    Officer’s ordering us to charge a bunch of machine guns on the other side of eight rows of barbed wire in no man’s land; if we refuse we’ll be executed 😅

    “The screams of the horses as they lie dying, shot to pieces by the automatics from the opposing trenches during the last charge, I can’t stop hearing them. Its been three days and nights, none of them could still be alive right? This is all just in my head, right? Why can’t I stop hearing them? Why can’t this stop, why can’t I go someplace without the screams?”

    A remake of Dangerous Minds where instead a teacher with off the wall ideas has at risk kids make ten tiktok dances to convey the sacking of Rome by the Holy Roman Empire.

    I feel terribly sorry for the Russian troops with their horribly outdated Mosin-Nagant. The technological prowess of the French Chauchat will lead us to victory.

      Misread this as “hun” referring to the way MLM-moms* refer to each other on Facebook groups. I always suspected doTERRA oils were chemical warfare, but this brought a new meaning to it for sure.

      *Ironically, people might read this as “Marxist Leninist Maoist” Moms

    There is no way to actually do this and not be a communist at the end.

    came up with a couple history teachers I know, honestly thought the premise was fine. the goal is getting students to empathize or put themselves in the shoes of the speaker regardless of the communication medium

      The fact that all of the comments here are engaging with the premise shows off that it’s funny and engaging, imo. Silly sounding & prime to be memed, but “what if [social media] was around in [historical period]” is an online classic.
