iâd say anyone under 35 wasnât really aware for it.

If heâs from outside the us and like just turned 18 maybe. But like how does one even miss all of the memes about it? I guess even those have died down too.

35 might be an exaggeration, they would have been around 9 years old, old enough to remember something.

Yeah, this is definitely wrong. My younger brothers are significantly younger than 35 right now, and they still remember where they were when it happened.

Eh, 9/11 was ~25 years ago. And if we assume that a child under the age of, say, 5 wouldnât be interested in such things and wouldnât be exposed to it much, especially if not in the US ⌠then someone could feasibly be up to 30 years old right now and have been too young to notice or care when 9/11 happened.
And I donât know about your age standards ⌠but this guy looks like he could easily be under 30.

Iâm very squarely in that age bracket and it was hard to ignore 9/11 if you were at all exposed to any media. I canât imagine anyone 25-30 managing to entirely ignore 9/11 even without teachers talking about it. Maybe someone with the absolute peak of sheltering could ignore it. But outside of that I canât imagine anyone in the US 25-30 having no clue.
