Re: 9/11 culture change?

I'm honestly surprised that someone who wasn't old enough to actually remember clearly

Are you kidding? "Rah Rah This Is Our Pearl Harbor" makes people feel good. That and they were being told that relentlessly.

I'm not going to claim 9/11 didn't have a big impact, simply that culture wasn't really different before.

I guess it never occurred to me to think of it as "my Pearl Harbor". Goodness sake, it's like the terrorist attack version of Oppression Olympics. "Your generation had your horrible tragedy that gave you victim status, now we have one too!" It's kinda gross actually, now that I think of it that way.

That's really not it, though. Regardless of how young the anon you mentioned was, 9/11 was a huge thing that directly led to a war and economic consequences, so I don't understand why it's so surprising that people see it as something that impacted them, and society as a whole.

It's not like you can expect everyone to be able to express themselves eloquently or completely factual, but attitudes did change. And to be fair Pearl Harbor was also a huge event, so obviously those who lived through it are going to be influenced by it.
