When was the last point we could expect a few wearers of the powdered queue/wig hairstyle to have persisted in using the style? Was anybody still doing it in the 1820s, 1830s, 1840s, or even later? It was dead as a fashion item in the late 1790s for most of Europe and overseas Westernized lands, and I'm not including barristers/judges that wore them as a matter of their professional duties, but I'm asking about people who actually wore these hairstyles on a regular or daily basis.

Chilean conservatives wore them until like the mid 1800s
britbong judges still wear them
>>3274277
Interesting. Who were these Chileans conservatives, exactly? Is one of them known, and to even have had a portrait of himself done while wearing the style? Are you talking circa 1850? That's very far into the 19th century for the style to have persisted; the aged wearers would probably have been into their 80s and 90s. I could imagine a few stubborn fellows sticking with the ways which they were accustomed to for so long, though.
You have 10 (ten) seconds to convince me that Corporatism is the perfect ideology.

It's not communism or capitalism

Neoliberal radical centrism is the best.

It's nice if you're at the top or think you will eventually be at the top.
Tell me about Kim Il Sung's North Korea.
How was North Korea under Kim Il Sung? I can barely find anything on it.
From what I've found poverty wasn't any worse than the Soviet Union and in some cases it had an even better stand of living than South Korea, but that's it.
It was doing "ok" while the soviet union was still around. Also no one would ever have an image of him facing that direction because of the massive calcinosis on the
>>3274124
Compared with the current North korean situation I think was fine for soviet standards.

When the propaganda wasn't a meme
>the gods live atop Mount Olympus
>it's easily climbable
Well, did any ancient Greeks ever climb up there? And what was the reaction when they saw nothing?
Apparently they lived in the gorges of the mountain
Why have I never thought about this?
>>3274052
They did climb it, that's how we know the Gods actually existed.
Does capitalism destroy culture?
>>3274008
no.
>>3274008
It does, but so does socialism/communism. Any ideology created after the French Revolution is guaranteed to be total cancer.

Will humanity ever colonize the universe?
>>3274003
the universe is pretty big dude, we'll probably never get out of our solar system, much less our galaxy
>>3274003
No, humans will be replaced by superior machines and AI before then.
Perhaps, maybe not. Science has done things which was once thought to be impossible.
This took probably a few hundred hours to create the finer details, the near-realist faces, and hundreds of different mixes of paints to painstakingly create.
I could make this in an afternoon.
>>3274004
no you couldn't
I do admire the art of the past much more though... I wish I had been born wealthy, so I could have become a painter.

Could it work?
No, and even in-universe it's literally just a way to get rid of the poor and minorities because they know those will be the most targetted.
questions that don't deserve their own thread:
I start and I'm a little embarrassed that I don't know but could historic sail boats stop? were they even able to, or did they need to just let the boats decelerate?
I'm confused about the climate of Ancient Egypt.
It wasn't a desert then but didn't have alot of trees so was it just grassland?
>>3273932
swamp maybe
>>3273957
But you can't grow crops in swamplands. Some parts probably were (the Nile Delta) but for the most part is can't be.

What did he mean by this?
I mean for real, what did he think the consequences would be when making this statement, did he do this to give a false sense of hope to future generations so that they'll believe that every other southern strategy idiot like Trump was "totally" his reincarnation?
To me it feels like he discredited himself by this quote, by looking like a dogmatic spiritual kind of guy.

TRUTH ULTIMATELY SUCCEEDS OVER FALSITY; HE MEANT THAT IN THE ZIONIST WORLD ORDER, EVENTUALLY, THE NOBLE POPULAR SPIRIT THAT HE EMBODIED WOULD MAKE A RESURGENCE, AND THAT THE IGNOBLE ONES WOULD RECOGNIZE, DESPITE, THEIR IGNOBILITY, THAT PEOPLE LIKE THEMSELVES ARE ON THE "WRONG SIDE OF HISTORY", AND THAT THE VALUES THAT THEY SO EXALT ARE "EVIL".

I DOUBT THAT YOU KNOW WHAT DOGMA, AND SPIRITUALITY, ARE.
>>3273859
It's a fake quote. I couldn't find it anywhere but on the late Stormfront.
In the Middle Ages, religious crimes such as sodomy, adultery, or blashphemy were punished by courts that were not run by the state, but by the papacy. These courts were called ecclesiastical courts. When did ecclesiastical courts lose their power in France?
>>3273774
I believe that their power began to wane in the reign of Philip IV. He brought the papacy to Avignon and the kings of France basically picked and controlled their own ope for over a hundred years.
If I remember correctly it was a slow process, starting with the pope being controlled by the king. Then the king eventually gained the right to hear and decide final appeals. By the time the papacy moved back to Rome permanently/the little schism ended, reformation sentiment was rising and in a couple of decades Martin Luther published his theses and shit really hit the fan.
The 16th and 17th centuries were very bad for the church in northern Europe, including France. The French Wars of Religion went on for years, again increasing Catholics' faith but decreasing the Church's power.
By the 18th century, just before the revolution, the Church still had almost complete legal authority over their own serfs. This is no small thing, since the Church owned about a third of all the land in France. But, concerning crimes committed by non-Church serfs, on Church property or not, the judgement wouldn't devolve onto the Church.
The death blow to the Church's power in France, really, was the revolution. It destroyed all governmental and social conventions, and this definitely included the power of the Church.
If I remember rightly.

The State as the holder of the monopoly of voilence has not existed until Absolutism.
Does anyone know what book this type of images is from? it looks like they are from the same series because the style is always the same, it's usually 3 people in one picture representing different types of warriors or different parts of a certain society.
Also post more of these and other artistic reconstructions of history itt
another example

It's Osprey publishing Man-at-Arms series. They're great.

That's it! Thank you!
What if George III fucked up Thirteen Colonies rebelion even more and French revolution happened in UK instead of France?
If Parliament had lost the civil war a century before it's possible that the revolution would've spread to the UK regardless of the 13 colonies. Might have actually stopped the American civil war, but then once you start saying "what would the UK be like if Cromwell lost 100 years later" you're just in fan-fic territory.
So no, England wouldn't've had a revolution with France because it had already decapitated the king and permitted socialist communes in the mid 17th cent. I suppose the better question is why didn't the English revolution spread to France, that is, why did France take so long to kill its catholic monarch?
>>3273781
Can you elaborate on that? I know fuckall about the 17th century.
