Linguistic memes thread

>>2742003
latin is actually useful considering it was the language of academia for a long time
Europe literally BTFO out of everyone in science and math and technology
>but muh Islamic golden age
lol, Newton single handily did more to progress science than the entire history of the "golden age"
so why did Europe dominate
Big boats
They had access to the guns germs and steel factory and didn't want to share. Fucking shitlords.
Shoulder of giants
>Muḥammad ibn Mūsā al-Khwārizmī played a significant role in the development of algebra, algorithms, and Hindu-Arabic numerals.
Fibonacci
>He soon realised the many advantages of the Hindu-Arabic system. In 1202, he completed the Liber Abaci (Book of Abacus or Book of Calculation) which popularized Hindu–Arabic numerals in Europe.[2]
I have been always pro-life, but seeing one mentally ill guy with his parents changed my opinion, its hell for parent to take care of child that is screaming, spitting everywhere etc. his entire life.
(lets talk about both abortion and euthanasia)
It's a slippery slope. You think it's alright to destory them because they can't provide for themselves, but over time it changes to anyone with any sort of defect. I know many people who have things like bipolar, or autism, or OCD and they're still pretty productive members of society.
I think it's awwww right. I think the Dutch and Swiss offer assisted suicide for the mentally ill.

There is no good reason why we shouldn't kill mentally retarded people. They're a waste of physical resources and a emotional strain on normal people.
How does the afterlife in religions like Christianity work? The general cultural view is that a person is reunited with their family when they die if they've been good, but what if that person grew up in something like an apartment ghetto around really toxic people? There are lots of people who grow up with lives like this in the inner city alone. Why would they want to be around their family members in that case specifically?
>>2741148
The afterlife is quite complicated at least in Christianity. In Christianity, we die and are sent to the divine realm, those who believe are taken to heaven to abide with God, while those who disbelieve are put into Hades(?). Though when Jesus comes back, the bodies of the dead shall be raised up, the natural body was buried and the spiritual body raised instead, in which God will judge us, either to be with him in a new Heaven and Earth while those who rejected him are sent to Hell to be tormented (depending on which Christian scholars, it can be for eternity or they could be annihilated)
>>2741148
It's not specifficaly about being reunited with one's family. It's about being united/in communion with God and ALL other people in heaven, while Hell is being isolated from God, spending eternity without love.
You're tortured and laughed at for believing liars even tough you could derive from their priests and followers that they are evil people, then if you are lucky, you reincarnate and try again.
I've heard a lot of people chat shit about how he was a shit general who only won battles like El-Alamein due to superior numbers and his tactics were sub-WW1 level charges and artillery barrages.
Are the memes real? Was he shit?
Also would General Gott have done a better job?
A shitty person but I don't know if there were better British commanders in WWII.
>>2741018
weren't most WW2 generals shitty people anyway? I know he was like super annoying though
>>2741034
Out of those who didn't serve a totalitarian state? He was pretty bad. Ruined a man's life. Was pretty arrogant. Yeah those in power are usually shitty. Not that it's a rule but they knew how to get around.
Why have the majority of Russian leaders been bad?
Peter was great, so was Catherine
They like strong leaders. Genocidally strong.
Not many nations put their butchers in mausoleums.
>>2740911
He locked his wife in a dungeon for her entire life and was an abusive alcoholic.
"great"
According to international law, this wasn't a genocide because it targeted socio-economic groups and not religions, ethnicities or races.
>>2740869
So then the Holocaust wasn't one because Jews like to say they are not a race?
>>2740872
it was the killing of a culture, and thus an ethnicity
>>2740872
>Hah, I caught you with my net, Ares! Now I'll carry you two around and show everyone how you're fucking my wife!
Wait, what?
>>2740798
Hephaestus basically humiliated the shit out of Ares in this fashion. He, the great warrior god, was captured and shown about by Hephaestus, a fucking cripple of all people. Honor meant a great deal to the ancient Greeks. I mean, you look in the Iliad and people are having one on one duels, shouting out each others names and slaying each other like absolute madmen.
>>2741527
It's a little more embarrassing for the guy whose wife is getting fucked by another guy, isn't it? Or are you saying the ancient greeks were literally cuck and proud?
>>2740798
LOL
Wat a cuck
>The Imperial Senate will no longer be of any concern to us. Fear will keep the local systems in line. Fear of this battle station.
Seriously though, what the fuck was their problem? Could they literally not just *chill out*?
>>2740742
They wanted to bring peace, freedom, justice and security to their old empire

is Christianity just a reformed, liberalized version of judaism that's more welcoming towards foreign converts?
>>2740660
>Is [X] just [Y], except [Very simple extension]
No
No, we got the incarnation and the trinity. God was a human and so in the christianized west we tend to value human life and individuality more.
No, Christianity is an ultra-Hellenized Judaism or even a Judaized version of the Greek Philosophy.
Trianon = utterly unjustifiable act of anti-magyarizm.
Vae victis.

>Hungary to Austria: m-m-muh nation!
>Habsburgs: fine, here, dual monarchy. Enjoy your fuckingselves.
>Croats & Others: Whoa, what about us?
>Hungarians: NONONONONO FAKE COUNTRY FAKE PEOPLE NOT A NATION.
Everyone wants a nation-state, until the minority's minorities want one too.
Vienna Awards = utterly unjustifiable acts of magyar imperialism.
>invade a country that doesn't have an army
>lose
why are these guys such fucking memes? Why are these people regarded as some sort of god-tier warriors by edgy redditors when they got slammed by the Croats and Bosnians, despite them having the vast majority of YPA soldiers and equipment?
>invade
>>2740541
invade
the serbsw are redpilled you cuck and are the only ones fighting islam and sjw west in europe . they lost because american fascist propaganda lied about land the bosniaks are the ones who invaded and then entire world because UN betrayed serbia
Why wasn't Guderian ever made into a Field Marshal?
>>2740405
He was too competent to be overly aggrandized by a regularly furious Hitler and also too competent to be killed for regularly making Hitler so goddamn furious
His blessing and his curse, that cheeky fucker
Post more Guderian smuggies

Would George Patton have become president if (((they))) didn't assassinate him?
