What did you learn today? Share it with us!

We learn something new every day. This is a community dedicated to informing each other and helping to spread knowledge.

The rules for posting and commenting, besides the rules defined here for lemmy.world, are as follows:

Rules (interactive)


Rule 1- All posts must begin with TIL. Linking to a source of info is optional, but highly recommended as it helps to spark discussion.

** Posts must be about an actual fact that you have learned, but it doesn't matter if you learned it today. See Rule 6 for all exceptions.**



Rule 2- Your post subject cannot be illegal or NSFW material.

Your post subject cannot be illegal or NSFW material. You will be warned first, banned second.



Rule 3- Do not seek mental, medical and professional help here.

Do not seek mental, medical and professional help here. Breaking this rule will not get you or your post removed, but it will put you at risk, and possibly in danger.



Rule 4- No self promotion or upvote-farming of any kind.

That's it.



Rule 5- No baiting or sealioning or promoting an agenda.

Posts and comments which, instead of being of an innocuous nature, are specifically intended (based on reports and in the opinion of our crack moderation team) to bait users into ideological wars on charged political topics will be removed and the authors warned - or banned - depending on severity.



Rule 6- Regarding non-TIL posts.

Provided it is about the community itself, you may post non-TIL posts using the [META] tag on your post title.



Rule 7- You can't harass or disturb other members.

If you vocally harass or discriminate against any individual member, you will be removed.

Likewise, if you are a member, sympathiser or a resemblant of a movement that is known to largely hate, mock, discriminate against, and/or want to take lives of a group of people, and you were provably vocal about your hate, then you will be banned on sight.

For further explanation, clarification and feedback about this rule, you may follow this link.



Rule 8- All comments should try to stay relevant to their parent content.



Rule 9- Reposts from other platforms are not allowed.

Let everyone have their own content.



Rule 10- Majority of bots aren't allowed to participate here.

Unless included in our Whitelist for Bots, your bot will not be allowed to participate in this community. To have your bot whitelisted, please contact the moderators for a short review.

If you can get estrogen into his food can’t you get rat poison into it?

I think the allies actually made a specific decision not to kill Hitler, because he was so incompetent at prosecuting the war. They felt that it he was killed and a less insane Nazi took over the war effort it would make a lot more problems for them.

Hitler was actually dumb as fuck and made horrible military decisions that helped win the war, like declaring war against the US and USSR when he didn't have to.

If the choice is evil and incompetent vs evil and not incompetent, you pick the former

This is why Trump would be a better bad outcome than Desantis. Both are malevolent, but only one knows/cares how the political machine works to enact his cruelty into law as Reagan did, the other mostly just wants to hear himself talk and has to be led around and babysat by others.

When you're remembered more for your SCOTUS appointments, you were a failure at getting legislation passed.

Ah you know what, I do remember reading that

Pretty sure there would've been a whole lineup of more competent people waiting to take his place if he dies.

We were one British plot away from possible estrogen-induced gynecomastia which would have given rise to the nickname Titler. Those limey bastards.

You know what? Fuck you. feminizes your fascist

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago

It wouldn't have worked. I'm on estrogen and want to rule the world too.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago

So all those Titler photos weren't just of pure phantasy!

Dumbasses didn't know it's the Spiro that reduces T
