Flag thread?
Post best historical flags, both used and hypothetical.
>>1693682
>Blueshirts
shit t.bh, The Ailtirí na hAiséirghe were clearly superior
Was this the most embarrassed military defeat in history ?
>>1691658
France in WWII
>>1691658
Nah, the embarrassing part is that the Oirats captured the Emperor, and then after a few years of negotiation with the Ming, just gave him back without grabbing a ransom.

Here come the emu posters thinking they're being clever and original

How do you beat a knight in full plate armour?
With a nuke.
stab him in the eye holes
Push them over
>Want to feel bad for Germans in each war
>Then get reminded of some other horrible thing they did
Basically how the fuck can people defend unrestricted submarine warfare? It's just such a dickish thing to do in every way. Did Germans just not understand sportsmanship?
>Did Germans just not understand <social cues>
Yes.
This is incidentally why they created Marxism, and invaded Belgium during WW1 and Poland during WW2.
They are politically autistic.
>sportmanship
>in war

Meh. Every country does morally questionable things. Also the Lusitania was carrying weapons so you have the American government to thank for all those dead civilians.
Anyone here read "Nihilism," by Father Seraphim Rose?
He's right. When you take God away, the sole principle for the quality of anything becomes how "new" it is, be it politics (CURRENT YEAR), art (avant-garde), philosophy (post-post-post), everything. No other quality is considered meaningful.

Women are hedonists and their enemy is boredom, effort, risk, danger.
Fortunately, men are desperate enough to feel relevant, dutiful, respected, valued so they are pushy enough to try to be noticed by women (because they fail to be relevant beyond women). and sooner or later, they cracks the bf-shield
Women know that chads and other robots are willing to help them, to have an easy life. The natural problem of women is that they get bored sooner or later with whoever choose to try to entertain them.
So women change their partners to avoid the rut and to create drama. men do not like to be changed, since they loved to be relevant for once in their life, they whine and hate women when women find other providers.
Of course, changing partners constantly becomes a bore too, so they want some fixed men in their life to give them emotional and material support, Rarely sex because women know that, no matter how good the lover is, it gets boring sooner or later.
When they are replaced, men become resentful towards women, since they lose the validation of their existence. They pretend that they can live without women and that they even are better than women, smarter, stronger (in forgetting that women do not need to be so, because men want to be so in place of women)
Knowing that they are not able to stop loving to be supported by men, Women love also to think that they need no man and that they live to help others >muh compassion. This is part of the tactic to enhance their pleasures: women think that they are good people in society, only to feel even more raw, more animal, more of a little minx, typically in private, when they are fucked properly by some beta ready to serve them sexually.
She looks so much better in the left pic. Makes me sad.

Are Christians obligated to be pro-immigrant? What is the consensus of Christians here?
The Orthodox Church released this statement this year
>Such an important aspect of modern life like mass migration is not left unattended. Unlike the Catholic approach that unduly favors migrants, particularly in Europe, the Orthodox notices the negative nature of the process, as well as the fact that it leads to confrontation of different identities and value systems. In addition, the Orthodox Church propose to look at the roots of this phenomenon. The reason for the migration is the liberal, hedonistic ideology bleeding the peoples of Europe and the interests of the capitalist elite, who need a cheap and disenfranchised workforce:
>Attempts by indigenous people of the rich countries to stop the migration flow are futile, because they come in conflict with the greed of their own elites who are interested in the low-wage workforce
>>1712999
gee, are people obligated to let themselves be murdered and their children raped?
really makes your noggin tick!
>>1712999
>The Orthodox Church
The American one?
Catholics tend to be more pro immigrant while Protestants are usually more nationalistic.
If God is omnipotent and omnipresent, why does he allow suffering? Some claim that the suffering in this world is due to a Divine plan, but why would an omnipotent being ever need to conform to a "plan" or any other form of causality?
Like if we assume:
>Sally's puppy got run over so that she could learn an important lesson
Why couldn't god have simply made it so that Sally learned the lesson AND kept the puppy? Why does god not simply create perfection? Why would he deliberately choose to torture humanity for no reason?
Struggling myself friend. I fully believe God exists and I call him Father but dont believe in jesus or the devil. But man life is weird. Im very unhealthy with autoimmune conditions and the only thing keeping me sane is calling on God my Father
You act as if God needs to explain his actions.
>>1712662
Just because god made you does not mean he has to take care of you every moment. That would be a violation of the NAP.
Let's have an Art History thread
(No shit after 1960)
btw Baroque is the pinnacle of western art.
Choose you're favorites and the most beautiful
>>1712226
>btw Baroque is the pinnacle of western art.
and this is proof
Medieval is the pinnacle of Western art.
Counting all the up and downs, what was this guy's impact?
dickhead made people think communism is good by using him as an example of an awful capitalist. His reign of terror essentially turned Allende into a martyr
He saved Chile.
If you want to know where Allende policies led, just look at present day Venezuela.
Pinocho and Allende were both vendepatrias.
Thoughts?
pretty accurate but I'm sure some autist will rage over 1 or 2 of them

>carthage
Gotta love this meme well maybe Roman carthage was
>>1712123
Carthage was always larger than Rome until it's destruction
>no philosophers
>architecture is a fucking straw hut
>too retarded do write down their own history
>got rekt in pitched battles
>only good at killing pedomonks and unarmed 40yo farmers
wow
I'm so fucking impressed by glorious nordic nations they really showed Greeks, Carthagians and Romans what Europe is made of.
>>1712205
Greeks and Romans were European.
>tfw viking hate threads are back
I missed you op
>>1712210
Exactly. Then the fuck are vikings used as poster boys of Europe if Greeks and Romans outdid them in every way?
If the fourth crusade didn't fuck their shit up, do you think the ERE/Byzantine Empire would have lasted until modern age, like the ottomans did?
>>1711960
No.
>>1711960
Manzikert started the terminal decline desu
>>1712153
^this
It's generally recognized that Manzikert marks the start of the decline. The Fourth Crusade was just salt in the wound at that point.
Some kind of catasthrophe happens and you have to transmit your knowledge of history in a condensed oral tale. Let's limit it in 200 words. Show us how you would do it.
With jews you win.
People walk around being nomads. People start building cities. People form kingdoms. Nobody like's the Jews. Kingdoms fight. Here come's Rome. Rome conquers all kinds of shit. Here come's Christianity. Here come's Islam. People enter medieval ages. Europe developed. Here comes guns. Modern period. Damn, here come's 2 world wars. Damn, here comes decades long instability in the middle east caused by British attempt to destabilize Ottoman empire and westerners interfiering in someone's else's business. Europe flooded with refugees. Still no one likes the Jews
Rome
