Oh, god. It's the people that constantly quote each other, type way too much, and get all upset over little internet things that mean absolutely nothing, but egos are on the line!

And we're in historymemes, not lemmyshitpost. Bravo, OP.

Yes, we're in HistoryMemes, not FictionMemes. Dismissing the validity of posted history with spurious arguments is kind of fucking important. Sorry that I'm not the biggest fan of letting misinformation go. Maybe next time someone can claim Columbus proved the Earth is round, and like a good HistoryMemes moderator, I'll sit there and smile and nod. That's what history is all about, isn't it? Spreading misinformation without the horrible fate of someone contradicting you (generic you, I know you aren't the same person as above)?
