Everytime we hear about black magic and the occult it's either pagan rituals, some hindu sects (like Kali), african religions or satanism (that comes from christian and pagan traditions).
I don't think I ever saw a representation of what black magic for muslims look like. I know they believe in Djinns and the Evil Eye, but they never seem to have had a sub culture that dwells in the occult (unless you count Yazidis as occultists).
Why is that ? Is there some branch of the Occult that is strictly based on Islamic belief ?
>>3297718
no its more the other way around, traditional local beliefs and magic get worked into local brands of islam
other than that sufis are kind of more ezoteric than religious, there were all sorts of brotherhoods of mystics and the occasional holy man that had powers, and then theres the dervish spinning around till they see god or something
>>3297718
There's no point in it when your religion is already based on murder, boy fucking and dick cutting. It's the exact same situation as with Judaism.
Why did Nationalism go from being a Left-wing ideology to a right-wing ideology?
>Republicanism is left wing
If anything it was a revolt of the liberal-progressive class against the nobility, the same people who would later ow factories where all the proles worked in.
>>3297709
Judge yourself
>>3297709
It's still a left-wing ideology, very few people today could be considered "right wing" in any sense. In practically every Western country you have liberals and slightly more right-leaning liberals.

Why do turks in general stay stuck with the emotional maturity of a teenager throughout their whole lives ?
Is it because of the emotional and physical abuse they are subjected to daily ?
Why is the Nobel Peace Prize such a fucking joke? Is it because such a prize is inherently stupid? Is it because of norwegians mental deficiencies naturally leading them to pick the worst possible candidate every single time?

What cultures were actually lewd and sexually open enough to do stuff like wife sharing ?
I know pre-islam arabs used to let their women be impregnated by other higher-class arabs and scythians shared the wives with each other.
Did Vikings and Celts do the same ?
>>3297682
1. ARABS DO NOT GET "MARRIED"
2. THESE CULTURES ACCEPTED THE SCARCITY AND VIGOUR OF THE ARYAN GENESEED;
3. SCYTHIANS ARE IRANID, GIVING THEIR WOMEN TO THEM WAS A NON-MERETRICIOUS ACT.

How comes Germany was much more peaceful than other European powers?
>>3297681
Germany didn't became strong enough to really be a force in the world until Bismark, and then Wilhelm almost immediately ruined everything that Otto had worked so hard to build. Whenever I think about it, I'm am thankful that Bismark died before WW1, so that he was spared the horror of seeing everything unravel.
>>3297681
We simply weren't as united and powerful as France, the U.K. or Austria.
"I hate krauts who disagree with me but I hate other countries even more."
t. Otto Von Bismark
This statement alone caused a breakthrough in German thought. Led by this "genius" rhetoric, the Germans brought their inferiority complex to new heights. They were now united as one. The Germans were all finally living in one country. Undivided in their quest for relevance, they decided to call their country: The German "Empire"
Desperate to prove themselves relevant to the whole world, the Germans frantically searched for a reason to wage a war they could win. The death of some irrelevant prince in some backwater country with a vague connection to the German "emperor" Was all they needed to start a war.
With inflated egos, they decided to declare war against the whole world. The Germans fought this war quite seriously, exterminating anyone in their path and using all sorts of underhanded tricks. They were dead-set on world domination.
But the rest of the world wasn't taking it so seriously. They could have easily exterminated the Germans, had they stooped half as low as them. But, as humanists, they didn't want to deprive future generations from observing one of nature's most hilarious mistakes. Trenches were built along a general area. Within, all the territory was declared a German reservation. Where Germans could upkeep their unique customs and "culture".
Does anyone have any good history / philosophy podcasts that aren't reddit tier? Also political podcasts would be cool
I see Dan Carlins Hardcore History shilled on reddit a lot because of how EPIC and SAVAGE the mongolians were.

So why ain'cha rich?
https://www.metaculus.com/questions/
Put your money where your mouth is and place a bet on what you think'll happen in the future. If you're right, you'll win money simply from your knowledge.
If you can't do this, then your claim about learning from history is bullshit and you're no better than an astrologist.
>>3297458
LEARNING FROM HISTORY IS FOR THOSE WHO DO NOT COMPREHEND THE DIRECTION OF FUTURE.
THE FUTURE IS NOT WRITTEN BY HISTORY, IT IS WRITTEN BY THE FUTURE HISTORY OF THE FUTURE.
IT IS PURILE, YOU ARE PURILE, YOUR THREAD IS PURILE, AND UNNECESSARY.
How did she do it? How did she go from a literal who whore to someone who fucked the most powerful navies at the time and gotten amnesty for most of her crew, while keeping the loot.
>>3297313
By being fictitious.
>>3297313
She probably had an insane charisma, it can happen to women sometimes if history is to be belived.
>>3297385
Charisma certainly is one of the reasons, but how did your run of the mill whore with no combat experience triumphed against the strongest navies at the time? Many have tried the same and ended hanged, beheaded or at the bottom of the sea.

Were we meant to leave Africa so we could return back to the motherland hundreds of thousands of years later, more advanced and stronger?
Is there a future for Africa? Or should we leave it alone for nature to keep?
If you were to establish a settlement, where and how would you go about doing it and who would you bring?
What's the plan folks
>>3297164
>Homo Sapiens get it on with Neanderthals, thus creating the whitey
All Eurasians have Neanderthal mixture, not just whites. Many groups have more. There is no evidence that the traces of Neanderthal or any other archaic human mixture contributed very much. This meme needs to die
>>3297164
>Is there a future for Africa? Or should we leave it alone for nature to keep?
Years of divide and conquer, bad borders, and every other form of colonial meddling has already wreaked all sorts of havoc along with medicine that has skyrocketed the birth rate. There is no way to "leave it alone for nature" now. If the Europeans never did that they did, things wood he better; they at least had systems that worked for them.

so now that lots of archaeological sites are poping up in the amazon jungle when it was tought there was nothing there. What could the next major find be?

In all seriousness how the fuck did the Soviets pull this off?
Didn't the Nazis have an advantage in both experience and technology?
urban battles are notoriously harsh,it was the focal point of the eastern front,with russia and germany throwing everything they have to there and rzhev
also german maneuver warfare was not much use in the ruined city,and the surrounding areas endured numerous assaults until Zhukov gathered Uranus and destroyed the 6th army
>>3297110
tldr botched supply lines, guerrilla warfare, reinforcements, and a healthy dose of pure LCK
>>3297110
The volga was a natural barrier, so they were able to stop the advance and the soviets were getting reiforcements of material from America and manpower from siberia. that was pretty much stalins plan all along, as the russians always do, to give ground until winter sets in and then come back with reinforcements
