    The memification of 9/11 in the public conscience is the same thing that happened to Charlie Kirk. Predictable, spectacular blowback. The right cynically tries to wring every last bit of political value out of it – especially to quash opposition. This is done so transparently as to invite ridicule, and suddenly you have jokes about an ostensibly serious topic everywhere.
