I grew out of cuckmunism at age 16

Not history related

I hope you step on a lego cunt

Economics is the study of a broken system. Grow up and advocate for a collectivist society.

All we need is

1. Waaaaaay more moderation
2. Requirement that you need to cite a source for an answer to a question
3. Ban on speculative questioning ("hurr what if Rome never fell", none of that shit has ever produced an interesting discussion)

I feel like if there was a minimum word limit people would just spam text to get around it

If you want reddit so badly just go there. You won't be missed.

This is a good idea

sci is more or less the worst board to ask about genetics. they're literal idiots when it comes to the field

there are plenty of differences, most of them are along the lines of what you might expect from a premodern hominid. but your question is sufficiently broad that it makes me think you're 12.

>>1687942
I'm pretty ignorant on the entire evolution thing, I went to a Private Christian high school. Evolution was a no-no. So the broadness in my question, that you said indicated a level of knowledge reminiscent of a twelve year old, I do not deny as that is about the level of education I have in historical science.


If I sound pretentious it's because, as stated before, I went to a Christian high school.

I read the wiki though, in summary I read that they were early modern humans.

Honestly, I don't know how to ask my question in a specific way.

Did they have a lower IQ?

Were they dumb or were they nearly indistinguishable in brain power/size?
(I know Neanderthals had bigger brains than humans, so I don't know if that correlates with intelligence or not.)

>>1687989
ah, my apologies. I'm just used to shitposters.

if that's the case, background would probably be more useful for you, so you can choose what reading you want to do more carefully

there are some broad camps
1. leftists: they believe in evolution, but they believe that humans stopped evolving 100k years ago (when blacks and whites diverged as a race) except they believe that evolution for skin color, skull shape, organs, teeth, etc, continued, so they actually believe evolution stopped specifically at the brain, specifically 100k years ago. oh, also, everyone is completely, genetically, equal.

I think you can probably see the problem with this

2. christians.

3. "nazis" who believe that evolution never stopped, and genetics probably make up a large amount of differences even between people of the same race, today.

do you know anything about evolution at all? such as "survival of the fittest" leading to slow genetic change?

given the above, it's almost impossible not to conclude that cro-magnons were signifcantly less intelligent. they had smaller brains, and their skeletons resemble something partially between apes and humans.

this is where leftist understanding begins to break down, because they don't understand neurology, either.

to answer your q, brain size is VERY correlated with intelligence, but not perfectly. genes that control neuron function make a very strong difference as well.

Bad luck and bad scouting/intelligence gathering.

Only realized the Swiss were near when they had their collective canton dick in his ass.

naw, this is one of the better /his/ threads I've seen. fuck off. half of these threads are about heretics, where do babies come from tier idiot qutestions, etc.

first off OP, stop reading marxist stuff

secondly, yes, ethnic identity is partially maintained by power over a mode of production. but mode of production does not determine the existence or ethnicity, it only helps define what particular form ethnicity expresses itself by.

you sound like you'd be more interested in organizational psychology. the question you asked isn't really inherently tied to ethnicity or economics

Philosophy is part of humanities

I think halal and kosher dietary demands would be an example of how economic activity props up religious activity. It allows a place for the less capable religionists to be of use to their people.

England builds a bigger better army.

Anglo-Prussia army defeats Franco-Scottish army in 1760 and reunify the Kingdom.

fun alt-history. the Crown ships a couple of regiments of loyal New England troops to the Highlands of Scotland to wage a ruthless "Indian Style" war against the Highlanders.

And drink semen from hanged men.

yes.

North America used to be linked by a thriving trade network. Then a few hundred years of migrations, famines, drought, war, and disease ruined everything and turned everything north of central Mexico into a Mad Max dystopian hellworld.

Then a few hundred years after that society has built itself back up into scattered tribes with a few novel social systems, such as for example the Iroquois, who had women do all of the labor and economic work while every last man was party of the vast military that engaged in brutal warfare, slavery, and raiding to support the Iroquois society.

Then aliens invaded, destroyed the Iroquois (Or rather saved the Huron and all of the Indians living in Michigan), tried to integrate the Indians into their society, and subsequently used them as soldiers to fight other aliens.

Had the Chinese found North America first there would likely be no "North Americans", just "Chinese living in North America", but China neglected its navy at a crucial time and had no reason to go on colonial adventures anyways. Africa is laughable.

Frankly, things were going to happen the way they did no matter what. The Mesoamericans were just getting a grip on bronze when Europeans came around, meaning that they were some 500 years behind Rome. They simply wouldn't have had enough time to become a threat to Europe/the old world any time soon. Even if, say, Columbus and friends drown and no one ever finds the New World, then what? Europeans keep marching along, eventually electricity, GPS, and satellite occur, and oh look, there's an enormous fucking continent full of people who are essentially in the medieval era.

Off the top of my head: Decembrists in Russia, Greek independence, uh pretty sure there was a revolt in the Ottoman empire too. Some shit went down with the portugese monarchy also. I guess it was a decade more characterized by internal conflict for Europe.

Have you ever read any of Conquest's poetry, OP?

Into one’s ninetieth year.
Memory? Yes, but the sheer
Seethe as the half-woken brain’s
Great gray search-engine gains
Traction on all one’s dreamt, seen, felt, read,
Loathed, loved…
. . And on one’s dead.
-Which makes one’s World, one’s Age, appear
Faint wrinkles on the biosphere
Itself the merest speck in some
Corner of the continuum.

But I like the pawnstars

Now that I think about it, most "historians" I know who are bad at what they do aren't historians at all. It's obvious why they're no good, they have no training in historiography.

In terms of people with actual history degrees the only poor technical historian I can think of is Niall Ferguson. Absolutely baffles me that he graduated with a first. He does a lot of harm to his field.

People love money. They hate that other people have even more money.

>>1687237
ok. why do people pretend to hate money?

Because people with money almost always end up as some old reptilian NWO fucker

Mustaches on modern dudes never look good anyway, all the xenoestrogens in the tap water ruined our facial structure.

funny story not worth a thread

i used to deny conspiracy theory shit like that until my buddy literally went to public places and several households and got water and tested all of it and there was a shitload of fluoride in the water.

after learning about cloud seeding we tested that and it had a shit load of silver iodide

whatever you believe the reasons, that is very unhealthy

i hate /pol/tards as much as the next person but this just makes me uneasy

>>1687083
Mustaches in general are frowned upon today if you aren't 40+
