The ways that “patriots” tried to honor/respect 9/11 came off as way more insulting to me than the actual earnest mockeries. Like Rudy Ghouliani having $9.11 proportioned donations for his presidential campaign, the Jokerfying gift shop and theme restaurant built at Ground Zero, and even calling it “patriot day” as if there was anything positive to glean over the Casus Belli from the day that bled the world for decades to come afterward.
