I may have thought it was a fake picture even 20 years ago. That kind of stuff could have come from Something Awful's Photoshop Phriday.
Photo editing and compositing has been around long before photoshop too.
Sure, but since the advent of digital media I wouldn't assume someone went full Stalinian propaganda to fabricate that picture. Though I think I would respect that effort, in a way.
Cheers to an old old memory. You look like shit.
