Does anyone else kinda find it annoying that Reddit is mad that Putin was giving a history lesson? I mean I didn't watch the interview (and I won't tbh) but it seems pretty silly to go after him for providing historical context to the region.
There are other reasons to be mad at Putin and tucker, but this wasn't it.
I saw posts about putting explaining the formation of the earth and the big bang on reddit. It's silly.
Settler colonists are trained from birth to advocate that bygones be bygones because that's the only moral framework under which they can even try justify living on stolen land.
Therefore, other people remembering history is a direct threat to the anglo settler colonists and they will react accordingly.

I never thought of it like that, it makes so much sense why Americans and anglos think that way.

It is silly, but it's also entirely predictable. Since they (reddit libs) have no concept of the historical context, when it is provided, all their shitty surface-level vibes-based reasoning for supporting NATO and Ukrainian fascists starts crumbling. So of course they're going to get upset at being informed of history. It triggers their cognitive dissonance and makes them look like the fools they are.
