I don't get it. What is this website? All I gather is a motto that the site has intentions to gather people as Americans the same way they were on 9/12/01. If I recall that was utterly horrified, scared, and united in the fear of a still unknown cause to a series of plane crashes the day before. So we're trying to go back to that again? What's funny is that I believe the terrorists have the same dream for Americans, get them back to 9/12/01.

Can anyone address this at all? I know it's far too on-topic to catch much notice, but still, I'd like to know why it's a good idea to promote the togetherness wrapped around our commons fears like we were on 9/12/01. I just don't get why that is a day we'd like to recapture and bottle.

 

I think it's funny that in all places, this thread was what made me think of Final Fantasy 7. Anyone who's played the full game and remembers the plot surrounding Shinra would get it. Don't want to ruin it for anyone else (even though it's been out for over a decade).

 

I haven't played the game in 10 years. Can you explain it and just black it out for spoilers? I'd greatly appreciate knowing the connection.

 

At some point in the game, probably Disc 2, the new president of Shinra declares that he will be a greater leader than his father ever was because he will be able to unify the citizens and lead through fear. I'm sure there are a bunch of other mediums with which I could compare to this situation, but I thought this one was the most hilarious.

I'm not sure I fully understand the project, since the website is unorganized and crappy and I just don't feel like watching any boring videos. But from what you've described, it sounds like an awful thing.
