Isn’t there like a toungue in cheek comment about that in the movie?
And now they work for Israel?
They were too busy helping the British systematically starve millions of Indians.
PS: There were no good guys in WW2.
They were obviously a few in the bunker with hitler, probably meant to hand him a banana but accidentally gave him his gun. Probably not worth mentioning in the movies
I’d rather the minions be responsible for killing Hitler than the asshole that got all the credit in the real world.
Our concept of evil has changed overtime. In Dantes Inferno the people at the bottom of hell aren’t the people who killed the most, it’s the people who are most famous for betraying others. One of them is there because he stabbed the Hitler of his era in the back to protect democracy.
Dante’s Inferno is also effectively fanfiction of a socialite without any real ecclesiastical value. He wrote in the vernacular, instead of Latin, which was what made it accessible and popular.
All religion is fanfiction.
I had a friend in college who wrote a paper that religion was started by the original nerds who needed to classify and rank which level of angel and spirit.
I believe he argued the term “Angel of Death +2” is as equally valid as one name to the next across cultures and history.
I still think he was right.
I think they’d have split into groups, some with the Nazis, some with the British empire, some with the Japanese Imperial army…
★☆☆☆☆
Unoriginal AND proven false by the source material (they were conveniently stuck in an ice cave)
I was about to say this is established lore and one of the funniest retcons in media out there
Too convenient if you ask me.
Almost as if someone with advanced knowledge of the universe arranged for that to happen.
They were specifically locked in a cave in the 40’s so they couldn’t help our least favorite painter
Why would minions help Jackson Pollock
Yeah but what were they doing during the 30’s?
First they came for the minions…
I absolutely believe they made that happen specifically in response to these kinds of memes.
They served Napoleon, then got chased into a cave where they served some Yeti’s for awhile until the 70’s when they accidentally killed the Yeti leader and were forced out. Then they found Gru as a child.
Ackchyually Kevin got tired of living in the caves and recruited Bob and Stuart to help him find a villain to serve under which turned out to be Scarlet Overkill. She was crazy and the minions then stumbled upon Gru near the end.
The yeti thing happened while the rest of the minions stayed behind in the caves.
…I watched both minions movies on a long plane flight recently. They were surprisingly decent!
That’s true.
They fixed that theory by isolating them in Antarctica
You haven’t seen the latest movie. There are apparently many tribes of Minions, including some that were in America in the late 20s to early 30s.
I never noticed that, but it does fit and come as a relief.
Maybe they were in the Deep South around the 1800’s
They were no doubt involved with banana republics. Can’t forget the Khmer rouge so so many evil things they did
…Pol Pot was the leader of the Khmer Rouge
Thank you for that correction, my mistake
if minions were real who do you think they would follow today? Trump? Tim Apple? netanyahoo? Sam AltMan? Putin?
Bibi Buddies.
Peter Tiel I think. Trump and Altman are more like grifters. Net Yahoo and Putin are contenders, but they’re using mass murder to solidify their own power… It just feels too pedestrian
But Tiel is like a hardcore death cultist or something. He gives speeches warning about how AI will be the anti-Christ, then goes around putting up AI cameras everywhere. He’s the type that reads 1984 and pays people to build the torment Nexus
Why are you letting Stephen Miller off the hook?
He’s probably the closest thing to a Bond style supervillain that exist, if alchemy were real he would be trying to create a global transmutation circle to sacrifice humanity and gain immortality
No no, he thinks anyone AGAINST AI is with the anti-christ. Particularly Greta Thunberg
They’d be buying Teslas and spy glasses.
In a list with Netanyahu and Putin, complaining about glasses is a bold choice.
Nazis? Hmmmm, I didn’t like their mining policy, very polluting!
Or catholic priests…
The Church got away with a lot in WWII, the President of Slovakia was a priest and that country was the one that killed most jews proportionally.
Lets, not forget either that the biggest monstrosity of WWII was the religious cleansing, who had a beef with the Jews?
I rest my case.
I don’t understand the whole hating the Jews thing.
Had they not killed Jesus, his story would be worthless. They made him a martyr. They’re responsible for making Christianity in the first place
Oh wait now I understand.
the religious cleaning from the comie was an horor for sure.
Meanwhile the Nazi officials feared that Catholics may cause a civil war if they didn’t put just the right amount of pressure on the Vatican. And Protestants tried to become the official state church of Nazi Germany.
Lets, not forget either that the biggest monstrosity of WWII was the religious cleansing, who had a beef with the Jews?
I think you should take some history lessons. Being Jewish wasn’t a religious definition for the Nazis, we’re not talking about the Spanish Inquisition here. And it’s not like Catholics were more (or less) antisemitic than Protestants.
That was a period of Great Minion Divide, where half of them supported Hitler and the other half Stalin. It worked out well until 1941 and then things got… complicated.
What about the Hirohito and Britains Colony Garrison Minion divide groups?
Only 731 of them served hirohito
