Is Agent Orange considered a chemical weapon? If not, why not? If so, why was the US able to get away with using it?
It's a weapon against trees. They didn't realize it harms humans though as is evident by American soldiers with mysterious symptoms after the war.

Disgusting burger DINDU NUFFIN, and I'm a fucking burger.
>The use of Agent Orange as a chemical weapon has left tangible, long-term impacts upon the Vietnamese people that live in Vietnam as well as those who fled in the mass exodus from 1978 to the early 1990s. Hindsight corrective studies indicate that previous estimates of Agent Orange exposure were biased by government intervention and under-guessing, such that current estimates for dioxin release are almost double those previously predicted.[3] Census data indicates that the United States military directly sprayed upon millions of Vietnamese during strategic Agent Orange use.[3] The effects of Agent Orange on the Vietnamese range from a variety of health effects, ecological effects, and sociopolitical effects.

>The aftermath of the use of Agent Orange in Vietnam resulted in massive legal consequences. The United Nations ratified Resolution 31/72 and the Environmental Modification Convention. Lawsuits filed on behalf of veterans as well as Vietnamese veterans sought compensation for damages.

When did leaders/rulers stop personally leading their armies into battle or directly being involved in war stuff?
I was thinking about the most recent leader I can think of that personally led their armies into battle, and the most recent I could think of was Napoleon.
How come this isn't a thing anymore? It seems like for thousands of years the militaristic ability of a leader was the primary thing they were measured by, but at some point it seems like it stopped being a thing.

Can we have a casual church thread this Sunday? There's no topic, just light discussion about sermons, scripture reading, and prayer requests.
What did you guys think about the shack? Not exactly the gospel message, but there's a lot of overlap. It discusses some important issues such as freedom of the will, the question of evil and theodicy at an entry level, but then it falls back to feelgood-ism. It also hints at the heresy of universal salvation. I liked the Asian chick she was a qt. I'd like the fat black woman to be my stepmom... And the Jesus guy looked like he would allahuackbar the whole place at any minute. Hardly someone you would feel comfortable being around.

Wouldn't the truest form of being nihilist be optimism and positivity in the face of this world's unconquerable injustices?
Why do you guys claim to be nihilist, and then waste hours of your life RPing a scenario of non-white races being NPCs and multiculturalism being some boogeyman?
Go outside.
Talk to different people.
Enjoy life.
I agree with the mindset this question came from.But the truest form (or rater the most extreme form), sinch there is a downside) is a sword that cuts on two sides.
In reality. both the extreme forms, possitive worldview and negative occur.,
optimism and positivity in the face of unconsquarable injustices, like Nietzsche described in a way, was just Nietzsches reality formed in his own time, a reality that became frustrated I think and that lost grip on his personal reality with the general reality , namely society, the world, public sphere etc, the other, dealing with the other in public or private).
So the question is not so simple as that. Since you guys is a nihilistic term in itself, it is empty. Since it is empty, you can't really know the totality of that concept. Humans are to divers to be categorized as just you guys.
The same goes for Nihilistic. A true nihilist would never call him self a nihilist since the term nihilist is empty. It is a paradox that only can be solved if you accept that people care in a sense about injustice. People care about injustice, probabely more if directly confronted with it, but in the end people care also about themselves. You see, already complex.
Because it would bring an other phlosophic question to mind, namely if people are egocentric. And again, humans are divers so it is not at all a a simple question. Yes, they can be. But they have also shown they can be altruistic.
Which leads to the question, can you be truelly altruistic etc etc etc. It can truelly go on and on.
Now History does alot of things, but it doesn't show us THE truth. It shows a truth.
Nietsches truth, Napopleons truth, the cavemans 'truth', persian, chinese, governments, religious, Rankes truth, heidegger, voltaire,confuscius, mao's, truth (I could keep going)
The only claiming anything here is you. You asked this question. Now I am only making this personal, because you made it personal. But it is not an attack on the person.
1/2
Clearly you care about stuff, races (or rather ethnicity cause you got a german sheppard and goldenretriever, the mate and make dogs. Dogs is the race, just as humans is one race with different ethnicities (not per se better or worse, just different)
Multiculuralism, (is a tricky one, the definition of culture is way off)
The solution is too simpliistic for a complex phenomenon as injustice.
If just saying it, would suffice, than nietsche would be the suppreme hero of mankind.
Doesn't mean you shouldn't ask questions about things you don't quite understand. Or about things that seem to be never understood.
Anyway, that was just a piece of my mind. Hope you didn't take it too personal :), as the intent was to challenge my own mind. So...thanks for that and good day
anyone who thinks nihilism isn't about optimism never read Nietzsche and learned the word from their facebook page.
So I was thinking /his/ how white would the the world be if not for the millions of mainly white deaths in both or either world wars?
I know a lot of European country's like France would not be in the racial situation it is now if not for importing men from North Africa to replace those lost in the wars.
So my real question really is would whites be the majority or would we still be in the same situation now?
probably a lot and they would probably keep their empires too

Why was the Ottoman Empire so tolerant of Christians and allowed them to coexist peacefully with them, while in return Christians nations were openly hostile and intolerant to Muslims?
>>2703982
Because western historians reacting against the overreach of the christian church invented the idea of a tolerant and peaceful orient for political reasons and in reality godcucks are always and everywhere intolerant shitstains on humanity.
>>2703990
This.
In reality it wasn't much of a peaceful coexistence, given that non-muslims in e.g. court were always treated as liars if any muslim contradicted them. This essentially made it possible to abuse non-muslims and get off scot free, and of course there were people who did this.
>>2703990
Religious freedom was a thing in the Ottoman Empire tho
Hello, I'm looking for historical armors that are beautiful or intimidating but used in combat and not ceremonial.
I always found warmasks to be the most intimidating you could get.
It totally removes the human element from a soldier which makes the one wering it way more creepy.

Not much SEA armor.
But this is beautiful.

- Homosexuality is a mental illness because it is unnatural, in that is does not allow the natural procreation between male and female
- Left to their own devices, women prefer alpha males and foreign conquerors and cannot be trusted to contribute substantially to the nationalist project, so their natural preferences must not be allowed
- Women are 'encouraged' by various means -- ranging from rational argument to brainwashing (via propaganda), to enforcement of law, to fear of violence and/or social exclusion -- to prefer that which is not their natural preference; i.e. prefer the unnatural
- A preference for the unnatural, as mentioned above, is a mental illness -- itself unnatural
- Men who prefer women who are denied their natural preferences for men (i.e. mentally ill women) are themselves mentally ill, because they prefer the unnatural state of mental illness in women
- National Socialism, which is meant to discourage the 'degeneracy' of natural sexual preferences in women, is based on the preferences of the unnatural
- National Socialism is a mental illness

>Left to their own devices, women prefer alpha males and foreign conquerors and cannot be trusted to contribute substantially to the nationalist project, so their natural preferences must not be allowed
I know you're baiting, but in most societies where fascism is dominant, Alpha males are the nationalists. The funny thing is that if we had natsoc here, it'd be chads getting al the women - again - and all these cucks would still lose.
t. Anarchist virgin who would also lose if he wasn't just shot
>>2703925
Pure alpha
>>2703940
>>>2703925 (You)
> Pure alpha
You misunderstand. Let me try to clarify.
If we had fascism here, we'd have alpha men like the SS fucking the majority of the top-tier women, with white 'Chads' fucking the rest. The cucks who want natsoc in our current society would get none. Regardless of how ideological they are.
It's kinda funny that the only people who expouse this 'only strongest get to mate' shit wouldn't get any if it was implemented.
Why do philosophers even try when stoicism is clearly flawless?
flaws:
1. It is focused around human happiness (which is completely arbitrary).
2. It uses an arbitrary definition of freedom.
3. It is groundless unless you can support determinism.

Is it possible for an individual to have value in a world where all knowledge is freely available? In some technical sense anyone can become or do anything thanks to the internet. Specialization is all but meaningless in the modern age, so what remains to give a person value? As in, what can you do that other people can't? Nothing. Everyone is replaceable, there's too much supply of people and ability and knowledge.
Is this not a world gone mad?
No.
