9/11 is becoming Ancient History

We now have 30+ year olds that either don't remember it or barely do.
We are as far away from 9/11 now as 9/11 was from Jimmy Carter winning president in 76
..time moves on eh

Just a big misunderstanding since "Some people did something."

I remember the 5 year anniversary TV specials and thinking wow it’s already been 5 years. Time flies.

I would say my best personality trait is that I keep it very real.

Yeah. I was 23 when it happened. I’m now realizing it’s more than half my lifetime ago.

I was 16 and am a huge fan of American history so it has stuck with me and I remember it like it was yesterday. I watch the anniversary specials every year because there’s always some small detail or new recording that I have t seen or heard before. I can tell you just about my entire day that day and when I think of NYC today, my mind goes to 9/11. When I fly I look hard at everyone on my flight and size them up to figure out a plan of action if they try anything. It’s just a natural thing my mind does because of that day.
To see people who were young children or not even born yet talk about 9/11 as if it was some sort of joke or not that serious low key infuriates me nowadays. NYC’s mayor just blows my mind. “We will never forget”? Well that was obviously bullshite!

Time moves on whether you like it or not. The further removed people are from the actual event the less they care. That’s just how it is. So if you tell a random 18 year old about the Alamo and They’re like “what? But I’m trying to get concerts tickets for Saturday”. Can you really blame them?

Those who don't study history are doomed to repeat it, or something like that.
I mean less than 25 years later, and muslims are in charge of some of our major cities.

I have literally stood on the top of one of those buildings only because my father took us there. That makes me a fricking gangster and I'm a big dog now

I don't remember Pearl Harbor.
Who would have thought people would be born after 9/11?

But surely you hate Japanese people, right?

People who choose to be ignorant or not care about history should be ridiculed and ashamed.

It became ancient history the second we didn’t kick every single one of those child rapist worshipers out of this country and barred entry of any of em here for whatever reason.

You use this description a lot.

I realized the other day that the WTC stood for 27 years, 1973-2001. They've been gone for 25 years. It's been nearly as long ago since it happened as they were even around.

Now do the Catholic Church.

Hits too close to home. The cognitive dissonance is too much.

No, Pearl Harbor was 80 years ago and the Japanese are no longer violent towards our entire civilization.

My oldest is 23 and my youngest is 18 so to them it is just history. They've seen the newscasts on YouTube and all, and my son in particular has read a lot about it. They understand the tragedy of it, but it is still pretty emotionless for them, unlike most of us who watched it all unfold in real time, remembering the feelings we had then in the days that followed. My son was watching some of the things about it this past weekend, and it still pained my heart watching it. I guess it was like me when I was growing up, pestering my grandparents to tell me about World War II or my old man about Vietnam. I did not understand that it was just not history to them, it was part of their life story.
