    If anyone’s curious he’s talking in terms of 9/11s per capita. Americans will use anything but metric.

      Are those constant 9/11s though? Based on COVID policy I’m estimating that one human life in 2001 is worth several dozen in 2023

        Turns out the 2020 economy is worth more than a daily number of 9/11 deaths.

          Yeah, gotta account for inflation.

    Actually it’s roughly half of one 9/11, by the numbers.

    By the numbers in Palestine, though, these estimates get a bit closer

      They justified these headlines by comparing it as a proportion of population, because we all know that murder is graded based on general statistics instead of real lives. For example, The Vietnam War was America committing over 12,000 9/11’s…

        Also, inflation.

        Seems kind of low, honestly.

        I assume the Cambodian bombing campaign wasn’t included?

      And then Israel did like 6 morbillion 9/11s in response

      Inflation isn’t even halting before 9/11 anymore. THIS is Biden’s America!

      How many football fields is a 9/11?

    10•9/11 = 18.18

    15•9/11=12.27

    20•9/11=16.36

    9/11 is a strange unit, but I guess it’s not weird by American standards.

    if it was that bad then why does nobody call out netanyahu for funding hamas for years in order to destroy the pro peace left in gaza?
