Seriously, WTF.

I've seen some of their travelling folk and they seem to be isolationist family people, which I can sympathise with.

But their permanent habitations are nothing but disgusting, self-inflicted squalor, and their only actual businesses seem to be begging, theft, robbery and social parasitism.

Because it involves scriptures and deep philosophical writings

Not like those tribal animist religions that are fragile AF

When christianity came the tribal retard were like "holyshit, im fucking mind blown. Hail savior"

But Hindus already belive in god intervening in earth to save us, so they were like "ok whats new, we already have krisna and the word of god"

Dueling.

Why was this ever allowed?

> Muh right to bear arms to fight tyranny

France 1789: The Third State (general population) were forbidden to possess arms.

Russia 1917: All non-military russians could face the death penalty for owning guns.

India 1945: The general population had virtually no firearms at all

etc...

So why do you need guns against tyranny exacty ?

>>2032318
They were, until the Russians came. Walking around Riga the roads would be paved with cobblestones and lined with trees, the houses would be made of brick and stone. You'd only know you weren't in Germany because of the language.
