Campaign setting: Ancient Egypt
-very religious
-very ceremonial
-gods play an active role in the world -- possible drama that the mortals get caught-up in
- strong family loyalties
- necromancy of a different sort
- Old World Myths (Sumerian, Ur, etc.)
- desert culture yes, but also deep forests further South, and rich delta to the north, and Mediterranean trade with other kingdoms
- Less of a "group of heroes" dynamic, versus "Great Hero and his Companions" dynamic

Rome? Sure, there were still patricians and plebeians but plebs still played a somewhat active role in politics and the Republic had this whole (on paper) "muh equality" thing going on. It also had a few success stories of soldiers who ended up becoming senators and governors purely by being really talented (and lucky). It's not perfect (nor is any system we have today for that matter) but it's the closest to a "group of equals" in the Ancient World. Hell, the Roman Emperors even called themselves "first among equals".

He was related to Gaius Marius. That's not a nobody but to be fair when Sulla won the civil war Caesar's family got fucked over pretty hard.

>>52714522
No, he was a pretty big player for most of his life. To make a comparison - it's like you had a modern politician who spend last 30 years doing different, high ranking government jobs, including few different ministeries and then was elected a president.
If you want real nobodies going big, check emperors starting each new dynasty in China. Half of them were leaders of peasant rebellions and peasants themselves, with Ming being probably the most prominent case.

Only in distant relict populations. Most wooly mammoth populations went extinct around 9-7000 BC, a good 3 millennia before the pyramids.

>>52715314
Ever heard Charlie Sheen's "winning" speech? It's kinda like that.

No one's life is exactly what they wanted or expected it to be - events are just too random for shit to ever be perfect, and there are hard limits to the amount of control you can exert over your own life.

But people don't want to believe that. Most of us (to varying degrees) just rewrite our own story as they go along. We forget the way we actually are and the way shit actually happened, and reinforce an idealized self by repeating our favorite lies until we believe them.

This is why testimony of eyewitnesses is always skewed, even from one telling to another. Their recollection of events changes over time, usually becoming less accurate. Same concept.

Once you grasp that, irrational behavior becomes a lot easier to understand. It's still cringey as fuck, don't get me wrong, but at least you can get the underlying mechanism of it.

>Lots of sand

Less than you'd think. Everyone thinks the Egyptians were these wacky dudes who spent 95% of their time building pyramids in the middle of the desert, and tend to forget the Egyptian civilization was really the civilization of the Nile River and delta. Theirs was primarily an agricultural civilization that grew and prospered due to the rich black soil that spilled from the Nile every year. More farming rich fields, less dudes riding around on camels in the middle of the desert.

>>52711218
>It never rains

Actually, it depends on what part of Egypt you are talking about. The climate of northern Egypt is influenced a great deal by the Mediterranean Sea, particularly in the winter months, where winds from the north carry moisture from the sea down over the Nile delta, creating bad-ass sandstorms and thunderstorms. Set, one of the leading gods of ancient Egypt, was a god of, among other things, thunderstorms. The south of Egypt gets no rain.

>>52714516
He came from a prominent patrician family.

>>52714380
Rome was equitable on paper only, more as a means for the Patricians to appease and control the Plebeians than out of any real sense of altruism for the most part. Plebians played the role of glorified rubber-stamp for any laws the Senate made, and in elections were marginalized as much as possible so that Patrician and Equite families had almost all say politically.

>>52715182
The distance in time between the building of the Pyramids at Giza and Cleopatra's reign is about the same amount of time between Cleopatra's Reign and today.

>>52712993
>Every little town had their own god

It started that way, yes, before proper ancient Egyptian unification, with a series of little towns along the Nile with their own set of local gods. As ancient Egypt unified, as conquering warrior-kings moved from town to town down the Nile, the small local gods were typically merged with the larger Egyptian pantheon, with gods representing similar concepts merged together into a single deity. This encouraged cultural homogeneity in the developing civilization.

>>52717169
>>52717298
Also, during Islamic times Egypt often more frequently dominated the region than the Arabs.

Do you want a setting that is actually based on ancient egypt? Or just a setting based in the desert? Because I find that when most people say one thing, they mean the other.

>>52714818
Morticians everywhere in every culture have done that.

The Egyptians didn't like the thought of getting fucked by the embalmers, so they eventually adopted a tradition of leaving the body of a qt3.14 at home for a couple of days before sending it to be mummified so she wouldn't be so appealing.

>>52711037
>paid slaves (weird isn't it? But it's actually true)
Drafting peasants for public works in the months where they were not required to plow fields is far from slavery. The construction workers at Giza were paid in part with roasted mutton and pork, and the architects and mathematicians were given beef, the most valuable kind of meat in Egypt. All the workers were also given excellent medical care. The average Egyptian's diet was very simple, consisting mostly of emmer bread and beer, accompanied by garlic, onion, cucumber, and seasonal fruits, while fish and meat, usually salted, were often rarer.

Menkaure's pyramid, the smallest of the three Gizan pyramids, was built over 35 years by 10,000 workers who hauled stone blocks for months beginning in July. The smaller force of skilled engineers worked on the site year-round, calculating angles, cutting blocks and the like. Presumably many of the temples and roads were built in the same way.

>>52717816
This is correct. It's important to remember that the vast majority of the population lived on the fertile banks of the Nile. The red desert was personified by Seth, who was also the god of hostility, violence and foreigners (but not necessarily evil, as he was the only one who could survive the gaze of the Serpent of Chaos, Apophis, and slay him). The Egyptians saw the desert-dwellers, such as Berbers and Bedouins, as foreign people.

The next thing was that a couple of rebels are said to have given up because the Pharao attacked them with his astral body during their sleep. That apparently happened automatically simply because the Pharao's souls were fuck powerful.

>So you basically got a stretch of land where shit happens and desert into which nobody ventures because fuck that shit.
Yes, that's pretty much it. The Pharaohs' largest border fortresses were in Tjaru (east of the Delta) to guard the Way of Horus along the Mediterranean coast to Canaan, and the Aswan garrison at the 1st cataract, the traditional border of Upper Egypt, to guard the land against the Kushites. These border cities also levied taxes on caravans. While Tjaru was the most important pharaonic fortress, capable of holding thousands of soldiers and built with massive walls of mud bricks strengthened with seashells, it was also a common place of exile for criminals due to the harsh desert environment.

Most of the other Egyptian settlements far from the Nile were small garrison-towns, many of them in the scorching Sinai peninsula to guard turquoise mines and as a first line of defence against the "Asiatics" and the "Sand-crossers". The notable exceptions were the Siwa Oasis with its famous temple of Amun, mostly inhabited by subject Berbers; the city of Hibis in the Kharga Oasis; and at least one large Red Sea port, as Queen Hatshepsut's maritime voyage to Punt suggests (probably Quseir).

Smaller southern garrisons, usually having a couple hundreds soldiers at most, were built along the banks of the Nile south of Aswan after the conquest of Nubia by Senusret III. Letters of them written to the capital have detailed reports of the border guards patrolling the lands with their police dogs, occasionally "confiscating" the possessions of some unlucky native Nubians and taking them as slaves. Many Pharaohs enjoyed sending even larger war expeditions to foreign lands to extract tribute, and Nubia/Kush were the prime target due to the richness of these lands and relative ease of conquest.

>>52722828
>Many Pharaohs enjoyed sending even larger war expeditions to foreign lands to extract tribute, and Nubia/Kush were the prime target due to the richness of these lands and relative ease of conquest.

I find it endlessly amusing how virtually the only interaction Nubians of WE WAS KANGS fame had with ancient Egyptians for the vast majority of the history of the Egyptian civilization was for the Nubians to get repeatedly conquered, enslaved, their men killed or castrated, and their gold stolen by a long series of Pharaohs. It was partially a greed thing, and partially a strategic thing for the Egyptians, who did not want to stand by and let potentially strong empires form on their borders.

Idiot.

The Persian, Greek, Roman, and Arab conquests didn't involve depopulations and colonization. In each case, you would have had a tiny, TINY, aristocratic/administrative/mercantile class moving in, and the vast majority of the previous population would stay the same.

Actually an interesting event in the desert could be a flash flood caused by a rainstorm, or another threat could be made from the flooding of the nile, which happened regularly. That gives you interesting terrain hazards to work with.

Also, you HAVE to do a tomb-exploration sequence at least once. That gives a legitimate setting to run into a lot of intricate traps and encounter mobs set there to guard some treasure.
Better yet, I like the idea of having the party go through a bunch of traps in a tomb, only to find that some other thief ALREADY stole the treasure, but was just so damn good that he could evade all the traps while stealing the loot away.

"Colonization" as in large numbers of settlers arriving in sufficient numbers to begin displacing the native population. Of course there were estates claimed by Alexander and Ptolemy's men, which is why I mentioned a new aristocratic class in my post. For the average Egyptian though, day-to-day life changed very little from being part of the Persian Empire to being part of the Ptolemaic kingdom.

U wot m8? One of the biggest reasons that Egypt, a river-based civilization along the Nile, unified and became stronger quicker than the other river-based civilizations of the era was that Egypt was geographically isolated by being naturally surrounded on three sides by desert, and was therefore much more difficult to invade. This, as compared to the other river-based civilizations of the era along the Tigris and Euphrates rivers, which were being constantly invaded and weakened from day one by their neighbors, who could attack and be attacked from any direction over land.

It's actually fairly likely that what he actually said was "hoti to Kratero", or whatever that would be in Ancient Greek - "to Craterus", one of his generals, his most favored, who was the only one of his generals who wasn't present at his deathbed as he was instead off building a fleet to take them all back to Macedon.

I never understood what it is I'm exactly supposed to be taking away from a picture of a black person and a gorilla or other ape side-by-side. You can clearly see the much larger forehead on the black person, indicative of the much larger brain - as it is in every human.

For that matter the ears are placed somewhat lower and are larger, too. Gorillas have very pronounced muzzles while black folk just have large lips and broad noses, but that's an environmental adaptation to the climate in which they evolved and has nothing to do with intelligence.

Not that I buy into the idea that any significant number of Egyptians were black (although statistically speaking there must have been at least a few). I just don't see what point is trying to be made.

>>52723782
>still the same language family

The official language of Egypt is Modern Standard Arabic. The regional dialects spoken by most is either Egyptian Arabic (68%) or Sa'idi Arabic (29%).

Arabic as a whole does not bare strong relation to ancient Egyptian - they're about as close as Greek and Celtic, or Hindi and German; that is, you might find a few words in common here and there, but only the barest handful.

>>52733786
>I never understood
The skull morphology is obviously different, but the main point is to mock them for their prognathism, their projecting jaws. Most non-africans find it pretty ugly, and it's easy to compare it to the way a non-human ape's jaw'ss look.

All humans are apes, but that bit of pedantry aside:

No shit. I'm just telling you why their jaws are used to mock them. You're on 4chan, you shouldn't get too upset about this sort of thin. Finally, it's less jaw = intelligence, and more an attempt to cast them as generally primitive and unevolved.

Don't you dare say I believe in any of this (other than them being ugly as fuck), either. I'm giving you an explanation.

>>52733859

Indeed, and to a lesser extent it's meant to portray black people as primal and animalistic while whites are cultured and well-built.

Ironically, it is this same association with the bestial that makes black people subject to so much cuckoldry and "superior BBC" porn, as the black "bull" is portrayed as a vicious unthinking stud that needs to mount a white girl and breed her like a bitch. To many people, this is watched with the same feelings as watching a girl fuck her dog or horse.

Which reminds me of the other stereotype, black men are hung. Large penises have historically been viewed as goofy and animalistic, just as a large-breasted woman often "came from the country." Insisting black people all have womb-wreckers is thus another way to continue seeing blacks as aggressive, barely tamed animals.

>>52733928
You don't really need any of that when you can just look at crime statistics and the state of majority black/religionofpeace countries.

>>52733977
There's a strong argument to be made that crime has more to do with income than race: black people tend to be poorer in America (due to a history of systemic racism and that fact that a sizable portion of them are the descendants of liberated slaves who weren't exactly given the best opportunities to increase their financial status), and poor people tend to commit more crimes than wealthier people.

>>52734042
They were leading the statistics even when the correlation of wealth and social status was eliminated. Also notice how countries that are the nicest and most generous beta bitches towards immigrants have the most problems and terror attacks, while slavs are publicly racist and don't have problems with them because they don't even let them in, literally the only correlation is how many immigrants you have and it's meaningless how well you try to treat them and how many free iphones you buy them.

Really activates the almonds.

>>52734042
>due to
A culture that stigmatizes education, a welfare system that's too easily abused, and climate that renders it impossible to try and improve said culture from the outside.

Blacks in America actually own less property and businesses NOW than they did in the 50's, when there actually was systemic racism.

>>52734042
The income of blacks is lower because they're lazy and stupid. Money doesn't magically appear out of thin air in the hands of employers, they need good employees to make money for the company first. Employment is a mutually beneficial thing, but niggers can't hold up their end.

>>52734152
>A culture that stigmatizes education, a welfare system that's too easily abused, and climate that renders it impossible to try and improve said culture from the outside.

Which developed after years of systemic racism. Blacks were treated differently from whites for generations, so why wouldn't a counterculture form? Black culture was formed because they couldn't be apart of white culture, not because they're worse or better than other races.

>>52734337
>Which developed after years of systemic racism.
Then why did that culture only develop after systemic racism was outlawed? Read the final line in my post again.

You need to stop pretending people can't be to blame for their own problems just because they aren't white. Though I consider the government and plenty of activists who think they're helping them just as much at fault.

>>52733215
What were you expecting?

>>52734337
Also, I want to add that a very similar culture exists among poor whites. Where's the systemic racism that created that one?

>>52734346
Of course the people doing the thing are to blame. Its not current societies fault that black culture is what it is. However, its equally idiotic to think that when society WAS systemically racist it has nothing to do with it. Just because the systems stopped being racist, it doesn't mean racism stopped. Whites would still push blacks away, leading to the creation of their own culture, a culture heavily influenced by the poor. Because blacks in america have always been poorer than whites, due to the nature of how they got there.

>>52734379
No, that kind of culture is due to poorer economic standing. The difference is that 'black culture' is defined as that kind of culture. While if your anything else, its just 'poor culture'.

>>52734441
It's idiotic to think that the end of systematic racism caused systemic racism to take away all the black bussinesses and land ownership. Anyone with sense can see that, you know, there's something else at work there.

You might say an overall wealth disparity COULD be caused by it, but the present situation? The way it is and the severity? No fucking way, because this came about after the 50's ended and people were forced not to be racist.

>Whites would still push blacks away
It was illegal for them to. And again, you can't claim that this issue somehow got worse after it became illegal, thus forcing them to sell all their land somehow. Own the fuck up.

>That kind of culture is due to poorer economic standing
Newsflash? That's why black culture is shit. It's a poverty culture that refuses to let people out. Same as redneck culture. It's not caused by racism like you think, it's caused by poverty.

>>52734512
>It's not caused by racism like you think, it's caused by poverty.

I understand that, but the poverty wasn't caused by some genetic inability to run businesses or make good financial decisions. It was caused by one colour of people thinking that a different colour was worse than themselves. They started the race late, and at a major disadvantage. A white person would always go to a white business, and since they were the majority AND had most of the money, the economic growth of whites would far surpass that of blacks. leading to poorer blacks blah blah blah... you know the rest.

>>52734561
Your entire issue is that you think somehow they were forced DEEPER into poverty after society started moving away from shit like segregation. It makes no logical sense.

>>52734379

White trash tend to have distinct looks, mainly gangly limbs and hollow faces alongside a general mongrelized appearance.

>>52734589
Drugs and malnutrition.

>>52734579
People ARE forced deeper into poverty, but that's an economic issue, not a racial one. It just so happens that blacks in most white dominated countries are poorer than whites. How they got to that point WAS a racial one. It stopped being a racial issue. That's true. But the cause of the problem was fueled by race not money.

>>52734650
How they became poorer in general, yes. I'm not disputing that. I'm disputing the idea that it was systemic racism that caused them to descend further into poverty after systemic racism became verboten. That's a different creature.

Funnily enough, changing a law does not instantly improve things. After all, that was fundamentally the end result of the Civil War, but that didn't help many blacks from being functionally still slaves for a generation after it's end, and Jim Crow laws being enacted in the first place to keep blacks down.

The various reforms of the 1950s and 1960s likewise may have changed how things should be done on paper, but in practice actual change has been much slower to come.

For example, there are schools that are "resegregating", and in some places schools that never desegregated in the first place:

>>52735397
Well, the core of our argument wasn't so much about the civil rights movement. Rather, it was about how even during that time period, blacks were collectively wealthier than they are now. So the argument was that the civil rights movement can't have logically made them poor, which is what he seemed to be saying. This was all frame within a discussion about how black culture is the reason for black poverty and thus crime rates. Though those three things are all interconnected really.

>For example, there are schools that are "resegregating", and in some places schools that never desegregated in the first place:
Not a symptom of Jim Crow, this is happening in Europe too. Despite the constant whining about "muh integration" self-segregation is natural. Look up what De Gaulle already predicted about the French and Arabs acting like oil and vinegar. This is also why London has the biggest white flight seen in modern history, over ten years a number of whites left comparable to the entire population of Glasgow. This has made London the first minority native European capital.

This is only natural when you consider that diversity is not a strength, as the left loves to mindlessly repeat over and over, but destroys social cohesion (http://www.migrationobservatory.ox.ac.uk/resources/briefings/immigration-diversity-and-social-cohesion/)*. If we assume this fact, than the recurring self-segregation is natural: as social beings we enjoy social cohesion, so when we see it disturbed we seek to restore it. Kind seeks kind, the blacks concentrate in inner cities while the whites leave (see: Detroit) or the whites claim the inner city and push the blacks to the periphery (see: Paris).

>her case for a fourth term as German chancellor
like all the so-called "conservatives" in Europe she's trying to steal away votes from the 'extreme right'. VVD did this to PVV in the Netherlands, Les Républicains are trying to do this to Front National in France and Merkel's CDU will do this to AfD in Germany.

>>52735363
The recent alledged policy changes are just a smoke screen, because they noticed voters were stopping being good goys and voting for protest parties to make the rape stop.

The worst part is that it's actually working and normalfags immediedly forgot the attempted genocide when the immigrant flood was slightly decreased. When the trend of far right populism has lost all of it's momentum, the globalists will resume their plans. Voters have an extremely short memory.

A compassionate young royal surgeon forced into exile, travelling in foreign lands, using his skills in medicine to heal those in need while at the same time spying on the foreign rulers because his loyalty still lies with Egypt, with only an old half-blind slave as his companion who's both faithfully obedient to his master and a genius strategic thinker, eventually earning his freedom (against his own wishes) and rising to a position of great power.

>>52735402
>The issue is that most of the EU doesn't actually have the power of self-determination here. Germany and Brussels control the reins, and they have repeatedly threatened fines for nations like Poland if they don't take in a set number of these migrants.

Anon, these fines, according to the plans published would be substracted from the money the East-Central EU nations recieve out of common funding pots, changes in which can't be enacted without the nations explicitly agreeing to them in the first place.

Like they'd have to agree to have their portion of cash they recieve from Brussel annually cut at whichever rate per refugee was agreed upon. Fat chances that'll happen.

Also pretty much all finances are spoken for already until 2020, so first chance to bring that on the table will be three years from now.

Finally, you don't really understand German politics at all. Their politicians clawed a way for its nations back onto the international stage by means of being the good boys when it comes to human rights and international cooperation, so she had to do something or risk taking hits to the pedigree they feel they built for themselves.

Anon, they wouldn't have cared, if not for the fact that the US and Russia both made an issue outta it. They looked for a way out of their dilemma and back onto the international stage and found that throwing their lot in with international cooperation and being the good boys in regards to human rights worked best.

Plus the on the grounds reality is that Nazis were happily reintegrated into all levels of society. There are no Nazi-communites comparable to the communities of former prisoners of war's families' communities in North Korea. In fact, wherever Nazi communities actually form in Germany, they usually terrorize and drive off the locals who do not share their worldview.

Productivity has been rising in Germany for decades and wages are trailing far behind that. There's absolutely no point in importing people who're known to be less productive than the mean citizen under such circumstances.

I already explicitly told you why she dropped the no-migration stance for a couple of months.

It was a temporary exception, they started strengthening border protections as a result of it. In general, the EU isn't taking in people, the whole Schengen-Agreement is about making legal entry for refugees as hard as possible and the majority of refugees aren't housed in Europe in the first place.

There's an insignificant trickle of illegal immigrants they're currently trying to break down far enough for their voters&the media to stop giving a damn about them, that's what's happening. Doesn't work because many Eastern Central Euro nations are currently being too damn loud about european Ethnonationalism.

Why the fuck are we talking about EU immigration police rather than the fucking Ancient Egypt?

/quest/ is a containment board but it actually does its job, the same with /lgbt/, /mlp/ and /soc/. They are passive containment boards which works because the userbase will be satisfied by that.
The problem with /pol/ is that its userbase won't be content with having an entire board to shit up, they have a pathological need to spread their shit elsewhere. They have even enacted their own lebensbraun policy where they'll fan out into the other boards under the excuse that those boards are slower and don't need the space. This is an excuse that they use to justify their own perpetual shitposting because if their containment board didn't have enough space, then they could try to have it given extra pages but instead they would rather try to crowd out the rest of the boards.
Since passive containment isn't working, I think /pol/ should start becoming active containment where any post on /pol/ bars posting outside of /pol/ for two days.

>>52738648
>they have a pathological need to spread their shit elsewhere.
Not really. The difference is that being a zoophile or a camwhore doesn't come up on other boards a lot, whereas politics does. The only way to truly "contain" /pol/ is to make "unwelcome" opinions absolutely forbidden. This would make 4chan the facebook Merkel ever dreamed of. Do you really want that, or are you willing to have your feelings hurt once in a while to guarantee that you can do the same to even bigger faggots than yourself?

Except /pol/acks have a complete inability to be remotely civil, they spam obnoxious memes (a /sci/ thread about India finishing the largest solar power plant got flooded with toilet humor), get the most basic of facts wrong (they've claimed that Stalin was a jew, that the British empire started declining by the 1800s, that three Jews in minor positions in the Communist party of China were the ones really in control) and whenever someone tries to correct them on anything, they'll shout accusations of being JIDF or some other bullshit instead of trying to learn.

Lumping them into one organism is stupid. I've seen people claim that Stalin saved the USSR from the evil Jewish Bolshevik plots. They're individuals, not robots, they differ in views.

>>52738648
Boards like /lgbt/ or /soc/ don't work as containment either. They just let disease fester on 4chan instead of just removing it.

>>52738988
See >>52738714 again. When relevant it's pretty hard to keep them out of the subject. Like if we're talking about a ttrpg based on star wars, it's hard to keep talk about the movies or comics out, even if, if you're not being a hypocrite, those conversations should be shunned for not being kept where they belong.

>>52738909

I've been told to go back to /pol/ while remaining civil multiple times.

>spam obnoxious memes
That happens pretty much everywhere on this board. You can bearly mention bears on /tg/ for example.

>Get the most basic facts wrong
For every poster that thinks Britain started declining in the 1800s, there are five who think Britain effectively rules America. Ever considered /pol/ isn't one person? Have you considered correcting these people rather than crying that they should go away? That's the whole idea behind public discourse: that wrong opinions are corrected, or at least discredited in the eyes of more reasonable people. Idiots will always exist, but by declaring their opinions absolut verboten you make it look as if they're right and you're just too butthurt to engage them.

>B-but muh off topic posts
Then they're just that: off topic. Whether it's le ebin pol boogeyman, some sjw tumblrina or some stale memes, just point out your real problem: it's off topic. But that's not really your problem, is it? After all, /tg/ keeps spamming that it's the board that invalidates all other boards, right?

Yes, I try all the time. But rather than getting a legitimate response I get accused of being a Jew or a shill which is a problem with /pol/lack mindsets that I pointed out in the post you responded to that you ignored in order to bash a strawman.

>Whether it's le ebin pol boogeyman, some sjw tumblrina or some stale memes, just point out your real problem: it's off topic.
Yeah, and a ton of off-topic shitposting comes from /pol/ and can usually be identified as coming from /pol/ by the content.

Gentrification is real, but explain to me how it inherrently affects poor blacks more than it affects poor whites. It affects black people more often because there are more poor blacks, because they on average have an IQ one standard deviation below the average white IQ which leads to factors that cause poverty such as
>lower paying jobs
>worse financial decisions/planning
>teenage parenthood
>crime (which robs families of breadwinners and taxes social infrastructure/resources)
These factors are interconnected, but it's not exactly "the man keeping a brother down". Once again, this is why we see this pattern recur even in countries that never had Jim Crow-esque laws, or countries that never had colonies for that matter. Countries that did nothing that can be deemed harmful to black people even according to the broadest, SJW-est standards see this pattern recurring. Hell, this pattern is even occuring in China, much to the frustration of a populace and a ruling class that doesn't suffer from "yellow guilt".

>>52738648
>I think /pol/ should start becoming active containment where any post on /pol/ bars posting outside of /pol/ for two days.
Not far enough. Posting on pol, or posting their shit or memes elsewhere is a permaban. Enact it universally without warning, permaban the lot of them and range-ban the phones.
Then if we just keep reporting shit that is then against the amended rules, it will stop.

In the meantime, I advocate a policy of just hiding their shitspam and not replying.

Well, if there's actual housing discrimination happening, poor whites can move to better 'hoods while poor nonwhites can't.
Meaning that any poor white that barely can make enough to afford housing in a better hood will still end up richer as he's now living in a place that got a working infrastructure, actual businesses and decently funded schools. That will affect his kid's life as they get non-shit schooling and have chances to find actual employment. Probably also means that he'll have easer access to consumer credit cards as places of residence is calculated into whether those companies will feel you're worth ripping off.

Also let's not forget that the US government historically tends to throw money at poor white people. Like that housing bubble that burst a while ago was basically such a scheme and Trump's promises of economic recovery is aimed at traditional white communities too. There was a hella lot of absolutely uniroinc grumbling in all of the media all throughout Obama's term about how not enough money was being spent on the non-coloured.

Meanwhile the nigger who can't rent outside of his hood can't get out either because there's no public transport, so he'll have to keep buying one 800-dollar-cars that break down after half a year after the other just to get to his minimum-wage-job. This'll probably be eating up any reserves he got and his kids still are going to shit awful schools.

>Hell, this pattern is even occuring in China, much to the frustration of a populace and a ruling class that doesn't suffer from "yellow guilt".

The Chinese are hella racist. That China's officially a multicultural society doesn't affect that in any way.

Poor whites have never just existed in the appalachian mountains. Poor white farmers existed everywhere up and down the east coast and the midwest.

New Kingdom gets you Ramesses and such, your stereotypical vision. But what are the differences between New Kingdom and the various other periods?
When people have Romans interacting with Egypt, I assume they're anachronistically showing Cleo in charge of a New Kingdom Egypt - or is that somewhat fair, were the Ptolemys just sort of cargo cult-ing the old Egyptian ways?
Old Kingdom are the guys building the pyramids, but I don't know what else we're getting out of them (except maybe Dwayne Johnson leading an army of badly-CGI'd jackals).

To put the MOAB in perspective, during the Vietnam war, the USA regularly carpetbombed locations with the equivalent of 80 MOAB's.

The only thing special about the MOAB is that it's 'just' a single bomb.

>>52754054
The big thing about it is that it doesn't carry oxidiser like a normal bomb. It's a fuel/air explosive, so it uses air for it's oxidiser. This makes it fucking wonderful for dealing with cave complexes; not only does the huge force collapse the caves, but it sucks all the oxygen out the air, and the subsequent vacuum sucks all the air out the caves.
Which then collapse due to the blast effects, neatly burying everyone inside.
