Wait that's not Jennifer Lawrence, that's Iron Chancellor Otto Von Bismarck who united the German states under Prussian rule.

[–] MxM111@kbin.social 5 points 8 months ago (1 children)

Yes, but did you actually say that? Like aloud?

I heard if you say it 3 times with the lights off while staring into a mirror he'll appear behind you.

[–] Viking_Hippie@lemmy.world 5 points 8 months ago (1 children)

I'd try that, but what do you feed a 19th century Prussian chancellor? I just don't think I have the resources to properly care for such a creature 🤷

[–] Flughoernchen@feddit.de 2 points 8 months ago (1 children)

What you need is a few good taters. Boil 'em, mash 'em, stick 'em in a stew.

Give it to us raw and wriggling. You keep nasty chips!*

*The statements of Gollum do not reflect the opinions of Viking_Hippie who, if anything, likes chips far too much.

I dare you to try it!

This is where John Oliver would jump in to say: except that's not who this is bc one of them is fake.

And then continue with: except that's a lie bc actually, two are fake!

Never trust a man with two first names.

[–] NABDad@lemmy.world 6 points 8 months ago (1 children)

What about three first names? Does the third one cancel out the second, or is the effect cumulative?

[–] Viking_Hippie@lemmy.world 5 points 8 months ago

"Von" isn't a first name, it's German for of/from. Same with the Dutch "Van"

[–] Rodeo@lemmy.ca 2 points 8 months ago

The Thomas family in my town always names their first son Thomas.

Thomas Thomas the fifth is the most recent heir to this sobriquet.

It took me a minute, they really resemble each other pretty closely. She probably gets confused with Bismarck alot. I bet people are telling her all the time, "Has anyone ever told you that you look like Otto von Bismarck?" and everytime she has to pretend like it's the first time she's ever heard that and thank them for the compliment, but inside she's like, "Goddamnit."

If that's true why hasn't Nicholas Cage stolen her?

[–] MargotRobbie@lemmy.world 14 points 8 months ago (1 children)

No, those are 3 paintings and one photo of Otto von Bismarck, you silly Billy!

[–] remotelove@lemmy.ca 3 points 8 months ago (1 children)

What if someone take a picture of a painting? (It's a strange scenario, I know.)

[–] lugal@lemmy.world 1 points 8 months ago

Still not a photo of Bismarck but a photo of a painting

You should have put at least one actual picture of Otto Von Bismarck alongside these pictures of Jennifer Lawrence to fool us.

If your girl wears a pickelhaube and united the German states, that's not your girl

[–] MxM111@kbin.social 7 points 8 months ago (1 children)

Also, not all of them are photos.

[–] Imgonnatrythis@sh.itjust.works 5 points 8 months ago

A photo of a painting is still a photo

[–] captain_aggravated@sh.itjust.works 6 points 8 months ago (1 children)

Bismarck had a plan. Bismarck always had a plan

[–] Iron_Lynx@lemmy.world 1 points 8 months ago (1 children)

Found the Extra History viewer!

Why let a youtube reference get in the way of a good crusade?

[–] FlyingSquid@lemmy.world 5 points 8 months ago

Still would.

Not enough people recognize that the guy who directly enabled two world wars deserves a punch in the face

[–] TankovayaDiviziya@lemmy.world 0 points 8 months ago (1 children)

What? How? Many say had Bismarck lived long enough, he could have prevented the First World War. He orchestrated the Scramble for Africa to prevent another war of European empires with each other. But that being said, he could have prevented a war at the expense of non-European nations. Bismarck is a boon for Europe but not for the rest of the world.

[–] DragonTypeWyvern@literature.cafe 0 points 8 months ago* (last edited 8 months ago)

Leaving aside for the moment his role in colonialism, because only white people matter to WW1 and 2 apparently and fighting over African and Asian colonies had nothing to do with it, he hated democracy and directly enabled the German obsession with totalitarianism. Obviously the Emperors had their own hands in that, but let's be real, they were idiots.

And, honestly, it's not real complicated to note that without Germany and the network of alliances he helped create you don't get two world wars started by Germany.

Now, sure, as a smart person he knew he had to maintain the alliance with Russia to have a balance of power, unlike Wilhelm Jr, but his obsession with top down control, based on his own competence, is what put the reins of ultimate power into the hands of two blithering, monstrous and monstrously arrogant morons.

Bismarck bit Mark until Mark bit Bismarck
