    The weird ass dictator countries let you wear the medals of your ancestors … all of them.

    Did great grandpa get a medal for genocide? Awesome, pin it on.

    This is why they have medals going down their pants legs.

      I mean, this is a thing in Australia too. But you wear them on the other side of your chest to show they’re not yours.

      Did his dad get a Medal for getting arrested after a Klan riot in 1927?

      You know, back when the Anti fascists actually did stuff.
