Totally. I feel bad for him, he was trying to adapt the ancient culture of his country to modern times and to lead Africa through the decolonization stage.

Because she's not wrong.

She wrote about how the Soviet Union had a nonsense system, and she was right.

It's just that doing the exact opposite of the Soviet Union also throws up some nonsense.

Any info on the secret history of drug use and the development of society? Shamans used psychedelics of course, and lots of business must have been done on cocaine, and of course the music industry ect.

I would like to know more about this unspoken narrative in human history.

It's not secret, it's just obscure.

Everyone used drugs up until very recently, the twentieth century is incredibly unusual in having prohibition against most drugs enforced globally.

As archaeologist focused on some other periods and tasks entirely different from Egypt, I find myself often underrating and ignoring this civilization in particular because of its peaks being set fucking far back in time and place from late Roman period I'm dealing with, but it's hard to deny that it could be the greatest and most authentic human civilization since the dawn of time. It really makes you wonder what we as sentient beings are and what are we capable of making from virtually nothing. While Roman and Greek civilizations are no doubt great achievements we can be grateful for and we live in times that follow in footsteps of those civilizations, Egypt seems something else entirely.

Yup, I know very little about ancient Egypt.

I imagine a bunch of slaves ruled by an inbred royal family using religion to justify authority. It's just not that interesting. It seems like a standard kingdom that grew in scale because they had fertile land and many resources.

Yet I find Sumer very interesting. Weird.

Anyway, that's my uninformed impression.
>>
>>1248478

What I find interesting is that almost all of the great architecture came from the Old Kingdom, Abu Simbel being one of few exceptions.

That the Step Pyramid was built nearly 1400 years before Abu Simbel is crazy to think about.

Why do criminals constantly become assets to their governments or fanatical terrorist?

Every CIA assets in history was always some drug lord. This douche bag in the photo robbed like 90 banks across Europe and was a crime boss. Noriega was an asset at one point. And every Muslim terrorist that goes to fight Isis was always in some gang before they found religion.

How do men driven by profit get turned out by governments and god?

Governments themselves are essentially criminal syndicates. They demand you give them money for protection, and they will send goon squads after you if you don't pay that money. Furthermore, if you do something they don't like (ex: smoking a plant) their goons will beat the shit out of you and hold you hostage.

Castro knew about it a few weeks in advance when the KGB picked up on it and gave him the intel.

The CIA trained invaders were expecting to make a landing with no resistance but instead were jumped.

after finding out that 25,000 Cubans were there to fight the landing force of 1,500, they just turned tail and ran.

I read somewhere that Charles V refused to remarry after the death of his beloved Isabelle. Supposedly he always wore black clothes ever since (1539) as a sign of mourning.

How plausible is this? Would there even be some other reason to have people remember it like this besides the obvious catholic ideals it embodies?

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Patrick_Moore

>The war had a significant influence on his life - he said his only romance ended when his fiancée Lorna, a nurse, was killed in London in 1943 by a bomb which struck her ambulance. Moore subsequently remarked that he never married because "there was no one else for me ... second best is no good for me ... I would have liked a wife and family, but it was not to be."[citation needed] In his autobiography he said that after sixty years he still thought about her, and because of her death "if I saw the entire German nation sinking into the sea, I could be relied upon to help push it down."[22] In May 2012 he said to the "Radio Times" magazine, "We must take care. There may be another war. The Germans will try again, given another chance. A Kraut is a Kraut is a Kraut. And the only good Kraut is a dead Kraut."[23]

It's all part of the Divine play. It attacks the illusory and falsifies all held belief which stimulates an adverse reaction. It makes them responsible for their perception of the world and responsibility isn't fun. We've created things like moral relativism to advocate abortion, which in many ways removes responsibility for prior actions
