How come we don't erect statues of great people anymore?
We do where I live, though the term "great" means "good at rugby league"

Western culture is dead.
"OY VEY!"
"das b raycis n shiet gib welfare"
"Sexist much?"
Has anyone else noticed how the concept of "a virtuous person" has been totally conflated with the idea of "a survivor under capitalism"?
Working hard, not blaming others, working on your faults, seizing the day, etc.
A person like this will become rich, and then enact policies that benefit themselves (and thus harm the poor). Which is a complete contradiction, since then people will call them "greedy" (which is supposed to be the opposite of a "virtuous person").
What is this insane doublethink? Are people just not willing to admit they are attempting to become egoists?

Not things that are exclusive to capitalism. It works like this under monarchy too faggot.
>Working hard, not blaming others, working on your faults, seizing the day
This is how successful people operate in any time period in history. Successful cavemen were doing this shit. You sound like a faggot OP
>if only the form of government was changed then maybe I wouldn't have to improve myself
it starts with the person in the mirror OP
Can I get a quick rundown on the Germans who remained in Czechoslovakia and Poland after the post-WWII expulsions?
Why did they stay?
How were they treated?
>>3183358
Unless they were rich, they were literally kicked out of their homes or executed. Many of the women and children were raped before execution
>>3183358
They assimilated
/sp/ here, I know of Czech athletes with German last names (pic related) who have Czech first names and most likely grew up speaking Czech
What is your opinion on alternate history hub?
>>3182956
Trash. Every vid is a wikipedia tier summary of what happened ending with him making a few vague "predictions" that amount to him verbally shrugging his shoulders. There's not point in making alternate history vids it you aren't going to take a little creative license or go more in-depth. Also i personally hate the art style he uses.
>>3182956
He won't do an alt-history scenario where the Anne Frank copypasta is real and that pisses me off
>>3182956
Why won't Cody do an alternate history where Bomber Harris turns into a giant g*rman eating anaconda?
Why did Cortez scuttle his own ships. Was he afraid of the Incan ironclads?
>>3182897
>Why did he burn his own bridges?
He feared the African bridge
>>3182897
He didn't want any of his men going home. And he used the materials from them to make the brigantines that absolutely raped the aztecs on the lake at tenochitlan.
He was impersonating Tariq bin Ziyad
Can it?
"Ethics" is a spook.
>>3182239
Nah
>>3182239
Ethics are gay so I'm not sure what this is even supposed to mean. If by that you mean not blowing ourselves away with nukes or sterilizing the earth with a bio weapon then yes our ethics can handle that just fine. If anything our ethics are too restrained.

Brainlet history thread!

>Thought the american civil war was fought between North America and South America
>Thought Japan and China were the same country but just named differently over time
>Thought Vikings came from the north pole because it's the only place with snow
>Thought that siege towers were works of fantasy and refused to believe that they existed
>Used to think countries were on different planets
>used to think ancient europe didnt have people of color
Do generations always hate the generations succeeding them, or do they actually get worse?

I am an Occitan troubadour c. 1100 AD
After a trip to Hispania to play for the court of the King of Castile, I return to Toulouse with a new song from of the Iberian peninsula.
>Tu, tu ères el iman y yo soy el métal, me voy acercando y voy armando el plan, solo con pensarlo se accéléra el pulso
>Ya, ya me esta gustando mas de lo normal, todos mis sentidos van pidiendo mas, esto hay que tomarlo sin nigun apuro
>DES
>PA
>CITO
How is the new tune percieved? Does the Count of Toulouse give me a promotion?

Tell me who the greatest warrior in history is /his/
Napoleon or Asian warlords collectively
>>3178808
>Gives multiple people as an answer
>Chooses Napoleon as one of those people
Napoleon was a fucking general not a warrior.
And be specific Jesus Christ.

Why didn't Gadaffi and Sadam didn't ask for russia and china protection before trying to drop the dollar?
Serious question.
>>3193803
Why would those countries want to help shitty Arab states they have no national interest? Also in 2003 neither Russia, nor China had capabilities to do anything against America.
>>3194074
then why iran hasn't been invaded by the US since the iranian revolution?
>>3194083
Because it's not a real enemybor threat to anyone and serves better as an eternal scapegoat.
