How does one country cause so much unbridled butthurt even today?
By farting
Either by colonising some country, or by conquering them.
The former should be grateful, the latter humble. But since foreigners are incapable of higher thought, these congeal into jealousy.

>or by conquering them.
Wut?
Has Britain ever conquered any country outside of the 3rd world shitholes it colonized?
And no, tagging along Americans, Russians or Prussian to defeat a stronger opponent doesnt apply
Who is your favourite US president, and why? Mine is probably Theodore Roosevelt, or Andrew Jackson.
Theodore Roosevelt for establishing the foreign policy of 'speak softly and carry a big stick', as well as implementing national parks and other social reforms.
Andrew Jackson for smashing the central bank.

>implement social reform, no I'm not going to elaborate

Meme tier analysis. You seem to lack any real understanding of what you're talking about
>>2278522
Why would I need to elaborate? It's pretty obvious that's what they did.
Eisenhower
An incredible life and a very astute man
Who was best prez, and why was it Theodore Roosevelt?

Is offensive comedy (by which I mostly mean poking fun at minority stereotypes) beneficial or harmful to society? Why?
''Haha its just a joke take it easy man''
- White person
''EY THAT RACIST AGAINST US WHITE PEOPLE STOP''
-White person
>>2278345
Its somewhat beneficial to highlights the ills of our society. But wrong kind of people use that to justify their beliefs.
Here's a quick example,
Poor Haitians eat mudcakes for food where as Americans throw 40% of the food away. The Haitians should come to america and work for the farm instead as slaves, as that would make their lives more worthwhile.
The people of the south would enjoy that sort of humor as it would bolster their belief that slavery was for a good cause.

You mean unlimited open boarders, spread the American way of life around the world neocons? The green text doesn't sound like neocons at all.

I wasn't raised in religion (inb4 fedora) but there's always been a bible around at home and I'm interested in understanding one of the most influential movements in human history.
I don't understand how people can claim to be Christians and conservative at the same time. Wasn't Jesus's message to be wary of tradition and to question man's law or separate it from God's law? Didn't he encourage people to give away their riches, and to try and be as peaceful, sharing, and understanding as possible?
How is it coherent, then, to say you're Christian while being nationalistic, or against wealth repartition, or saying that upholding tradition matters more than progress, or that religion has a place in politics?
Bonus question: Is this all Saint Paul's fault, because of his belief in the necessity of established dogma? Why are his writings so important when they're rarely taken from the word of Christ like the Gospels are?
I'm sincerely asking, keep the memeing minimal please
first of all you must understand what is "conservatism"?
conservatism is more like "i love the way we are now, pls don't change it so much, or if you can don't change it at all"
so basically your christianity can be considered not conservatism if it's not fit with the christianity of your national identity or your regional identity
>>2278275
>if you can don't change it at all
Yeah but Jesus incited his followers to get rid of a lot of Old Testament rules, that's actually almost the only thing that separated Jews and Christians when the concept of Christianity first developped. That and preaching tolerance and understanding sound pretty progressive to me. Isn't the process of getting rid of old rules more important and relevant than the new rules that were established after?
> your christianity can be considered not conservatism if it's not fit with the christianity of your national identity

>>2278262
>Wasn't Jesus's message to be wary of tradition and to question man's law or separate it from God's law?
No. Actually Jesus taught that which "has existed from the foundation of the Universe." If you understand the perennial tradition you understand he means God's law to get into heaven (which always manifested itself to some way to mankind).
Were the Romans essentially ancient hillbillies? I keep in reading about the Julio-Claudian dynasty and there's a lot of stuff like cousin fucking going on. Then there's also ancient chariot races which are basically NASCAR.
>>2278221
hillbillies aren't into NASCAR, rednecks are
>>2278569
Whats the difference between the two.
>>2278576
Hillbillies are the guys from Deliverance
Rednecks are the guys from King of the Hill
If I went back in time to BC Rome, what kind of weapons could I invent with contemporary knowledge and ancient resources that would benefit the republic militarily the most?

what war are you trying to make them win that they didn't?
Is it still possible for a private company to conquer an entire country (say in Africa)?
>>2278184
Yes, those are called 'dictatorships'
>>2278191
Most dictators gained power legally or made some kind of coup. What I'm asking is, if a foreign company can barge into some third world country and conquer it.
>>2278184
A group of companies conquered America.
I don't think you can
People might say Augustus. But i think Caesar is the true founder of Roman Empire.
>>2278178
He started the process but it was Augustus who actually consolidated most of the power associated with the emperor.

Why were the mongols so powerful and feared?
Did europeans stand any chance against Genghis Khan and the mongol hordes in the early 1200s?
I think this is a valid question. How would western europe be changed in not only culture but warfae mknd you if the mlngols conducted raids or siege's on there door staep?
Genghis Khan didn't reach Europe, his descendents did.
Yes they did stand a chance because they were not invincible. The attacks on Hungary and Poland were raids and not very successful because of the European castles, choke points created by rivers and broken terrain, forests unsuitable to cavalry and casualties from crossbows. It would have taken an effort similar to their decades long conquest of China to take over Europe, all while they had more pressing concerns elsewhere in the empire.
After reading my post i decided the need to make a key pad on a phone for full figured thumbs...
Is there any truth to this?
Hitler wasnt a reactionary he was a revolutionary

At most they aligned with the interests of reactionaries in fighting communism and appearing as the lesser evil.

Is this bait? Because if it is, you're not fooling anyone.
To what extent does it exist? Is it really human nature to be greedy, selfish etc.
I find it hard to believe capitalism is really the end of history, every other system has been replaced so why won't this one?

Did the Turks commit genocides against the white race?

>>2277915
But why would they do that, they're part of the """white""" """"race"""" as well.
