Hey Pandas, What’s A Historical Event That Still Feels Unreal No Matter How Much You Read About It? (Closed)

Including BP for censoring the word H.O.L.O.C.A.U.S.T... FFS stop censoring the word.

Well, we have netanyahu starving Gazans and trump cutting benefits and electricity in the US while Miller is working to set up gulags and illegally deporting people, so we are well on our way to repeating history.

Yep. We're watching history repeat itself in real time. It's pretty scary.

Our felon in chief is on a roll every day.

in 2020 Biden stole the election overnight. for 4 years the media covered up the fact that he was senile. it was only when he embarrassed himself in the debate that the dems forced him out of the race

The last 100 years has been monumental in just about every conceivable way. Unfortunately, people are still being people and killing each other if astronomical numbers.

Yes. Thanks for mentioning this 🥺

I see our America the Beautiful becoming the America the Grotesque.

How about the “peaceful” George Floyd protests, that people used as an excuse to burn and loot their own neighborhoods. WAY more destruction.

WalkFree.org top 10 list of countries where slavery still exist today; North Korea, Eritrea, Mauritania, Saudi Arabia, Turkey, Tajikistan, United Arab Emirates, Russia, Afghanistan, Kuwait.

I was home sick that day and watched it unfold. For me, it was a turning point: we are in trouble. Five years later, we are in worse trouble. Hunker down.

I'm not sure if that is the same as the destruction of Black Wall Street, but if people do not know, it was a thriving Black town and and law enforcement went in and destroyed it. Burned and pillaged. https://www.neh.gov/article/1921-tulsa-m******e

Can't edit original post. End of comment is supposed to read "... simply aren't there any more."

I'm generally not a conspiracy theorist, quite the opposite, but something always felt off about the official explanation of 9/11, how a small group of terrorists pulled of a scheme of this scale and precission on their own. And then there's building 7. And how the government used it to justify massive surveillance and war. On the other hand, the government aiding the terrorists is also quite hard to believe.

Look around. We're not far from it now.

Sadly, that made them a target for Vlad the Bomber.

My friend watched the 2nd plane from Brooklyn. I can't imagine seeing it live. I'm going to huddle on the next anniversary. I hope you can find peace at some point.

We may never know the true consequences of this tragedy! The RBMK reactor was never pretested it was the prototype!

I just keep thinking about how this was easily preventable. Low information voters and propagating lies is wretched. Last night I was shopping online for eggs and didn’t see any that could make me believe that Dumpty Trumpty was doing anything to improve our lives or that Biden, et al made it worse and I was shopping from Whole Foods! (Note to people who are lucky enough to not live in the US- Whole Foods has been named Whole Paycheck because it’s thought of as expensive. Since I don’t buy run-of-the-mill grocery products I order from Whole Foods and it isn’t more expensive because I usually don’t buy their lovely, expensive prepared food.)

The planned conventional invasion would have killed many more Japanese civilians, not to mention Allied deaths. Look up the estimates, including the Japanese Army's plan to order all civilians into battle with weapons as limited as pointed sticks. That's evil.

Ask the Chinese and Koreans about this.

It was the first that is significant. And also the realization of the awesome total destruction the world had never seen before. The though to this day that chills you to the bone.

Do you mean man on the moon? I'm not sure we have had a man in the moon (yet).

And the people suffer.

Not a historical event.

Yeah - all in one weekend.

Who can save us now?
