Damn, here I thought I was living in a capitalist dystopia. Truly, the race mixers pulled one over on me. Must be the mixed blood in me making me vulnerable to communist brainwashing.

Mind mentioning where I said this was the first test?

I think OP is just grabbing posts from “fakehistoryporn” off Reddit and not understanding the difference…

You do realize that's not the kind of material "fakehistoryporn" posts, right? It would be labeled something more like "Experimental worm-removal by shockwave, 1865"

Just another of the (probably hundreds) of shitty meme communities OP mods or posts too. At this point I’m just blocking their whole account.

That's what the block button is there for.

M3 Grant/Lee, the tank that came before the M4 Sherman. They couldn't engineer a solution for the heavy main gun to get on the turret and they needed a tank for North Africa as quick as possible, so they just slapped it on the hull and called it a day as they moved on to the M4 Sherman.

Don't think so. Minimum height for US conscripts was 5'2. Guy on the right is probably a tall fella.

He looks like he's leaning forward a bit, but his proportions seem normal to me. Might just be the angle of the camera.

Also, gotta consider that the uniforms of the period are often a bit baggy.

For those wondering, the riot police still attacked them in the end. But the Velvet Revolution eventually succeeded in overthrowing the government through sustained civil resistance and strikes.

Nowadays they don't have to do that. The dogs outrank the humans, so they can just give orders directly. o7
