There used to be a tripfag....that is all I will say.
>>2832107
they were more tolerant than many European factions which don't really say much
>>2832107
Yes, they were the successor to Rome.
Anyone familiar with her?
I'm doing a little research at the moment, trying to figure out why 'Eichmann in Jerusalem' caused so much butthurt
>>2832016
Because her analysis of her case study, Eichmann, did NOT reveal a sadist or a psychopath, but a pretty ordinary, even a bit pathetic person. It suggests that the conditions for that sort of mass savagery and inhumane butchery is not something you can write off as being part of a tiny minority of severely abnormal people, but that the potential exists in just about everyone, only waiting for the right conditions to bring it out.
>>2832036
Alright so why is that controversial? It makes sense.

Arendt BTFO Nazis, Jews, psychologists, criminologists, journalists, and mainstream liberals in one book. No wonder she's hated by many.
Should people be identified by their culture and religion instead of "muh X is not white" memes?
>>2831939
lol good luck for the people who identify themselves as being a member of the "white" culture
that would really go over well
>>2831939
Race is irrelevant. Culture is more important. A multiracial society is more stable than a multicultural one. The latter is possible too but not if they are too different. I always get along more with people who share similar interests as me of other races vs people with completely different interests who are my race.
americans dont have culture, regardless of their race

Yup you see all that snow white skin, blue eyes and blonde hair? Telltale sign of shitskin subhumans who you should totally post about on the internet
If he had lived and led Haiti instead of Dessalines, would Haiti be a much wealthier place today?
>>2831799
Maybe in the sense that a white minority that wasn't subject to genocide would boost the average income.
>>2831799
maybe
but the main reason was the embargos and diplomatic isolation.
>>2831799
I don't think he'd be able to stop France from fucking Haiti over.
I need a history lesson on Rasputin!
I'm in collage and i need to learn more about Nicholas II and Alexandra Feodorovna relationship with Rasputin and why people hated him so.
links, stories, BS, occultist anything would be helpful :)
>>2831700
He was playing naked twister with the Tsar's wife and after a while he couldn't take it anymore. The guy was ultimately a con holy-roller of Russia. To gain better view in the eyes of the lord, one must commit sin and repent. Rasputin was all like "hey ladies, hop on this dick and have sex outside of marriage and you can have an easy way to repent"
Though I think the Tsar's wife thought he was healing his son too... but she was probably getting some dick on the side.
Nicholas had him beaten, stabbed, shot, set on fire, and thrown into a river. His autopsy reported he died by drowning.
is it possible that Alexandra had some jewish blood?
she was a carrier of Haemophilia which is founded in jewish genes and mostly affects males
Rasputin was pretty legit. When he heard WWI started, he sent a scrswled note to the Czar from the hospital (he was stabbed) begging him to not fight Germany, saying it would end his dynasty and bring untold misery on Russia for many years.
A lot of people hated Radputin because he had a lot of influence on the Czar, so they made up ridiculous tails about him having orgies with all the aristocratic women. In actuality, he didn't bathe ot bother with his hair. Any money he was given, he'd give away within an hour or two.

What did ancient humans eat?
literally paleo
Red meat like venison and boars, lean white meat from birds, fish, eggs and fish roe, berries, nuts, fruits, raw grains, honey as a treat, seasonal greens like dandelions, wild onion, roots and tubers.
Did they really pick berries and nuts? Seems like a pain in the ass.
If so, how? It is a shame that an area with such a long history and diverse, rich culture is so unstable now.
No region on earth has peace. The Middle East isn't special in this regard.
I don't wanna admit it but we need a new Ottoman empire.
Since the Arabs have proven over and over that they can't run shit and the Perscucks are too weak and tolerant for their own good.
Atleast the Turks managed to keep the entire thing relatively stable for over 600 years, with or without a iron fist.
>>2831498
Do you consider the region at peace if is a radioactive wasteland?

Is this simple bit of advice the road to success in life?

Why is Suicide seen as such a bad thing?
I mean there's only really two choices, you go through with it, or to say "you know what, I'm too scared right now, I... I don't want to do it."
If you go through with it you die, as you must at some point. And if you don't, the choice is essentially to suffer, and inflict suffering...and then die. Possibly even in a way that is considerably more stressful and painful than this way; I've got death, I've got suffering and dying.
And you know what, it makes a whole lot of sense to end it all.
>inb4 God has forbidden it. You cannot play god and take your own life.
When premature babies are born, they are given intensive medical treatment. Their lives are saved basically, because doctors and nurses are playing god.
They're saying, essentially, "God's plan was that this person would die right now."
We are thwarting that, we are playing God, and we have to let them die.
Hmm... I don't know...why would ancient people have a problem with their sons, brothers, husbands or wives killing themselves? Can't imagine why they would come to think of something like that as bad.
The state owns you and you are nothing but tax and interest cattle to it. Now take these antidepressants and go back to wagecucking.
logically speaking you have the right to suicide
emotionally speaking you don't want your friends, family, and loved ones to have that right.
>tfw the only way I can motivate myself to clean my by pretending to wage war on the mess
>these 'wars' usually take place in what ever time period I recently learned about
>make up a head canon while I clean e.g., "After conquering the desk, Anon returned to the bed to reconsolidate his power there (make the bed)"
>when I'm finished I feel satisfied, having established IMPERIVM across the whole room

Are there any cultures/religions that respect or honnor animals and their part in the cycle of life?
>>2831263
All of them, with the exception of the anti-human and nature hating Semitic cults.
>>2831293
omg not true, god created animals so disrespect them and you disrespect god
allegedly native americans do. or thats what they taught us in school.
How the fuck was Portugal of all places able to start the age of exploration?
>>2830972
Never underestimate Portugal.
>>2830993
Apparently.
Portuguese nobles were having literal boatloads of offspring, creating a glut of young men who grew up in the triumphant closing days of the Reconquista. They pushed for papal support of raids and invasions of North Africa, and in the process started to chart the Atlantic coast of Morocco. The development of the caravel, tested in the rough waters of the Bay of Biscay, helped them navigate the more dangerous capes of Morocco and along with the Spanish discover several islands. With the Ottoman conquests in the eastern Mediterranean and subsequent Venetian monopoly that followed, Portuguese merchants found that these islands they recently discovered had just the right sort of climate to grow their own supply of expensive trade goods.
So the overpopulation, the crusading fervor and drive for subjugating non-believers, the new ocean-worthy ships, and the economic incentive for special plantations and slaves to work them all contributed.
