Oh shit, sorry, fell asleep on the keyboard. That’s boring. Stop being so boring. Besides, that’s totally historically inaccurate. Because, we at AFFotD, like many Americans, know the real story behind the Oregon Trail. We know it not because we “read books” or “watched PBS documentaries” or “listened to a lecture from a storied American History academic.” Fuck that noise. We know it because we lived it, man. We were there, we know what’s at stake, and we know what we have lost.
That’s right, you can take your “historical discussions of the cultural impact regarding settlements along the Oregon Trail” and shove it up your monocle, we know the score because we are intimately familiar with the most American Educational Video Game of all time.
