Hunh, that sounds interesting....I was thirty in 2001 (CRUMBLES INTO A HEAP OF DUST) and the difference in civil life before and after is still pretty stark to me. I'd be interested to see what he highlights. -- For one thing, while everyone is screaming at Joe Biden about Afghanistan (in some ways deservedly) and some news outlets have emphasized Trump was inviting the Taliban to Camp David (Why. What. Why) I remember fucking Operation Enduring Freedom and Rumsfeld cosplaying Robert McNamara and how civil dissent was like crushed overnight. It felt like the politicians were dragging the world down the wrong timeline and there was no way to fix it.
