It was the 15th anniversary of one of the worst tragedies in American history, yet some folks just need to make it all about themselves. Here are a few 9/11 hot takes that will make you lose faith in humanity.
How can we remember 9/11 when slavery happened?
(Hint: you can remember both)
<blockquote class="twitter-tweet" data-lang="en"><p lang="en" dir="ltr">White people cant ever let go of 9/11, a single day in our history, but want you to get over 300 years of racial oppression lol</p>— elexus jionde (@Lexual__) <a href="https://twitter.com/Lexual__/status/774960861224046592">September 11, 2016</a></blockquote>

I'm sorry but they always want us to never forget 9/11 but they always want us to forget slavery and where African Americans come from.

9/11 mourning is a charade because terror attacks happen elsewhere.
