> Chinese younger brother of Jesus
> literally 100 000 000 people dead
You can't made this shit up
I'd be pissed too if my big bro got killed

It's fucking China. If millions of peasants don't die of hunger due to war disrupting agriculture, they don't even bother recording it.
>>997435
The scale of death and destruction in China whenever shit hits the fan is incomparable. Poor fucking chinks
>>997662
That's what happens when you reproduce to the maximum sustenable extent thanks to an extremely efficient crop: every time a moron ruins a rice paddy, a hundred chinks die of hunger.
>>997746
Fucking rice, man. Fucking rice.
>>997435
He also had giant demon slaying swords
Throughout history, I bet more Chinese people died than all the other peoples of the world combined.
>>997810
>>997843
>destroying children
what the fuck did I just read
>>997810
Impossible. They never made up 50% of the population at any point in time.
>>997810
Up until the 19th century I can completely agree with that. With a population that throughout history and so many record die offs it must still be in the top ten at least
>>997891
It's called Infanticide nowadays.
>>997927
But why would they do it?
>>997935
A kid is a big expense with no returns for a long time. When you have to work 16h/day every day of the year just to eat, you don't have the resources to rear a child.
>>997935
Without any means of contraception, it was a form of abortion. Many cultures practiced it, Greek and Romans did it too. Some times it's better to left your child die to let other 5 to survive.
>>997951
Did no abortive herbs grow in China? Aborting seems like a much safer option going through the whole pregnancy and giving birth just to leave the kid to die. Shit like pennyroyal and parsley aren't Europe only I think?
>>997810
Possibly. The only other civilization that matched them throughout history was India and it had its war moments, but never to the scale of Chinese deaths.
When the Chinks say "we're peaceful and have never conquered", know that its a lie.
>Chinese civil war happens
>World population goes down by 15%
>>997435
>100 000 000 people dead
That's pretty minimal for Chinese history.
>>998033
Well since 1979 they haven't gone to war.
rice + small but efficient asian penis = population boom
>>997435
>>literally 100 000 000 people dead
Any time death tolls like this are given before the modern era, one eyebrow should always be raised.
>>999387
Seth MacFarlane pls go
>>997435
More about him please.
>>999387
Nice meme XDDDDDddd
>>1000246
He was proof that Jesus actually existed
If he had triumphed we would have another major Abrahamic religion competing with Islam and Christianity.
>tfw that's how religions are born
>tfw Muhammad was just a Xiuquan that went right
>>997975
>Aborting seems like a much safer option going through the whole pregnancy
The herbs that gave you an abortion also caused a shitload of bleeding, you had about a good a chance of surviving it as you did pregnancy.
>>998081
No it isn't, the Yellow Turban rebellion is like #3 on the deadliest conflicts list.
>>999436
>before the modern era
It was the 1860s. There are much more valid records and the like to support these figures compared to what you seem to be implying
>>997843
>marriage is encouraged [in China], not because of the profitableness of children, but because of the liberty of destroying them
I guess killing children is a kind of liberty, huh?
>>1001069
If you are married, you can kill your kids, and its just reducing your expenses.
If you arent married, you cant kill your kids, since they arent technically yours, and its murder.
Not a hard concept to grasp.
>>1001080
I get the concept, but why have kids in the first place if you're just going to kill them?
Its common knowledge that you can have 2 kids in china, they passed the laws originally in the country and i think its at a federal level now to deal with the common too many old people in asia law.
It was good to have 2 kids or more in the country to help with farming so don't talk shit you don't know.

Adam Smith was mostly correct. China has moved far forward since then, but it was as bad as the memes claim.
>>1001175
>China has moved far forward since then.
Has it? What with the garbage oil?
>>1001179
Thats just a pop culture thing, we are making out to be waaaay bigger problem than it really is because it sounds cool as an urban myth.
For example, USA has a bigger problem with led piping for tap water, and UK has a bigger problem with small sewers and wet wipe napkins.
>>997435
I'm goonna need source on that. Checked the wiki and the numbers definitely don't get that high. Is this a new meme?
>>1000404
Zhang Jiao did nothing wrong. All deaths were caused by the heretics of the Han.
>>1001226
the exact numbers are not known, the range is from 20 million to 100 million.
>Jesus' little brother
>called Onii-sama by his followers
The gumption of this motherfucker.
>>997435
>100 milions
Lol you are retards if you believe this bullshit
>>1003302
The best estimate is "just" 30 millions dead.
>>997435
But why the younger brother? Why not older brother, or son, or cousin or nephew?
>>1003523
Older Brother to Younger Brother is one of the five great relationships in Confucian thought. Putting himself as the younger brother of Jesus evinces a higher level of reverence than if he were another relative, and a much different relationship than Father to Son.
>>1003523
>why not older brother
because he was born after Jesus duh
Imagine if he had won.
The Holy Chinese Empire
It has a nice ring to it.
>>1005257
During that era China was sometimes called the Celestial Empire.
>The Holy Celestial Empire
Sounds pretty badass tbqh
>>1005632
Indeed. Chinese Christianity would've become the biggest and baddest religion in the world. Can you imagine the massive wars between Islam and Chinese Christianity? Chinese crusade on Jerusalem. Holy sheet!
>>1005654
Nestorianism did actually manage to reach China by the 7th century but it didn't manage to take hold and disappeared a few centuries later.
>>1005257
>Holy
>Chinese
>Empire
>>1005632
"...it was neither holy, celestial, nor an empire."
>>1005804
yeah I guess.
>>997435
Wiki says 20-30 mil dead
