If I go buy some Japanese history books and also happen to pick up some One Piece won't the book salesman think I'm a weeb and only interested in Japanese history because I like Japanese media?

You must be

Germans used to brew low alcohol beer for regular drinking and hydration because it was cleaner than their shitty water.

Germans also used to sometimes use nightshade to brew their beer which created with super hallucinogenic but also technically toxic drink. I don't remember his name, some people mentioned him the other day, but there's this German anthropologist who figured out a recipe, but still needed to drink several liters of the stuff. IIRC, the dose he took wasn't very far off from the lethal dose, it's not a very optimal psychedelic. Anyways the church condemned it and the practice was for the most part eliminated, and now beer is all hops and grain and shit.

Monks would brew beer and sell it because they have to make that dosh somehow, while also keeping the surrounding peoples from storming the monastery for bread and gold. You can still find some, or at least the general recipe, and some of it is pretty good and strong.

Is that nightshade beer the reason for the purity law?

Amazing how everyone studies nazism based on reviews and re-writes but almost nobody goes to the original sources.

Listening to Hitler directly could seem crazy these days. Better buy some scholar's book on the subject

Barbarians.

They literally fucking put people in human-shaped wicker cages and burned them alive in their human sacrifices, what's not to hate about it

>Frederick invited German immigrants to the province[97] also hoping they would displace the Poles.[98]

>Frederick himself tried further propaganda justifying the Partition, portraying the acquired provinces as underdeveloped and improved by Prussian rule. According to Karin Friedrich these claims were accepted for a long time in German historiography and sometimes still reflected in modern works.[99][verification needed]. Frederick however did not justify his conquests on ethnic basis, unlike later, nationalist, 19th-century German historians.[100] Dismissive of contemporary German culture, Frederick was instead pursuing an imperialist policy, acting on the security interests of his state.[100] Frederick II settled 300,000 colonists on territories he had conquered, and enforced Germanization.[101]

>After the first partition Frederick engaged in plunder of Polish property, confiscating Polish estates and monasteries to support German colonization, and in 1786 he ordered forced buy-outs of Polish holdings.[102] The new strict tax system and bureaucracy was particularly disliked among Polish population, as was the compulsory military service in the army, which didn't exist previously in Poland.[103] Frederick abolished the gentry's freedom from taxation and restricted its power.[104] Royal estates formerly belonging to the Polish Crown were redistributed to German landowners reinforcing Germanization.[105] Both Protestant and Roman Catholic teachers (mostly Jesuits) taught in West Prussia, and teachers and administrators were encouraged to be able to speak both German and Polish.[97][verification needed] Economic exploitation of Poland, especially by Prussia and Austria, followed the territorial seizures.

>Frederick wrote that Poland had "the worst government in Europe with the exception of Turkey".[96] After a prolonged visit to West Prussia in 1773, Frederick informed Voltaire of his findings and accomplishments: "I have abolished serfdom, reformed the savage laws, opened a canal which joins up all the main rivers; I have rebuilt those villages razed to the ground after the plague in 1709 (32,599 people in and around Danzig perished);[108][better source needed] I have drained the marshes and established a police force where none existed. . . it is not reasonable that the country which produced Copernicus should be allowed to moulder in the barbarism that results from tyranny. Those hitherto in power have destroyed the schools, thinking that the uneducated people are easily oppressed. These provinces cannot be compared with any European country--the only parallel would be Canada."[109] But in a letter to Henry, Frederick admitted that the Polish provinces were in good state:

As one myself living in the West, I'm very knowledgeable about the early Turks.

The two main types of Turks originate from Mongolia or from Russia. The difference is skin tone and eye colour.

They started living in the East of Turkey as a small group, then they grew enough to be the size of a small city. Then they rose up up to have conquered main parts of the East. They went by the name of the Seljuks.

After this was the Ottoman Empire, which also started fairly small. This also rose up to be a superpower. The Ottomans were war-hungry and their mission was to expand their land. However the Ottomans lost a lot of land because of its inhabitants, not many were Turks and wanted their state back.

The reason the Ottomans wanted land is because of the first Sultan's dream, he dreamt of an empire with his name everywhere on Europe and Asia.

The reason to their military success was that all citizens had to have some military training, this law is somewhat still here in Turkey. They were also the first to have War Rythms during a war, and they had a different style. They were skilled with the horses like the Mongolians and we're keen sharpshooters. Nor did they use a regular sword, but a special one that curves at the end. Their health care was superior at the time, so they had no problem while the West was bathing in Urine to get the disease away.

In my opinion Turkey sucked when Atatürk came to power, he oppressed the religious, banned the Quran, basically what Trump would do if he were Turkey's representative. And right now Erdoğan is trying to claim overwhelming power which he shouldn't have, it's still a democracy.
I think you know how big the Ottoman empire was, so this is the Seljuk empire

Mao's hygiene regimen:
>1. Rarely bathed. Even if he did, he disliked soap and water method. Preffered to be scrubbed with steaming towels.

>2. Did not brush teeth. He preffered to rinse mouth with teas. Apparently, his teeth were pretty rotten.

>3. Did not like flush toilets. For years after he became the most powerful man in China, he defecated in the palace gardens. Finally Zhou Enlai was able to convince him to use an indoor bathroom.

>4. He often had an assortment of body lice and skin infections. He often just dropped his pants in public to scratch himself.

read an economics book

It is to economics what a perpetual motion device is to engineering.

It is to economics like alchemy and magic is to chemistry

Because they are stupid collectivists, and collectivists cannot into economics

There is nothing new to it; it's the same old product of the eternal materialist mentality of hylic people.

>>1481226
I mean, I don't really buy into the Gnostic crap that comes from either. Like I said, I also think God doesn't exist (probably).

My point is just that there are actual people studying in various fields and adding to them, and then there are these people patting themselves on the back with one hand and circlejerking each other with the other because they don't believe in God and some other people do.

What's the point? How is that satisfying? It's fine to be an atheist, but if, as New Atheists are so eager to point out, it's not a positive belief, then what sense does it make to define your entire existence by the fact that you take what you consider to be a default position?

>>1481265
I reiterate, it's the same decrepit, soulless, garbage. Your wasting of time trying to rationalize its convolutions, along with your selfalleged disbelief in God, just prove how mentally impaired and pettyminded Atheists are.

Go away.

for what purpose?

Why use a train? Just go the classic route and fly circles around the earth in a spaceship.

There's a Queen song about this: '39.

And no I would not.
