Fake History Porn

Welcome to /c/[email protected] , where fake history is made. Find a historically significant photo, come up with a fake history title, post it, laugh.

The name is a reference to the fact that the pictures should be worth marveling at. This is NOT a place for hardcore pornography. Tasteful nudity is fine as long as it fits within the context of the post (please mark it as NSFW).

This post belongs in some weird limbo/union of fakehistoryporn, technicallythetruth and angryupvote.

I’m such an idiot that I opened the photo thinking my app wasn’t loading the image…

what do you mean it's not loading? try refreshing, it's a big picture, might take an hour or two to load, just keep staring at your phone.

You know it's fake history cause Edison didn't invent the light bulb. Or anything for that matter.

This is the type of quality content I expected from the fediverse. I was not let down.

Who knew Edison and his wife dressed up as furries every night? So lucky we have a photo of it for posterity.

Candles and lamps existed before the light bulb. Gas light was a whole industry, which is why we have the term gaslighting.
