After arguing with an Afroautist about how brain damaged you have to be to believe the shit that Afrocentrists spill, the spastic said that the Renaissance was started and facilitated by Africans -- supposedly due to the fact Africans preserved Ancient European literature.

Is there any evidence that this claim is even remotely correct?

Odanism is an offshoot of asatru in general.
Odalism is Varg's religion-philosophy. It's basically a rationalistic/secular version of the ancient norse religion compiled from his own speculation combined with anarcho primitivism and a strong adherence to GAIA theory

where are the true thinkers.jpg
330KB, 455x550px
I had three ideas this evening for brilliant discussions but for each and every one, there were absolutely no boards where my ideas fit nor was there any interest or responses other that a few who were grandstanding.

My point is this. Philosophers. Humanities fans. Nobody is seeking to learn, in my opinion...just to advocate a particular idea or serve some other agenda or psychological need in their posts. People want a show...usually a shit show. And, most importantly, I'm not upset and only want to ask this. What does this imply about where we're at as a species? What does it imply about this site if anything? Is there really such a thing as an open forum for real critical and original thinking with zero to minimum sophmoricism..term coined...but is there? I seriously doubt it. And where are the truly great thinkers of our time? I don't mean Elon Musk or any of that type. I mean the philosophers and critical thinkers who think new thoughts and advance the ball for humanity in our time? Or is that not going to be a thing anymore? Ever.

Calm down alot people enjoy learning and change positions based on new information. The issue is that loud annoying people are much better at provoking a response. Also, smarter threads can be more intimidating because most rightfully feel like they have little to contribute. And honestly i dont the proportion of thinkers in the world is less now than before considering all the free time people have.
>>
>>3014090
There is a question of how do you create an open forum which promotes interesting and thoughtful conversation. The major issue that most forums face is the methods through which discussions are brought to the front page. They all tend to favor echo chanmbers or obvious provocation. Moderation is dificult because it is easy to from no moderation at all to killing whole conversation topics.

Of course this thread will have zero views since I chose not to deliver the hook in 132 characters or less. I just randomly dropped it from 160 on behalf of mankind as a symbolic homage to the trajectory of mankind as a species. My focus is on truth and not about having some kind of social support group for one particular flavor of ism we all want to revisit again and again. Don't worry about it anons. Just laugh it off and proceed as you were. I'm just some crazy guy and you won't ever find yourself reflecting back on any of the several indictments made in these two comments. I'm done here. You're on your own.

My dad talked about eating at the finest restaurants and buying a car just from going fishing during the summer and being a NEET for the rest of the year. His alternative was moving to Sarajevo to work in a kiosk with a complimentary free commie bloc apartment.

>handle a sword correctly
It depends on the type of sword. A rapier is handled differently than an arming sword, and both are held differently than a longsword.

As for youtube channels I really don't know. I'd just look up how to handle a _____ sword.

Judaism is a religion, buddy. Pic related is a Native American Jewess reclaiming Judea & Samaria for the Jewish people. Quite ironic isn't it? Israel has Native American Jewish Kahanist women who want to throw out all the Arabs. Quite inspiring.

I was told I look Celtic.

What are the physical characteristics of the Celts?

The physical charachterestics of celts were in fact the physical charachterestics of aquitanians, the pre-celtic inhabitants of British islanbds and western europe that were celtified by celtic settlers.Those charachterestics were: tall, dolichocephalics or mesocephalics, usually had long convex nose, most of them had medium brown hair, however a big part of them had light hair (30%-35% of them had light brown, blond and red hair) and black hair, although a little rare, they were not unknown.

proto-celts are not important since they were racially assimilated by aquitanians very early (and culturally aquitanians were assimilated by proto-celts), however, since on the one hand they were IE, on the other hand belonged to southern IE subgroup,I suppose they were possibly a darker version of baltic racial type (since today many scientists claim that the phenotype of proto-IE was baltic.
