HistoryPhotos is for photographs (or, if it can be found, film) of the past, recent or distant! Give us a little snapshot of history!
Rules
- Be respectful and inclusive.
- No harassment, hate speech, or trolling.
- Foster a continuous learning environment.
- No genocide or atrocity denialism.
- Photos MUST be at LEAST 10 years old, and ideally over 20. We appreciate that we are living through events which will become history, but this is ultimately not a comm for news or current affairs, but events which have occurred some time in the past.

Counter argument. There’s plenty of other communities for this post. Leaving it up is saying it is so important it has already made history. This is the first I’m seeing this post.
Leaving it up, in this case, is less an assertion of its historicity so much as its importance (important insofar as we're living through a fascist fucking regime) and that there was, strictly speaking, no prior rule mandating any age for photos.
