to really rail on it and make fun of it instead of just being like "fuck this day I'm tired of it" or just forgetting it completely. To each their own I guess I laugh at some 9/11 memes too though so I get it to a degree
