OP here, I'd take as much aluminium foil as possible because at the time that shit was super hard to get.

How does someone knowing what you will do in any way negate free will?

>How can free will exist if God knows everything you do before you do it?
Same way free will is compatible with when our own imperfect knowledge.

God doesn't exist.

Also free will is a meme.

Which is?

Please tell me. Last I heard the West is worshipping some Eastern God.

>>799519
>This is probably because Westerners care more about religion than Easterners do, just as a consequence of monotheism.

That's why Europe is being kucked by Muslims right now?

Because the Jews caused the French Revolution

>>799321
"Anti semitism" has existed as long as the Jews have existed.

>>799321
Because the French got a bug up their ass about creating a society of free, equal frenchmen out of a nation where only a small minority spoke French, and the Jews were a fly in the ointment.

But he was no illiterate like Muslims like to think.

>>798455

Sure, there are non-Muslim eyewitness accounts of him.

What do I have to do to live as hardcore of a life as him?

Tell me what you think nazi germany did.

>>798446

Declared total war on the World for muh lebensraum and revenge for WW I when in 1939 they had more land than in 1914. They got austria, they got bohemia, almost all of versailles punitive measures were abandoned. They did know where to stop.

If Germans were civilised people and not barbaric teutons appeasement would've worked.

Draw a map of the Mediterranean (a very basic but recognizable design that they could understand it to be).

Using Christianity as an example, whether or not it's actually happened yet, use symbols to display the spread of a cultural ideal throughout the Empire, complemented by charts to show the conflict between the different levels of Roman society and how it contributes to said idea's spread.

How familiar were the Romans with algebra?

We can't. The modern society is one of simplicity and clarity. No one can focus on anything for too long because they'd rather be enjoying other pleasures, and even then they'll go off again soon.
Not only do pop historians not help, but that's why they exist. They simplify history to such an extent that it's easy and clear to understand without any controversy or intrusion necessary, so the people can get the satisfaction of believing they've learned something without actually putting in the effort for it.

>>797683
This. All pop historians do is give uneducated people a smug sense of knowing the "real" history behind something, and it's always based on gross oversimplification. See: Jared Diamond and John Green.

>>797767
Jared Diamond is certainly a pop historian, but his work would be fine, though admittedly pretty low-tier, for the academic environment had the pop histories not jumped on his work simply because he tried to explain as many things as possible throughout history, meaning you only had to read one guy and feel like you know everything you need to.

Precisely because they pretty much had to get dragged kicking and screaming into capitalism. They had to adjust to that before anything, let alone go Red.

Sharecroppers.

>>797485
>>797507
That makes sense, but it still implies there was some resistance to it before capitalism became the norm. Was socialism in particular at any point popular in the South, and are there any good reads on it?

What's wrong with those?
