History Wasn’t Their Thing
Kids aren’t able to reason the same way adults are, which can lead to some hilarious and mildly embarrassing beliefs they might not be willing to share with everyone, at least until someone asks them on Reddit. They might carry these beliefs for a long time and never question them because they seemed to make sense at the time.
That’s probably why u/Zombies_hate_ninjas never told anyone they thought Darth Vader and Luke Skywalker were as real as the founding fathers. It just made sense to them. While they shared their secret, they unfortunately didn’t include how they discovered the Clone Wars never happened. We bet our X-Wing it was probably a good story.
