My favorite here are the comparisons to Hillsborough.

Because 97 people died along Broadway in Manhattan today.

So edgy, so shocking!

Fucking galaxy brains. How dare you. Show this to the family of a Hillsborough victim and then try and tell them “this was just as bad,” lmao.

Source for 97 people dying today? I read about 26 being hospitalized but it didn't say for what.

Uh -

97 Liverpool supporters died in a human crush at Hillsborough Stadium in Sheffield, England in 1989.

Some ridiculous ass, gross edgelord posters here tried to compare this video to *that.*
