Druids were monotheists.

Fat, middle aged American women are ruining the memory of those men by making up loads of bullshit.

At age 12, shortly after his maternal grandmother died, King blamed himself and jumped out of a second story window, but survived.

King was originally skeptical of many of Christianity's claims. At the age of thirteen, he denied thebodily resurrection of JesusduringSunday school. From this point, he stated, "doubts began to spring forth unrelentingly". However, he later concluded that the Bible has "many profound truths which one cannot escape" and decided to enter theseminary.

Quote in pic sounds like Jesus when He said "how do you get rid off Satan with Satan?"

I guess Martin Luther King Jr was influenced by Gandhi as well

Ok one more, I guess he was born Michael Luther King Jr, then later had his named changed.

And unfortunately like most of the world's greatest people to come on Earth and teach outstanding ethics of peace, was assassinated.

>ooga booga where the Mediterranean women at

According to Caesar and Tacitus this.

>>574129
they had their own complex society if that's what you mean. Most of our direct information on the Gauls come from Caesar's account, which we can wasn't the most factual considering he was at war with them.

>>574163
And I mean the Germanics/Visigoths, the Gauls were regarded as more civilized by that time.

literally yes

>>574121
certainly not that in the flag

National Socialism =/= Fascism.

National Socialism is a subset of Fascism that promotes race theory as well as the preservation of the state.

Fascism is more about the unification and strengthening of the state under one leader.

I guess you could say Fascism is the more vanilla version of Fascism.

Its founder, Benito Mussolini, wasn't racist or anti-semitic anyway. The only reason he started to treat Jews badly during the war was for one of two commonly accepted reasons:

1, He feared what Germany would do if he didn't do it.

2. He saw Hitler as a friend and wanted to help him.

4Chan.

>why do we need them?
Because we're bored.

>Where would we be without them, as a whole and individual?
Probably far better off.

prison, it is wrong to confine people so, but the alternative is letting misbehaving folks run loose

>>574099
>what is a necessary evil
Nothing, it doesn't exist. Everything we consider necessary is only so because there is a greater good to come of it than bad. All actions, though, require some level of both, and therefore all goods are likewise necessary evils.

By ignoring Marx and come up with other good democratic version of it and pretend it's really communism when it really isn't.

>>574080

By including more nigguz n shit. Seriously, haz you ever seen a commie thinka who wasn't some dried up cracka? Dat shit ain't democratic at all. Democrats are like ma man Obama. That's democracy, bitch, not Leinin and Stalin and all those other nasty ass crackas killin people n shit.

Who /GreekLateClassical/ here?

>>574084

That expression is so fucking genuine.

>>574033

It was a "let's do something for a couple of years until we dare to attack the germans proper, and also to prevent Stalin from getting pissed off with us for not doing nothing relevant at all while he engages alone 90% of the german forces + axis and anti-soviet legions from all over Europe".

>Was the 1943 invasion of Sicily and later Italy a good strategic move

no, Churchill was a moron and was a massive failure in basically everything he ever did.

>potential was wasted operationally

Anzio was stupid, and the upper brass held Patton back purposefully because they wanted Montgomery to have a win for once in his life. People died for propaganda, fuck Eisenhower too.

Basically I'm saying that the Brits were worthless and could barely defend their own island even with US material assistance.

I would point out that the number of troops moved to Italy itself, as well as ancillary theaters like Yugoslavia and Greece to prevent further Allied springboarding, totaled to about 23% of what was in the Eastern Front in 1943 alone.

Don't get me wrong, the Soviets did the lion's share of defeating the Heer, but this whole "Everything the Western Allies did was irrelevant, it was all USSR" isn't really supportable.

>>574026

Is that an eddit of Korra?

>>574026

Britain never loses.

Perfidious Albion would have found some coalition or some way to win, like a street fighter backed into a corner.

Don't forget the Battle of Britain was fought, won and lost while the US was neutral and the USSR were the Nazis allies.

>>574026
When USA joined in the war already turned in the allies favor, it would have been the same outcome, but with more casualties and less american power.

>>574009

Is he?
4chan seems obsessed with him, other than that I dont really think that he is that relevant.

He basically invented modern warfare. Some would argue he along with the French revolution created the modern world.

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

>>574009
He was basically one of the first to utilize a disciplined and drilled army (modeled after Maurice) to great success. He also basically was responsible for the resurgence of cavalry into warfare in west Europe.
So, he was a pretty cool guy.

Poor bait.

The closest thing is USA in the late 19th - early 20th century, before that time there was no infrastructure for such mass migrations on long distances. As you may know, it turn out quite well for USA.

Im asking for informed historically founded answers, not mindless rightwing bullshit

You'll be hard pressed to find a general history book covering the known extent of human civilization that could be considered "godtier". You're better off researching respected authors/historians and learning piece by piece

>>573623
Better to learn a few things properly than take short glances at a lot of things, as Marcus Aurelius would say.
Additionally history isn't in a vacuum, if you learn a ton of one thing it will naturally bleed into the entire history of the time. So just pick a few things through history that really interest you, get deeply invested in them and you'll naturally get a well rounded understanding if you're inquisitive enough.

I'm no historian but 'The Human Web: A Bird's-eye View of World History' was a nice overview.

A privilege

It's a labyrinth Borges wrote for you.

Supposed to be an adventure.

Since the Fall in Genesis and the introduction of sin and death, life has become a burden.
