9/11 didn't have big impacts on the world.
Covid is fucking economy badly worldwide and is leading to a huge number of deaths. The worst part is, we still don't even understand covid after half a year. There are no proper confirmations when it comes to lasting damage, we don't know if we can become immune or vaccinate against it, we don't know what kind of surprises a second wave of infections will have and without vaccines we will never have a way of ending the outbreak because it's infective invisibly for up to 4 weeks. --- Currently playing: Phoenix Wright Spirit of Justice ...

I know most Americans were shocked by 9/11. But it was a tiny blowback compared to what U.S. foreign policy does to the rest of the world.

If you actually think that you should read William Blum's book Killing Hope - US Military and CIA Interventions Since WW2. Are you saying you believe 9/11 positively affected US foreign and domestic policy? I didnt say it was good before.

Then were in agreement, and I didnt mean the event itself was potentially worse than corona, but the actions taken home and abroad by the U.S. government as a result of 9/11 could be argued to be worse than COVID-19 has been so far (Patriot Act, increased imperialism, etc.). Some estimates place the Iraqi death count from the war at up to 1,000,000. --- No Venezuelan fishermen ever called me a Bernie Bro. ... Copied to Clipboard!

As someone who was too young to really understand 9/11 when it happened, it seemed like 9/11 was more terrifying. People, specifically Americans, had no idea if, when, and where other attacks would occur. I cant imagine the fear that people would have lived with.
In contrast, corona is less outright terrifying and more of a slow burn. After the initial shock caused by the shutdown, people have settled into a new normal. Its hard to call looking over your shoulder for new terrorist attacks a new normal. Point being that its silly to compare them. Theyre different beasts altogether. --- Though the fear of death is a common one, the fear of life is a more rational one. ... Copied to Clipboard!

Plus made airlines suck even more and had some notable economic effects. Insurance companies, airlines, the stock market, tourism etc. took a huge battering after 9/11. --- My Mario Maker 2 Maker ID is J2K-RFD-K4G Even In sigs FOE! http://i2.kym-cdn.com/photos/images/newsfeed/000/665/328/d75.gif ...

Covid 19 is such a low-key assassin because of it's slow burn. It's evident in this topic / in this world how people underestimate it and now look what's happening. Just a few months in we're over 300k deaths and hundreds of thousands currently sick and may have permenant damage to people's health and the economies of the world.
9/11 didnt directly kill a million. Bush just used it as an excuse to go to Iraq. We all know the US just wanted the oil. ... Copied to Clipboard!
