Who would you rather save, /his/? Sophie Scholl or Anne Frank?

>saving women
What am I a cuck
Rosa Luxemburg :^)
Sophie, she's a woman.

Any good book for history in general?
>>3012219
The Bible.
Genesis to Nehemiah covers 4000~500 BC.
I want to see civilisation crash.
I live in one of the wealthiest countries in the world and enjoy some of the highest standards of living in human history yet I have a desire to see it all burn down. Just watch as society reaches its breaking point and the system collapses in on itself.
I know I'd regret it if it actually happens and given the option to start it, I couldn't do it but I constantly imagine it happening in my head.
Who else feels this way? Is there a word for it?
Why don't you just go somewhere where it crashed already?
Do you have any T*rk heritage?
You're living during the fall of western civilization as we know it.
Why didn't the Byzantines just conquer all those small muslim duchies?
Did they fear the Turkish warrior?
>>3033686
they literally feared the turkish warrior
they wouldn't beg pope for help otherwise
>>3033686
Byzantines were tiring themselves apart in a series of civil strife.
>>3033686
BECAUSE THEY COULD NOT —THEY LACKED THE SPIRITUAL CAPABILITY.
THE FACT THAT THAT PSEUDOEMPIRE LASTED FOR SO LONG IS ASTOUNDING.
Interwar Period
>couple of random guys able to start political movements, and, within a decade, control the entire country
Now
>need millions of dollars to even participate in politics outside of voting
>major parties control pretty much all aspects of government and can strangle opposition parties in the crip
What the fuck happened?
Just wait until the inevitable economic collapse when all the money of those parties is rendered worthless.

Media grip on society.
>>3033488
Capitalism.
Also Hitler and Mussolini weren't exactly "random". Mussolini was involved in politics and journalism far before WW1 and Hitler was a snitch for secret police before he entered DAP.
Both of them had financiers, they didn't rise to power from thin air.
Why did the European gentiles allow the jews to dominate their banking sectors? Did they fear the Ashkenazi warrior?
>>3033469
it was considered a dirty practice by christians at the time
>>3033617
It still is.
>>3033469
Jews couldn't own property, thus could be safely counted on to accrue power but be unable to use it against landowners.
For instance, commonly used as middle class types to keep peasants in line
Why did it take the Romans until the 4th century to realise that getting your nose cut off is a bad thing
>>3033349
M*diterraneans are retarded. It took centuries for enough superior nordic blood to improve the average Roman IQ.
late roman helmets give me eyesores
>>3033349
No need to cover your face when running away from the battlefield
Memes aside is it true that turks in western Anatolia have a lot of greek and slavic admixture? Was this caused by anything specifically? I know about janissaries and shit but I remember reading that they weren't allowed to intermarry.
>>3032652
Yes, Turks are basically white as snow except the Kurds who are not related to Turks having come from Pakistan.
>>3032652
They're mainly the same Anatolians that have been there forever.
>>3032652
Turks are basically anatolians with turkish admixture
The European civil war...
The great catastrophe...
A top-3 most significant geopolitical event of modernity (the other two being the rise of Asia and the development of nuclear weapon systems)...
Almost no matter how much importance is given to World War One, its importance is STILL underestimated. The fire that began in August 1914 prevented old Europe from transitioning civilly into some version of modernity and instead led to the rise of fascism and communism, a development that killed perhaps more than 100 million people.
The entire period from 1914 to 1980 or so must be seen, in some sense as a single continuous disaster — oneincluding the two great wars and the periods of totalitarian collectivist butchery in Nazi-occupied Europe, the USSR, China, Korea, Cambodia, Vietnam, and other places. World War 2 was just the period of greatest military activity in this span... the butchery itself continued and only tapered out slowly as both the Soviet and Asian communist totalitarianisms eventually burned out and began to liberalize.
>>3032589
Actually, I should say, the Eurasian civil war.
OP, you are not as smart as you think you are and your thread is shit.
>>3032601
I'm just pointing out that there's not enough analysis on this board of this entire period as one continuous event.
Was it real?
Yes, you retard.

No, Stanley Kubrick directed that '''''moon landing'''''
So what do I do now that I am spookless?
I was told "enlightened intelligence" would make me euphoric, that purging superstition would help me focus on what really matters, but that is not the case. I have no motivation to do anything because nothing matters in the end and all that's coming is death. I can't let go and enjoy anything without the nagging thought that nothing has value or meaning.
I used to be a happy go lucky whippersnapper who took what he could get and didn't lament what he couldn't, who tried to make something fun out of everything and had all sorts of goals and drives, now I am a jaded defeatist fatalistic nihilist. At least when I cared about bullshit I cared about something, now I don't care about anything except the horrors of reality which are impossible to avoid.
Life is bending over backwards to impress normies only to fail to meet their standards and be humiliated anyway. Even if I put in a herculean effort I will never achieve much more than a wage a bit above minimum and a few nerdy friends to share feels with and maybe a chubby gf who had to settle for me and will probably leave me for some random reason, I will never be as successful as people who put in a herculean effort AND were introduced to coding when they were 13 then were in college the cusp of the dotcom boom or something and were free from mental illness and acclimatized to socializing from an early age. The chances of me becoming a scientist and achieving biological immortality are minute to the point it makes me question whether that might be a spook and I would be wasting my only life dedicating myself to it. I am terrified of waking up alone one day and seeing a lonely old guy in the mirror, I unironically would welcome death before that point.

Kids, this is what happens when you take forced memes from /his/ and /r/atheism/ too seriously.
>>3032434
If this is all just a meme, what isn't a meme?
>>3032416
You can avoid that by not settling down with someone you don't like
You can avoid that by making more friends
Ever thought about that?
When should one forgive?
Always
Never

Why are British houses much better than Spain?
>>3032149
What the fuck is this random thread?
Not history, not humanities, begging the question fallacy, muh tribe better than ur tribe faggotry, overall pure garbage.
Don't do that.
My dick is better than Hungary.
>>3032149
also why are British houses so aesthetic?
Do germanic and celtic europeans only have blue eyes because of indoeuropeans or other foreign invaders?
Did north european preIE peoples such as otsi and the megalith builders look like meds and arabs?
>>3032030
Isn't it the other way around? Yamna people had brown eyes.
>>3032030
>those racial descriptions
thanks for the laugh /pol/
>>3032030
Original Europeans - dark skin, light eyes
Indo-European Niggers - light skin, dark eyes
Can we talk about the falsified history of Transylvania?
>>3032003
Yes, let's.
There aren't any vampires to speak of at all.
>>3032010
And everything was built by either magyars or germans.
>>3032016
Yeah, when I went to Budapest I was surprised how many people are genuinely angry about Transylvania and how many hate Romania because of it. Is their a secessionist movement in Romania? Are there parties in Hungary that call for its return?
