When you consider the damage done on their own turf you can understand why the French wanted to secure some delicious industrial land right on their border

>You can trust a country that has invaded you twice in the past 40 years

The French were right to be skeptical of the evil Teutons.

>>2294748
Are you excusing organized military invasion against a disarmed opponent without declaring war with the goal of stealing taxes and killing civilians to achieve it?

Need I remind you that according to international treaties, during Germany's disarmament period, since they weren't allowed a large enough army to defend themselves, France was meant to defend them?

Humor can't be subject to control, or used to control people.

Name me one example of humor being used as a method to control people to the same extent as fear.

>>2294393
i half agree with you... but look at the pandering garbage that is late night with john oliver

i know its subjective but i think that's a good example of, even if by accident, humor doing a good job of swaying public opinion

Satire relies on challenging the status quo and the powers that be. It's a healthy part of speech and expression in a free society but is suppressed in authoritarian ideologies (including the worldview advocated by militant Islamists) for that reason.

Oliver's show started decent but got stale quickly. It's mostly preaching to the choir. Stewart was better.

>claims to be a religion of peace
>only became popular thanks to a warlod

Is Christianity the single biggest contradiction in history?

>>2293194
Most religious texts contradict themselves. However, I do believe that the mental gymnastics involved in trying to convince people that Islam is peaceful are quite impressively contradictory and stupid.

>>2293203
Christians don't claim that though, at least not to the same extent. or use that as a title for anything

Stay forever butthurt, romaboos but you wouldn't want to meet someone in an actual swordfight with that piece of crap

>>2293044
Aesthetically Gladius is one of my least favorite swords but it did do its job when used with (and against) a large shield, which is how it was intended to be used.

>the Chinese empire

>>2284199

Emperor Wu of Han drove the nomads out of their homelands and set off a chain reaction of tribes moving west. By the time they reached Europe, the likes of the Huns were at the forefront, but Rome was going thru a weak period and was unable to fend them off, much less drive them back.

>>2284199
Because Chinese make good subjects. Germanics and their free will... not so much.

>The assimilation of the nascent Scandinavian kingdoms into the cultural mainstream of European Christendom altered the aspirations of Scandinavian rulers and of Scandinavians able to travel overseas, and changed their relations with their neighbours. One of the primary sources of profit for the Vikings had been slave-taking. The medieval Church held that Christians should not own fellow Christians as slaves, so chattel slavery diminished as a practice throughout northern Europe. This took much of the economic incentive out of raiding, though sporadic slaving activity continued into the 11th century. Scandinavian predation in Christian lands around the North and Irish Seas diminished markedly.

>The kings of Norway continued to assert power in parts of northern Britain and Ireland, and raids continued into the 12th century, but the military ambitions of Scandinavian rulers were now directed toward new paths. In 1107, Sigurd I of Norway sailed for the eastern Mediterranean with Norwegian crusaders to fight for the newly established Kingdom of Jerusalem, and Danes and Swedes participated energetically in the Baltic Crusades of the 12th and 13th centuries.[59]

I'd assume it's pretty easy. Lurk is using a vpn or something in the first place, tor browser and all. Unplug your internet overnight, use a proxy.

IDK how tight twitter is, but I really doubt they're hardcore with their bans.
