ahh, german funny ww1 maps. why the fuck not eh? is the imaginary land of jewistan in there someplace?
- ...sorry?mikotondria3
- ignore my client infused ranting.airey
- What – Jewistan?dog_opus
- i struggle with revisionist german humour that depicts anything to do with ww1 or 2 is all.airey
- What's with the "Jewistan" comment, though?dog_opus
- well the german revisionist humour ignores the atrocities forced onto the german jews.airey
- so my comment was sarcasm towards what the german humourist may have invented.airey
- as many germans consider it all a conspiracy theory and not real.airey
- obviously this artwork is pre these facts but anything to do with german humour around eitherairey
- so-called 'great wars' could be considered suspect and dodgy.airey
- there's more english-speaking holocaust deniers than german ones, fyi...Greedo
- true. my basic commentary though was, when thinking war + fun do you immediatelh think german?airey

airey, ww1 was almost inevitable with the way europe was tangled up in mutual assistance treaties and whatnot. it would've happened sooner or later, germans or not. it was the slowpoke austrians that are to blame in the first place.
notice there aren't any 'fun' ww2 maps.
