Who live in the Swamps/Marshes.

The Sumerian hypothesis is cute, but the Sumerians were long gone (RIP, fucking Semites) by the time of Rome.

The main problem is you sacrifice the power and leverage of a two handed sword for the ability to attack much more rapidly

>>2552072

Musashi was an old man when he came up with Niten Ichi Ryu. He didn't actually use it in any of his famous duels. By his own admission he had no idea what he was doing.
>>
>>2552096
Thats nonsense. For one thing, he was still accepting challenges when he became a kenjutsu instructor. Second. the majority of his kenjutsu is single sword on single sword. third there are many Japanese styles that teach nito swordsmanship. fourth, the idea that his career as a duelist didn't inform what he taught is stupid.

Could a "German Talleyrand" have saved Germany at Versailles?
6 posts and 2 images submitted.
>>
>>2551914
Nope
France's borders and general shape were already set upon by the Coalition in their general form, see the Peace of 1814.
Talleyrand's advance was to re-integrate France among the winners by claiming that Bourbon France was one of the winners, as they had struggled against Napoleon on the winning side too, and hence France was on the winning side.
In material, territorial, economic terms, he affected nothing.

A German Talleyrand would have been impossible as no German republic could ever claim the 20 years of active military opposition to Napoleon that the French exiled monarchists could, and like Talleyrand he wouldn't be able to impact the important things, territorial and economic concessions.

"I am convinced there is only one way to eliminate these grave evils, namely through the establishment of a socialist economy, accompanied by an educational system which would be oriented toward social goals. In such an economy, the means of production are owned by society itself and are utilized in a planned fashion. A planned economy, which adjusts production to the needs of the community, would distribute the work to be done among all those able to work and would guarantee a livelihood to every man, woman, and child. The education of the individual, in addition to promoting his own innate abilities, would attempt to develop in him a sense of responsibility for his fellow-men in place of the glorification of power and success in our present society."

Are the notions of "shared blood" or "shared genes" necessary components of kinship? Or are biological connections simply a few of many possible cultural symbols to imagine kinship? Is the distinction between "real" and "fictive" kinship meaningful or outdated?

>>2551639
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Zadruga

This was the last surviving "kinship" model, and it was formed on the idea of your extended family, including distant relatives and those who married into your extended family.

So I'd say either "shared genes", or "shared genetic investment", as is the case of marrying into a kinship.
Probably the second, as there was an emphasis of only men who have children partaking in decision making.
>>
>>2551639

Kinship only happens when parties are dealing with common threats and have vested interest in perpetuating kinship.

I'd say less "genes" than expressed phenotypes. People who like being around other people are going to have a kinship with natives, if they play along on the same level as them.

Of course, an area can filter a particular type of friendliness towards either xenophobia or towards homogenization. Warring tribes with alliances or monopoly of the single tribe in an area.
>>
Necessary? No. But have we evolved to the point where shared blood and shared genes are extremely important to our conceptions of kinship? Yes. Is that a good thing? Yes.

>America
>wins WW2 with spectacular nuclear fireworks
>objectively loses every single war since then, doesn't bother using nuclear weapons

Why kill a million people with nukes at the end of WW2 and then fight all these shit wars that could have been won with nukes like the Iraq wars and Afghanistan and the War on Terror(muslims)?

America could have ended the war on terror in 24 hours by deploying nuclear weapons on Saudi Arabia, Turkey, Iran, Morocco, Algeria, Libya, Yemen, Oman, etc, but instead it now is just a failed state with a tv star president and economy in the biggest debt bubble ever imaginable.

Is America the worst country to ever exist?

were the dark ages just a meme or did it actually happen?

It is true in the sense that there isn't as many written records as we would like, which is regrettable.

Though, it isn't the case that the corpus of human thought disappeared or shrunk.
That is also precluding intellectual movement outside of Europe.
>>
>>2551429
Mostly a meme. In some parts of the world it is arguably true, e.g. England, northern Spain, the Balkans etc. In places like Gaul and Italy it wasn't that bad. People had to move onto hilltops and the like to discourage Arab raids but other than that most of these places were relatively untouched by societal upheavals in the 5th-9th centuries AD.

So when Caesar was assassinated did the people of Rome just accept it? I have the understanding that he was madly popular and there were multiple instances when people shouted "king" at him, trying to exalt him as their king. He was a famous war hero and he made many reforms aiming to help the plebians. So they just accepted he was assassinated? Wouldn't they see that as a horrible crime? There were riots over gladitorial games but not the assassination of Caeasar? I iust can't wrap my head around it.

Sorry, I should have phrased it better. I mean riots that caused some major political upheaval. Like in Byzantuims Blue and Green riots, that almost disposed Justinian. I know that was sort of organized by Justinians rivals but yeah.

His works, primarily what he has to say on these reptillians.

Someone gave me a comment regarding Icke: He is that of a cult-leader like Applewhite until he has irrefutable proof that reptilians exist.
>>
>>2550323
Read some of his books or maybe watch some of his lectures.

Many of his books rehash things that he's already talked about in previous books. although each does have its own

The Biggest Secret is the one where he introduces the whole reptilian thing. I am Me, I am Free i think its called - that was a good one written before the reptilian theory. I read David Icke's Guide to the global conspiracy first and found that to be more than enough to get to know what he's about.
>>
>>2550323
The greatest mystery is whether he actually believes in shapeshifting reptiles, or if it's just a metaphor for Jews.

Pandora's box, or jar, as it was in the earliest versions like in Hesiod, contained all the evils of humanity. That is, disease, work, death, et cetera. Once Pandora had opened the jar out of curiosity, they all flew out and befell humanity. As she was closing the jar, all that was left, slightly below the lid, was hope.

Why was hope in the jar?

Maaan, you gotta wonder how fucking tense it was for George living under the english boot. All that plotting and bootlicking you had to do on the side, all those bribes you had to pay to british guards to look away, I don't fucking envy him.

It must have felt what it felt like to be a god damn terrorist. You have no idea if what you're doing is right or wrong, you just know you can't live under their thumb, you'll go crazy, you've gotta do something, you've gotta rebel!

I remember my dad taking me to a drive through movie parking lot, an old one like they had in the 50's. When they told them they had to tear it down, you could feel the heat coming off of the street. People were THIS close to exploding.

God they were pissed. Then the fucking police pulled up, boxed em in, and we tore em a new one. They knew they couldn't fire their weapons at a bunch of white people, they knew if they did that it'd be all over.

All their free vacations, their nice new houseboats, their 80 thousand dollar a year salary, their constant and unending brutality towards our young people.

We fought them with boards. We fought them with chains. We fought them with our bare hands! And we won!

Some crazy fool hopped into a cop car and sped off with it while they were distracted, which left an opening for the rest of us to get in our cars and escape.

They didn't dare chase us, for we had bloodied their nose and they were ashamed!
