>someone is saying that nationalism is pointless and loving your country is a bad thing
>they are invariably a limp-wristed, butthurt Europoor
I understand. Believe me I get it. If my country were a tiny, quasi-socialist resort for Syrian immigrants I'd hate it too.

America is, according to the definition of nation, not a nation. You're a "melting pot". If you honestly believe your 63% constitutes a nation you're retarded.
What does /his/ think of televangelists?
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=a54iqEr1flQ
They are heretics. Most aren't even remotely Christian in their beliefs. Benny Hinn is one of the worst.
BTW whoever did this video is a genius.

Patton.
Which is more a "waste of life," basic wage labor or being a NEET? Is one or the other more likely to be degrading or shameful?
there is no "waste of life". In either direction your going, It is not about wage or living on the lowest expense. The only thing which is shameful, is to let yourself behind and stop your own personal growth.

I'm ashamed of myself for this but I have a huge boner for war. I don't need anything to fight for in fact I have no ambitions in my life other than to find glory and death on the battlefield. Is this a bad thing?

How accurate is the Dunning-Kruger effect?
>>1844257
(asking here since psychology fits best under /his/)
>>1844257
Pretty accurate.
>>1844257
It has been confirmed to exist by numerous studies, besides the anecdotal evidence that exists all around us (especially on 4chan), so pretty accurate I'd say
Let's have a little fun, /his/.

Daniel?
My surname is an ye olde english/french word for "villainous, lewd and vulgar." Starts with an R. Frequently used word in the 19th century.
Makes me wonder what my ancestors did to deserve such a name.
>>1844253
Disregard that.
Tim, from timotheus?

Robert stems from Germanic, meaning Glory Bright in some Saxon proto-deutsche language
The "Jews are rich" meme goes back to the middle ages.
But were rural Jews actually wealthy in the 19th and 20th centuries?
>>1844179
No. The absolute monarchies of Europe atamped it out, but when Napoleon released Jews upon the continent he awakened the most nefarious force Europe has ever or will ever know.
>>1844179
"Jews are rich/ greedy" goes back to religious views on moneylending.
Christians back in the day believed that demanding interest on loans was usury, a sin. So Christian realms disallowed it for Christians. In turn, Christians rarely engaged in money lending, because it was a risky practice where at best you broke even.
However, this did not hold true for the Jews, who were often exempt from the no-usury rules. So Jews engaged in the practice, usually to their profit.
Naturally, this engendered hatred and envy in a people that were already a lightning rod for such. People ended up in debt to the Jews or simply despised how they seemed to have plenty of wealth while they, good Christians, were broke.
Rural Jews were not special from other faiths/ ethnicities: their wealth was tied to their position.

>However, this did not hold true for the Jews, who were often exempt from the no-usury rules. So Jews engaged in the practice, usually to their profit.
Usury is actually forbidden is the Talmud, but it's only forbidden for Jew on Jew usury, so they made quite a pretty penny from the goyim.

How would the world look like if the Ottomans were Christian?
>1844144
Turkey and Syria would still produce good wine...
>>1844144
They probably would have done the exact same thing. The Ottomans didn't exactly spare their Muslim brothers.
They'd probably be Hellenized over time and just be even more Oriental Byzantines; like the Mongols (?) in Persia

Bar Russia falling apart of course.
Dismantle the oppressive totalitarians, down with Russia, Austria, Germany and the Turks.
France is based.
Ah yes, the "French plans for Europe" which are in fact merely a propaganda wankfest from a lunatic far-right fringe group whose supporters got like 3% in the election. GG OP.

Why was El Greco's style so shit?
How did he get away with this in the 1500s??
>>1844114
Are you such a pleb? Holy fuck, I bet you complain about expressionist works too
>>1844125
I like expressionist works
I just think Greco's style was awful. The colours are often incredibly dull and sickening, almost cheap looking pigments.
He clearly lacked skill. Yes, he can be appreciated as a VERY early "modernist". But for his time (The high renaissance) he was severely lacking in talent and ability.
>>1844114
he was painting 1920s shit thousands of years too early
