hold it
dialetics under hegel? Under marx? Okay, that's silly I can agree. But dialectics as a philosophic concept or tool? wrong, it's perfectly valid and unavoidable in all forms of logical thinking
the universe is a giant dialectic, don'tcha know

Watching this hurt, I cannot believe we still celebrate a day where Hitler's teacher ignited the flames of so much pain. White people should be more ashamed of the things their race did many, many, many... many years ago. I'm 1/16 Cherokee so I await your apology.
>>303429
>Plus they're Native North Americans
This is deliciously stupid
>>303429
>I'm 1/16 Cherokee so I await your apology.
So you're white like the rest of us, since I happen to 1/16 cherokee as well.
Also CC didn't even make it to mainland North America, nor was he the first European to the new world.
So im not entirely sure why the holiday is celebrated, or why he's blamed for certain genocides he did not do.
You mean the same way African-Americans await an apology from the Cherokee for the slavery they practiced, for their alliance with the Confederacy during the Civil War, and for adding insult to injury by removing from membership the Freedmen ancestors they had adopted in via treaty?
tell me about the kurds /his/
>>303415
Well, they are a group of peoples speaking a group of Iranian languages who live primarily in Turkey, Syria, Iraq and Iran, and who aren't welcome in any of those states.
Hence, they want to have a state for themselves in that area, which the surrounding states won't allow because muh territorial superiority.
They especially don't get along well with Turks, not even in Germany.
>>303415
>migrate out of Iran into the future Arab world
>displace Assyrians from their homelands, inhabit them as their own
>work in service of various empires
>fellow nomadic group enters area and dominates politics :D:D
>work in service of this group for a long time
few hundred years later
>nomadic group has been a state for awhile (Turkey)
>Turkey hires Kurds to harass and eliminate Armenians as punishment for Armenian support of Russian invaders
>Kurds do it (absolute madman)
A few decades after the Armenian Genocide:
>Kurds get buttmad that they aren't successful as Arabs or Turks
>"better start some wars!!!111! :D
>Kurds get their shit rekt
>Saddam Hussein invades Kuwait, angering his former masters in Washington
>Kurds allow US to stage invasion of Iraq from their land
And that's how Kurds went from nomadic mercenaries that stole Assyrian land and partly conducted the Armenian Genocide, to an oppressed people that need your political support or else they'll be holocausted by ISIS (even though they have plenty of weapons and are completely free to work with the SAA and Iraqi Army against ISIS)

Does it upset you when people get things wrong?

Why did culture flourish during Weimar republic?

Where is the Marx of the sexual economy? Why is it assumed that wealth equality automatically equals eqaulity in every sphere when ugly males like me will get no females, who will all go to Chad when they(the females) are in their attractiveness prime?
Also women don't have to give sex to beta men but men pay most of the taxes which mostly goes to women. Explain this shit pls.

Wait, if Byzantine was Roman, were the successor states the Roman Empire too?
>>303048
They all claimd to be the legitimate Roman Empire, the names on the map, like Byzantium, are names we made up for them later.
How come some societies just couldn't into metalworking? It's not like the land mass of the USA is lacking in metals. inb4 jared diamond
>>302940
What's more surprising is that mesoamerica, the andine area and even central america (the less developed of the three) had metalworking. And a pretty nice one, actually.
But they just used it to make jewelry and ornaments of gold, silver, copper. I think that the andines actually even had bronze. Yet they all used stone weapons.
>>302981
Is there a lot of tin in the Americas?
>>302940
The Hopewell and the Adena cultures were fine craftsmen of ores and metals before they faded into history. It was probably a very niche profession within those societies until they collapsed. Knowledge of how to gather, obtain, and create metals may have been lost during the collapse of those cultures.

What are Albanians - illyrians; thracians; dacians ?
Where did they come from?
Why is their language so unique?
first google, then ask (sorry!)
thracians. the larger "family" that dacians where a part too. so, today, they are more related to romanians then with any other populations in the area, that came under slavic influence (see macedonians for example). hope that was helpfull. for more info https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Albanians
>tfw albanian
>tfw hitler thought you were based
feels good man
>>302790
Geographically we can assume theyre illyrians AFAIK, and since their language is a special snowflake I'm guessing its a Thracian language. Truly the Albanians are the only natives to the balkans to survive.
They're mostly known for being thieves, both historically and contemporarely.
What social an cultural effect did ottoman rule have on the balkans aside from the introduction of islam ?
lots of alcohol
didnt develop national pride until later
poverty
>>302654
What do you mean with alcohol I'm sure christian balkan people had alcohol before the ottomans .
>>302618
Entire Europe had printing presses and an increasingly literate and educated population from the 15th century onwards: Renaissance, Enlightenment, Age of Reason.
The Ottoman empire banned the printing press.
By the 19th century, the Swedish peasant population was over 80% literate, the Balkan one were still probably 99% illiterate.

This isn't a philosopher. This is just a pseudo-intellectual rambling at a camera. Shameful that real modern philosophers like Elliot Hulse get no mention, yet this guy is known throughout the board.
