Metal is such a huge part of my life and it's all thanks to Brutal Legend. I cried when Ozzy, the Guardian of Metal, died. Now more tears flow for Tim. Thank you Tim for your part in introducing me to the incredible world of metal music. My life wouldn't be the same without you.

Yeah I've been gone from Bluesky I needed to unplug for a bit over the holiday season I think I need to shift my approach to social media - I'll stay informed obviously but like the hyperfocus was too much for me. So expect more funposting because if all you do is fight, you forget why you fight.

But hey, some of us held on, and we'll weather the storm of endless hatred that terrible day created, and as long as we keep fighting for it, we'll see that bright future before we're through.

A couple decades of far right propaganda later, and my dad wouldn't watch anything with a black lead character in it. 9/11 meant that the American military conducted several illegal offensive wars that ended in the bloodshed of millions. It also corrupted the souls of its citizens.

Apt-Get @aptget.bsky.social · 11/09/2025

America used to be a place where Sesame Street would have black kids in the cast, and it wasn't seen as "woke" or controversial in the slightest, because for the most part Americans were more tolerant than not. It...didn't age well, but my family loved watching The Cosby Show.

Apt-Get @aptget.bsky.social · 11/09/2025

However, I do think that if the American hadn't been lurched awake, like they were, and told to hate outsiders without question, like they were, we definitely would all be in a much better place now. Americans would have likely continued to want to make the world a more open and accepting place.

Apt-Get @aptget.bsky.social · 11/09/2025

A lot of people nowadays in the Y2K/Frutiger aesthetic fandom always talk about "the future we were promised", but the truth is sadly that even if 9/11 had never happened, we weren't going to Global Village Coffeehouse aesthetic our way into a perfect world.

120

Apt-Get @aptget.bsky.social · 11/09/2025

It was a cultural zeitgeist of the people of an empire forced to confront the consequences of its influence on the world suddenly being jolted awake, but with no real understanding of what had lead to that moment. In their minds, everything was perfect, until it wasn't. It was indeed a mere facade.

121

Apt-Get @aptget.bsky.social · 11/09/2025

There's a million different little examples, but the entire American paradigm and media landscape shifted from "we're entering the future, and it is going to be paradise" to "the world is an ugly place, and we have to beat the hell out of it". In hindsight, it was all just lashing out, vindictive.

120

Apt-Get @aptget.bsky.social · 11/09/2025

Everything in media stopped being soft and shimmering, chrome and bubbly. Everything became gritty, sepia-toned, grungy. Action heroes weren't dashing and debonair, they became brutal and visceral and patriotic. They even made Spidey do a slow motion run in front of a massive American flag.

120

Apt-Get @aptget.bsky.social · 11/09/2025

I mean, there was definitely a zeitgeist change - there were additional factors, but 9/11 really solidified the change. just look at stuff like Shakespears Sister's Stay or Bomfunk MC's Freestyler, then compare that with the pro-military patriotismfest of music videos after 9/11.

130

Apt-Get @aptget.bsky.social · 11/09/2025

The optimism for the future, that soft, shimmering chrome and faux fur future evaporated, and the world became obsessed with war. People who had always spoken about freedom now made allegiance mandatory, and a population embracing the global community became fearful of everything different from them

020

Apt-Get @aptget.bsky.social · 11/09/2025

I was 8, and I had up until that point never seen anything so violent. I watched as my family, seized by fear, moved out to the middle of nowhere and began embracing hardcore fundamentalist christianity and republican ideology. I watched the glimmering world focus on rubble, and the future fade away

Apt-Get @aptget.bsky.social · 11/09/2025

There is tragedy in his death - he spent his life making the world a worse off place than when he entered it. That's the sadness. But he's gone now, and that's the relief you're seeing now. If you can't understand that, then ask yourself why not.

Apt-Get @aptget.bsky.social · 11/09/2025

The truth is we celebrate the end of the monster Charlie Kirk became. but we do mourn his death - or rather, the death of what he might have been had he not been someone who dedicated his entire life, right up to the moment of his death, to promoting a hate-filled, cruel and unfeeling world.

100

Apt-Get @aptget.bsky.social · 11/09/2025

There'd be no reason to celebrate their deaths when they do pass away, because they wouldn't actively be trying to make the world a cruel and terrible place. What you're seeing isn't bloodlust, it's bittersweet relief.

100

Apt-Get @aptget.bsky.social · 11/09/2025

We celebrate his end, not because we want every right winger to die, not because we love terrorism or violence, but because we want the people shaping society into a hellscape to stop. Imagine a world where Dennis Prager was a stand up comedian, or Nick Fuentes lived his catboy truth.

100

Apt-Get @aptget.bsky.social · 11/09/2025

So when the left celebrates the death of someone like Charlie Kirk, it is not because we love death, but because someone who did is not able to spread it further. Pundits make their living off of shaping society, of being leaders in thought and opinion, and people like Kirk use that power for evil.

Apt-Get @aptget.bsky.social · 11/09/2025

It's reached the point where it's become difficult to still see the humanity in these people, especially those whose life work is the spread of these politics of cruelty, death and widespread destruction and misery.

100

Apt-Get @aptget.bsky.social · 11/09/2025

It has been a deluge, an endless torrent of hatred and vitriol and vile, repugnant filth watching the right wing cheer on the deaths of children, of the homeless, of queer people and of minorities. Watching them constantly punch down on people without any power again and again and again and again.

100

Apt-Get @aptget.bsky.social · 11/09/2025

Whether this was just to own the libs or not, we have witnessed the right wing devolve into deeper and deeper abysses of hatred and cruelty, shedding their humanity as they do everything in their power to deny people the right to live good lives and promoting their demise and misery.

100

Apt-Get @aptget.bsky.social · 11/09/2025

Conservatives constantly portray themselves as bullies, assholes, jerks who laugh at the deaths of minorities and poor people, coming up with justifications as to why people with no power should die and why their deaths should be celebrated.

100

Apt-Get @aptget.bsky.social · 11/09/2025

Instead of being like "that's a noble idea" or "that would make the world a better place", even if only agreeing in theory, conservatives have constantly argued against the "bleeding heart liberals" and have constantly promoted the politics of cruelty, of the bully, of sociopathy.

100

Apt-Get @aptget.bsky.social · 11/09/2025

Leftists, when it comes down to it, only want things like everyone to have housing, food in the fridge, the ability to see a doctor without going bankrupt and the right for everyone to live in peace. This is the core of what people on the left believe. And for some reason, this angers conservatives

I mean, we wouldn't be if the right wing wasn't wanting to do violent ethnic cleansings of everyone who wasn't white and straight. What you're seeing is a reaction to the death of someone who spent his entire life advocating for violence and death. It's like celebrating the death of Hitler.

You can vote, protest and sign petitions all you want, but a government that refuses to do anything except install fascism and oppress everyone is gonna need a stronger approach. My great-grandfather back in the 40s had a pretty good idea of what to do to totalitarian regimes.
