I feel the same. I learn something new almost every day thanks to PugJesus. Learning about history through memes is fun!

It can be so bleak on here lately what with... everything. But every morning I see a bunch of owls and there's usually a post or two from PugJesus and I appreciate them both

PugJesus is my favorite poster. Nobody comes even close.

Good memes, but keep in mind they're occasionally pure American propaganda.

I don't keep track, but I remember a few posts about Yugoslavia being good examples.

Post history is public. If you want to make a statement like that without providing a simple example, you're clearly trolling and stirring up bullshit.

The well-known American ally of [checks notes]

... Socialist Yugoslavia

What do historical relations have to do with you parroting propaganda?

Also, check your notes again, Yugoslavia was never formally allied with the USA... And while you're at it, remind me how many of the unaligned countries were invaded by the USA?

... considering that I generally praise Yugoslavia on here, it would be pretty fucking questionable to claim that I'm parroting "American propaganda" in doing so.

... yeah, that's kind of the point I was making. Accusing praising Yugoslavia of being pro-US propaganda is pretty fucking absurd in light of the fact that Yugoslavia was pretty prominently non-US aligned.

So absurd that I didn't even think of that... I was talking about American propaganda regarding the breakup of Yugoslavia.

... what, exactly, are you saying is American propaganda? Genocide?
