Hope that place was empty

I really hope so, but I feel that is unlikely. If this situation escalated quickly I don't want to imagine how many people were in there.

Seems like there was some warning tape around before it happened. Hopefully it had been evacuated.

Can't wait for the basement idiots to start saying that it's fake because "jet fuel can't melt steel beams"

But its an earthquake? I think everyone knows earthquakes are known to collapse buildings...

You need to update your conspiracy theories. The more recent ones would be like:

"That building was CGI and the people in the video were actors. The earthquake didn't happen."

Yes, I guess I haven't kept up with the newest trends, I'm an old man after all.

The fact the building collapses almost in exactly the same fashion as the WTC towers is what brought up the memories of those who, at the time, were up in arms on how it could not have happened

I thought it was a good joke. But hey, this is Reddit.

But where's the joke? Its just a shitty reference to an already terrible atrocity.

Just giving my opinion man, take your outrage elsewhere. Maybe make a post about how not funny his comment was, and get some folks together who can be mad with you.

I like jokes, just curious where it was

After 9 11 there were, and probably still are, a number of people who claimed the terrorist attacks were part of a conspiracy and not the result of airplanes being flown into the buildings. One of the most quoted “reasons” was that the fire from jet fuel couldn’t cause the towers to collapse. “Jet fuel can’t melt steel” became their slogan and later a meme.

In this video the building collapses in a very similar way to the World Trade Center towers did. To any normal person that makes sense, structurally that’s what happens when it is weakened. But to a conspiracy theorist it becomes something to disprove because there must be other dark forces at play.

My joke was based on those ideas: building collapses, everyone says it’s a an earthquake, can’t be true, must find crazy reason, spread it on the internet together with flat earth non sense or some other bs

No, I got it. Just registered like a 4/10 on the "ha" scale. Explaining a 4 makes it like a 2.
