Sounds pretty based desu

>>2000324
Not even close.

Read a book.

Not at all, Germans could have won on the eastern front as late as 1944

>>2000324
no, it was the most necessary decision in order to secure a future for Europe, and the gamble, while realistic, failed

They were simply too progressive and so they died out as nobody felt compelled to associate with them.

I think the abrahamic religions offered a more unifying experience for people that was preferable to various contending gods and goddesses of polytheism.

Many of them were sublimated into Lemegeton and similar grimoires.

without holy see? i think some of the practises might lose some legitimacy (though they wouldnt necessarily stop completely, but i think change). i think it would break into smaller groups probably as well.

>>2000554
We would not survive.

In the past few hundred years, Lutherans have split into over 40000 different protestant denominations. This split was allowed to happen because there was no one to stop it. No one to arbitrate disagreements in scripture or tradition.

Aside from stopping fragmentation, the pope also acts as a living voice for the Church. This voice allows us to interpret new information correctly, and reconcile that with our faith.

>>2000704

>correctly

hmmmmmm. no.

i dont think theres necessarily much wrong with breaking into smaller groups but if they are really small sometimes you get some nasty hierarchies with otherly charismatic and weird pastors whatever which can't get put in line.

Ruined russia and eastern europe
Mostly Marx's fault though

Ruined Russia and Eastern Europe as well as far-left politics worldwide. A right-wing military dictatorship probably would have been less harmful.

Also he in general strikes me as a prick. Him and his retarded goons idolized Robespierre but he would have had their heads off within a year considering the shit they pulled. He sold out his ideals to keep his ass-backwards 'revolution' alive. I understand the idea of compromise now leading to ultimate victory later but look how that worked out in the end.

>>1999032
Because Russia used to be such a wonderful place before the revolution.

And let's say Russia was ruined, putting the blame on an old beardy german fuck for writing some books is absurd.

>>2006198
Zionism.

>>2006198
Turanism

>>2006218
Didn't even know about this, thanks.

>>2005493
Yep, especially once you hit 20.

>>2005493

No, but nihilism is not a depressing position but a life-affirming one. Nothing in life matters! All those worries and guilts and desperate yearnings, trivial and irrelevant against the reality of Cosmic indifference! This is a wonderful thing, it frees us from the mind-prisons that shackle so many people and allows us to find meaning in our lives without worrying that we're valuing the "wrong" things.

>>2005493
You can build off of it, but you cant "stop being one" if you truely understand it. People who claim its a phase or say they have just decided to disregard it are either:
A. People who never really understood it and just want to participate in discussion
B. Delusional weaklings who would rather live in a fantasy than in reality

>(preferably from the early and mid-20th century)
I always hear how in ancient times people hardly ever lived to old age but given how many historical figures from olden times I see with birth to death dates which show they lived to their 70s or sometimes later, I want to say that everyone is just fooled by the high child mortality rates, but if someone lived past childhood they were generally likely to have a good lifespan barring events like famines or plagues.

a favorite of mine is Pepi II, a pharaoh of egypt in the 2200s BC who came to the throne at the age of 6 and lived to be 94. He reigned for such an obscenely long time that when he finally did die nearly all of his children and grandchildren were already dead. He had been an inept demented relic for so long that his governors had been doing all the real work in the kingdom, amassing more and more control over their local regions, so when he died most of them declared independence. The old kingdom of Egypt completely collapsed just a few years after his death leading to a dark age that lasted over a century until one of the warring states was finally able to reunify the country.

>>2004102
Generally true, but unexpected deaths were quite common prior to the modern era. You read about many people who died suddenly from "fever".

Now I'm no expert on the hussars in particular so but generally, and not considering meme/propoganda reputation for obvious reasons, if you develop a reputation as a fighting force like they did it's usually for good reason.

They certainly were quite effective at the Battle of Vienna in 1683, though that victory ultimately benefited the austrians and HRE far more than the commonwealth.

>>2002148
Outside of Poland people hardly know about them. How could they be overrated?

>>1998019
When History and Humanites are no longer being taught by revisionists, and most humanities students are forced to take minors that will actually get them a job, instead of whining.

So likely never.

they hate everything good and decent about white Christian America and will not stop until it is thoroughly deconstructed and destroyed

>>1998043
This. Kinda.

Albeit I kind of find Thanksgiving off putting because it's become an unapologetic exercise in gluttony.

It's an attempt by the "left/western" leaning muslims to delegitimize "right wing/fundie" Muslims.

any human civiization with the means will spread their empire through war inevitably. this is how many religions and cultures have grown. muslims conquered people, and subsequently the populations become muslim. it's no different in many other cases around the world. humans breed war at an almost constant rate.

>>1997526
Humans are pretty shit. Why don't we make a Holocaust, but for all people?
