1. ehh, not really.

A plane + tall buildings does not equal 9/11.

2. Not everyone sees it that way

Here's another view -

"I examined the can for several minutes while my food grew cold, wondering if my eyes were deceiving me. But there was no getting around it. To either side of the Pepsi logo, there was an image of a jet airliner over tall buildings. Looking at the image, I couldn't help but think it alluded to 9/11.

Three other soldiers were sitting with me at my table. One of the other soldiers asked what I was looking at so hard. Instead of answering, I handed him the can and said, "Look at the artwork on this can. Do you see what I see?"

He looked. His eyes grew wide. He turned the can from side to side. The other soldiers at the table looked, too. None of us said anything. The phrase "9/11" never passed from our lips. We could LOOK at each other and understand we all saw the same thing, a "sneaky allusion to 9/11."

5. What's it called when people see things they want to see?

Who know like in "Jesus toast?" I can't think of the term.

7. Pareidolia n/t

8. Thank you! I couldn't remember and was too lazy to Google.

I know one of you smarties would know.

I think that is likely what we have going on in the Pepsi can situation.

18. This isn't quite pareidolia, but it's in the same venue.

There is clearly a plane and tall buildings on the can - that's not being conjured by the brain as in pareidolia - but a plane and tall buildings simply are not sufficient ingredients for 9/11.

I think it's more like how there's 1 style of mustache that will forever remind people of Hitler.

4. That's sort o' clever, in that it can be seen as re-enforcing a particular belief. (nt) (nr)

6. What "belief" is it reinforcing?

[T S Justly]

9. That two commercial airliners took down three NYC skyscrapers. (nt)

10. In what way does it reinforce that belief?

I really don't understand your conclusion. For that to even happen, one would have to belief the can is displaying the 9-11 attack. Are you claiming this is some type of psy-ops? If so, what would be the purpose?

[T S Justly]

11. In ways too subtle for some to comprehend. But you ask a good question ...

" ... what would be the purpose?" Yes, good question. And, one without an answer, yet.

[Behind the Aegis]

12. So you believe this is some type of psy-ops? If so, by whom?

[T S Justly]

13. PepsiCo. (nt)

[Behind the Aegis]

14. I have to ask....why would they even do something like this?

What rationale would they have? Is it simply because they are a large corporation?

[T S Justly]

15. Your guess is as good as mine. But it is Pepsi's can, their graphic, and their message. (nt)

[Behind the Aegis]

16. That's a legitimate response. Thanks for taking the time to respond. n/t

[T S Justly]

17. You're welcome. And, I thank-you in return. (nt)

Pepsi to scrap Mideast can some say evokes 9/11, Jerusalem Post, 12/20

The Pepsico corporation has nixed a special Diet Pepsi can design after customers complained that it evoked the September 11th attacks on the World Trade Center, leading to calls to boycott the company.

In an email sent to The Jerusalem Post on Tuesday, a company spokesperson said that the design was meant to evoke the Dubai skyline, and that any offense caused was accidental.
