"They tell us that all Kings are bad; that God never made a King; and that all Kings are very expensive. But, that all Kings are bad cannot be true: because God himself is one of them; he calls himself King of Kings; which not only shows us he is a King, but he has other Kings under him: he is never called King of Republics. The Scripture calls Kings, the Lord’s Anointed; but who ever heard of an anointed Republic?"
kings aren't selected on merit

You forgot unachievable.
Well it has still been tried you moron.
Trying something doesn't mean that you get where you want, but you still tried.
And they failed, with horrible results.
How do you explain to college marxists how retarded they are? They dont fucking listen.
I mean like, srsly? Power to the people? People are fucking retarded AND evil.
How can anyone who knows a little about history, i mean HS level, not realize it doesnt work?

I'd take 20 Stalins over 1 college marxist desu.

As far as i know, the guy robbed banks to get money for the cause, at least he moved his fucking ass, the only thing college marxists do is smoke weed and cry about their shitty lifes.
>>1320635
tfw I live in post-soviet baltic state and everyone I know fucking hates marxism. So yeah, at least we dont suffer from radical college left... yet.
What happened?
While India and Pakistan hate and hated each other, and important violence followed the partition, it seems like in general the boundaries between both states (and later Bangladesh) were pretty much clear. Except in this area.
Why Kashmir? And what's China doing there? What was going on Kashmir before the partition, during British rule and previous eras? Can it explain this conflict?
I know there's at least a couple of Indians here and that this is a sensitive affair. Please keep it civil, I know the conflict continues today but we're here to debate history. I would tell the same to the pakistanis but I think there's not a single one here.

Before 1947 Jammu and Kashmir were part of a princely state, which in turn was a British vassal. The rulers of the princely state of Kashmir were Hindus, whereas the plebs were Muslims. When the princely states were forced to choose on either joining Pakistan or India after independence, the ruler of Kashmir decided to cede his state to India, contrary to the wishes of the Muslim population. This eventually lead to a conflict between India and Pakistan, which culminated in the 1947 and 1965 wars. China who were interested in weakening India, sided with Pakistan and managed to take the eastern portion of Kashmir (Aksai Chin) during the 1962 war.
>>1316882
How do the Chinese justify those and other territorial claims they have on India?
Also, why did the British allowed the prince to decide when they knew how much problems would cause? What about a third way with an independent Kashmir? It was an option for the princely states iirc.

With the exception of the Spratlys and all those Island Squabbles, the Chinese justify all continental Asian territorial disputes based on the last dynasty's- the Qingz- Borders

The plague empowered the peasants that survived and made way for a strong middleclass in some parts of europe.
At least something.

Actually Italy and the HRE went downward after the Black Death while Western Europe surged ahead and experienced real wages people wouldn't have again until the Industrial revolution.
Compare say Italy and the Dutch
/pol/kiddies always get mad when they get told that Communism has never been tried because they have no counter argument to it. But they still refuse to accept it.
So in what way have any of the "Communist" states of the past 100 years been Communist?
It was tried, a lot of times, poorly.
t. socialist.

Cambodia under the Khmer Rouge.
If the USSR wasn't actually communist why is it so jerked off over by all you edgy commie kids?
Seems like the same exact deal with neonazis who wank off to the holocaust then claim it never happened. Can't have it both ways.

Why do barbarian conquerors always turn into sissies after subduing more civilized people?

They become infatuated with luxuries and decadence, then quickly abandon the harsh lifestyle they lived that resulted in them being barbarian conquerors in the first place

Why would intelligent organisms exist in a godless universe? Why doesn't the universe just "exist" without humans. It's not like the universe has feelings, it has no real need for people.
>>1322796
>It's not like the universe has feelings,
What are you? Created from the matter inside the universe complete with feelings.
You are literally made from the same things which the universe is made up of. You are the universe.
Intelligence is a mistake and can be detrimental to a species and it's overall survival. Intelligence is a mistake, stop thinking you are so great because you are 'smart'. We are broken.
>>1322796
Why focus on humans? Why doesn't your query involve any other animal?

They exist because they're a consequence of how all the physical forces and matter and whatnot in the universe ended up interacting together, they just naturally arose like anything else.
Why would the universe not having emotional needs have anything to do with it?

He didn't do that. He didn't even know about the protestors until several hours after the soldiers shot and killed them because he was hundreds of miles away.

How come Native American names get translated when most names from various non-European cultures either get transliterated or rendered phonetically?
>>1322401
I am sure that would depend entirely upon the fact that Americans show no remorse for their actions.

They're too hard for English speakers to pronounce. For an extreme example, [xɬpʼχʷɬtʰɬpʰɬɬs] is a valid word in Nuxalk, spoken in British Columbia.
How come so after ~1400 Europe managed to overwhelmingly outclass all the rest of the world in every relevant category? It's seems like all these "great" civilizations like Islam, India, China just stuck in Middle Ages for 500 years, and if there were any developements or improvements they all just came from Europe/the US. I know things are changing now but I'm talking about period until about the end of WWII. Compare quality of Western art to Chinese or something. Hell, even still in the Middle Ages, Gothic architecture was simply light years ahead of everything else - it extended use of stone to it's physical boundaries. Meanwhile in the rest of the world: wooden pagodas, and if anything made out of stone its claustrophobic (and if not its just some most basic shapes like pyramids)
Pic related is considered art in Japan

The sense conveyed is often more important than the thing itself. One is an attempt at dominating nature while the other blends with it and expressed its qualities more subtly.
