How do you deal with the insignificance of your life?

>inb4 baby's first exist' crisi

The amount of people around the world, the advanced understanding of how people act and think has definitely changed things. There was a time when you were only aware of the lives of the few members of your tribe and not to how alike people are. This realization was not available yet. A person could feel significant, magical, mysterious.
How do we still perceive our lives as significant with contemporary knowledge of history, psychology(etc...)?

Because it's all you're ever going to experience, therefore to maximize your enjoyment of it you ought to realize that it doesn't matter whether you appear significant to other people so long as you enjoy yourself.
>>
>>1156994
You're still significant to the people around you. The prime minister of any country in the world means less to me than any of my friends or family

Yeah, but as you grow older you realize that no matter what you achieve, human life is always flawed, always unequal, always a struggle against others, always full of misunderstandings.
Yes you can ignore it and strive for something and enjoy the people around you but all that is also a struggle that ultimately ends with pain and death and disappointment.
The question is how to restructure the understanding of what it is to be human and what it means to be in general while not ignoring ones insignificence, or so this insignificence goes away completely.

What's the saddest militia that actually saw battle?

>Units were mostly composed of members of the Hitler Youth, invalids, the elderly, or men who had previously been considered unfit for military service. Further desperation showed when on 12 February 1945, the Nazis conscripted German women and girls into the auxiliaries of the Volkssturm. Correspondingly, girls as young as 14 years began receiving instructions on the use of small-arms, bazookas, machine guns, and hand grenades from December 1944 through May 1945.

>In the last few months of the war, the shortages of modern firearms led to the use of weapons such as shotguns, and even muskets and crossbows taken from museums.

Well Chinese WWII guerillas went at Japanese with Spears and swords.

Though to be fair: they had fanatical motivation for it. And it had tactics.
>Say you have 20 men. And 9 or so guns. Like any gun.
>The rest will be armed with spears, swords, and grenades.
>Hunt isolated Jap patrol.
>9 men with guns will try and suppress or gain the fire attention of Jap patrol.
>The rest flank/sneak and try to rush nips with grenades, swords, and spear.
>If successful and Jap patrol is dead, the Chink guerillas would then collect the weapons and ammo of the slain Japanese for their own usage.

Is the theory that Austria was a victim in WW2 justified, because from my knowledge Austrians wanted to join Germany much more than even Hitler could have expected so why is this still pushed in modern analysis of history?

>>1156890
Of course not. As you said Austrians fully supported nazism because of their butthurt caused by not being a great power anymore and saw joining Germany as a way to be relevant again.
>>
>>1156890

that sounds like bullshit, austria got out great after the war considering it was part of germany, the fact it was anexed made it possible to threat it like it was neutral, they were never occupied by soviets, no major battles were fought in austria, they came out unscathed

because it suits everyone to say so.

the point about a scapegoat is that it absolves the rest of the guilty of shame.

>"Between 1968 and 1975, a variety of pegs to gold were put in place, eventually culminating in a sudden end, on August 15, 1971, to the convertibility of dollars to gold later dubbed the Nixon Shock.[...]"

I don't know that much about economics. I know by the time the Nixon Shock was implemented, it was considered a success, but can it still be considered this way today ?

Pegging to gold is a very bad idea. Gold has low supply and you're banking on the prices rising to accomidate modern usage. Banks and businesses spend more dollars than there is gold in the world.

Also it makes it harder to control for business cycles and implement good monetarist policy.

>>1156897
So the Bretton Woods system was definetly a thing of the past and was doomed anyway ?

But isn't the end of Bretton Woods' the reasons of modern day economic crisis ?

I mean any money were worth this much dollar and this much money were worth this much gold. At the end of the chain, there was always something real, something concrete. Now it seems to me that it's the other way around and money's value is only related to what you can buy with it.

Like I said, I don't know much about economics, so even if it sounds absurd I'm not a troll, just an ignorant.

Hey /his/ I'm so confused here. It was of my understanding that Jews, Muslims and Christians all worshipped the same God, but apparentally not. I'm confused because of the complexity of this god. All three religions agree that God exposed himself to Abraham, thus making all three religions worshipping the same God in different forms.

But then further back then Abraham there were his descendants, there was the ancient civilisations of Sumeria, Babylon, Israel, Aramaia, etc. And these civilisations apparently tie in with all three of these religions. Then I see Muslims and Jews use animal sacrifice to honour their God (pretty sure Jews used to but don't anymore) but Christians do not. Why is this?

Then further down the rabbit hole there's spooky sects of Judaism like kabbalism and there are other satanic and evil gods in the Jewish faith that originate much before Jesus.

Wasn't it supposed to be a monotheistic religion? Ancient Hebrew religion stated there were multiple gods and Yahweh was only one. Another one was "eloi" (the arabic translation of eloi is allah)

Then there's all sorts of prophets and kings like David, Elijah, Moses, etc. Did these men all worship the same God too?

Then after Christ there is Muhammad and apparently a lot of Islam is influenced from pagan religions in the Middle East prior to the introduction of Muhammad.

How exactly do all of these complex factors tie into one another, does anyone have this knowledge? I'm sorry for writing at the level of a child but it's hard to put my confusion about abrahamic religions and how they originated into words.

Someone help me comprehend all of this.

If a God is unchanging, then if people's descriptions of God are different, then it very well could be a different God.

I understand De Jure that all Abrahamic religions worship the same God, but the inherent differences to the actual makeup of whether there's a trinity or his "personality" and goals make me think that yes, these are separate Gods.

The Great Demonic Deception.jpg

>>1156806
Muhammad was actually visited by a false angel of light, it was a demon, a fallen angel of deception. Satan and his workers are great mimickers and Muhammad, deceived, established a demonic cult of Allah (false-God) called Islam (meaning voluntary submission to this false-God, i.e. Satan) which he spread like wildfire by the sword convinced that it was the last revelation of God Almighty.

Islam is none other than Satan's magnum opus, which now has 1.6 billion adherents (23% of the world population) and which will probably be followed by half of the world population by 2050.

>For such are false apostles, deceitful workers, transforming themselves into the apostles of Christ. And no marvel; for Satan himself is transformed into an angel of light. Therefore it is no great thing if his ministers also be transformed as the ministers of righteousness; whose end shall be according to their works.

Muhammad was a gluttonous wealthy slave owner, an adulterer, a child-molesting pedophile, a murderer, a liar, he encouraged theft, rape, torture and the list goes on. He was the pawn of Satan and is now in Hell.

>Beware of false prophets, who come to you in sheep's clothing but inwardly are ravenous wolves. You will recognize them by their fruits. Are grapes gathered from thornbushes, or figs from thistles? So, every healthy tree bears good fruit, but the diseased tree bears bad fruit. A healthy tree cannot bear bad fruit, nor can a diseased tree bear good fruit. Every tree that does not bear good fruit is cut down and thrown into the fire. Thus you will recognize them by their fruits.
Matthew 7:15-20

Jesus is the Christ prophesied in scripture, born of God, undeceivable.

>>
>>1156590
Yes, the disorder caused by the rebellion was used by Crassus and Pompeii in their initial bids for power, allowing them both to bring their legions into Italy and use them to acquire consulships (Pompeii was too young to be a consul legally, but when you have 4 legions outside of Rome you can get that ignored). Beyond that, it was one of the causes of the Caesarian slave and land reforms. These fundamentally changed the structure of Roman life and the Roman economy
