He probably was real.

He most likely existed. There were shitloads of Indo-Iranian Buddhist missionaries streaming into China from places like Khotan or the Kushan Empire.

What is myth is that he invented Shaolin Kung-Fu.

Yes, though it can be slow as fuck sometimes.

Favourite scene is when the congress votes to declare independence

This is probably my favorite historical show.

The Venetians were essentially the richest nation around a bunch of poorer nations. I presume they just feel superior to the other nations/countries.

They pursued their own interests as all successful cities-states should

Didn't they eventually get BTFO'd? How did they get away with their Crusades antics?

Any more dumb questions?

Who's the guy on the right? Are you including the Ottomans or something?

Learning is hard? Give up.

Saw this on /lit/ earlier fagtron

the idea that you can fully graps something knowledge of hat produced that work, is bogus. You wouldn't have the need to read it then yu could make it up yourself if this sort of "transparent" understanding was possible.

In fact the value of a work resides exactly in what is stranger to you and the effect it produces by clashing with your cultural horizon, also not everyone needs to be a critic.

Northern Europeans can be racist even to other whites.

hmmm

interesting

Been there once on a pilgrimage some years ago. I had my doubts and I still do, but... ...I don't know. There is this rocky hillside where Mary supposedly appeared. The place had a certain... ...aura, if you will. Like if it was graced by the presence of something holy. Or maybe it was just my mind playing tricks with me. Who knows.

Whats the tech level? Also remove Hannibal. He was the king of a form of war based on rational states. Thats why he lost. The idea a state would tolerate a fucking maundering army in its land was unheard of at that time, Hannibal did not know he was fucking with gangstas.

Napoleon. He's the only one of the three who was actually masterful at training peasant armies, which the others never did.

Entertaining. A good way of getting basic information about a variety of topics. NEVER assume he's correct about ANYTHING.

I enjoy him but he has become somewhat of a meme around here.

He's sometimes raucously inaccurate, but for the most part his information is sound and comes in bite size chunks with good, logical arguments behind it.

8/10.

Because people always feel the need to counter things they disagree with in equal extremity. So when, like you say, there's a constant emotionally driven narrative around the Holocaust, other just as delusional people who get tired of it are going to shout the total opposite of what you'd usually hear.

>>1063941
>I think it happened but the numbers were questionable,
Why do people say this? What's the point?

>>1063958
Because most of the arguing is over the amount of deaths, when it might have been inflated for propaganda or miscalculated, some people draw the conclusion that because of this it did not happen at all.
