Why did I feel a need to have a look at the comments though? ๐Ÿ˜ญ

Ah yes, 1917's Germany, obviously led by radical leftist Nazi emperor Wilhelm II

Checkmate, libtard.

Probably a troll though with the Tom Pfp

Wow, they're gonna have a melt down when they hear about the people's democratic republic or Korea.

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.

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.

99% of those comments are either state propaganda bots or corporate marketing bots anyway.

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.

Where did these people go to high school? Because I went to high school in Florida and even I'm not this ignorant. Wow.

Those sure are words. Seemingly randomly ordered.

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.
