Explanation: During Mehmed the Conqueror’s Siege of Constantinople, he managed to bring down the ancient and formidable city by using a large number of a then-cutting-edge technology - cannons!
They are, indeed, lethal.
Im more curious as to what the community notes was in response to. Like was somebody handwaving the use of cannons?
I’ve been on the internet for almost 30 years and that might be the dumbest post i’ve read.
As a former artilleryman i’m offended because steel rain will fuck you up in any epoch.
Artillery is like one of the central weapons in the warfare
Bombs aren’t lethal.
Out of most bombs that have been dropped in history, how many have directly hit a person?
Good thing both cannons and bombs are famous for only being effective if they directly hit a person.
Beautiful, thank you for posting.
There’s no way. Next you’ll be saying fascists are going to make a mess of the world.
