Childhood is siding with Jesus
Adulthood is realising Mohamed makes more sense
>>2339238
Yes, so much yes.
>>2339238
Why is Jesus always portrayed as some weak dude when he really was more of an active rebel type who bascally went around redpilling everyone and told them to get off their asses?

Can China ever be a superpower again like the old days? Because when I go there, I seriously doubt they'll be anything more than what they are now.
Where does this meme come from? Do the journalists/columnists saying this really believe this when they go there?
I go there to get shit from my luggage stolen by airport security. Need to watch out for scammers everywhere. Hear from friends they eat literal cats in their family. Anything outside the city center looks like a war zone. They cook in sewer oil. Their level of corruption is insane. The police sit there doing shit. The pollution goes over its peak times a 100. One could go on.
Honestly, it looks like some Babylon AD world where you have hi-tech mixed in with urban decay.

Gdp doesn't mean good infrastructures nor well being. Any expense contributes to growth. Even corruption costs pollution costs and dog eating. You can destroy a school and replace it with an apple store and the gdp will increase
Here's the real way of looking at it - if this is reflective of #1 GDP PPP
Imagine what happens when China hits GDP PPP per capita on par with SK or Japan.

Lol about 10% of what you mentioned is true

If you watched this shit-show, what was the most cringey moment for you?
For me
1. William Wallace equipped in fucking "Braveheart" style
2.Waffen SS using ww1 equipment
3.Sun Tzu using crossbow
4."IRA has never been defeated"
5.Ivan the Terrible dressed like a hobo
Pirate vs Knight was so bad it was funny.
Napoleon vs Washington and "the genocidal" Hernan Cortes.
Why did they dumb down both the Waffen SS and the Viet Cong? They went with shitty sub machineguns from 20 years before their wars when each of them had comparable assault rifles.
I need as much as /his/ has on mercenary armies. Condottiere and Landsknecht both welcome. I'm reading Burckhardt's book on the Renaissance and the bit on mercenary armies was enough to pique my interest but was too brief

When European kings, particularly during the 100 years war era, finished up whatever war they were fighting they often cut back on costs by simply disbanding their army then and there instead of walking it home. Medieval armies did not have supply lines as we understand them today, and usually provisioned themselves by pillaging the countryside they passed through. This meant that you would have large bands of men trained in pillage roving about the countryside wherever their whims took them, likely not very eager to abandon those pleasures and return to their old existence back home. King's soon found that these soldiers were far better at taking castles and fighting battles than the decadent and fat nobles who had traditionally been the war making classes, and were eager to contract their services.
Generally they were led by nobles who were second sons without much chance of inheritance, or just lusted after gold and adventure. A particularly prolific group were the White Company led by John Hawkwood, who fought both for and against the pope in the schismatic wars of the 14th century.

What is the most retarded thing that has ever happened in history?
Kaiser Wilhelm II's entire existence.
>>2338596
To be fair it's Bismarck who was extraordinary and atypical. Wilhelm was just being average German.
We are living in the most retarded moment in recorded history.
The descent into WWI was retarded, but the retards at least had a reason for doing retarded shit. The Chinese Cultural Revolution was retarded as fuck, but at least it was an ethos.
Before the modern age, retarded waves couldn't spread as far. Big bursts of retardedness (Austria-Hungary, the Tetrarchy, people accidentally chopping down all their trees and dying out) couldn't spread too far.
Now we are in a global retardation state, where shit happens for no good reason and without any goal in mind. Around the world we see retarded people making retarded choices with retarded logic.
