What lead to the rise of Defeatism and Pacifism in France after WW I?
Why did French people seems so "weak willed" in WW II compare to pre WW I French ?

I don't think they were weak willed I think they just got beat by superior German tactics. So the Germans conquered the French men via military and the French women romantically.

The same thing happened to Britain after ww2, which is why they so willingly embraced being America's pet and gave up their colonial holdings.

How the fuck do I even defend myself? Are people now not allowed to say that anytime before 2000 was a good time because of "muh sexism and racism"? I mean I understand it was an issue, but you can't just ignore objective economic prosperity, right!?
How could I better defend my historical opinion in the future?

This is what a whole generation is being raised to believe. I had a class where the teacher was talking about the origin of medicine. Numerous students were visibly upset that the topic surrounded only men despite the fact that their contributions indirectly helped THEIR lives. How can you even be so dumb to dismiss men that gave their whole lives so that one day a dumb whore like you can reap the benefits?

How did the black plague spread from China to Europe?
It takes months to years to get from one corner to the other, theres no way people could survive long enough
The symptoms appear within a week and it has nearly 100% mortality rate

How come soldiers from Great Britain made up for less than half of total British Empire forces during WW1?
Not enough brave British men could be found in the motherland?

no, it was easier to send in people you didn't have to account for (i.e. pakis and those pesky boers). Also the practice of sending conscripts from countries you have subjugated into battle has been done since the advent of Empires.
tldr it's easier to send some poor bastard halfway around the world to fight for a country he'll never see again than your neighbor's son.

Toba Disaster
The first wave of homo anatomically modern humans out of africa was cut off by super volcano eruptions.
When the populations rebounded and started migrating again. they went in a different direction and mixed with Neanderthal and Desnovian.

Wtf are you taking about. Ainu are a modernday tribe. They are just another ethnicity of Japan exept they have alittle more Jomon blood than Japanese.
These hairy people that looked like australian aboriginals lived in china and japan
There are historical records of royal campaigns of genocide against these people in china.
In Japan they were called Emishi
And yes I live in Japan

deserve? no, but it was a necessary evil for the bolsheviks to achieve their goals. he couldn't have been left alive, his line had to be snuffed out for good.

does anyone?
I understand why it was done though, Russia suffered quite terribly during the war. It's also understandable why his entire family including young children were butchered as well. Now there can be no going back.

Couldn't they have exiled him and his family instead of killing them.

Who was the worst Roman emperor? Not in the sense of who damaged the empire the most, but who was the biggest cunt of them all?

Probably Augustus or Commodus

I feel like Constantine always reeked of self-advancement, and his stabilization of the roman empire was only matched by his renovation of it in his own image. Not that he was the only megalomaniac to hold the purple, or the only emperor to practice nepoticide.

Why would God created us knowing we would sin? Can't he predict the future?
If he loves us so much, why would he call us abominations after programming us with gay impulse
Why would God curse us knowing all the damage it would do to the species afterwards?

No one is programmed with gay impulses, loose the crutch and stop being a victim. God gave you free will, you are the master of your own ship, quit being cucked by societies sexual delusions.

Aaaaaamen my man!

God did not create us so we would sin, God created us with free will. Sin is an side effect of it, it is not gods intention. It is simply a necessary part of giving us free will.
When you ask if God can predict the future you are looking at Gods existence in time in the wrong way - he does not exist in a linear fashion in time along with us, but rather outside of it. He does not predict, he knows because it has already happened for him.
God does not call anyone abominations - if anything it can be argued that since Jesus Christ fulfilled the laws of the old testament, we are not bound by them and the only rule we must follow is to love God.
If God did not curse us he would not be just, Adam and Eve went against the rules he had laid down. It would not be right if a judge did not send a man to prison for killing someone out or concern for the mans future. God sentences us because he is jufuturlbut simultaneously offers us his forgiveness and redemption through his love.
I hope that answered your questions!

Lol, computer science requires much more intelligence than becoming a "doctor" which mostly requires almost mindless memorization, you dumb cuck.
Also lolling at philosophy that high, I could majore in such a meme like degree within a year without any stress
