There were communists as high as the presidential cabinet. He was completely justified. I don't have the numbers onhand because I'm traveling, but modern investigations proved that he was correct a vast majority of the time with his accusations.

Schools in the US teach him as an extrajudicial monster only looking for power.

Arresting people for being communist violates their constitutional right to free speech. the amount of commuists he actually found or not, and whever he was just doing it because he wanted power or not is irrelevent. It's simply unconstituional.

because men got emasculated by jewish enlightenment era! hahahaha, I'm just kidding, although that is something /pol/ would say.

fashions change all the time for no particular reason at all, the trend just dies out. sort of like memes.

Thank you for your comment. I'm also wondering from a historical reenacting standpoint whether facial hair other than sideburns, a mustache, or stubble would sometimes be justified. Would, for example, anyone deliberately grow a beard, goatee, or other unusual facial hairstyle in that era? Was anyone known for doing that, that has a portrait or other image in their likeness?

because it was shipping ammunition, the eternal anglo was the first terrorist nation

>>3272204
no, that would be france

If I'm not mistaken they had a closed water policy. They didn't want anyone in those Waters

Did the Etruscans invent the Mexican sombrero looking hat, or did a civilization that preceded them do it first? I think the Etruscans have left many descendants in Italy, today, probably most of the concentrated around Tuscany itself.

>>3272265
the Sarmatians were superior though

>>3272114
No that just integrated into the Roman population. Romans still referred to some people in Tuscany as Etruscan during the fall of the republic

what a weak man

It's a cultural Christian atheist.

>>3271973
That's what the word terrible means. It retains that sense often, especially in writing. The popular sense derives from that. It's a similar case for awful.

>>3272007
Does awful mean "creates awe"?

Boyars, russian nobles were in charge during his childhood years and they bullied him forcing him to be their cupbearer while they were ruling in his name because he was orphan.

>Conversions gradually transforming Orthodox Christianity

>More than 70 percent of the roughly 75,000 Antiochian Orthodox Christians in the United States are converts. The Orthodox Church in America, with roots in Moscow and about 85,000 adherents, reports a 50 percent figure. In Greek Orthodox Christianity, by far the largest branch in the United States with almost 480,000 members, it's about 25 percent.

>"We have these ethnic titles in our names, but they refer to where our hierarchies reside," Gilbert says. "None of these [jurisdictions] believes the church is for Greeks or Russians or Serbs. It's a church for humans."

>The strength of Orthodox Christianity— also known as Eastern Christianity, Eastern Orthodoxy or Greek Orthodoxy — stems from the conviction that its traditions are the same as those practiced by Jesus' original followers, the 12 apostles, and the theologians who codified those practices in their writings over the first few centuries after his death.

pfft

If you're gonna demand us to explain why you should start by explaining your own point.

>>3271838
You literally just ignored your own point

>>3271875
Christianity- Faith in Jesus alone saves. Faith in works is blasphemy
Catholicism- Faith in Jesus plus certain works like mass and baptism saves. Faith alone is blasphemy
Islam- having more good works than bad works saves. Faith in Jesus is blasphemy

Peninsulas aren't bad but islands are better. Just look at Britain or Japan for example.

>Substance Dualism
Substance Dualism is laughed at nowadays.

The idea of a ghost in the machine absurd giving the interactions of mind and brain. Destroy a part of the brain and you destroy conscious mechanisms. If the mind were like a ghost piloting the machine then the ghost should remain intact whether the machine is damaged.

However, people take this to imply materialism/physicalism: that we are nothing more than our physical makeup and our mind is either housed in our brains (almost like dualism) or is identical to our brains and/or its functions. This is a non-sequitur. This only implies that substance dualism is false.

More to come on materialism/physicalism (from here on known as physicalism)

>Physicalism
Physicalism suggests that all of reality is composed of matter or the physical, which is supposed to be non-mental and exists independently of consciousness (objective). However, consciousness exists (subjective). We know consciousness exists more certainly than anything at all. Even if you're skeptical about whether you're in the matrix or if this is a dream, you're still aware that you're aware in each scenario. No matter what you're still conscious, this you definitely know for sure if there is anything that can be said to be known for sure. However, this is impossible if all of reality is supposed to be physical, which is non-mental. If all is non-mental how can there be the mental? This is where reductionism fails on its face given the hard problem of consciousness.

From here the only way out for the physicalist is to a) deny consciousness, which is simply contradictory given we are most certain about the awareness of our awareness more than anything in our perceptions or ideas or b) embrace non-reductive physicalism.

However, this cannot work as noted by Jaegwon Kim in the Exclusion Problem. You will either end up lapsing right back into a substance dualism or you will fail to account for mental causation and you're right back to the mind-body problem of substance dualism all over again.

Reductive and non-reductive physicalism fail.

>Towards an Immaterial Monism
Idealism works as a perfect alternative to Substance Dualism and Physicalism. Idealism embraces the reality of consciousness without trying to reduce it, thus avoiding the hard problem of consciousness altogether, and embraces a non-physicalist monism which faces no exclusion problem whatsoever so there's no issue of mental causation. No mind-body problem, and no skeptical problems if all of reality is consciousness. This works as a perfect ontology and epistemology and could provide fertile ground for a meta-ethics given morality seems tied to conscious agents most of all rather than non-conscious entities

They believed them to be spies that foreshadowed an invasion. Which was probably correct since that was a pretty common mongol modus operandi.

Also this dude is Nader Shah and doesn't have much to do with the subject besides being a timur fanboy

>>3271757
They probably didn't, and it just made for a good moral story so it became the official reason why things happened. It's not as if the Mongols refused to invade anyone else because their ambassadors were treated well.
