Which grand strategy games do you enjoy /his/?
I'm booting up Crusader Kings II for the first time tonight. Where do you get your strategy fix? Europa Universalis IV, Civilization VI?
Civ is 4X, not GS.
>>2520091
Download the AGoT. Its an insanely fleshed out mod, arguably even more detailed than the base game.
If not, download HIP. Historical immersion is insane and you can become a saint if you have enough piety when you die.
The line between 4x and gs are extremely arbritrary.
So in ye olde days, how did everyone manage to walk around and store gold and silver without getting robbed?
>>2520050
They didn't, being robbed was extremely common.
>>2520050
By stabbing the person who is trying to rob you. Stupid question.
>>2520050
By being a big guy
Recently i've had an insatiable lust (sexual?) for historical music, do any of you have suggestions? This is some of it that i've been listening (furiously masturbating) to
>"The Girl I Left Behind Me"
https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=oblF9EqE9RA
>"Men of Harlech"
https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=XSEU5zHgcTc
>"The Yellow Rose of Texas"
https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=EDft-W0gUIY
>"The Battle Cry of Freedom"
https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=gz6Jk8RttlE
>Does anyone actually look at links?
>historical music
Bruh sounds like you're just into patriotic songs/marches.
Amazon has two albums I'd recommend on their digital music service for American ones: Battle Cry of Freedom and Voices of America.
Look up Hail Columbia too.
>>2520103
Patriotic sounds better, but more like folk music
I think i just posted patriotic because those were the best examples

TELL ME SOMETHING INTERESTING ABOUT ROME
JOKES ONLY ROMANS WOVLD GET:
THIS KILLS THE GAVL
>>2519991
>using "U" instead of "V"
Son of a Gavlic whore, Polybivs, Yov are not a trve Roman!
Also look at this graffiti of my favorite Emperor Umu! At first it appears to be a crude caricature of the legendary neckbeard of Nero, but if you look at it close enough, you see it's also the back of a noble head, the great Nero hidden behind generations of slander!
IN DESCENDING CHRONOLOGICAL ORDER:
FIRST ROME: BYZANTINE EMPIRE = TROY.
SECOND ROME: RURIK/RUS EMPIRE = ROMA = LATINOKRATIA = HOLY ROMAN EMPIRE = HABSBURG EMPIRE.
THIRD ROME: THIRD REICH.
/////////////
FIRST ROME:
TROY, CAPITAL OF BYZANTION, FOUNDED BY BYZAS/ILOS.
SECOND ROME:
1. THE RUS EMPIRE, FOUNDED BY RURIK/AENEAS.
1.1 LATINOKRATIA/MAGNA GRAECIA, FOUNDED BY THE CRUSADING ARMIES THAT INVADED BYZANTEON.
1.2 ROMA, ITALIA, FOUNDED BY ONE, OR TWO, DESCENDANTS OF RURIK/AENEAS, NAMED SINEUS, AND TROVUS/BORIS, AND GLEB/ROMAN, AND DAVID/ROMULUS, AND REMUS.
1.3 SACRUM IMPERIUM ROMANUM.
1.4 HABSBURG EMPIRE.
THESE FIVE ARE PERIODS OF A SINGLE "ROMAN CONTINUUM".
THIRD ROME:
1. GERMANIA, CAPITAL OF THE THIRD REICH, FOUNDED BY ADOLF HITLER.
1.1 CONTEMPORARY ZIONIST GLOBAL COLONIALISM; UNDETERMINED CAPITAL.
THESE TWO ARE PERIODS OF A SINGLE "ROMAN CONTINUUM".
/////////////
ROME WAS USURPED AND PERVERTED BY ITS ETERNAL ENEMIES: THE ZIONISTS, AND IT CONTINUES UNDER THEIR CONTROL.
THE "EAGLE" —WHICH REPRESENTS THE PHOENIX—, BICEPHALOUS, OR MONOCEPHALOUS, IS ONE OF THE MAIN SYMBOLS BY WHICH THE USURPED EMPIRE CAN BE IDENTIFIED.
Can someone give me a quick rundown on Jungian archetypes?Isn't it just a some descriptions and examples on various conventions and devices (tropes) found within creative works? Like "Pet the Dog", "Redemption in the Rain", "Evil Costume Switch", etc.
That's Junginan archetypes being used in a literary context.
Basically, the archetypes are what Jung believed to be cultural and psychological universals.
These archetypes belong to the psychic collective unconscious shared by humans and manifest via human expression which is influence by this unconsciousness.
Almost like Platonic Forms honestly, though specified a bit differently.
>>2519980
Is that James Gandolfini?
Jung would say the conventions/tropes are inspired by universal symbols/figures/archetypes that come from the collective unconscious.
Pic related are Apache people.
They look just like Mexicans... wtf
>>2519925
most mexicans are mixed with native american and spanish blood, some are completely amerindian, some are completely caucasion, a few are black and asian.
>>2519925
Dont tell that to the Apache, they fucking hated spics, kept em out of Texas better than any wall could
>>2519925
>Most Apaches live in Mexico until 1848
>some still live in Mexico today
>wonder why they look like Mexicans
Quality thread OP
I'm having a hard time understanding socialism on a practical level and I'd like your help. From wikipedia
>Socialism is a range of economic and social systems characterised by social ownership and democratic control of the means of production
What exactly does "social ownership of the means of production" actually MEAN? Like, what would it look like in practice? Would it mean, say, that coal miners would own the coal they mine? But in that case, who runs the operation, who finds the buyers, who provides the tools? How do they decide how much coal each miner would own?
Or take the example of builders who build the house. Do they own the house? Or would the architect own the house? If the builders are more replaceable than the architect, they why should they have equal ownership of it?
>>2519860
It means that everyone "owns" the coal mine or house, but there is still one person who does the hiring, the workers, etc. The people who belong to the coal mine in some way are the ones who own it. The buyers aren't part of it, so they don't own it, since they just buy coal. I guess what I'm trying to say is the workers and managers own the coal mine equally and workers have just as enough rights as the managers.
>Then why should they have equal ownership of it?
Because in theory the architect wouldn't have the house if it weren't for the builders, and vice versa. Thus everyone owns it equally.
>>2519905
But aren't the builders a lot more replaceable than the architect? That is, it would be a lot easier to find other builders, than to find other architects who could design a home of similar quality. So I don't see how the contribution and worth are equal. If the builders refused to build it unless they had equal ownership, couldn't the architect easily just find more builders?
>>2519860
Shares are owned by employees.
For example if you hire a cleaner to clean your office they have to get a dividend payout and a vote.
Has there ever been a post-Women's Suffrage Democrat/liberal who hasn't been beta male?
Have women successfully taken control of the modern world?
How has Feminism come to power so rapidly in the past 100 years?
Why do Liberals today mostly support Islam when it has been recognized as a culture that oppresses women?
>another feminism thread
Fuck off already, holy shit.
How was FDR a beta male?
>>2519807
turns out the world is more complicated than shitty /r9k/ memes give it credit.
Is selling oil cuckery?
Think about it: It is the most valuable limited resource on earth and necessary for every economy that wants to thrive. You even need oil if you want to build fucking solar panels.
If you sell it to rivals you strengthen their economy in the long run for a short-term gain which could easily be obtained by selling stuff you made with far less oil.
It's the tie that binds
>>2519771
>cuckery
NOONE WILL EVER TAKE ANYTHING THAT YOU POST SERIOUSLY AS LONG AS YOU KEEP USING THE TERM "KEK" —OR ANY OF ITS CONJUGATIONS, AND VARIANTS— IN ITS VULGAR "MEME SENSE".
Ss are you like still in highschool or what? I can't imagine an adult making a thread like this
What were the pre-slavic peoples of eastern europe? I kbow there were germanics in Romania and Turkics in Southern Russia and Crimea but what about everything else like Paeonnians, Central Europeans, or Baltics?
Pic was some random thing I found on google
Does no one know anything about them?

Seriously, how do you prove him wrong?
By denying the ego as an illusion.
>>2519728
So... are you saying... the ego is a spook?

Bingo
Are you a renaissance man?

I serve the Republic!
Which country is better in culture/history
China or Britain
>>2519679
>be china
>be invaded by the mongols
>build wall
>die anyways
>>2519679
Britain you god damn idiot
Just asking this is embarassing
>>2519679
China is a vast nation of countless millions, more-or-less unified in culture, with a glorious history spanning thousands of years. Britain is a tiny wet island off of a tiny wet continent, with no history preceding foreign invasion, with no ancient tradition of unity, who have somehow built the entire modern world and everything in it.
Clearly, China has more "cultural weight", but equally clearly Britain has outperformed beyond all possible expectations.
Can a man defy fate?
>fate
Ah yes, the concept of the divine story
>>2519649
YES; ONLY HEROIC PERSONS CAN.
In a way. But really, no.
Why do atheists feel the need to evangelize?
Can't they understand that we all as a humanity are looking for truth following different paths? At least one of us might get the right one.
>>2519605
You're just suffering confirmation bias.
How likely do you think a "live and let live" atheist is going to go out of their way to say "hey, it's not for me but it's cool if that's what you believe."
Never. They cruise on by to find trap threads or whatever to jerk it to because they don't give a fuck. And it's not like you drive by an atheist non-belief weekly meeting on Sundays and see them gathering, thus having a more normal, non-evangelizing baseline to form a perception around.
>>2519725
So they should have sunday meetings to get it out of their system?
>>2519605
Religiontards are easily triggered and insecure about their beliefs, that's why they label any criticism of them as "militant atheism".
