>fascism

Isn't utilitarianism just fascism?
If the sum of comfort is end goal, is seems justify to condemn 1% of the population to suffering in order to make 99% happy. It also seems justifiable to make 2% of the population suffer to make 98% happy. And so on

Life and existence is pointless because everybody will die one day and the universe will eventually end in a heat death.

it isnt underrated, its general consensus that america joining the war won the war for the allies

>>1899768
Because America missed most of the suffering which the media focuses on. They pretty much came at the end of the war for the land few offensives.

>>1899768
What defeat germany was the bristish navy and the endless shitstorm of the western front, it was an attrition war and the german loose it, america just came at the end when the german were already defeated.

gonna hijack your thread for a second OP since i dont see another thread up and my questions is loosely related.

Did any of the greek Titans die? Memory is hazy and google isnt helping one bit. From what i remember Titans just cant die and the closest was Cronus being chopped up and thrown into the tartarus

it was the other way around actually, the romans named celestial bodies after their gods and western astronomers that came after the romans who discovered the outer planets and satellites continued that convention.

Jupiter was named thus because it was the brightest planet, jupiter the god was god of the heavens in addition to being king of the gods. Venus was named for the god of beauty since its such a beautiful body, Mercury was named for the speedy messenger of the gods because it is the fastest moving planet, and moves very quickly into and out of the horizon, only being visible for brief periods. Mars was named for the god of war because of its red color. Saturn's name meaning is a bit more obscure, I'm not really sure why that was chosen, but its named after the god saturnus who is Jupiter's father and the god of agriculture to the romans.

>did the ancients know something about astronomy that we don't
like what, I'm not sure I understand what you mean. Are you asking why they named the planets after gods but not the stars? Since atleast greek times it was noted that there were a few specific celestial bodies that moved around significantly more than the others. The greek astronomers calles these planetes asteres, or wandering stars.

Ouranus died. Though I guess you could argue whether or not the Father of Titans was one himself.

No. No pre-enlightenment society I'm aware of (and damn few of them) used imprisonment as an actual judicial penalty for crimes. You'd have people kept as prisoners of war until ransoms or some other conditions were made, and you would have people held until a trial could be convened, but it was simply a way to keep the prisoner there until some further arrangement could be made.

Punishments themselves were usually either financial, corporal, or capital.

>>1908840
Both Rome and China used long term imprisonments as punishments.

However most of the time you spent incarcerated is done doing government manual labor. Like in mines, quarries, or transporting loads of stone etc. Ergo: outside bars. You are housed in a prison though.

Imprisonment truly is a luxury of centralized organized civilizations, and not tribals or feudalcuck states.

locking people up in boxes, cages, cells, throwing them into holes and so on, was the most normal thing for thousands and thousands of years

I can honestly say for the most part if I choose not to do something bad it's because I dont want to get caught but it depends on what it is.

My own arrogant opinion on this is that I think innately we do things that benefit us simply for that reason but it all depends on the extremes that certain people take to be evil or good. I would say I think everyone has the capability to love and be compassionate and vice versa but your environment and many other factors can affect this. I think there is no conclusive answer to this question. Humans are too complex.

I don't do them because I consider them bad and I don't want other people doing it.

The links provided show that native Americans had many contributions to modern society. And we're not simply banging rocks together and running with the wind. They had the most accurate calendars of the ancient world and intricate architecture

>B-but native Americans were savages they didn't even have cities only villages and they were nomadic

This is also untrue Hollywood for some reason has completely skipped over all notable Native American cities and painted them as chasing buffalo.

There's many more links but as you can tell the original natives of American were almost if not on the same level as the ancient Greeks and Chinese.

The main reason for this divide was the forging of weapons. Iron and steel played a huge role in the development of the western world. The reason this was prominent is that two of the most advanced ancient civilizations were within trading distance and this ability to trade allowed advancements the happen very rapidly and also horses played a big role in shaping the western world. However Native Americans still became very advanced with what they had

(4/7) Animal domestication
Native Americans also had very good relationships with animals. You can usually track how advanced civilizations were with the domestication of animals

https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Native_American_dogs

http://www.dogbreedinfo.com/nativeamericanindiandog.htm

South Americans also domesticated alpacas and Guinea Pigs. And if you read the link above about domestication of deer then you could clearly see it in the white tail deer who obviously looks very genetically superior to other deer.

The devilish system really did make the majority of the powerful men in the Empire non-Turkish but it really did not matter for the Ottomans. As a side note the final sultan of the Ottoman Empire was not even 1 percent Turk so I can agree with you on some aspects.
