To be fair this is much more than just a church, it is a national icon and cultural heritage. Imagine the ungodly things americans would reply in a tweet saying this about the burning statue of liberty
Terrible things can be beautiful in their own way. It doesn’t necessarily mean it’s something they are glad happened (though that “pleasing” admittedly doesn’t look great). Have you never found the visual of something horrible captivating? Where you just can’t look away?
Why go with a fictional event when 9/11 is right there? Of which I’m sure much more insensitive things the have been said about as well.
I certainly understand the sentiment, but I am also sensible enough to not proclaim that to the whole world in such an emotional situation. Naturally affected people are gonna be pissed and will interpret the statement in the worst possible way.
For the fictional event, I actually hadn’t considered that because it would mean a center of commerce is the american equivalent of a national icon.
Yep, thats americans for you. The white house has been burned down before, and id pay to watch someone fly a plane into the statue of liberty. I bet it’d fuck the plane up way worse than the statue, but the statue isnt going to be undamaged. The spectacle would be cool, and the only people here that would be really pissed are the super patriotic ones, and those financially invested in the statue. For the first group, to be patriotic currently means you are completely brain dead, as there is nothing in americas past or present to be proud of. As for the second group, unless they are working a tourist stall, then that would really only effect the bigwigs, and everyone else would rejoice at their bottom line being effected.
Now if you were to blow up a school or the wtc, that would actually effect people more than it would effect the rich, and therefore most americans would be rightfully pretty pissed.
Who the fuck cares? We hold on to too much old shit as it is and or continues to mutate into a stagnation of meaningful progress. It’s a building. Fuck that building.

Twice as old as USA.
“No way copper burns like that”
Jet fuel doesn’t burn hot enough!!!
/S
Okay the other one then, the oval office building.
I’d be more ok with it if the current occupants were still inside when it did burn.
What is it with Americans and office buildings in unusual shapes anyway?
I see u 🐸
if it happened today we’d probably celebrate lmao
I do see your point though

The “thousands of lives lost” part tends to hike up the level of tragedy over the “center of commerce” aspect for most people…
Don’t worry Merica got even for it…
At least we all know that Saudi Arabia was thoroughly punished for it!
All the dead Iraqis and Afghans, we are even now 🤡
Lost Our hegemony over it too!
Bin Laden tatally didn’t get what he wanted out of it
