If the majority of people would react a certain way, that’s the social norm. Your personal reaction to seeing Bush’s face on 9/11, after 22 years, is just not the norm, nor anyone else’s responsibility. This is not a graphic image, and it was not addressed to you specifically.
Norms aren’t right/wrong. You are on lemmy viewing this image, that’s your population. And that’s what you should be considering when offering your perspective.

Tastelessness is wrong. Trust me.
Taste is subjective, and here you won’t find the reaction you’re hoping for.
Taste is subjective
And understanding of what is tasteless is the glue that binds society.
Example — you will not find meme formats related to:
MASS MURDER (save the tasteless piece of shit in question) RAPE SUICIDE etc
