Literal garbage philosophy if you actually read all the way up to now. Things don't have essencez n shitz.

There is none, Plato got everything right. Retards can't even understand forms and want to say shit, kill yourselves them you dumbfucks lol.

World of forms might actually be one of the worst philosophical ideas ever.

X tier. That's some tinfoil hat nibimaru shit man

China has banned foreign media in vietnam since 40 or so years ago.

Drugs probably rise up rural areas were cops have little funding. I know one farming village in michigan where nearly everybody smokes pot and hunts out of season, it's like a state trooper feeding ground.

Well they did introduce a lot of shit. They smuggled drugs in to the US, tried drugs on people all over Europe and in the US as well then studied said peoples behaviour.

>People today are not like the noble ancients, they are people living false lives.

This is an observation that every generation makes. The ancient greeks also thought the same way you do. Wake up sheeple!

Yeah, people have said the exact same thing every generation for thousands of years.

>noble ancients

I wouldn't say i'm a huge expert on the Fall of Rome, i've only skimmed through maybe 4 books.

The newer books offer much better summeries than the older books, such as Gibbons, but I wouldn't recomend being a casual, for one particular reason: The accounts of all the older books is different. For instance, AsiImov claims Stilicho sold out to Alaric, or at least fed rumors that this happened, and was killed by his own men in a church. This account of Stilicho differs from others, which I don't have memory to elaborate on.

But yeah, older, opinionated sources, when read together, make you really question the motives and mindset of the people, and the newer sources tend to be "Well this guy died because he was retarded."

Relative decline of the firepower available for deployment relative to the needs created by the empire.

The UK could never sustain an empire that big in the late 20th century, it could never bring overwhelming strength into one problem area. This was possible in the past, with more isolated rebellions being sustainable to smaller British units, making the empire both affordable and worthwhile. By at least the 1920's it was clear that the UK had lost the monopoly of firepower on the seas, and new innovations like airpower could not make up the gap in power lost.

Well it's not so much as a hard 12 page minimum as a general idea of about how long it should end up being based on how much information students generally get in per page.

Emo was romanticist, punk was modern at first but became pomo

you're generalizing

Post modernists are even more against romanticism than modernism.
The fault with modernism is that it failed to be truly "enlightened" it was never self-critical and always had an unshakable faith in progress.

Romanticism only regresses us further, post-modernist seek to fix the issues of modernism, not to end the project.

I'm about half way through this.

Very good look at Nazi policy and views through the last few months of the war. Nothing really new, but a very good account nevertheless.

He was alright, not great, but not terrible either.

Had great in art.

King Charles took a Coronation Oath and should have remembered his duty was to his people instead of trying to kill as many of them as possible.

He was a bit of an autist t b h

why would you think that? no

Also I read somewhere that originally banzai charges were actually well coordinated sneak attacks where they sneak up on enemy behind lines and yell banzai only at the last minute as they stab their swords into the enemy?

There was Russia too...

They should have kept a defensive position in regards to Russia and just stop for a while their conquests.

>do you think that the Germans could have actually won WWI

Nope. Not while fighting so many countries at the same time. They were bound to drop dead sooner or later out of sheer exhaustion.

Willy II fucked up the foreign policy so bad it's painful to watch.

>>342376
Breaking the alliance with Russia *shudder*. He even fired Bismarck, the greatest statesman of all time!

But what if the Schlieffen plan succeeded? Germany could've then pivoted towards Russia and focused their efforts there, with the Empire likely collapsing if the revolution continued as per normal. The rapid fall of France could've dissuaded Britain. Of if the U.K chose not to intervene for other reasons?

>>342350
They couldn't have one. Before the Armistice was signed the new government asked the military high command, (Hindenburg and Ludendorff) if they could win the war and they said they couldn't because they had exhausted pretty much all their man power.
