Is there anything more infantile in the modern world than the belief of religion?
Voting for "strong" leaders because of daddy issues and fear of "the other".

good points i like it!!!!!!

the first episode they did
>>2222565
The one where Lindybeige gets a guest appearance. And has to disprove every point John makes because muh British Empire.
The west was not first, nor wealthiest, nor possessed of greater numbers, superior resources, superior climate. But instead, by accident of circumstance, chose Sovereignty as their principle of organization – a choice which is possible only under empirical, testimonial speech we call ‘truth’, and a market for the resolution of any negotiation, exchange, or conflict – depriving all of authority over anything other than the preservation of sovereignty. Europeans created the distributed dictatorship of sovereign men, open to any man willing and able to reciprocally insure every other against violations of his sovereignty.
This choice resulted in a civilization that calculates advancements faster than all other organizing models, and produces the least opportunity for parasitism and rents. And it is this velocity in the ancient and modern worlds that has allowed the west to defeat the red queen of corruption, and drag mankind kicking and screaming out of ignorance, superstition, mysticism, justificationism, conflationism, deception, hunger, poverty, physical labor, cellular decay, disease, and increasingly, the vicissitudes of nature, in an unforgiving universe hostile to life in all but the rarest of exceptions.
Propertarianism is an answer to, refutation of, and solution to cantor’s restoration of mathematical platonism, Marx’s pseudoscientific economics and sociology, Boaz’s pseudoscientific anthropology and sociology, Freud’s pseudoscientific psychology, and the Frankfurt School’s pseudoscientific aesthetics.
This constitutes the main actors in the Cosmopolitan (Jewish enlightenment) attack on Western Civilization.
It is the second Judaic attack on western civilization, and the third eastern attack on the west.
The first eastern attack was the eastern indo european invention of scripture: authoritarian mystical religion as a successor to explanatory mythology.
The first Judaic attack was the fabrication authoritarian mysticism with the promise of utopia after death by the professionalization of lying about scripture;
The second Judaic attack is the pseudoscientific attack on western civilization which promised the underclasses not only an escape from evolutionary and material constraints, but a utopia of consumption and a permanently expanding technology that would end all wants – using new mass media for the industrialization of lying.
Propertarianism’s purpose is to end lying in all its elaborate forms within the commons: including the supernatural, pseudo-rational, the pseudo-mathematical, and the pseudoscientific.
ok
When the first Aryans combined horse, bronze and wheel, they were able to cover long distances with speed. They took big risks, and horse, chariot (cart), and armor were very expensive – but they were able to prey upon neighboring people, as well as defend their own. So they used this military technology to expanded from western China to Spain.
It turns out that if you’re militarily capable of it, and develop a professional warrior caste, that capturing better territory and enslaving primitive locals for labor, was a profitable industry. But only some subset of the population is fit for being ruled cost effectively and at low risk. So where consanguineous tribes had tolerated wide variations in personalities, the rulers did not, found the most aggressive the most troublesome, and by constant prosecution of outliers, the rulers achieved with man, what they had achieved with dog, sheep, pig, cow, and horse: gradual domestication of the animal man.
ohhhh which one is it /his/??
me first
Battle of Alesia
The Finnish Winter War

audibly kek'd at your image, thanks OP.
Also, the Battle of Rzhev, a.k.a the Rzhev meatgrinder
Basically Stalin decided to impress the world with his genius tactician skills, but then decided to pin all the blame on Zhukov and make it out to be his fault when he wanted to take him down a notch post-war.
This one should work.
What's the best literature to read about Adolf Hitler, and the Third Reich?
Is The Rise and Fall of the Third Reich any good, or is it biased?
The Richard Evans trilogy is a good one for absolute starters.
>>2222417
Thanks.
>>2222389
I'm 900 pages in and though the author lived through the war he puts most of his bias aside. It's a gripping book, started it new year's day and probably have finished all 1400 pages by next week
I know this might be a bit off-topic, but whenever I ask this on regular historical forums, I get bullied for being a thief or some shit: is there any reliable source where I can get books, handbooks and editions of historical sources? I need the letters of Cicero ad familiares (with the translation), but the loeb CL version can't be found for free anywhere. I'm not gonna pay 25 bucks for a book I will use for one paper. Do any /his/torians know some sites that could help with that?

>>2222792
maybe caliber? I haven't actually dled the documents i just looked it up on libgen seeing as you couldn't find it anywhere else
Is Islam destined to rule the world?
It's the only religion that really survives modernity, while all the others are barely holding it together and can't count on committed devotees like Islam can.
Islam isn't "surviving" modernity, it refuses to enter it.
Maybe
Nobody ACTUALLY believes in paranormal shit except for muslims and most africans
Belief in such things is usually the result of low education, high imagination, and low intelligence
Religions are just social clubs now

I for one welcome our new Fremen overlords.
>"Everything was better pre-WW2, when men were REAL men!"
If I see that "hard times create hard men" picture one more time, I am going to fucking scream.
If that was that case, shitheels why didn't literally every country that was slowly being subjugated by an outside force become great? Oh right, because it isn't fucking true. You don't magically turn Super Saiyan just because things are going bad.
how does this make you feel?

What do you think?
>>2221009
Would you be happy if you got cucked by God himself like he was?
>>2221023
I'd be kind of pissed to be honest. If God is omnipotent, there's no reason he couldn't just bless my seed so it would produce the Messiah. Or, if it's necessary that it be a virgin birth for whatever reason, he could have just chosen a girl who wasn't fucking married, goddamn it.
"no"
with gun powder large scale ore extraction became possible.
Without gunpowder you could'nt smith the gun and the ammo shell itself.
Gunpowder is a ''the chicken or the egg '' first problem.
Nuclear bombs were a mistake
>mfw people call his ideas outdated and claim the LTV fails to predict anything
>in comparison to modern economics, which is up to date but still fails to predict anything
When did you realize that modern economics is magical pseudoscience worse than Marxism?
If you're /pol/ please fuck off
I really doubt modern economics is worse than marxism.

No, it really is.

Celts are cool. I don't care that Romans beat them and they where to dumb to write anything down. There have cozy houses and shit.
>>2219987
So in regards as to why you like them, what separates Celts from other European groups of the time?
>>2219987
