Why does any person view himself as "always right"? Should be obvious desu.

Why were executioners treated like shit? It was a necessary job. People before 20th century truly were stupid fucking apes.

The outcast status of executioners was also symbolic in nature. As much as committing crimes was regarded as wrong, killing people was regarded as wrong too, and this reminded people of it.

It made them feel better about the system whose luxuries they enjoyed. Like people today shouting fuck the police and deriding the military industrial complex or oil monopolies for giving them the privileges of world hegemony. Its virtue signaling. I'll take the benefits, but deride the drawbacks. You didn't see alot of people fleeing their nations because of execution, and you don't see Americans leaving America because of its absurd wealth built on the petrodollar.

Yeah, this. I'm willing to bet the notion of "ritual pollution" played a role a lot of the time. Yes it was necessary work so you didn't look down on them in some sort of morally superior way, but rather they must be kept away from "pure" elements of society so their ugly but necessary work did not contaminate your priests or ealdormen or whatever.

The Romans had this attitude. Priests were forbidden from having contact with, say, grave diggers, or even from seeing them. Maybe it became just a less formal aversion but it's a pretty common attitude toward certain "untouchable" trades throughout history.

>In April 2016, the Principality of Hutt River finally received an official nod from Australia’s head of state. Prince Leonard, the sovereign of Hutt River, received a letter with the Queen’s good wishes on the anniversary of the Principality seceding from Australia 46 years ago, on April 21, 1970. The letter from Buckingham Palace is signed by Mrs Sonia Bonici, Senior Correspondence Officer. It reads in part: “I am to convey Her Majesty’s good wishes to you and to all concerned for a most enjoyable and successful celebration on 23rd and 24th of April to mark the forty-sixth anniversary of the Principality of Hutt River.” The Queen was replying to a letter from Prince Leonard congratulating her on her 90th birthday.

Tried to ask about this in /int/ and got a shitload of /pol/ responses. I'm hoping I can get real answers here and not more "who cares they should be genocided" /pol/ shit.

Trying to learn more about Kurds and Kurdistan, whether it be history, culture, current events, or Iranian, Ottoman, Turkish historical and cultural context that effected Kurdish culture or history. Looking for books, articles, journals, documentaries, or podcasts that might be considered "essential" for learning more about this topic.

I get that this is 4chan and its funny to be an unhelpful dick but please don't bother posting if its just gonna be some /pol/ joke like "hurr who cares brown ppl gas them".

"But these at least, Socrates, are not difficult to know, that we do not always use the same laws, but different. Since, for example, to us it is not the law to sacrifice humans, but impious, but Carthaginians on the other hand do sacrifice them as being holy for them and not unlawful, and some do this even to their own sons for Kronos, as perhaps you also have heard. - Plato's (who had no incentive of inciting a war with Carthage) Minos 315c.

Basically the idea is that the material universe was created by a flawed, petty being known as the "demiurge", and that behind the scenes there exists a perfect metaphysical force known as the monad or "sophia". There is many different gnostic traditions with varying canons though so some might radically different beliefs.

Most likely because it's popular and a fair amount of the byzaboo's are pretty shitty, similar to how vikingboo's think vikings were epic fighters and no one could stop them. Personally, I'm a minoaboo, a mycenaboo, and I hate to admit it, a weaboo (I love Japan from 500 to 1200 BC).
