Did the "The Rape of Nanking," really happen?
61 posts and 11 images submitted.
>>
>>18844
only japs think that it didnt happen
>>
>>18844
Yes, it did. It's a little tricky to calculate numbers on it because all the Japanese records on it were burned towards the very end of the war, but it certainly occurred and 40-300k citizens died, depending on who you believe.

Go home Shinzo Abe.

And you can take Hiroshima with you.

Is it true that Malcolm X initially advocated for ideas such as black segregation and separatism? I understand he was also against racial mixing and was essentially a black nationalist.

If this is true, he would be a modern American liberal's nightmare for holding such ideas and a poor example of them to use as a leadership figure for blacks in the USA today. Did he renounce these ideas and shift his ideology?

>Did he renounce these ideas and shift his ideology

His idealogy changed when he made his pilgrimage to Mecca and saw everyone regardless of skin color praying together, realizing that racial problems stem from differences between cultures and not something inherent. The Nation of Islam didn't like that because they always preached about the White Devil, so a bunch of members of the NoI shot him.

So in the end were the Normans beneficial for England or did they just genocide a bunch of English and destroy their language?

The British Empire would not have existed where it not for the Norman conquest.

>brought true fuedalism to the still semi tribal Anglo Saxons
>truly entrenched interest in the Roman Empire in English nobility, leading to much of the inspiration for British Imperialists
>expanded the English language greatly
>seizure of the throne by William I and integration of Normandy into the K. of England led to the Hundred Years War, therefore causing the rivalry between France and England that survives to this day
>>
Both
Before Normans the English were just Anglo-Saxons.
They were germanic, did not use horses, had a loose feudal system that had early forms of representation. That would later reappear as the Parliament
The Normans who were frenchified northmen introduced french, and thereby more Latin, forms of feudalism with your classic dukes and barons. Big castles, horses, chivalry, all that good stuff.
It also would fuel the blossoming french-english relationship as sharing a land border would.
But yeah William the Conqueror also killed a bunch of rebels and burned some houses
However he was the last to have the privilege of getting to conquer/invade England, kill a bunch of pesant men then rape the widows
He was what, the forth?
>>
>>18697
The Normans are what made England relevant.

What is your favorite ancient civilization? And why?

I'd personally have to go with Ancient Egypt. Their culture, architecture, religion, art... I just find it all so fascinating.

Old Sumeria personally. I guess mostly because of the mystique of being the crib of human civilization. It makes even what little we know right now feel more weighty.

What are your favorite languages, and what parts of those languages make them your favorite? Also what is your most hated language?

Flemish I love because it sounds so fucking CUTE:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gXqF5XFqUuA
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UL8PGnfDXGk

Also Finnish and Icelandic for similar reasons. There are very few harsh sounds (with Flemish it's basically dutch without the hard gggggggg throat sound) and it sounds very pleasant even when people are angry.

Also I like the Mayan languages because the writing system gets so awesome, and it has pretty weird hard consonant clusters. Also the ɬ sound where you like use your cheeks, like like NahuaTL or TenochtiTLan:
https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/1/1e/Nawatl.ogg

Last cute language is Gaelic, here's a good example of scottish gaelic:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GU7HbJtop2Q

Lastly, fuck German.

German would be cool to use when you're pissed. Its all guttural and blunt. It's ugly as hell, but it's kinda like a dog that's so ugly it's cute.

>>17507
yeah that's why i said flemish

actual dutch, and german and swiss german all have that sound and it's fucking retarded
