Howdy r/badhistory! It's time for another edition of Modmail Madness! Every time the sub is mentioned, we get a notification about it. We make note of what threads are being mentioned where, and if people have some really hot takes, we save the links and post them for your enjoyment. Onward!

The Nazis weren't much help to Japan in the Pacific because they were "mainstream, by the book, exemplary socialists", even though no actual academic historical book thinks that.

Is Dagoth Ur a Sumerian? This youtube video sure seems to think so!

Despite what this comment says, we've never disallowed anyone from saying Kissinger was a war criminal (and in fact, that's been said on the sub multiple times).

The original comment is gone, but remains quoted: "swords are from movies, not reality", which explains why archaeological digs across hundreds of sites and time periods have found swords.

And finally, Reddit users lack the power and ability to change historical realities, which is totally what you're doing when you quote actual primary sources that in fact agree with the established historical reality.

In terms of statistics, Mother Teresa bounced back to the top mentioned post from the sub, being linked in 21 unique conversations across Reddit. (Note that we only count a mention once per unique thread, because otherwise there would be hundreds from r/AskReddit alone every month.) The recent series on the T-34 took second place, with 14 mentions. And finally, hot takes about Easter meant that the post questioning Easter's supposedly pagan roots was mentioned 6 times. Altogether, 46 unique badhistory posts were linked to 93 conversations across Reddit. As always, if you have a post or a comment you think is worthy of the monthly post, mention us in the comments (or send us a modmail). See you next month!
