Bhavana
These are two decks I have been using a lot recently, the Intuitive and the Silicon Dawn, and it has occurred to me that with both decks, published after 2001, the tower card is definitely reminiscent of the WTC on 9/11. You can see a physical resemblance, you can see the papers floating in the air, and on the Silicon Dawn card, there are even 2 towers. Not a surprise that artists are culturally influenced, but it is kind of eerie to see. It also sort of changes my view of this card, which I have tried in the past to see in a positive light...but if compared to 9/11, that is extremely hard to do. I don't think anything positive came out of that day. Even the resurgence of patriotism that we saw afterwards was very short lived.
I don't have a lot of decks compared to most of you, but was wondering if anyone else has any decks published since 2001 that show a tower card that was obviously influenced by 9/11? The tower in Haindl deck also has a similar look - but that one was published in 1990.
