It was 100% about slavery and anybody who says otherwise is just being revisionist.

>>1926510
Dredd Scott was not an infringement of State's Rights. It was upholding Sandford's constitutional rights, which states could not abrogate.

>>1926510
It was about the major differences between the north and the south, slavery chief among them.
The south was almost wholly agrarian compared to the industrial north and their political power was slipping away as the north grew faster and added more non slave states.
To say that the war is about slavery is asinine. The two regions where headed in opposite directions and men fought for the south as they felt they no longer fit with the north.

>Workers struggles for higher wages generally work to the benefit of their employers, increasing production and quality

>Businessmen struggling for higher profits generally come at the cost of the worker, outsourcing jobs and cutting back benefits.

It's half baked nonsense that can easily be dismissed by a 15 year old, just like the rest of the garbage that Rand spewed.

>private property is important therefore the Indians and Africans deserved to be conquered because they didn't value it enough

What did she mean by this?

>Workers struggles for higher wages generally work to the benefit of their employers, increasing production and quality

Paying someone higher wages does not have a direct casual effect on production and quality.

I'd love to bone some ancient brown skin American natives.

Not too sure. I considered the Conquesadors and the Aztecs to be pretty fucked in the head. (rape, human sacrifice, etc)

That being said, Aztecs had some pretty interesting shit. Not going to lie, would have loved to have seen Technochitalin in it's prime.

>In his/her capacity as educator, moralist, and role model -- i.e. as "teacher of people's faces" (teixtlamachtiani) -- the sage is akin to an artist who skillfully shapes a formless block of stone into a beautiful statue. The sage shapes a child's "faceless", lump of human flesh into a genuinely human "face and heart". Of the sage the Nahuas said:

The wise man: a light, a torch, a stout torch that does not smoke.
A perforated mirror, a mirror pierced on both sides.
His are the black and red ink, his are the illuminated manuscripts, he studies the illuminated manuscripts.
He himself is writing and wisdom.
He is the path, the true way for others.
He directs people and things; he is a guide in human affairs.
Teacher of truth, he never ceases to admonish.
He makes wise the countenances of others; to them he gives a face; he leads them to develop it.
He opens their ears; he enlightens them.
He puts a mirror before others, he makes them prudent, cautious; he causes a face to appear on them.
He attends to things; he regulates their path, he arranges and commands.
He applies his light to the world.
Thanks to him people humanize their will and receive a strict education.

Is this another "I am gonna imply that Spain is not a rich and developped country centuries after it was the hegemon of its time?

>>1932187
They didn't. All the natives were killed or marked as a lower caste. They took tons of gold, resources, labor, etc. They fucked all the native women they wanted to. They were living the dream.

How could that be a failure?

Dunno, puritanism has a rather complicated relationship with the human body, sexuality and nudity. Catholics and Europeans are much more relaxed in that opinion.

I was walking two weeks in the Assynt region, pretty sad when you see all the ruins of the old villages. Also, I highly support crofters who want to get their land back, albeit I think you cannot undo what happened.

What the fuck was his problem?

The crusading ideal was born as a defensive warfare ideal. Bringing it to the Palestine (and the Baltics) was offensive warfare.

>>1929208
The trigger for crusades was undoubtedly defensive - the Byzantine defeat at Manzikert and consequently the almost complete collapse of Byzantine power in Asia.

>>1929208
It was religious revanchism. Whether that's defensive or offensive depends on the side you identify with.

Read the book first to come with your own opinion first, anon.

These threads should be bannable.

being mostly verbal probably made it worse
