minus-square@[email protected]linkfedilink35•3 months agoThe fact that they dug up Oliver Cromwell’s body for a posthumous execution. It’s just insane on so many levels
minus-square@[email protected]linkfedilink7•3 months agoDid they not just dig it up so they could put his head on a spike for all to see? Ask anyone from Ireland or Scotland at that time if it was justified and your head would be on a feckin spike for even questioning it 😂
