This is a place to share greentexts and witness the confounding life of Anon. If you're new to the Greentext community, think of it as a sort of zoo with Anon as the main attraction.

Be warned:

If you find yourself getting angry (or god forbid, agreeing) with something Anon has said, you might be doing it wrong.

Commuter trains aren’t high speed trains though.

True (though the AVE also stops at Atocha, as it did back in 2004).

They also tend to carry more passengers, which means the number of victims was significantly larger than if it had been an AVE.

And yet, your prediction of a nine-eleven-like security theater didn't come to pass. 🤷‍♂️

I never predicted 9/11 security theater. That was someone else. I was saying the opposite. It isn’t needed and won’t happen.
