Liberalism has no use for violence and brute force, that is the domain of dangerous far left and far right extremist radicals.

>>2936174
Because liberalism became the dominant ideology, there is no more need to smash things and whip out the guillotines like during the days of monarchism

>>2936067
The concept was dumb from the start.

I dunno, they're national football team was pretty good.

Tito died.

>Metatron

You take that back right now.

>>2936095
Why? He's usually pretty good about citing source and whatnot.

Sunni Islam vs Shia Islam.

NATO political orbit vs. Russia/China political orbit.

Sand nigger vs sand nigger.

is it really hard to figure out..?

They've despised each other for hundreds of years, currently Saudis are the Sunni leaders and Iran is the Shia leader. Even ordinary members don't like the other group. Then you combine the proxy war currently going on with the west/saudis and russia/iran

There's at least one book claiming that most of history is due to dumb luck and random chance. I don't buy that theory, but I'd like to read the book.

Are you retarded? Sage

I'm not saying I would LIKE them to win I'm just trying to imagine alternate history. Don't get so pissy about it.

>>2935637
Off the top of my head, History of Rome, and History of Byzantium come to mind

Dan carlins hardcore history is decent but not my favorite

History of Rome
History of Byzantium
And the British history podcast are all exceptional

>>2935646
Those are the most popular two by far.
>History of Britain
>Fall of Rome Podcast (probably one of the best I've ever heard)
>12 Byzantine Emperors
>History of Ancient Greece (annoying voice but pretty solid discussion)
>The Trojan War (not really history, but good either way)
A few others get mentioned/recommended by HoByz: History of Iran and History of Iran, but I haven't listened to them so can't vouch.

>>2935603
The "Wild West" was actually quite mild t-b-h. Rampant gunfighting and Indian raids weren't part of daily life.

>>2935603
Its hot
Its dry
Everyone just steals and rapes
Filled now with fundamentalists and swarthy Mexicans
Its basically American Arabia

>>2935610
There were very, very, very few Mexicans in the US before the 1960s change in immigration law. I will never understand this meme that America has always had a giant Mexican population.

not really i would see inteligent people more as being agnostic or just not sure

atheist always come across as just a wee bit over or under avarage intelegence but think themselves to be a lot higher on the ladder

no

take the view of an atheist

people who believe in religion have been raised to so
those who have distanced themselves later on have developed said distance through the way they were raised + the influence of their environment

BUT: simple-minded people have it easier accepting religion

>>2935551
Just a correlation. I've met both atheists and religious person that are smart.

CLEAN

YOUR

I believe he is an intelligent person,
but I think his popularity outweighs the merit of his thought and is ill-gotten in a manner similar to Sam Harris.

Also, I disagree with the conclusions drawn in Maps of Meaning because I find the implicit metaphysics overly anthropocentric which I consider an incomplete Notion.

ez

Freddy 'The fuck Austrian fags, Silesia is mine" Hohenzollern is up there

>>2935347

Who?

How were they exploited? The worst thing I can think of is Japanese-Americans fighting while their families were inside internment camps.

>>2935216
Yes?
Minorities did fuck all during WWII

Only 700 African-Americans died

>>2935216
African Americans were almost banned from frontline service in Europe and the Pacific, so I don't see how it effected the war effort. Guess they made some pretty sick soul food as cooks though

>>2935197
High beer consumption, chemical substances in the used hops act a oestrogen like hormons, the whole society gets girlish.

Modern German culture or before Nazism German culture?

Because after Nazis came to power, romanticism and idealism of Germanic soul ceased to exist.

>>2935197

No.
