Some of the backlash cited in the article seems out of touch, this in particular:
I must have missed the part where these memes are making jokes about the bombings of Hiroshima and Nagasaki.
Simple: It doesn't.
It's just a typical case of taking a thing and getting riled up about it, without making a simple Google search, what the thing you don't like is even about.
Seeing they made 9/11 memes to retaliate against Americans already, why not keep barbenheimer? Tea is already spilled on both ends, everybody is unhappy, that's a compromise for ya
