Why is it that so many philosophers were beta males? Nietzsche, Kant, Hume, Schopenhauer (until fame) Rousseau... the list goes on..

Diogenes was the most alpha ever person to ever live. Literally urinated on people who annoyed him.
>>2400799
Diogenes wasn't alpha, he was an ascended omega.

all life is a game of applying whatever meaning you want to things
Why does everyone ignore the median empire and claim the Achaemenid empire as the first Iranian empire?
No one claims the Achaemenids as the first Iranian empire, but first Persian empire.
Also, what is left of the Medes today don't even care since they are all Turk LARPers.
>>2400564
>Why does everyone ignore the median empire
Because it was neither the highest of the high nor the lowest of the low but strictly in the middle.

I have always wondered why Japanese Warriors had zero to non handheld shields.
And after a bit of digging and I found out they did all the way up to the 1800
Before the advent of Samurai it was pretty common to have hand held shields but due to mounted archer combat shields were replaced with 2 handed weapons like bow and arrow, Yari, 2 handed Katana.
And so I found a couple of pictures and also a couple of videos that explain in what context they were used.
Start at 2 min mark
https://youtu.be/0C19fMHVW-w?t=2m
I couldn't find pictures of the shields shown in the video so I was hoping someone could help me with those?
I couldn't screen shot them as it resulted in black captures.
Ill be posting some more pictures I found of old Japanese drawings of Samurai with shields.
Pre Samurai Era Recreated shields.
Hello /his/, I have lurked on here for a bit now but I don't really want to take part in many discussions because I haven't researched much on the different topics you talk about. What are some common /his/ topics that come up? Do you have a wiki? With love, newfag.
P.S. I want justifcation to be a Prussia fanboy.
Frederick the Great, obviously
just... learn history.
Preferably as a continuous narrative.
Just keep in mind that the Roman empire died in 1453 and you'll be fine
>>2400320
The uniforms and greatcoats alone are reason enough to be a Prussia fanboy
>Lie to get Troops into South Vietnam
>Refuse to invade North Vietnam because of "lack of justification"
What the fuck?
Why didn't the Americans just make another lie and invade North Vietnam?
>>2400194
they were there to prop up the failing south vietnamese government
invading the north would have accomplished literally nothing
>congrats hanoi is now a car park
>south vietnamese government still has no control over territory or people outside saigon
>>2400207
>South Vietnam have difficulty holding control because of North Vietnamese insurrection
Are you ducking retarded?
You think the removal of the state that was leading constant attacks on the South wouldn't have helped the South strengthen its hold?
>>2400194
>Refuse to invade North Vietnam because of "lack of justification"
Well, there's your problem. That's not the reason. The real reason is because if the USA had committed an overt invasion of North Vietnam, China would have most likely dropped their own proxy war pretenses and punched back in a big way.
Is she /ourgirl/?
Goldstein right?
Might read her one day, though I don't think I'll agree
recommend some book
How long has the concept of"generations" being unique special cultural blocs existed? Now I constantly hear the media talking about baby boomers, gen x and millennials and just got curious how long as this been common?
Also general generations discussion or whatever haha
>>2400080
Even the Greek philosophers complained about "kids these days".
>>2400080
>general generations discussion or whatever haha
This is the level of autism i can relate to
Anyway, people have been complaining about how its going to shit and how it used to be great since beggining of time. This new generation is just special since there are lots of new thing specifical for it, social media being the most important one.
>>2400080
literally forever
there are hieroglyphs complaining about how the younger generation of egyptians are disrespectful and will lead to impending civilizational collapse etc

Help me understand a Italian fascism, /his/.
I'm starting to get interested in fascism and I often see people praising Mussolini's regime over Hitler's reich. Did fascism help Italy? Was it good living there for the average person?
Can fascism make a successful nation in modern times? Can you have fascism without trying to be an autarky? I don't believe Jews are inherently evil and I'm not a white supremacist, and from what I've read this isn't an issue with Italian fascism.
>>2399679
Yes, the average person was either as well off or better off than before fascism, which is why people didn't really care about the regime change.
>>2399746
They were horribly awful at war and pretty much did nothing note exept lose, they are Italians though, they havent been good at war since Roman times desu.
They also pursecuted gays, I guess the economy was ok but money doesn't mean happiness.
>>2399679
Mussolini was the first to do something for the Italian people, like draining swamps and winning the war on wheat. He also redeem the Italian army by conquering Abyssinia
Sadly he entered WW2 and fucked all
How much resistance against the Nazis was there from the German people themselves?
>>2399640
A little bit here and there but most people who had legit reasons to be against the regime like Gommies and Kikes were thrown into camps. As I recall there was gangs of kids who rebelled against the societal norms by listening to foreign music and smoking and stuff if you count that as resistance.
The most significant event I can think of is when members of the German High Command attempted to assassinate Hitler because they weren't pleased with how he was handling the war.
>>2399669
But yeah there were no Hugo Stiglitz wannabes
For most average people who were not mentally retarded, Jewish, or Communist, life was pretty okay aside from the constant bombing, intense rationing, and fear of being conscripted. Even if you didn't like the nazis you had other things to worry about.
And yeah, there's one thing I forgot to mention. A lot of people hid Jews in their homes and I believe there was groups something like the underground railroad in the 19th century that tried to hide Jews and get them out of the country.
