Been thinking about making this since Wednesday. Finally got around to it. Oh, the parallels!
Film still from 1997 film Titanic. Image shows Victor Garber, who portrayed Thomas Andrews, the British shipbuilder and naval architect in charge of building plans for the doomed ocean liner, standing near an marble fireplace after having stopped a clock at the time the ship ceased movement after hitting an iceberg, with white meme text overlaid on the lower quarter of the image that reads: "I'm sorry that I didn't build you a stronger country, young citizens," replacing the original dialogue from the film: "I'm sorry that I didn't build you a stronger ship, young Rose."
