would you stop 9/11 or would you stop george bush

There's a fairly strong case that stopping Bush might stop 9/11

[–] Alice@beehaw.org 2 points 3 weeks ago

Frankly I'm not sure either of those things would help, the US would always find another excuse for all this death and destruction. I'd have be careful that whatever measures I took to stop Bush would become the new excuse for some atrocity we were already going to commit.

But if my 8yo ass could manage it, I'd stop Bush. Then I'd play toys. It's 2001 and Ello Creation System is about to hit the market. I won't lose all the small pieces this time. I've learned from the previous timeline.
