Unsure what the implication is. The Kent State shootings are common knowledge in the US, it’s taught in schools, no one needs to be tricked into knowing it happened.
You’re talking like everyone is American, and knows all about this. I’m not trying to be a cock, just offering a little insight, it would be a bit like me posting to AskLemmy “what do you think the voting result will be then…is Khan staying?” …3/4s of Lemmy will have no clue what I’m on about.
No, I’m talking like the OP made an allusion to an event that happened in the United States.
It’s unclear what the OP is attempting to achieve by pretending the shootings at Kent State are some well kept secret.
Youve phrased it like you think everyone should know about the Kent State shooting. PSA …this is an international website, people dont know everything that happens in the USA.
Well, the US doesn’t even have a National curriculum, so I’m willing to be that there are probably many Americans who don’t know anything about Kent state.
My high school did a terrible job with teaching about it, I think it was mentioned briefly but with no real detail. I did go to high school in Florida, but I graduated in 2008 before things got really bad there.
Usually this format says something like “google joe biden inflation rule 34 to learn more”. So now I have to assume that you actually went and googled that :P
Yeah I’m personally a fan of “in 2008 the Sonic the Hedgehog series sold so much merch that people actually stopped buying houses. It directly led to the 2008 housing bubble and the massive inflation that followed. Following the recession, congress passed a rule, limiting when, where, and how much merchandise a single series was allowed to sell in stores. Google ‘Sonic Inflation Rule 34’ to find out more.”

You think that all people are american?
No…where did I say that?
Is there some other country that’s dealing with a crackdown on student protests at the moment where referencing Kent State would be salient?

Nobody anywhere knows everything. This meme format is used for topics people feel are somehow covered up.
e.g.:
Kinda validating my point. I can’t stand when Americans ignorantly default to assuming everyone is American/knows everything about America.
The patient explainer. Kudos.

Right here
It sure the fuck wasn’t taught in school, and I live in the fucking state.

I may be fucked but that is a step too far, even for me
