Why are Poles only butthurt about ruskies for being mean to them in history, but mostly give the krauts a pass?
>>2363301
Said who?
Surely most hate Russians since the cold war was the most recent one, but I´ve met some that despise both, and even Austria.
>>2363304
They go so far as to call themselves East germanics instead of slavs because of their contempt against russia, ignorant of the fact that East germanics were just as, if not probably more mean towards them.
>>2363301
>mostly give the krauts a pass
They don't.
As an egoist, why should i support the removal of power structures that benefit my race and in turn me?

You shouldn't.
There are no power structures that benefit your race and by extension you.

Tell me how a german victory in ww1 wouldn't be ideal:
No rise of communism, no holocaust, no ww2, a lot of avoided deaths simply
>>2363118
I won't because it would have been glorious.
Heil dir im Siegerkranz, heil dir im Kaiserreich
>>2363118
You're assuming Germany being 2x it's original size would be okay.
>>2363131
Albion would even be envious of a Germany the size of Luxemburg
Was Native Indians Genocide the worst crime in the history of mankind?
>>2362535
Nah, most had already died thanks to diseases like smallpox. You could of course argue that this, too, was genocide, but I would be careful to apply that term where medicinal knowledge had no concept of germs
They're lucky they got what we allowed them to have.

Absolute nonsense that would only make the slightest sense if we met alien societies.
How come only white supremacists and social justice warriors have a problem with Guns, Germs and Steel?
I hate all races equally as well as those obsessed with whatever the fuck this social justice thing is, and I have many problems with GGS. I don't disagree with the thesis, just with many of the arguments in it such as "zebras can't be tamed" and "north-south vs. west-east axis"
Because that's false.

The 19th century called. They want their demographics back.
Why is it that it seems like the new Testament God, Jesus Christ of Nazareth is just the kindest most merciful being you could ever imagine, but the Father in the Old Testament can come off across as down right psycopathic at times, with tests that he already knows the outcome to?
The Jews worship Yahweh. Yahweh is satan.

Good question fellow Citizen. I'll assume OP meant Republic, that's the only time it could be.
Why did the British and the French decide to help the Qing Dynasty instead of supporting the Taiping Rebellion instead?

The lebanese civil war is the most complicated thing you will ever hear or see about in history.
I suggest a Documentary. This one is non biased, and brings in all the politicians.
Also the only way i learned about the civil war was actually living in lebanon for 3 years of my life.
Are you lebanese ?
if so what part of lebanon ?
what political faction do you associate with.
what is your religion.
finally you arent lebanese then what are you ?
