"A large part of the architecture created after September 11 was not dismantled, it was normalized." The "thirst for revenge" was never overcome

The article analyzes how a large part of the security measures and practices implemented after the September 11, 2001 attacks in the United States were not reversed, but rather normalized by society. The text argues that this "normalization" represented the end of religious tolerance and respect for difference, giving way to massive surveillance and war practices that became "routine instruments of state policy." The result includes the increase in hate crimes against Muslims and people perceived as such, the emergence of the self-proclaimed Islamic State, and the resurgence of populism and nationalism on a global scale.
