The United States has done some pretty terrible things. Every presidency seems to have something marring its legacy. What is the last great thing the United States has done? Talking about things spearheaded by either the government or a government agency, ie: the moon landing.

ITT: the most powerful single figure in history. Not just due to chance, but because of deliberate action and capabilities.
Make your case.

Genghis Khan easy.
>born into nothing
>don't even have a country
>create country
>conquer large parts of the world with country
>despite being illiterate, create civil service, general staff, and intelligence service that spread the empire even further after you die
>your empire becomes the largest continuous polity in human history
No historical figure even comes close in terms of rising from obscurity to greatness.

Wasn't it just the novel fighting methods of the mongols that gave them such a huge advantage? That seems like chance to me.

Give me the source of that, I love reading old scots.

How do leftists refute the Korea argument?
>unified culturally, linguistically, politically, etc
>undergone the exact same history until division
>after division one becomes extremely rich, stable, prosperous, etc
>the other becomes a shithole where people starve and have no rights
Is this the ultimate proof that capitalism is better than socialism?
My country is capitalist since the 70's and it's a shithole.
Can't really talk about the others, all i know is that after 40 years of capitalism in my country: >there's still people dying from hunger
>there's still homeless people
>there's still crime
>>1417885
Probably the same way "rightists" feel about the korea argument.
>ethnically and linguistically homogeneous, militaristic state founded on traditional culture, with an exceptional capacity to preserve it, no western degeneracy and consumerism
>shithole
>diverse materialist nation infested with cuckolics severed from its roots hunched over kpop and starcraft
>one of the highest standards of living in asia
You'd think both the authoritarian left and right would be BTFO by the existence of North Korea, because it definitively proves that economy trumps tradition.
>>1417885
To be fair there was a good bit of time where ROK was a shithole full of starving people
Much better now, but materialistic and greedy. Miles better than DPRK at least
Why do people call Stirner an anarchist? Stirner was not an anarchist.
>>1416596
He most definitely socialist and an anarchist. Just because people don't understand what he wrote like the author of OP's comic doesn't make him wrong.
>>1416596
Stirner is my property and you are a spook. Now fuck off or I'm about to say somethin nasty.
>>1416684

KEK SO WRONG
Can we make atheism great again?
>Famous atheists back in the day
Camus, Nietzsche, Sartre, Marx, Feuerbach
>Atheists now
Dawkins, Hitchens, Harris
>>1420677
Best thread all day.
You can start by being less of an obnoxious science fedoras and learn more about art, culture and humanities like Nietzsche did.
>>1420677
by refusing to talk about theology, stop discussing it, just let it die naturally
How old is the "cheese eating surrender monkeys" joke? I know it became really popular during the Iraq war, but were there similar jokes cracked about the war of 1870, or the hundred's year war, or the italian war, or something else?
>>1416339
It probably dates back to WWII or immediately afterwards. France did really fucking badly in that war.
>>1416339
No, France only became known as that after World War 2, where they surrendered immediately after being invaded because they were still reeling from WW1 and were in no position to fight. France was never seen as a cowardly nation before then, it was in fact greatly respected.
>>1416360
>where they surrendered immediately after being invaded
They still caused 150,000 casualties in these couple of days.
Has Islam always been a violent religion in the history of civilization?
>>1417055
It's about as violent as any other Semitic religion.

Now let's look at the loving comments Christians left for the Orlando Shooting victims...
No such thing as good or bad.
You voluntarily believe in morals because they makes you feel good when someone says you did a good job. You are just in it for the thrill, you dont care about others or the planet. And that's OK.
Just look at nature and the animals for proof. Where's the justice there? Justice in the human kingdom is, ironically, delivered through more violence.
>>1411240
What if I believe something not because of how it makes me feel, but because of the inherent orderly virtue it may possess?
What about that, you nihilistic, cock sucking, animal?
>>1411248
>inherent orderly virtue
dopamine thrill
There is definitely such thing as bad, since this board is flooded nonstop with bad threads.
Why is communist architecture so horrendous and ugly?
The interiors of some government buildings or metro stations are good, I'll give them that at least.
>>1405405
The majority of architecture during the cold war period worldwide was shit.
Along with the massive industrialization there was a dire need for workforce. The new workers were relocated farmers from the villages and they needed housing asap. These block were build in a hurry.
>>1405405
even on your own pic there are trees clearly visible
because soviet cities were built by the same centralised plan approved by usually one man (city architect) usually with his own vision (so 0 meddling from private property owners because there are none) one could achieve better results in zone planning
They made sure there were lots of trees (for both aesthetical and ecological reasons) and lawns between each and every building, wide roads, fountains and so on
How will religions react to artificial intelligence?
Most of them with butthurt.
>>1417719
Either:
>"Wow neat my toaster can feel love"
Or
>[jihad and fire bombings on love toasters intensifies]
OR
>bitching about intelligent toasters while having a toaster boyfriend on the side
How will religions react to the discovery of sentient extra-terrestrial life? What if these extra-terrestrials have their own different religion?
How will religions react to interspecies relationships?
