    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.

    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…

    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.

      Do you seriously think that what’s going on in Palestine is equivalent to the literal fucking holocaust?

      The one where the entire Jewish population of a major city was massacred in a single day, with industrialized extermination camps, that killed ~2/3rds of all European Jews?
