How were black people treated in the roman empire?
like kangz (n shied)
>>1864891
Like any other gladiators
>>1864891
People will tell you they were treated like any other person because discrimination by race as we know it on the modern times didn't exist, and it was all about how you behaved.
While it's not literally wrong, it's a half truth that hides a very important fact. For most of roman history, being black is a gigantic mark that screams: "Look at me, I'm a barbarian". They were not the only barbarian peoples who had to suffer this, of course.
Why was the twenties so GOAT?

It wasn't.

How would you save the Western theater if you were managing the Southern war effort?
>>1865175
I'd surrender
Send troops from Lees army in Virginia and attack Illinois
kill all the niggers and build a giant fortress using their dead bodies.
Philosophy time!
Let's talk about truth. What actually IS truth and how can we know what is true?
>>1865104
The truth is that which actually reflects reality. You determine the truth by picking the philosophy you like best.
something you shouldn't talk about on Japanese anime image board
>>1865104
There is no truth, and it's up to the individual to form beliefs around what they perceive is my answer.
If you could spend exactly 10 years - no more or less - in one point in history, what 10 years would you go to, and why?

Why did anyone think this is a good idea?
It was an excellent idea before they decided to use it as a way to undermine the demographics of constituent countries by importing tens of millions of Arabs and Blacks.

What a fucking stupid thread.

No think about it, rocks can cause serious damage.
Mmm I think I can perfectionate it
>add stick to rock so you can now extend the lenght and add more safety and strenght in each hit
I will call it Club
But wait! there is more
>sharp rock with other rocks and add a long stick
>Now you can stab people with a lot of distance and even yet, throw it like a proyectile
I believe spear is a good name
Mmm talking about proyectiles
>sharp smaller rocks, put them with small and shorts sticks
>throw them using a flexible stick and a string
I will call this revolutionary invention: The bow

Check out Toqueville, he was a true prophet.
He also sort of predicted fascism, saying that something that he couldn't name would arise. Do not know the exact quote sorry, got it from "The anatomy of Fascism".
>According to Nietzsche, the last man is the goal that Western civilization has apparently set for itself. After having unsuccessfully attempted to get the populace to accept the Ãœbermensch as the goal of society, Zarathustra confronts them with a goal so disgusting that he assumes that it will revolt them.[1] The lives of the last men are pacifist and comfortable. There is no longer a distinction between ruler and ruled, strong over weak, or supreme over the mediocre. Social conflict and challenges are minimized. Every individual lives equally and in "superficial" harmony. There are no original or flourishing social trends and ideas. Individuality and creativity are suppressed.
Literally nothing wrong with that.
>>1864839
Nietzsche is the Denethor of political philosophy. He sees what's going on and what's wrong with it but doesn't do anything in terms of suggesting a solution.

Feel free to discuss this from a philosophical standpoint.
A rehabilitation virtual reality community for long sentence prisoners.
Every cell has a computer and oculus rift hardware.
The inmates have an anonymous avatar through which they interact with the world.
they can have any furniture, cell phone, car and clothing they want. they can interact with whoever they want.
For communication they speak and a siri like voice is what comes out on the other end.
The goal is to give architects freedom to create and express themselves. An architect or a group of architects create living spaces for each prison as part of their education. Could be assignments or whatever.
Then the prisoners create communities of their own.
The goal is to make prison inmates treat eachother better, since they wouldnt be able to differentiate between their gangs and who they interacted with in the VR.
Having a hangout buddy in the VR would be two strangers sitting down, talking or doing stuff they both find interesting.
Hurting another inmate in the prison, would potentially be hurting your buddy.
Since this is on the philosophical site of 4chan, I posted it here.
You can't rehabilitate 80 IQ sociopaths who only knew violence their whole lives and would sell their mother into prostitution if the price was right.
>>1864630
So you be sayan' that we should create Virtual world for the prisoners, where they could practice social behaviour in controlled enviromnent, when they can not do physical harm one to another?
Not a bad idea, but I think it would be a waste of resources compared to normal group therapy.
>>1864639
But you give them that which they've never had.
Economical freedom in a virtual world.
With quantum computers, you could create worlds as realistic as this:

The potential would be that they grow content and satisfaction with having luxury in their virtual world
Ever think "Damn, I wish there were a game where I could RP as a member of the Teutonic order and slaughter savages and heathens"
Well Say no more senpai.
The Chantonic Order is one of a few nations in the realm of Chanada on a Minecraft server, Devoted, after we all got fed up with the admins ruining civcraft and left for Devoted, which is run by a bredy gud admin.
The Chantonic order's capital city is Marienburg, one of our long-term projects is to build Marienburg Castle (aka Malbork Castle)
Now you ask, what about removal of savages and heathens? There are a bunch of leddit nations on the Server, just waiting for the glorioys Chantonic order (and Chanada in General) to steamroll them. Some of the best times I've had was removing leddit.
The server does have a bunch of plugins, some of which heavily effect gameplay. Ore generation is revamped completely, with no ores spawned directly on the map, and ores being randomly generated as you mine. The server has the citadel plugin, allowing you to re-enforce blocks. As well as the prisonPearl plugin, allowing you to imprison shitters and ledditors if you have a pearl in your hotbar and kill them. The server also has factorymod, which is (unlike what its name implies) a server-side plugin, which adds some neat factories. The server also has randomspawn so if you spawn far away or die it's not a huge deal because you can suicide until you feel close enough.
Our location on the server(pics I put here related):
X-4928, Z-3738
The MC Server's IP:
play.devotedmc.com
Our Mumble:
IP: chanciv.mumbleserverhost.com
Port: 20797
So get on, and get here. I'm currently on and able to help you start out. It's reccomended you [/msg Karadzic (your message here)] to let me know your with us and not a heathen to purge, or tell me your in game name over the mumble server.

You can make ONE person born before 1880 not exist. Who do you choose?
Arthur Schopenhauer.
Thanks to him, I am feeling extremely depressed. Sure, he's blunt and stays away from the French and courtly way... But damn right his works are way too depressing.
>>1864503
>Who do you choose?
Someone who is suffering so immensely I have to show him mercy.
>>1864538
>killing someone thinking you are "helping" him like your average "angel of death" cereal killa
>instead of taking out someone you know will cause suffering to millions
wow, what a selfish sociopath
