Courage is a fucking meme propagated by the higher echelons of society so you can fight and die for their interests.

any answer I give you is going to be insufficient because mental representation is non-propositional in character, and I can only answer you in sentences, and natural language sentences are roughly analogous to propositions.

>>2473810
Courage is the median of cowardice and brashness.

This is just proof that Mediterranean men are the true alphas. Weak beta nords, blacks, and Arabs can bitch more.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Priapus

>Priapus joined Pan and the satyrs as a spirit of fertility and growth, though he was perennially frustrated by his impotence. In a ribald anecdote told by Ovid, he attempted to rape the goddess Hestia but was thwarted by an ass, whose braying caused him to lose his erection at the critical moment and woke Hestia. The episode gave him a lasting hatred of asses and a willingness to see them destroyed in his honour.

perfect ending

Not really that much, still a great game tho

It's not really meant to depict Polish culture.

>mexican american war 2.0
>now in half the time with triple the no longer jumping bean(er)s

they said IF the us attacks us then we could use your help and in return help you.

The same exact shit the allies pulled with every other country on the map.

It would have kept us forces tied up in texas for a few weeks then they push south and then come over to France.

It might have given Ludendorff the time he needed to take paris but its not like Britian would have stopped fighting or the US.

There was no contact that I know of. And given that Mexico was willing to join the war on the side of the U.S. and sent in a couple of squadrons of fighter pilots to somewhere in Europe (Italy? I don't remember exactly, but I think it was Italy, could just be a fever dream though).

>If so, how would things have realistically played out?

I assume you mean by this that they get the Mexicans to declare war on the U.S.? If they're lucky, they're crushed underfoot in a few months. If they're unlucky, a few weeks. Mexico doesn't stand a chance against the U.S., and none of the major Axis powers are in a position to send reinforcement.

a genocide of serbs would be fantastic

Oy vey

>>2473469
OK, i have a question
Reading about the yugoslav wars, the term "genocide by rape" gets used quite alot to describe the genocide of muslims, especially in the bosnia-serbia war, but this makes no sense to me.
Raping a muslim woman will only result in more muslim babies so it sounds really counterproductive to rape them. Did the serbs really not know/expect this?

logic

>>2473425
Metaphysics to mysticism is what modern medicine is to homoeopathy.

>>2473425
If you look at a tree growing up from its roots and into a solid trunk and then branching out into vast arrays of leaves and think "this tree is like humanity, its roots and trunk are strong like our ancestors, and we individually, are like the leaves growing and fading so fast again and again every generation and still the tree grows." You are having a metaphysical thought. You are looking at nature and trying to understand your reality.

If you look at a tree and think "This tree contains the souls of my ancestors and if I do a special dance they will talk to me" you are having a mystical thought.

See the difference?

>>2473424
Yeah. I don't understand why Southeast Asia and East Asia aren't considered the same region.

>>2473424
Depends on how you look at it

>>2473424
Cultural, maybe, but they will get mad if you lumped them with chinks

Yeah, your desert religion is better than their desert religion.

I unironically agree with this.

The Pharisees did nothing wrong and to this day Jewish theology completely BTFO's Christian theology.

>>2473240
>Temple get's completely BTFO by God after Jesus' death
>Jesus prediction of the temple falling and gold melting came true after jews were cucked by Roman legions

None. Not even the Bible says it. Retards who think the Bible is literally about a six day creation do. It's the only way for them to rationalize things older than 6,000 years.

Tons. early sculpures and jar painting show of weird lizard, like creatures. It's also ""coincidence"" that multiple tribes/empires from around the world have some form of dinosours/dragons in their culture.

3 predators.

>>2472937
No.

They have most of society's capital and experience.

>>2472937
No, also please don't read Keynes... At least don't take it seriously.

>trillions in transfer payments erased.

>Consumer spending plummets without Social Security spending

>Inequality soars

>Medical profession btfo when their biggest user base with tax payer insured health care disappears

It would fix our long term debt and pensions though so kinda a wash

They would have gone bankrupt and collapsed even sooner.

Mexico's claim on that land is less legitimate than Spain's.

>mexico fights war of independence against spain
>decides to play empire and claim all the Viceroyalty of New Spain
>a lot of these areas object.
>california and texas constantly revolting against mexico.
>during the few years mexico had control. mexicans didn't want to move up north. so mexico begs americans and europeans to move in.
>eventually texas and california get tired of Mexico's shit. Join the USA.
>mexico and texas get into a border dispute.
>USA pushes mexico's shit in.
>only takes some of mexico because southern states wanted more slave territory.

Polk should have taken it all. Allowing the USA to wipe the hispanic taint from north america.

>>2473064
Mexico wasn't considered as North America until a few years ago so no reason to use the manifest destiny far at the south of Rio Grande

>i'm going to insert hardware into my body with dangerous surgery that will be outdated in 3 years

>I'm too scared to confront my mortality like a man, time to turn into a toaster!

You're going to die anon, better to face the reality now than cling to the hope that we'll figure immortality out before you croak

Well China is now sitting on the Paracels so it would seem to me like they got the better end of it.

>>2472654
Strategic Chinese victory.

China displayed to Vietnam and the region that the Soviet Union would not be able to protect them.

>>2472661
Wasn't China's primary goal to get Vietnam out of Cambodia? That failed, didn't it?
