I grew up in America and have lived in Canada for seven years now. I’ve come to recognize that Canadians (except for the staunch conservatives who aren’t pleased with anything) are proud and loyal to Canada because it’s a beautiful country that has (for the most part) taken pretty good care of its people. Americans are proud and loyal mostly because they were brainwashed throughout their lives by pledges, patriotic songs, and tall tales about the founding fathers. I personally found little to be proud of in my thirty years as an American.
Also, one time a pair of planes took down some skyscrapers.
Alan Jackson wrote a song about it, and America invaded an unrelated country. That made people really proud too.
Of all the 9/11 songs, I feel like Alan Jackson’s was alright. It was contemplative and didn’t call for violence. Yeah, it had a religous turn to it, but it was talking about love being more important than politics and war.
Toby Keith, on the other hand, wrote songs about bombing Muslims and other military-porn shit. Fuck that guy.
I’m just so proud of generations that weren’t around during 9/11, for making memes about it, and mocking the “NEVA FORGET!!111” Propaganda in the process

George W. Bush absolutely did 9/11 on purpose.
