Gentlemen? We war like winners
Bunch of Lunatics that had one fucking genius by the name of John Browning.
Explanation: After some three years of European powers brutally bludgeoning, bayoneting, machine-gunning, and using chemical weapons on each other in WW1, the Americans entered the war. We, of course, immediately indulged in the same bludgeoning, bayoneting, machine-gunning, and chemical weapons as every else did, but we also brought a large quantity of pump-action shotguns to the fight, with brutal effect in the tight confines of the trenches.
The German Empire lodged a formal complaint that the use of shotguns was against the laws of war due to the inhumane nature of the weapon. "Lol", said everyone else, "lmao"
Why did I feel a need to have a look at the comments though? ๐ญ
I think part of it is the deceptive simplification of political alignment into a single axis with two poles you assign whatever significance you want to.
Gov't control can be used to regulate companies for killing us for slightly larger profit margins, but also to surveil and eliminate dissidents. It's just not adequate to judge a political stance by.
Wow
Where did these people go to high school? Because I went to high school in Florida and even I'm not this ignorant. Wow.
Wow, they're gonna have a melt down when they hear about the people's democratic republic or Korea.
Any comment section without the concept of a down vote is the perfect situation for amplifying misinformation.
By no means are downvotes a perfect panacea, but they help a lot.
Those sure are words. Seemingly randomly ordered.
Ah yes, 1917's Germany, obviously led by radical leftist Nazi emperor Wilhelm II
Checkmate, libtard.
Probably a troll though with the Tom Pfp
Ah, Youtube comment section lunatics. They've not changed in five years, that's for sure...
Online comment sections are like modern day barrooms. You'll always find someone just blurting out the weirdest bullshit.
99% of those comments are either state propaganda bots or corporate marketing bots anyway.
But in the comment sections, that bullshit is amplified to a worldwide audience, and in an audience of that size, there will always be multiple lunatics like that. And for some reason they will always find each other.
