  • Did Persian kings actually fight at the front line? Far as I know they just paid tons of mercenaries while sitting somewhere far away.

    Besides, Persians shouldn't talk shit in Muslim hearing range. Considering how utterly Persia was demolished by them, you'd think their people collectively forgot how to hold a sword.

  • I don't know of anyone who ever mocked ancient Rome, contemporary or modern. Even China considered them to be somewhat equal just based on stories. And the Chinese emperors of old legit believed they ruled everything under the heaven.

  • To keep a regime built on strength running, you need to be strong or project strength. Doesn't matter if its fascism or communism or to some degree even a democracy. Mussolini was sour Hitler did everything he did, but better and with more resources. Hitler just considered him his prototype who paved the way for him. Mussolini had no choice but to become "Hitler's bitch" since he already burned all bridges with everyone else due to Ethiopia. It got so bad in the end that Mussolini was happy when he was arrested and imprisoned, and horrified when Hitler freed him and put him back in power. He was long since over that life at that point.

  • Was it the Assyrians or just the Sumerians who had this tradition? Because in the Fall of Civilization podcast about Assyria, the host mentioned there is a tradition where the king makes a guy king for a month then kills him to appease slash "fool" the gods. Happened more than once. Also kinda strange how Enlil-bani managed to rule for 24 years, considering it's usually the powerful nobles / powerful families who command the armies and thus decide who gets to be king.

  • Brother stop your empty revenge fantasies. No one wants to go to jail for the rest of their lives or shot by bodyguards for killing soulless MAGA lich #26153 that will be replaced within minutes if not seconds. FORMER Maga lich no less.

  • Tell them how to make gunpowder.

    That right here is all you need. If you can actually forge a gun and show them how to make gunpowder, you don't need anything else. Although even then you would probably be executed shortly after for being a threat to the nobility.

  • Let me cook you something AMAZING!

    First I need some curry...uh...okay, do you have salt? WHAT?

    Alright, where is the oven? Time to prepare you some amazing lasagna! Where do you keep your noodles? No noodles? I guess I can hack it with potatoes.

    ...PO-TA-TOES! YOU...WHAT???

    Okay nevermind, let me show you why you need to stop spending all your money on survival in warfare and instead fund my school! I can teach you to...uh...tell you about things we have in the future. No, I don't know how to create any of that. But trust me bro, just give me money. No need to tie me to your trebuchet like that, I'm sure I can remember how to build an airplane somehowAHHHHHHHHHH

    You tried.

    Edit: But don't worry, your myriads of novel diseases in your body will pretty much wipe out the continent you spawned on. Revenge!

  • “Ms. Dugan wholeheartedly regrets and protests her arrest,” her attorney, Craig Mastantuono, told U.S. Magistrate Judge Stephen C. Dries. “It was not made in the interest of public safety, and we ask that the court allow her release.”

    Dries released Dugan from custody to await future court proceedings.

    Yep. Good luck finding a judge convicting another judge. What the fuck is that retard thinking?

  • Tankies are nazis now too? My my.

    But more than that, I no longer care. There is ALWAYS a battle between fascists and commies when a country falls apart by the dissolving of the middle class. Traditionally the fascists win, because they have the (at first reluctant) backing of the establishment and of course all rich people. But everyone should know at this point it ALWAYS leads to catastrophe for the country. I choose gommunism this time if I'm forced to choose by Trump and his conglomeration of amoeba. Those fuckers want the country to burn down? I burn it down first by helping to establish American juche.

  • Have seen euromaidanpress articles before, I think they're legit if not a bit sensationalist and obviously very pro-Ukraine.

    And of course Russia blames a smoooooking incident. There's this one Russian guy who just smokes everywhere he shouldn't. Munition storages, aviation bases, flagship Moskva...

  • Thanks, saved me having to write that. There is a lot of valid criticism women can level against "the modern man", depending on the culture they live in. But this is not it. I have never heard of a guy claiming to be of higher status and cussing off a woman who rejected him. Maybe we sometimes think we're higher status than a woman or whatever, but then again we do that with other men too. It's a human thing, not a gender thing. Women most definitely categorize men into lower and higher strata subconsciously too, if nothing else.

  • That's correct. In school the most important thing you can possibly learn is to learn. Information is abundant and easily accessible, the school, university or even research labs are no longer gatekeepers of information. But knowing HOW to find resources, HOW to filter it, HOW to use it, HOW to sit your ass down and work with information in a meaningful way is a specialized and rare skill.
