I'd been wondering what the pictures I'd been seeing from that meme were about... (and didn't care enough to look it up myself)

I was going to say something serious about the other major event that happened on 11 September, but I don't wanna cause a shitstorm by potentially dragging (literally decades old) politics into this thread.

Edit: I'm dumb I didn't mean to say politics I meant 'shitstorm by making it seem like I'm going "WELL WHAT ABOUT THIS THING" lol'. I didn't go to sleep last night I'm tired.

Wikipedia says they started doing licensed games with Power Rangers on a Kickstarter thing. (Edit: This board game.) I'm honestly surprised Hasbro didn't have any interest in doing one in-house instead.

It would be soooo therapeutic if I could just take a sledgehammer to work one day and destroy every single computer and monitor and phone and printer there.

I'll settle for a hugging drink!

My best friend in the world sent me this. I don't know how in the world she found these.

My need to smash things has been negated.

OK so I was thinking about this and I think it's important for me to post this.

This is not meant to diminish what happened on 11 September 2001 or the remembrance of the victims of the terrorist attacks, but just a reminder of the other tragedy that happened on this day that should also be never forgotten:
On 11 September 1973, the democratically elected government of Salvador Allende was overthrown in a CIA-backed military coup d'état. This coup resulted in the end of civilian rule in Chile, a country that had been considered a bastion of democracy and political stability in a continent that was otherwise plagued by military juntas and caudillismo and had held democratic elections consistently since 1932, and the rise of Augusto Pinochet, who ruled Chile as a military dictator until 1990.

During Pinochet's seventeen years ruling Chile, he brutally persecuted members of the political left, socialists, and any political critics of his regime in general, with between 1200 and 3200 people being either executed or forcibly disappeared (the official Chilean government number is 3095 people were executed or 'disappeared' by Pinochet's regime, but there are many victims who may be unknown due to their bodies not being discovered), as many as 80,000 Chileans were imprisoned in detention centers, and tens of thousands of Chileans were tortured.

Toda la verdad.

Toda la justicia.
