    This was posted during the first Trump admin and, if I recall correctly, yes this poster was being glib and knew the empire was half inspired by the US (the other half was Natzi Germany).

    More tangential, but I wish timestamps always showed the full year date. None of the massive blog companies will do that though because reposting old screenshots as if they're fresh is a percent chunk of engagement they don't want to lose out on.
