Charlie Chaplain was dead long before I was born but yet I've still seen The Great Dictator.

Yeah because we had limited entertainment options growing up.

If we had endless short videos and memes on glass rectangle, we wouldn't know about Charlie Chaplin or Buster Keaton either.

Bullshit. I only know about how awesome Buster Keaton is because of memes. Memes are how I even came to know about the Great Dictator. Before that, I thought Chaplain was only in silent movies.

How is Chaplin related to Trump?

I said the great dictator. Trump is far from great. :P
