Were men really expected to sacrifice themselves in times of crisis or is that just a romanticizing of the era?
>>2381142
Yes, but only if they were expecting one of them in the wreckage.
>>2381142
They still are. But just like back then that doesn't mean they did or will.

It's not a cool tradition that the captain goes down with the ship. If he's in charge of everything that goes on in the ship and if the ship sinks then it's his fault and he has to go down with it. All the more incentive not to be a dick captain and to be responsible and prudent in your orders
Not sure if this is the right board for this. Does anyone know when this is from and how much it's worth?

My Dad's an ex-congressman-- they sell those to members and staff in a store in ne of the HOBs, they have no particular value other then just being sort of fun to have. Got a pewter mug around here somewhere...

>One hundred years from today the Bible will be a forgotten book.
No. That's bullshit. Even older books and stories from dead religions aren't forgotten. That book and its impact on society ensures it will be remembered. For better or for worse. Mainly worse.

I still have no idea what art means.
By the way here's a picture that I found to be too cute to fap to despite it being intentionally made to be so.

Was two nukes enough?
>>2380641
No, all Japanese should have been exterminated.
>>2380643
This
>>2380641
We needed to use at least a dozen nukes, and use them against the Soviets.
The Japanese were no threat to America. Instead of putting an oil embargo on them over their colonial ambitions in Asia, driving them into the arms of the Axis and provoking Pearl Harbor, we should have sided with them against the Red menace and stayed out of the European theater altogether.

I'm not a leftist, actually I'm a moderate, I just thought Jordan Peterson was a /pol/ thing.
Forgive me if I was wrong in assuming this case.

He's a classical liberal and philosopher who calls out calls out leftist SJW types on their totalitarianism.

Did Hitler have a penis? If not, then why was he assigned male at birth?
ITT: Historical people you would penetrate (not gay from a Roman perspective).
Look at him. Admire his beautiful pace, his flawless features, his full lips, his long hair.
>You will never fuck Charles II
>tfw you will never have a passionate homosexual affair with this dashing gentleman
>>2380142
Allegedly, he had a huge dick so he'd be the one doing the penetration.

WW2 military thread
lets discuss organization and tactics
to start, the classical question
could had germany won the war?
>>2380130
With a simple change to tactics or organization?
Absolutely not.
>>2380130
Germany was pretty much were defeated after the very first winter against the USSR. Stalingrad in the following winter sealed their defeat.
>>2380130
Even if they did the only reality available to them is a Europe filled with Insurgency.
childhood is idolising anarcho-capitalism/communism/primitivism
adulthood is realising anarcho-monarchism makes more sense
>>2379747
not an argument
>>2379747
As much as capitalists will say anarcho-communism is an oxymoron, and communists will say anarcho-capitalism is an oxymoron, "anarcho-monarchism" is objectively an oxymoron no matter how you look at it.
>not anarcho-totalitarianism with a libertarian dictator
without going into ideological bullshit mode, which Balkan country did most in the struggle to put an hat to the Ottoman invasion?
Considering their size I would say Albania andthe Romanian states did the heaviest lifting
>>2379740
I am ethnically Serb so i'm a bit biased but we put up a pretty good fight despite some.......setbacks....
>>2379740
Nobody really, the bulgarians and serbs were fighting eacother, the fuck did Albania do? Skenderbbeg came after the ottomans had conquered the balkans, they are the only people who willingly converted en mass and apent the next 500 years being their lap dogs.
>>2379799
The bulk of the conversions actually happened in the 17th century and onwards. The nobility converted straight away.
O.P. Catamitus omnibus plurimam salutem dicit.
Non sum certus hanc rem hic esse assiduam vel justam, filum Latinum verum volo. Certe lingua Latina multa per saecula erat modus totius eruditionis, ac abavi nostri erant rectissimi in existimaverando linguam Latinam esse fundamentum sententiae rectae sensibilitatis veraeque, nam ea lingua non solum dialecticam magnuficam continet, sed etiam ipsa est poesis profundissima. Itaque hoc filum omnium Latinitatis amantium vel cupientium causa facio. Si ego ipse ubique in Latinitate erro, certe me corrigite, vos amabo.
