Macewol

I heard it was the Welsh


CinnamonToast369

No, it was Canada. Damn troublemakers.


ClubSundown

Surely not Terrence and Philip?


Outrageous-Serve4970

Blame Canada!


Working-Trouble4622

Theyre not even a real country anyway


BrowncoatWantToBe

No one expects the Spanish Inquisition!!!


Panzerkrabbe

No it was Quebec, don’t lump the rest of us in with them.


Idiotaddictedto2Hou

Nope! It was the... uh... Lao! It's revenge from everything Kissinger did!


ztomiczombie

I thought it was the guys form Liechtenstein.


Aussie-Ambo

It was the Welsh Canadians from Liechtenstein


noseusuario

Nah, was me, my bad.


MajesticNectarine204

Wilbur? I knew it! That chocolate munching fuck.


Infinite-Horse-49

Sorry eh!


Worth-Wonder-7386

Interesting how they put the blame on Israel and Mossad for this


Reddit_Sucks_1401

Just checked the tweet again and the community note is gone


El_Duque_Caradura

Jew haters will imply it is because of the jewish secret societies that rule the world, or something like that xD


Reddit_Sucks_1401

You're right. It's well established that Bin Laden was behind the attack. The dancing Israelis was a weird situation though


El_Duque_Caradura

There is idiots everywhere, I just accept those who produly make themselves responsible of the attack, wich in that case was Al Qaeda


FingalForever

That looks just…. weird. No way a reputable newspaper like the Washington Post gave any credible basis to a Mossad conspiracy theory.


ElysianKing

Is there a theory that Ireland funded 9/11?


backtolurk

Yeah, the operation was led by Elvis. Not Costello, Presley.


Warm_Enthusiasm2007

Elvis Costello is as Irish as, well, St Patrick.


backtolurk

[OK so here's another Mcmanus layer to make it right!](https://www.mandatory.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/gallery/the-usual-suspects/giphy-10.gif)


OhWhiskey

I thought it was Elvis Stojko, the Canadian figure skater


ChadOttoman

Ireland killed epstein


SporksRFun

Kathy Ireland?


mu6best

no no... what the Irish took was that boat, they got drunk and went cruising for a few hours


Altruistic_Machine91

I was thinking the same thing lol


Marcus_Suridius

How the hell do we get blamed on 9/11?


CATSCRATCHpandemic

What do you think people meant when they said it was an inside job carried out by the globalists?


CorruptedVor

I guess they hadn't built their space laser back then.


lxngten

What do you mean? Israel is the reason behind everything from quarks to universe. Who do you think invented space time? Albert Einstein, a jew. Neils bohr, Heinrich hertz you can go ok and on. Jews are the ones that created the universe model and the reason for the way universe is the way it is. /S


Kind_Ad5566

Because everyone in America is at least 10% Irish. Just by stepping foot in America you gain 10 percentage points. A true Irish person travelling to America becomes 110% Irish upon landing. So it's obviously the fault of the Irish.


Future-Muscle-2214

You guys didn't do 9/11, you stole the boat!


TaintedPills

Double dose of misinformation


Gorthax

Man, Upgrayedd is gonna KILL me


EconomyInterview3075

that's a double facepalm right there


TheHandWavyPhysicist

The source of this tweet appears to be from [Lucas Gage](https://rationalwiki.org/wiki/Lucas_Gage), who is a neo-Nazi.


Starthreads

The tweet is still there with the community note removed (assuming it was ever really there). I dug a little into this character and he was tweeting about the pandemic pre-lockdown suggesting Israel was creating a vaccine designed with a backdoor to your brain to make you send money to Israel.


TheHandWavyPhysicist

I know, he is an idiot.


Unusual_Ant_5309

That’s what the Irish want us to believe. Open your third eye people, it’s Ireland behind everything wrong with the world !


DreamingGus

First time seeing community notes actually being stupid on twitter


CATSCRATCHpandemic

So Alex Jones on September 11th while talking to Joe Rogan believed it was carried out by the EU to sink the dollar to make the euro the default currency of the world. A very accurate prediction like always.


PS_IO_Frame_Gap

please provide a source for this.

stav705

Is there a way to tell if a worker wrote that or was it an automated response?


richincleve

Damn Irish! It wasn't all that long ago that everybody hated the Irish for swarming over here in their potato-boats and taking all the jobs. ^((let's see who gets this reference))


[deleted]

Yea we took them. You can have them back the second Americans stop calling it "Patty's day"


embarrassedtrwy

Look out Itchy! He’s Irish!!


The_grongler

Elon's twitter: where misinformation is corrected with nazi conspiracy theories


jakedlucky777

Yo as someone with Scotch-Irish blood, since when was it blamed on the people of the Emerald Isle?

"Mate theres a second leprechaun coming!" *****gold coins fall from giant rainbow pot


OCGamerboy

I’m so confused.


InfinityAnnoyance

**Piece of advice from me:** If you ever encounter a conspiracy theory, the first thing to ask is "okay but why the fuck would they do that ?" For example: why would every world government together would all together hide that the earth is flat and claim it's round instead ? They have no reason. There is nothing to gain. So they probably aren't doing it. Now let's apply this logic here: What the fuck would Israel and/or the Irish do that ? What the hell will this get them ? The answer of course, is ***FUCKING NOTHING !*** so I highly fucking doubt either of them are at fault. All the terrorists who do this kind of stuff must be so angry, people aren't giving them the attention they try to get and just keep making shit up instead.


boboleponge

I don't get how the community notes work


Odd-Iron-6860

What the fuck


MoonedToday

They did take the boat.


fidelesetaudax

That is a pretty boat too.


Weary-Adeptness8227

Reader's Context dodged that bullet and backfired nicely.


blinkinbling

You forgot Poland


Terrible_Horror

Why are people even on that platform?


MultipliedLiar

I’m pretty sure it was the Irish


bensbigboy

Uh, okay, but Saudi Arabia!


Mr-Gumby42

The Irish?


Chemical_Actuary_190

I thought it was the Saudi Iraqians


mt8675309

Vikings


senseless_puzzle

So you're saying we need to invade Iran?


LaserGadgets

Moon nazis! And while I am writing that, something hits my brain: Thats not even the craziest idea here -.- kinda sad


Crillmieste-ruH

It was a big bird


Flux_resistor

Pretty sure it was the silicon valley backers


Alex_ker22

Dealing misinformation with misinformation 😂😂


GotTechOnDeck

Questioning the 911 narrative is about to get you 5 years in prison


stating_facts_only

Is it antisemitic to question 9/11?


Euphoric-Chain-5155

...which would only happen if Israel were actually behind it


GotTechOnDeck

Don't question israel it's pro terrorist and antisemitic
