You know exactly what they mean dude. Stop pretending there is some grammatical wiggle room in praising bin Laden so that you don't have to face the results of progressivism on humanity.

Is tik tok really progressivism though? Also, I'm not convinced that a lot of "praising bin laden" tik toks aren't AI generated.

What stood out to me there is that each person posting a video clip appears to fancy them self as some kind of celebrity whose opinion is worthy of having widespread influence.

Some of them clearly went to some trouble in editing the clip before posting it.

A bunch of loser narcissists.

You thinks that's bad, I just saw people posting takes of them trying a new McDonald's dipping sauce like it was some kind of revelation that we all needed to see.

The sadder thing is that people actually watch this stuff. I can't blame them for their hustle, when there are so many people who want this.

They apply the same level of intellectual thoroughness to both mambo sauce reactions and pre-9/11 US foreign policy.

hundreds of pretty women don't just read an article on the guardian and decide that bin laden was right all along and they need to make a video about it. Someone gave them each a bit of money to do that, which is very funny and strange and embarrassing

I wish everyone could go viral at least once, just so people know how completely empty it is.

I was particularly attracted to the woman with the buzz cut and the other woman with the green t-shirt and bandana. Shawties!

It seems like virality, follower counts, etc., are a potent new form of currency and so you would kinda expect that given the current dialogue around Palestine.

Words matter. If they didn't, the poster wouldn't have bothered claiming that people of all ages were posting.

None of those people were even born when 9/11 happened. They're stupid kids.
Everything's perfectly all right now. We're fine. We're all fine here, now, thank you. How are you?

Yes, words do matter.

It’s like when I do a survey or complete a form and the question about sex/gender doesn’t ask what sex/gender I am, but rather it asks which I identify as.

That’s some bullshit twisting of language. I don’t identify. I am.

Bin Laden was an awful human being. Scum. Embarassing that some say otherwise.

Your identity and physical self match.

I glad that worked out for you. Not everyone is so privileged.

That was obviously not the entirety of the videos
