So how come communism never took hold in the south? It seems like an obvious choice for international communist to try and shill it there to the poor/working class. Is it just the inherent elitism of communism that made it impossible?

George Fitzhugh shilled towards the end of the 1850s that slavery was a form of socialism (he was a socialist) and that John Locke/Thomas Jefferson/et al were wrong

Sociology of the South is the name of his book
>>2449647

Three primary reasons:
First, the south remained a primarily agricultural region with little industry.
Second, most Southerners had no incentive for land redistribution.
Third, racial divide meant that Southern Whites and Southern blacks, poor or not, did not want the other to get ahead of their current position because it was seen as a zero-sum game.

Are you in college? If so what's your major? Do you think it's worth it?
Who here self studies philosophy, history, languages, etc?
im a philosophy major
its definitely worth it i spent a decade working skilled labor and going back to school for what i love is the best thing ive ever done
>>2443195
Not in college. It's a bad investment. I'm in a technical school, right now.
I go to Michigan and i'm a history major. I love the classes but I have no fucking idea what i'm going to do with my degree.
I will probably end up trying to work at one of the Smithsonians.

can I get a quick rundown on this guy?
I'm making a list similar to this one for general history. Basically a guide on how to go from Ancient Greece to modern times as quickly as possible while still not half-assing it.
I'm wondering what /his/ would like to see on a general history chart. I personally have read enough history books that I feel like I could make the chart, but I don't necessarily know if the books I read could be considered the best.
Additionally, I was wondering what other charts like this you would like to see.
Obviously Hitler.

Does it actively make you stupider or does it just naturally attract retards?

People from other religions in the US are doctors, lawyers and programmers that came to the country by legal means. They don't really represent the average for their religions.

Napoleon was a great man, his pride was his downfall but he was a net positive for the World
we should at all times fight perfidious albion attempts at historical revisionism in paiting Napoleon as the Hitler of his time
fuck you Lindybeige, a guy that unironicly says the Churchill is WW2's best tank should aknowledge being retarded, not even french
I don't like French because of the whole colonize my people thing, but Napoleon seem pretty cool.

Are Indians part of the Caucasian race?
Does it matter? You would still perceive them differently from other Caucasian nationalities in one way or another regardless.
India is too large and diverse, you have to specify a specific area.

Yes.
