I think at that point you could've been talking about your 4th favourite dinosaur and it wouldn't have changed the outcome

Yep, people respond to conviction of speech even if what they're saying is unverifiable nonsense.
*looks you dead in the eye*
I'm certain the topic of your speech was secondary to the mood

"And while Austra-Hungary had a valid reason to go to war, they sent crazy demands that would destroy Serbian sovereignty. Russia, who also wanted the Balkans as their Sphere of Influence..."
Damb, I'm such a smooth talker XD

My pet theory is that the royal family got together to kill some peasants so they could keep all their wealth.

Ironically, historically, that's a bad plan. Most of the major gains in rights for the lower classes have come due to labour shortages.
There's a reason the rich suddenly got a lot more accepting of feminism just after WWII, and it wasn't an epiphany that women actually deserved those rights.

A community for your defence shitposting needs
Rules ::: spoiler 1. Be nice Do not make personal attacks against each other, call for violence against anyone, or intentionally antagonize people in the comment sections. :::
2. Explain incorrect defense articles and takes
If you want to post a non-credible take, it must be from a "credible" source (news article, politician, or military leader) and must have a comment laying out exactly why it's non-credible. Low-hanging fruit such as random Twitter and YouTube comments belong in the Matrix chat.
3. Content must be relevant
Posts must be about military hardware or international security/defense. This is not the page to fawn over Youtube personalities, simp over political leaders, or discuss other areas of international policy.
4. No racism / hatespeech
No slurs. No advocating for the killing of people or insulting them based on physical, religious, or ideological traits.
5. No politics
We don't care if you're Republican, Democrat, Socialist, Stalinist, Baathist, or some other hot mess. Leave it at the door. This applies to comments as well.
6. No seriousposting
We don't want your uncut war footage, fundraisers, credible news articles, or other such things. The world is already serious enough as it is.
7. No classified material
Classified ‘western’ information is off limits regardless of how "open source" and "easy to find" it is.
8. Source artwork
If you use somebody's art in your post or as your post, the OP must provide a direct link to the art's source in the comment section, or a good reason why this was not possible (such as the artist deleting their account). The source should be a place that the artist themselves uploaded the art. A booru is not a source. A watermark is not a source.
9. No low-effort posts
No egregiously low effort posts. E.g. screenshots, recent reposts, simple reaction & template memes, and images with the punchline in the title. Put these in weekly Matrix chat instead.
10. Don't get us banned
No brigading or harassing other communities. Do not post memes with a "haha people that I hate died… haha" punchline or violating the sh.itjust.works rules (below). This includes content illegal in Canada.
11. No misinformation
NCD exists to make fun of misinformation, not to spread it. Make outlandish claims, but if your take doesn’t show signs of satire or exaggeration it will be removed. Misleading content may result in a ban. Regardless of source, don’t post obvious propaganda or fake news. Double-check facts and don't be an idiot.

Lowkey, nerding out about the start of WW1 got me laid in college.
Turns out; lying down on a grassy hill, arms wrapped around holding eachother's heads up as we stare at the Milky Way while someone autistically rants about Realpolitik passionately explains the avoidability and moral greys of the first world war over a flask of rum; can, in fact, lead to an even better time!
