autistictesla:

people attacking tumblr users for being gullible as if there WASN’T a national panic when “war of the worlds” was presented on the radio in 1938 because people thought that martians were legitimately attacking

tumblr doesn’t make people more gullible people are just fucking gullible and tumblr is a microblogging platform on which information is easily spread and amplified lay off

You wanna know why this post is amazing?

There WASN’T a national panic when “war of the worlds” was broadcast.

It’s a total myth that took hold because people are gullible and no one checks sources.

This is doubly ironic because the national panic did actually happen
