Abos did

>Living happily as stone age hunter gatherers; colonists reported they were lean, healthy and seemed content.
>Genocide; there are literally no tasmanian abos left alive. In the diaries of convicts sent to tasmania, they literally played with the lives of the natives there, shooting at them for practice, enslaving them, and acting mroe barbaric than them. You can find about this shit online easily.
>THe modern day aboriginal communities are plagued by alcoholism, unemployment, crime, depression, etc. They have no prospects, no future, no skills. Nothing. LIterally nothing.

Has anyone just tried to forcibly get them to go back to living as hunter gatherers? It would be better for everyone and they'd be much happier. Australians are scornful of them and hate them, but seeing how they live first hand... it's just pitiful.

sorry for that ramble guys

Some fuckers wanted to bring the monarchy back, others wanted to turn France into a land of communism (which led to some ridiculous laws banning 'vous' and such). So he killed everyone.

The revolutionaries of 1789 proclaimed the rights of man and presided over one of the greatest redistributions of land in European history and the first French Republic abolished slavery in the French colonie. There is much that remains genuinely inspiring in the history of the French revolution.

Citizens by Simon Schama

Mike Duncan's Revolutions Podcast

Pretty much the mobs in Paris got to dictate policy, which led to an ever leftward drift. Then the government put in retarded policies.

Revolutionaries in Marseilles turned on Pariscentric politicians. Farmers rioted over price ceilings put into place for the benefit of starving city dwellers. Catholics went full civil war mode over priests' civic oaths in the Vendee.

Also, towards the beginning, various parties, including the King, thought it was in their interest to start a war with Austria. So while the French Revolution is going on, they are also invading Austria, Belgium, Italy, and for some reason Egypt and Syria.

They also try invading Ireland and England.

It's a shit show.

This is true. Read his "Iron Kingdom" a while back, and got through the first little bit of "The Sleepwalkers" at the library. It's on my list. As for me:

Felipe Fernández-Armesto, "Near a Thousand Tables: A History of Food" (2002)

The Pillow Book by Sei Shonagon

It's quite interesting, gives some insight into the courtly life and how one person perceives it.

The sudden skipping is a bit frustrating though, but that is to be expected.

>A World Lit Only By Fire

Ignore everything you just read.Its mostly horseshit.

The Ties that Bound is a good read. Time Travellers Guide to Medieval England is comfy too.

Good luck finding some.

You could try the Thomas Jefferson New Testament.

There's Kierkegaard.

You could also try Zizek. He wrote a book called The Puppet and the Dwarf: The Perverse Core of Christianity. I haven't read it myself. Perhaps even God in Pain: Inversions of Apocalypse and Paul's New Moment: Continental Philosophy and the Future of Christian Theology. Those last two books were co-authored.

Everyone always mocks the truthers though. That's nickleback tier. If you even say nickleback the room laughs. So you can't even use 9/11.

>It seems kind of weird that someone who's half-black half-white will look closer to black than white

Will they? Compare Obama with a white person and an actual African black with no white ancestry. I don't think Obama's skin color is any closer necessarily to the former than it is to the latter.

What exactly are you asking?
