Yeah, because the Algerians just famously sat around and waited for the French to leave, and even if they fought, not like they were in any actual danger.

Yeah the French totally left all on their own, and this love of the freedom fighters is comparable to American conservatives.

That thread is a gold crap mine of dunk tank posts.

    Does anyone else get the vibe that Reddit is just a bunch of gen x and older millennials? Like I keep seeing the most caustically stupid takes and satanic racism on that site, which doesn’t necessarily mean that younger people can’t be among those groups, but still.

    Like the combination of deeply unserious and uncalibrated takes, abused and overused memes, and racism/-phobias just scream 35-50s.

    Compared to TikTok, the environment and posts are just SO MUCH different.
