Having discovered an interesting TV series called The Sixties (followed by subsequent decades) this evening I watched part 3 about the assassination of JFK.

The narrator said something along the lines of regardless of all the theories it seems clear that Lee Harvey Oswald shot the president and we'll never know why, because he was killed.

So, I thought, had this happened more recently investigators would be going over his computer and phone where they'd likely find something of relevance.

Anyone have any suggestions for what might be found on historical figures' Facebook and similar had they existed at times in the past?

Other than pictures of cats of course.

Guy Fawkes would have downloaded a PDF on how to keep his powder dry.

If he'd "remembered"

Made me laugh, two quality posts!

Some of the victims' posts are out there:

'Ambulance chasing attorneys' might have been around even before there were ambulances to chase......

Lavrenti Beria's Friends page would have made interesting (& quick) reading!

.

Rumour has it that Eva Braun met him on Tinder.

A deleted post from Karl Marx... 'Let's order a thousand yellow flags? I hate the colour red...'

See, this thread can work with a little imagination.

LMAO at this thread

I used to set my GCSE students a revision task of creating Facebook profiles of the prominent Nazis- they were pretty imaginative!

I like to think that Shakespeare's blog would be fun... particularly in the vein of the 'slummy mummy' bloggers. And there'd certainly be some feminist ranting from Joan of Arc. I'm pretty sure Matthew Hopkins would have created a 'lost witch in Norfolk' Facebook site, with rewards offered for potential sightings. Houdini could have youtube tutorials on lockpicking.

The possibilities are endless 😊

'36 days and Noah's lost. Said he knew where we were going but he's bloody lost. Useless sod let the elepahant eat the maps. Had to feed another pig to the lions yesterday and the tiger's got loose again, just as well we've go all these animals aboard else they'd be eating us. And god, there's another useless bugger, told us to spend our savings on this boat.. and what for? Said it was going to be a luxury cruise but he didn't tell us we'd be sleeping with the sheep, and the crap, there's mountains of the stuff. Gotta go, Shem's fallen overboard and Japheth's tied Ham up again. I'm fed up, just wait till you read the book, bet they'll make it sound wonderful...'
