I could see ways to justify both sides of the argument as to whether one should use the prior or the ladder.
Which dating system do you think should be used?
Is secularization inevitably removing large aspects of our culture?
>>1677087
I'm an atheist but use BC/AD. Redoing it just to make fedoras happy is retarded
>>1677087
They're the exact same dating system and the only difference is the terminology. Indon't care which one you use, since what matters is the year and that remains the same.
>>1677087
literally no reason to use BCE/CE besides "muh feelings". There is actually a reason to use BC/AD because they describe themselves.
What makes violence so entertaining?
We are animals.
>>1677057
It's all the excitement of seeing competition, coupled with the survival instinct put on display which makes the fighters perform to their utmost ability.
There's nothing quite like seeing a good fight between two fighters giving it their all.

>"""Liberté, égalité, fraternité"""
>doesn't give freedom to all the lands conquered by the kings
>takes the centralization policy even further and suppresses any non-French culture
Explain this, /his/.
What Anglos don't get is that in France civil rights and liberties apply to the nation's subjects, which aren't races, religions, social classes, sexual orientations, haplogroups, gender identities, weight classes, or any other tribes or communities like they are in Anglo countries, but individual people, equal and free.

why did you put revolution in quotation marks? are you saying that it wasn't a revolution?
>>1677327
It was revolting, we can agree on that much.
What do the runes here say?

>when you pretend to hate modernity and the enlightenment to fit in with the cool Orthodox kids

It's dumb, you should hate modernity and the enlightenment regardless of the orthodox' opinion on the matter
I hate enlightenment, modernity is okay
>when you feel yourself unironically becoming le wrong generation
When and why did the man cease to be regarded as the head of the family in western society?
when people became too poor and now women need to work too to sustain a family, and welfare
When women started working jobs that allowed them to divorce their husbands.
Something tells me you're nursing a few theories yourself OP. Why don't you tell me?
Why was the eastern front so much more mobile than the western front in WWI?
Because the eastern steppe is too god damn big.
>>1676790
Unit density is lower. The Western front crammed millions of men into a relatively tiny area, which mean that there was no room to put them all in effectively, no room to try to maneuver around your opponent's flanks on an operational or strategic level.
Eastern Front, not so much.
Too many Russians to kill.

Hey guys, I was wondering:
What sorts of organic materials was armour made from? They obviously don't preserve the same way metallic armours do, which to me makes it a very interesting subject.
Let's take, the linothorax. Do we know how exactly it was made? Padded cloth? Glued cloth? Lindybeige's stupid leather hypothesis?
So yeah, let's just post interesting forms of organic armour from across history and talk about their properties. Shit's interesting.
>>1676473
Leather.
Rattan
Wood.
Cloth
/thread,
>>1676473
What's wrong with a leather 'linothorax' it would be far cheaper than linen (in materials and labour-hours) and have a similar protective ability.
>>1676473
It was made out of armour

It should actually be Votes for Everyone.
No one should vote
Just favoritism and special treatment at this point.
A bunch of male nerds spend most of their free time coding as teenagers then get high paying jobs and start businesses. This triggers the Stacies who made fun of them in high school so they cry sexism even though the root of the problem is attitudes among women. Normies have zero sentiment for adult males who are not alpha so they trip over each other to "defend" the damsels in "distress" and give them all the affirmative action, paid maternity leave and benefits they want.
>using contraceptives is a sin, because you shouldn't waste semen like Onan did
>but practicing abstinence is fine
Do they even know how sperm works? Spermatozoa dies and are reproduced in the male body all the time, one sperm lives for about a week, so you are also "wating" sperm if you are abstaining.
>implying exegetical scholars use this as a prime example for abstinence
>>1676168
What's even stupider is that they DO support the "coitus interruptus" method of contraception where the man pulls out before cuming.
What is the historical context of modern Flat Earth Theory.
Is it just a thought experiment that went too far?

Historically, how were members of the military viewed. Did they glorify them as heroes? Did ancient societies view soldiers as freedom fighters or the pawns that they were?
They're cool people as long as they don't pillage my village
>>1676099
Not freedom fighters, no one gave a shit about freedom.
>>1676099
Freedom fighter is a completely modern concept
Prior to ol 'Dolf, who did most average people consider to have been the "worst person, like, ever."
