There’s actualy a fuckton of byzaboos at historymemes and every other place where rightwing “history” buffs congregate, and they are usually even worse than the nazi and Rome fanboys since the former two at least can usually admit their favourite countries did “something” wrong while the byzaboos are completely onesided since it’s harder to check them on their bullshit because the byzantine history is rarer and usually also written by byzaboos in the first place.
History buffs when asked what happened to the Indigenous peoples of the Americas and the Pacific.
(On second thought, the people who get nervous are at least partially self aware. You’ll get plenty who worship the colonization and extermination of natives as the best thing since drawing and quartering, or try to deny that it happened “what are you talking about? no one lived here before white people!”)
Oh what is this, weekly shred of self awareness?
For some reason “when their asked” annoys me so much. Is it that hard to get your “theres” straight as most likely a native English speaker?
*they’re
I knew a guy who was a WW2 history buff, but that also seemed to be the only thing he knew about. To the shock of no one, he was a super right wing gun nut and we were all afraid he was going to shoot up the office one day.
