Germany: we are sending mustard

In 1917 to the world!

I assure you, never have Germans talked like that

A poorly made meme

Perhaps, but do we have to support that?

Not at all. But we also don't have to shit on someone's work because you don't like it. Curious as to how many others that didn't like it who simply kept scrolling.

Scrolling on would be like giving up. Also pointing out mistakes is not "shitting on something". People can do better, it's not that hard.

"poorly made meme" seems like a shitty way to point out a mistake.

OP made a mistake. Maybe by pointing it out they don't make one in the next post. That's all there is.

"It's a meme" is not an excuse

I can see how ""poorly made meme" and "you made a mistake" may sound similar. I've seen some dog shit memes that are historically accurate, and amazing memes with false information.

We all shit on the Germans for being the first to use chemical weapons, but the French were actually the first to use it as the front approached Paris. Mustard gas was originally designed as an area denial system, the idea being that it could be launched via artillery into an open field and essentially be a chemical minefield. The inventors were mortified to learn that generals were ordering it to be launched directly at troops.

You mean bleach and ammonia?

For context: Mustard gas was used rather than mustard

Because literally everyone knows, it’s either a shitpost and belongs on r/shitposting or you genuinely think this is interesting, suggesting you just learnt it recently instead of when you were 5

You think I live in a country with good education?

Pretty much any education, not even good education. If you’ve got access to the internet this isn’t news to anyone
