>A. Is it appropriate for me to indicate to them that, at some (if not most) four-year institutions, this sort of behavior and scholarship is frowned upon?


If they're interested in such, yes.

> B. Has anyone else experienced this sort of thing?

Oh god yes. I'm heavily involved in a waragaming magazine, so I probably have a greater than normal contact with such folks, but yes, they exist. You've only seen the tip of the iceberg if it's only some crappy great man papers. Every month I have at least half a dozen people arguing that some game or another needs "correction" because they read some crackpot alt-his theory somewhere, usually based in bizarre assumptions about how if this one course of action was taken, literally everything ever would go right, because that happens in military operations. I've literally received threats because I tell them that no, we don't plan on running their proposed articles because we don't want to bombard our viewers with nonsense.


Less on the WW2 focus though, but again, I have something of an eclectic audience.

I'm interested in your stories though, if you care to share any.

well Jesus was standing there right? he's still alive in heaven. checkmate atheists!

Keep reading. They thought John was going to live forever. There's a reason for that.

Jesus must have been looking at John when he said it.

And John saw Jesus coming down from heaven in glory before he died, and wrote of the experience in the Revelation.

Some neither precludes all nor one.

Matthew 16:28

>28 Assuredly, I say to you, there are some standing here who shall not taste death till they see the Son of Man coming in His kingdom.

Three of those standing there were Peter, James, and John

The next verses, Matthew 17:1-2:

>1 Now after six days Jesus took Peter, James, and John his brother, led them up on a high mountain by themselves; 2 and He was transfigured before them. His face shone like the sun, and His clothes became as white as the light.

This is called the Transfiguration. This is what 16:28 referred to.

it doesn't benefit globalized capitalism so globalist capitalist powers fuck with it as much as possible until it crumbles.

also, communism literally works until NK crumbles, you can't say otherwise without being objectively wrong.
>j-juche isn't communism!!1!
no, it just isn't your specific idea of what communism is. weighted benefits towards those that reinforce the system + international trade conducted by the ruling party are adaptations that made it so NK didn't crumble.

Because humans, every goddamn time.

One day, the machines, with their superior intellect and infinitely better grasp of resource prioritization, will show how it's done. (Those still alive, if any, that is.)

Because (((capitalists))) actively destroying it.

Why Montgomery was so awful. British historians hype the mong up so much. His stratagem was outdated and costly.

bulgarians came from the volga region
also cyrillic script was invented there

>>1882691
Over a million people and a significant percentage of their population have moved to countries like America. I should know since my neighbors are Bulgarian

The original bulgarians were a bunch of turkics who raped the original population, but decided to adopt slavic language anyway.

probably...

You mean the war of southern autism?

The north was fired upon, after they refused to surrender their property.

Really makes you think

Yanks didn't like how us true Americans democratically shelled fort Sumter

>>1884428
Lincoln was determined not to let the country split, hence the suspending of habeus corpus, etc. Slavery has been a poison in North America for a long, long, long time, and continues to poison the well today.

Sounds like you're looking for emotional tracts instead of history, especially since you're looking fir evidence to support your predetermined conclusion. Every culture killed and raped people bro.
