Nicaragua is still a shithole ruled by Daniel "Captain Clusterfuck" Ortega and his wife, who is a literal witch, Rosario Murillo.

By now I take it we've all seen the fight of the Tai Chi "Master" vs the MMA guy:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=V6RrxTBdJs4
My question is, when did Chinese martial arts historically become bullshit? Were they always bullshit and useless in a real fight, or did this happen over a period of many years - e.g. shitty HK movies making people believe they could defeat others when in reality they never could.
Incidentally, it turns out that the MMA guy in the video is now in hiding, fearing for his life because of death threats from Chinese nationalists.
>“The key difference between what Mr. Xu does and martial arts is that martial arts isn’t a competitive sport,’’ he said. “It’s not about really hurting. It’s about giving your opponent ‘face.’ And Mr. Xu’s style is about beating your opponent to near death.”
>>2813203
>Incidentally, it turns out that the MMA guy in the video is now in hiding, fearing for his life because of death threats from Chinese nationalists.
Man, the 'martial arts' industry in China is so fucked up. So many deluded people.
>>2813203
>Incidentally, it turns out that the MMA guy in the video is now in hiding, fearing for his life because of death threats from Chinese nationalists.
To be fair though, the MMA guy was a bit of a faggot.
He obviously knew the martial arts guy was not realistically going to beat him in a fight, they're not fighting for real in a ring, and it's just a little bit of show in front of a crowd, I mean he isn't even wearing gloves. And yet he goes full MMA on the guy, straddling him when he knocks him down and beating the shit out of him with head punches, and then he fucking celebrates.
If the MMA dude had any self respect, he'd just have knocked him down, then stepped back or helped him up or something, as it's plainly clear before anything happens that he is never going to be in any danger of losing.
How was the life of the Daily serf or peasant in villages? What was their routine? were they allowed to enter the Lord's forest or were they forbidden? Were they given any certain rights?

If a modern man managed to go back to the middle ages, would he be able to serve as a doctor with the trivial knowledge of medicine & health most people have nowadays?
Probably not due to a vastly different landscape of medicine, ignorance regarding surgery (procuring or manufacturing medical ointments/wire for stitches and so on) and I'm not sure off the top of my head if sanitation was a medieval problem, or an issue which came to a head due to industrialization/commercialization of hospitals
>>2826298
nope
Your average joe probably knows less practical stuff than the average medieval doctor. Sure, they would know that the humors are a load of crap, but they don't know enough to suggest actual treatments. At the very least, medieval doctors were aware of medical advances made by the greeks and sand people, as well as basic anatomy and herblore.
>>2826298
No, Wundarzt, thats external medicine, was pretty good at the time, they had lots of expirience how to thread cuts, broken bones, burns and other stuff with basic medicine.
You could however invent the smallpox vaccination or the ether anesthesia if you paid attention in organic chemistry.
I'm reading a translation of Quran and I'm finding it a quite enjoyable reading, it is really well composed despite its contents.
But I wonder, if the Quran is a phony revelation, how did Muhammad wrote it? Where have he got inspiration for its theological contents and inter-textual narratives? Was he really illiterate? Did he had some help?
Has he got in touch with Christians and Jews to learn then write things that seems to be commentaries/answers to the contents of the Torah and Gospels?
It seems to be over the capability for a guy that inhabited a desert shithole.
>>2823337
He had some family member were very well-versed in the Torah and other Jewish texts. I mean the most quoted verse of the Quran by muslim apologists is:
>We decreed for the Children of Israel that whosoever killeth a human being for other than manslaughter or corruption in the earth, it shall be as if he had killed all mankind, and whoso saveth the life of one, it shall be as if he had saved the life of all mankind.
This was straight out of the Talmud, which Jews never claimed to be holy. The Talmud is a collection of 500 different authors over hundreds of years. It's just rabbis arguing over the torah, law, and some folklore. It wasn't claimed to have been "written by Moses" or sanctioned by God like they say for the Torah.
I think he knew about some of these ideas, as their were christian and Jewish tribes in Arabia, personally i believe Muhammad (Peace be upon him) just achieved spiritual insight from intense meditation, you could argue that he just spent so much time to formulate his own spiritual/philosophical ideas and just presented them as divine.
>>2823749
Interesting, please provide me more information about it.
Whose are these family members, were they jewish? Also, were there jews and rabbis in Mecca then?
Another thing, about his writings over Jesus, was Muhammad possibly inspired by Arianism? He writes a lot about denying the Trinity.
How much of Korean history is wewuzing? I legitimately had a Korean guy tell me that the Aisin Gioro family were actually Koreans, and therefore the whole Qing dynasty were really Koreans
>>2823094
They wewuz everything. it's a huge meme in Asia
All asians wewuz each other all the time.
>>2823094
They also say the Mesoamericans were descended from Koreans.
When someone thinks in a certain way because of the political climate at the time, and many years down the road people who follow said thinking apply it in exactly the same fashion
Example: Hitler hated Slavs (probably because of communism) and now somehow Slavs are racially inferior according to neo-nazis
>Hitler hated Slavs
>Slavs are racially inferior according to neo-nazis
Neither of those things are true. Go to any "neo-nazi" website and not one of them is anti-Slavic, the only ones with an anti-Slavic bias are the supposedly anti-racist liberal ones like Salon and Buzzfeed.
>>2822671
>Implying that Hitler didn't plan on killing off all of the Slavs once he was finished with the Jews

Lewd History Thread ?
Lewd History Thread.
I'll start with Pre-Islamic Arabia:
>There were other types of marriage or cohabitation such as secret cohabitation, which has been frequently described in Arabic poetry. In this case, the woman only received occasional visits from the man she loved. The man often belonged to a hostile tribe and visited his lover in secret. Although the poets usually boasted of them as forbidden love affairs, the relations were usually well-known and not a cause of shame or punishment for the woman; the secrecy was simply a matter of etiquette. Marriage by exchange was another form of marriage where a man could exchange his wife or daughter for another man's wife or daughter without having to pay a dowry.
>Wife-lending was a practice whereby husbands allowed their wives to live with "men of distinction" to produce noble offspring. The husband, who abstained while his wife lived with the other man, would then be socially considered the father of the child.
Yes men do not mind sharing women with men they admire. Also, men always define themselves through women so men are eternal numales.

Can this be a gay edition?
I got one: supposedly, oral sex (irrumatio) was often referred to as 'Egyptian-style', due to the fact that during the course of the many Crusades, the Saracens/Egyptians would orally rape their captured Crusader foes.
I very badly want to see a burly, fair-haired Crusader in armor on his knees and being facefucked by a similarly burly, swarthy, bearded Saracen, the mouth that only a while ago shouted "Deus lo Vult!" now being a receptacle for a musky dick, and spit dribbling down his chin and tears building in his eyes from both the sheer distaste and humiliation of the experience :3
