Human Geography is easy as fuq, he should pass if he has an IQ above 80

but from what I remember, they deal with migration patterns, population pyramids, language development, what makes a developed society developed, uhh that's all I remember for now. It's easy though for real, and worthwhile to take to knock out the college credit

I took a class on the history of alcohol in college while earning my history degree and learned quite a few interesting things:
>the ancient Sumerians had a poem they credited to a "beer goddess" with instructions on how to make beer
>the ancient Egyptians who built the pyramids were paid in beer
>the punishment for brewing a bad batch of beer in Babylonian times was to be drowned in it, likely because it was seen as a waste of precious barley
>Athenians believed one should be inebriated before a debate because people would be more likely to speak their mind without holding back
>monasteries and nunneries in the Middle Ages doubled as breweries
>during fasting, monks were allowed beer as "liquid bread" since they couldn't eat actual bread
>Muslims invented distillation despite not drinking alcohol...they used it for making perfume
>the Founding Fathers, drank wine, cider, ale and whiskey, it wasn't until the 19th century after mass immigration from (what is now) Germany that lager overtook ale as America's favorite type of beer
And what most people who are educated in history already know:
>people in the Middle Ages drank beer because they knew they wouldn't get an illness from it, unlike water which often carried dysentery, cholera etc. They had no idea that boiling the water during brewing is what made the water pure and that alcohol kept it pure

This is an interesting topic, here's an article about a guy who replicated an ancient Egyptian beer recipe: https://www.homebrewersassociation.org/zymurgy/pharaoh-ale-brewing-a-replica-of-an-ancient-egyptian-beer/

There was a wine during Roman times that was supposed to be the highest rated wine of the antiquity. Forgot what it was called.
>>
If I recall correctly, the Romans had mega-breweries that functioned as the closest thing to factories during antiquity, and they shipped literal tons of wine a day to various parts of the empire.

It's the truth. All the descriptions of them say they were dark skinned. All the depictions of them show them being dark skinned. Why would they be white like the Jews of today? Read Shlomo Sand "Invention of the Jewish People" no ones refuted anything he says.

Ironically, jews are very much alike /pol/tards. They literally deport black jews because they don't want them "tainting" their land despite them having the same ancestry.

Jews ARE white you moron. Also the crusades had nothing to do with "white", they were counter-attacks attempting to recover land invaded by Muslims. And before you sperg out, Arabs are ALSO white.

What are some valid criticisms of fascism and/or National Socialism from the point of view of how effective such systems are when it comes to the practical aspects of running a nation - economics, geopolitics/statesmanship, etc.?

Obviously fascist Italy and Nazi Germany, the two leading examples of fascism and National Socialism both massively failed geopolitically. However, the argument continues over whether they would have been successful economically and in other practical regards in the long run, had they not been destroyed in war.

Personally, I suspect that such systems fundamentally cannot compete economically or scientifically with liberal republics in the long run. Witness, for example, the brain drain that Nazi racial policies imposed and the relative incompetence of the Nazi state when it came to organizing mass production (until the Speer "miracle"). I am less familiar, however, with fascist Italy's economic development.

There is also the question of what other states besides the two obvious ones should be considered fascist/NatSoc.

What are arguments that can be used against fascists/NatSoccers who don't care about the morality of totalitarianism or political violence, and therefore cannot be reasoned with by using conventional appeals to morality, the value of political freedom, and so on?

How do I into secular Buddhism, /his/?

Feel like it's a philosophy I could really benefit from, but I simply can't bring myself to believe in anything spirtual.

It's not from being an edgy atheist, I truly want some kind of religion in my life. I feel it would give me stability. But I also know all natural phenomena can ultimately be explained by physics.

I just want a philosophy I can lean on

It's literal Idolatry and Nihilism.
You're better off being a fedora since atleast you'll provide some entertainment to non-fedoras.

Is it really just nihilism?
>>
>>2677310
You are born, you live and then you die.
That's the Buddhist mindset/ideal.

Nothing matters, nothing has meaning... And in the end, they didn't come to these conclusions empirically or through any sort of philosophy or train of thought.
They want to believe that those things are true, so they are... True Nihilism to the core.

Because the War in Heaven is a very common motif in Indo-European religions, and a very popular theme for poetry, art, and metaphor. When the Galileans were trying to sell their religion to the gentiles, they soon realised that they were never going to efface paganism. The best they could hope for is to substitute Christian characters where Indo-European divinities originally were. So they spun a tale of Lucifer rebelling against Yahweh as a parallel to Loki betraying Asgard, or Typhon storming Mt Olympus.

It is worth remembering that the War in Heaven is never mentioned in the Bible, and does not exist in Judaism. It is not a core Abrahmic doctrine, just a syncretism to please the northern barbarians.

Symbolized Hitler choosing the industrialists and aristocracy over the anti-capitalist wing of the Nazi Party and rehabilitated its image among outsiders (the SA were also seen as the violent thug wing of the Nazi Party) in the West. Remember how sympathetic many Tories and US Republians were to the Nazis before 1939.
