Did 20th century socialists have a reasonable shot at toppling the global order of capital and creating a better economy for the people, by the people?
No, because market systems are necessary to coordinate economic information and incentives.
no because private ownership of the means of production is an important individual right and by attacking it they only increased corruption and the power of the state
A wave of revolutions across was narrowly possible if the Spartacists won in Germany and the Red Army won the Battle of Warsaw, but I suspect the socialist states would have turned on each other at some point.
How can we abandon the banker's usury, or is it impossible?

What does /his/ think about Mormonism?

>>2805087
Closet jews.
They exist to teach children a valuable lesson.
Not all religious persecution is wrong.
Batshit crazy, I've actually got a book of mormon, makes for a pretty entertaining read. Think of it this way, if Christianity is like Harry Potter, Mormonism is the equivalent of HP fanfiction where Harry gets fucked in the ass by Voldemort.
Why did 11th century Knights/crusading knights look like complete shit?

>W-wheres the great helms
12th Century.
None of those things are really necessary, and focusing on primping themselves and their obsession with prestige, heritage, and material wealth is what began their downfall.
What measures could have been taken to properly "britify" the Irish?
>>2804764
Not have the United States exist (not meming)
>>2804768
Elaborate?
The gulf between Britishness and irishness is about the same as someone from California and someone from Texas, they are literally nearly the same thing already.
people still claim we are Bulgarians
GLORY TO MAKEDON AND OUR ACNESTORY ALEXANDAR THE GREAT
STILL WE LIVE IN MACEDONIA LETS TALK ABOUT THIS OKAY?
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KxhMiXV7814&t=1s
PROOF THAT ALEXANDER THE GREAT WAS NOT GREEK:
ALEXANDER TO ARISTOTLE: " I have to ask you to explane to me: Why must i educate myself like a Greek, when i'm Macedonian? "
-TAKEN FROM THE BOOK "ALEXANDER CHILD OF A DREAM" 1998 PART 13, BY THE ITALIAN WRITER, HISTORIAN AND ESSAYIST - MASSIMO VALERIO MANFREDI
Alexander the great is Macedonian, his father Filip was Macedonian and its true. We are going to take back our two parts from Greece (HellAss) and Bulgaria. Greece is from Olimp to Ateena, and you are going to stay with your small part and eat rocks. From your situation in your country, you will ask for food soon, and only Macedonians are coming there, no Macedonians no money :) Solun e nash :))) Sekoja cest za sponenikot navistina voodusevuvacki !!!
What went wrong?

I don't want to sound too much like /pol/, but it was unironically the Jews. They wouldn't settle for a two-state solution so it was always going to end in tears, was only a matter of time.
>>2804719
Basically, in 1948 the evil imperialist white European Jews stole the land and future from the noble and peaceful POC Palestinians who have owned the land since before the earth existed. Ever since, Zionists have been oppressing and geocoding them. The brave oppressed Palestinians, in turn, have suffered in dignified silence, never once turning to violence, for that is not their way.
>>2804729
>unironically the Jews
Then why have Arabs rejected every two-state solution? The first one gave them 80% of the land. They had 5 chances at a Palestinian state but rejected each one.
Everything TV says Egypt invented, the books say the Sumerians invented instead.
Is there anything Egypt invented after all?
Proto-Christianity in the Osiris cult (but the Sumerians did have dummuzi though).
>>2804688
or perhaps they both invented them independently. also Sumerians didn't invent the wheel, they adopted it from proto-chariot using central asian pastoralists.
>>2804701
Idk just seems Egypt wasn't as advanced as we're made to think.
Especially compared to Mesopotamia or even the Indus Valley.
How widespread was crime in Nazi Germany?
I'm not talking about crimes commited by Nazi leadership and soldiers but the common ones like rape, robbery, murder between civilians?
>Highest social capital and cohesion in world history,
>strong economy
>strong culture to prevent poor kids from becoming niggers by making them take pride in their family and country
It would probably be hard to get actual statistics but it would probably be similar to modern day Japan in terms of crime rate
>>2804675
There are no reliable sources so everything is conjecture.
The ill-defined roles and internecine rivalry between the 5 different police organisations: Gestapo, Kripo, SiPo, SD, and Orpo lead to overlap and doctored stats.
If I had to guess, I would say that crime probably fell in the pre-war period due to the improved economy and the new freedoms the regime gave to the police to deal harshly with criminals and new measures to ensure punitive court sentencing of criminals. Organised crime probably disappeared.
Once the war started and the privations grew worse for the German population, crime between civilians probably skyrocketed with people feeling were forced to do anything to survive.
As the war wore on, shortages of practically all consumer goods led to a thriving black market and brought the associated crime and corruption.
During the last few years, the chaos brought about by urban destruction from the air then the eventual invasion of German territory, caused a breakdown of law and order on a mass scale.

What's /his/ opinion on conquistadoras?

i want one to conquer my face
>>2804254
Imagine genderbending the Spanish conquest of the Americas, where oily and hot tempered young spanish women kidnap native men and take them for husbands.
>>2804303
The few conquistadoras found the indians to be ugly.
