Franks were a German tribe, plus I didn't say he was German, I said he united the German people
Why do people think I'm trolling when I say I want an absolute monarchy back? Why do faggots think liberalism is the ONLY answer? Do you all think liberalism is the only answer? Why?
>>2987877
because you could endup with Obama or George Bush for a whole lifetime
its terrible
Why do you think that people considering absolute monarchy retarded means they think the only answer is liberalism?
What's wrong with constitutional monarchy? And remember not to go full retard and think that every constitutional monarchy means the monarch is some powerless figurehead, it just means there is a certain fundamental system of laws that the monarch is not above.

End this shitty meme, nobles/aristocrats or another claimant would depose the ruler if he was bad.
So.. Were monks completely helpless against invaders like Vikangz and other fags raiding them or did they defend their monasteries? Surely they weren't going to let some oogabooga niggers get away with all that loot.
>>2987794
This what the Irish did to protect themselves and their valuables.
>>2987794
Most of the time the monasteries themselves were defenseless and at most the monks would hide/flee/barricade or hope their local lord would come save their asses.
Some monks took up the sword but this was rare.
When a kingdom fell in the Medieval Ages, religious centers were some of the first places to get pillaged, and their inhabitants usually being slaughtered is guaranteed.

Historically, speaking, is the current dynamic between urbanites and their dogs notably different than past periods? As someone who's never owned a dog for more than two weeks, I find it so bizarre that people across all online platforms turn into sjws when it comes to dogs, especially on 4chan. Those who express otherwise are ironically branded as edgy contrarians or even have their posts deleted by mods.
On the other hand, I've heard accounts of people in rural America who still treat dogs like other animals and wouldn't even consider letting them inside the house. Is this level of elevation of dogs a modern class trend or has it always existed in certain parts?

>turn into sjws when it comes to dogs
What the ever-loving fuck are you talking about?
>>2987828
/b/ is famously unforgiving towards animal abusers. Think Dusty the Cat.
>>2987844
But how does that make them SJWs? All sane people with functioning moral compasses are dismayed by the needless infliction of suffering on animals.
Most young people think they know better than old people, all old people were young once and most think they used to be full of shit, therfore most young people know less than old people. Correct?
Why do you think your rambling thoughts are worthy of a thread?

That's for me to know and you to find out.
Worthy of a thread... get a load of this fag.

goDAMN is that its massive T-Rex dick?
We can talk quantum philosophy here too, right? Why is there so much focus on the determinism/indeterminism question as it pertains to quantum mechanics but not on what is clearly the far more consequential locality/nonlocality debate? The empirical failure of local realism is the most profound discovery we have ever made and yet few people discuss it.
Undermining the principle of local causality undermines the physics's Standard Model. The alternatives are fatalism or many worlds. What is the palatable answer here?
>>2987503
>philosophy
Shit son, talking about semantics don't change shit.
>>2987528
This.
Also this really isn't the right board for the philosophy of physics and metaphysics in an advanced sense.
What's so philosophical about atoms moving at speeds so fast that they appear to be teleporting and matter being created out of nothing, only to be destroyed because anti-matter appears out of nothing to cancel it out?
Just watched Downfall (Der Untergang) and I'm fucking depressed
Can anyone cheer me up with history facts or movies or anything really?

Kill yourself. Germans are barbarians who ruin everything.

No, because that creates identity and identity is retarded.

Are men historically disposable compared to women?
In all sort of statistics, males are overrepresented. Suicides, drugs, delinquency. As a teacher, it's quite clear dropouts are most of the time males. Yet no one treat those stats as if there is a huge problem with males, like it's expected for males to be in those conditions.
>>2986955
yes, men are disposable and women cry about not being allowed to do art in renaissance italy. It will always be like this
>>2986955
significantly more women attempt suicide than me
>>2986955
In most of history, death in childbirth ensured that even with everything else combined, women on average died younger than men. Women, quite brutally, weren't disposable, as given the rates of both maternal and infant mortality, it was often hard to keep above replacement level, especially for urban populations. They were necessary as breeding machines.

>>2986487
I'm more disappointed that we don't know more about pre-Christian Celtic religion
I'm just interested in pre-Christian Slavs in general.
We can try by way of comparative mythology.
Slavic Perun = Baltic Perkunas = Vedic Parjanya = Indra = Thor

I need a Christian redpill.
No shitposting.
>>2985878
Christianity as we know it today is far more of a product of Paul's theology than anything Jesus said or did. Also, Paul is pretty much a liar, especially where his credentials concerning Judaism/Phariseeism are concerned.
So, in other words, 90% of Christianity comes not from God, but from a shitty con artist.

I can give you the Perennial Philosophy version.
