Is the trinity idolatry? You can say it isn't because it's just different faces of God but isn't that what Hinduism also sees it as?

idolatry is worshipping statues or images, the trinity is a theological concept

You can be polytheistic and not idolatrous. But the Trinity is not polytheist, and the Icons of worship are not idols.

Idols are prayed to, icons help men empathize with the torture Christ endured. When you look at the Crucifix, you put yourself there and are forced to ask yourself whether you'd be one of those holy few who wept at his feet or one of the many who defied and called out for his death.
It's all very clear and Holy.

People like Thomas Mann warned about the Nazis. People didn't listen and the world suffered the consequences. After the war Mann was celebrated as a hero.

People like Joseph McCarthy warned against a possible communist surge in the USA. This time many people and the government listened and cracked down on anyone suspected of aiding a commie takeover. McCarthy of course went down in history as a paranoid lunatic: he got people worked up over the communist threat and got innocent people persecuted for no reason, as it turned out, the American communists never came close to causing any significant harm.

However, it is entirely possible that that McCarthy's efforts were the very reason the communists never got to do any real damage in America. We may never know what would have happened if those measures were never taken. Maybe the price for stopping an evil before it causes any serious harm is that you will be remembered as a villain.

Is there any historical figure who stopped a great future threat in it's infancy and became heroes from it?

McCarthy was a loudmouth alcoholic retard who got taken down in the time when entire USA was completely anti-communist. That should tell you how retarded and idiotic he was.

>>3342499
McCarthy did some wuestionable shit on his own to ascend the ladder of power but his end goal was justified and his methods, even at paranoid lengths at times, had pretty accurate results.
However he is smeared because, you know, commies in the media and the left's """moral high ground"""".
Truth is that he ultimately failed and all this was a fiasco because leftists infiltrated every aspect of western society and are the generally accepted 'good' guys in media and politics

Let's say you are offered an obligation;
You have to live in one of two societies:
A totalitarian society
or
An anarchist society
Which one do you pick?
The anarchist society isn't some anarcho-X society, it won't be like Catalonia or anything, it's just going to be straight up anarchy, total soical atrophy.

Really hate how Communists, Socialists, and various other Leftist groups try to get everyone that is LGBT into their group.
Newer economic theory is better, but annoyingly much less widespread. The Communist Manifesto is funny, but entirely baseless.

Is technology making gender roles obsolete?

The traditional male-female gender roles emerged not out of morality, but out of necessity. It was absoluetely essential to the survival of the group that the male muscles were used to do the hard labour and defend the group from foreign invaders, while the females did the lighter work, as well as nurturing and raising the children.

Due to industrialisation the muscles are not really needed anymore. Most of the hard work is done by robots already, and even military is in the process of being largely done by drones. This leads to women being able to do basically every job men do, and thus to much more independence and freedom for them. This results in a labour market, where most people work in a workplace that is gender-mixed. There are tendencies that women rather go into social jobs while men tend to go into STEM jobs, but those differences are statistically much lower than most people think. Most workplaces are gender-mixed.

Then there is also a biological reason why gender roles emerged the way they did, that is the role Sex played. A woman can get pregnant from Sex, while a man can't. This results into women being very cautios and picky with whom they sleep, because they might end up pregnant, Meanwhile Men tried to sleep with as many women as possible, because it had no consequences for them and Sex is fun. This is where the traditional image comes from that a man is the one that should conquer the woman, and a man that sleeps with a lot of women is regarded highly. Meanwhile women are supposed to be picky, which is why a woman that sleeps with everyone is seen as cheap, a slut, and basically failing her role.
However, with the invention of reliable perception methods this biological reason does no longer exist. A woman now can also have sex without having biological consequences, so she now can have sex just for fun, just like men did all these millenias.

Yes, which is why trannies are retarded, they think gender roles SHOULD exist and you should just be able to change your sex, rather than just abolishing gender roles entirely.

Stalemate on the Western Front. France collapses to mutiny (the massive influx of fresh American soldiers not only added manpower but helped French morale) while Germany is on the brink of starvation from the British blockade, at least until Ukrainian grain arrives. Britain is left fairly unscathed.

Chances are you have German hegemony in Europe, a communist France, and Italy/Austria-Hungary on the brink of collapse, while Britain has taken the Levant/Mesopotamia from the Ottomans and has also annexed Germany's colonies in Africa.

Let's have a proper historical discussion about whether the Holodomor (Ukrainian part) was a genocide.

My understanding is that a lot of historians think it was not and was just a part of the famine caused by collectivization policies. Some other modern historians claim it was part of a deliberate genocide attempt by Stalin against Ukrainians.

Keep the shitposting to the minimum, lads, if someone thinks it wasn't a genocide it doesn't mean they are a tankie or commie or defending Stalin or they think the entire famine was "good" or didn't happen. If someone takes the opposite position and thinks it was a genocide it doesn't mean they are a /pol/tard.

Pic is not related it's just some random Chinese slut.

How do you traditionally spell Czar, or is it Tsar? Tell me /his/.

Tsar is straight from Russian.

Czar comes from Caesar.

Tsar is right spelling.
>>
>>3342039

Translating Russian to English isn't an exact science. You just spell it however you think makes the most sense phonetically. No matter how you spell it, "Czar" or "Tsar" it is a essentially "Caesar" but with a Russian accent.
>>
For me it's Tsaar, the best way to spell it
