Howdy badhistory! It's time for another installment of Modmail Madness, where we notify you about all of our favourite notifications that Reddit, well, notified us of. The best, worst, and just plain weirdest are compiled for your enjoyment below.

Firstly, although OP claims this debunk isn't high effort enough for us at r/badhistory, we beg to disagree.

This guy both fails to actually insult us, but also gets taken down by the rare mod callout. Two for the price of one!

Venice only has canals because it was the only port to sell slaves! They don't even have fresh water, so it must be the slave thing! Said no credible historian ever.

What's that looming on the horizon? Why yes, it's another unironic use of The Chart!

This one is another excellent debunk, this time about some interesting (*cough* made up *cough*) claims about Mound-Builder societies in North America.

We add another accusation to our list this month. Do you think one day they'll realize we're pedantic on purpose?

In the 1860s, the USA was the first country to abolish slavery! Just ignore all those other countries that abolished it in years preceding 1860, if you would be so kind.

To no one's surprise, Mother Theresa was our most mentioned thread this month, with 18 unique mentions. Mark Felton was second, with 4, and Mansa Musa made it into third with 3. Altogether, 23 r/badhistory threads were mentioned across Reddit in 46 different conversations. That's it for this month, but we'll see you in January for what will surely be some festively bad historical takes.
