But the ones in here comparing it to Hiroshima, Nagasaki and the Holocaust need to get some perspective. It was a pivotal moment and a serious reality check for the Americans, but it was not the Holocaust.
I’d argue we broke from reality after 9/11. Started 2 futile wars, passed the Patriot act, militarized the police, the rise of 24/7 “News” channels and Fox in particular.
Absolutely. The hot war was raging on the other side of the world, while the psychological war was being fought against their own people (who in the end lost)
