Yes. They're litterally sacks with arms attached. The austerity patterns are even worse.

Yes. I'm British and have always though they looked dogshit, unprofessional, and about as intimidating as a mouse. They look like some old green carpets stapled together.

US and German WW2 uniforms were far superior.

The shorts kinda ruin it.

P.S I'm not asking if their is any truth to Wonder Woman

but if their is any truth to the historicity of the Amazons?

The Scythians had female warriors

>>2926428
There were female warriors as far back as antiquity with the ancient steppe tribes having women participate in martial culture. However, matriarchal martial societies are rare and disputed because biologically and logically they would have been defeated by men who have more muscle mass, height. And would not be crippled for 9+ months raising a kid.

No. Holocaust was high irrational and diverted resources away from the front.

Not always. Sometimes people are too focused on crimes and not give enough attention to the war itself. Imagine if Hitler used resources to fight Stalin instead of committing holocaust of Slavic people.

no
It depends on the situation
Sacking a city that does not surrender is acceptable as it deters others from holding out, sacking a city that surrenders is stupid as it deters others from surrendering.
This is one reason the germans lost ww2, by sacking every city they could get their hands on

Wut did they mean by this?

I've spent a lot of time thinking about how I would set up a postal system in ancient Rome, with ancient Roman technology

I'm thinking

>stamps require mass printing, so you just pay at the counter so that the guy puts your letter in the box
>every major city has a postal office that knows peoples addresses well enough to deliver letters, and contains a storefront where people drop off letters and pay for postage
>post offices have simple to-and-from courier services connecting to a provincial sorting center
>provincial sorting centers have simple to-and-from mail routes to the three or four nearest capitals
>a piece of mail from, say, Britannia to Alexandria would be forwarded east from provincial center to provincial center
>each provincial center would have a set list of all the other provincial centers, and which route to put mail on for every given region, (eg. the letter from Britain to Alexandria automatically gets placed on the Rome to Dacia wagon route)
>postage is determined by the number of hops
>auditors compare the number of letters being mailed and the number of coins showing up, to make sure nobody is getting free mail, stealing from the till, or losing people's letters
>optional pigeon service to be introduced eventually for VIPs and government mail

Does anyone else have this form of autism?

Makes TONS of sense. That's why all the USSR backed states like Venezuela and Cuba are flourishing today.

Posting other Eastern fashions as comparison.
Turkish woman of a Harem. I will caution this was made during the period of the orientalist rage in Europe so many of the works were exaggerations/ over dramatic views of harem life.

Anyone here in 20th century vintage clothing? Anyone a collector?

Here's a pre-ww1 jacket. I'd suspect it's an early 1900s jacket.

Things of interest:
>Heavy fabric which is not like modern lighter weight fabrics.
>Three button jacket with small lapels.
>Sack jacket which lacks darts in the front.
>Slanted breast pocket which is a trait of Edwardian era jackets.

But despite its age I think the average non-fashion conscious person would probably view it as a normal jacket, assuming you don't try to dress it up in an Edwardian way. I think someone mentioned last thread how the suit hasn't changed much and it's mostly true. There's still some more out there designs that have more "sporty elements" that call back to outdoor hunting events but those are seldom seen past the first half of the 20th century and post-1970s.
It's a old jacket from Hickey & Freeman from the Rochester, NY factory. This is pretty much an old jacket from modern day Hickey-Freeman.

Christianity keeps driving anyone with a semblance of critical thought away.
You have to be lying to yourself or willingly retarded to be a Christian.
>dude its metaphorical LMAO
no
at best you could just view the Bible as a moderately ok book of ethics but nothing else.

Christianity (and as a consequence, Judaism) is the most studied and criticized religion in all of human history.

>>2928073
But I'm talking about ancient Israelite, not some fedora's modern shitpost against the church.

Yahweh was the war god of the Canaanite pantheon. Moses (an Egyptian) brought monotheism to Canaan, and equated his one god with Yahweh. The Canaanites who converted top the new religion became the Jews.

It was only a dream

Conservatives buthurt about money.
It's ironic that they fueled a generation of passion just to beat communism at chess and drop the whole thing once it use for propaganda had been depleted.

An emphasis on space investment would get my vote instantly, but politicians fail to realize this.

Diversity happened.

Oy vey can't let those non-whites starving here on earth while you go out into space you evil white supremacists.
