Hey. Human here. You have 10 seconds to philosophically prove that you're all real humans, and not just some fabrications that just really, really seem human.

You really made a Niesztche thread.

there is no difference
What do you know about Baltic states and their history(Latvia, Lithuania aka brother states ^^). The things you like about them, things you hate. Historical bits etc.
>>268760
Basically they were Romuva for ages, then the Polish king asked some Christian orders to crusade them and Prussia was invented, as was the Livonian order which as far as I know was the genesis of Latvia - which is also like half protestant because of Sweden.
Lithuania came to be ruled by the king of Poland as the Polish-Lithuanian commonwealth. But at that point the Lithuanians conquered so many Slavs that the Grand Duchy of Lithuania was basically a proto-Belarus.
Then the Russians ruined everything.
>>268780
To add to that, Lithuania rose mainly due to its good army and ability to incorporate Ruthenian lands. It wasn't even conquest per se since most people happily accepted pagan Lithuanians over Mongol cunts, plus being pagan and less advanced culturally, a lot of them quickly assimilated into Ruthenian framework.
However, it still wasn't just Ruthenian country because Lithuanians also brought a good state centralization framework with themselves. In other words, it was basically symbiosis.

What do you class as an "imaginary reconstruction"? Isn't that performance of Gilgamesh an imaginary reconstruction without the sheet music?

What is the consensus on this guy?
Edgelord and a hilarious failure.
There is no consensus on him. Academically he was an important revolutionary figure and became a folk hero among the underprivileged groups of South America.
>inb4 strawman and cherry picking that he hated gays and black people based on 100% fake quotes, out of context statements and his opinion as a young white in Argentina.
>>268179
>he was an important revolutionary figure
Nah, he was shit. Piggybacked Fidel in the Cuban revolution, did fuck all in Africa and failed even harder in Bolivia.
>became a folk hero
The folk hero status was actually created by Fidel and turned him into a martyr, then American leftists turned him into a pop icon.
Generally speaking though he did basically nothing worth noting and only seemed to be permanently asspained about everything.
This has been my desktop background for about 2 years now and I think it's time for a change. Please post some historical artwork or photos that would look nice as a desktop background. Thank you.

What does /his/ think of what they're saying? Is academia refusing to rewrite history out of ego as new evidence comes out?

ITT: We list valid intellectual contributions of sociology
don't be shy
>>267498
Well pack it up guys, thread's over. We're done here.
As far as I know, the idea of agency originally came from sociology. Other fields have done more interesting things with it, but I guess it's originally theirs.
>>267498
Max Webers sociology of religion.
The theory of Agency thought up as early as Descartes, but only fully realized by Pierre Bordieu.
So this is a bit of a weird subject that's very, very difficult to discussion rationally on almost any part of the Internet, but I think /his/ should be a little less triggered by it.
It's been said that child prostitution was pretty prevalent in Western Europe even up to the 18th Century. Even England didn't take steps to end child prostitution until 1885. But what fueled this and maintained this economy of child sex workers? Were people just more accepting of pedophilia back then or was it just like Internet piracy, impossible to stamp out entirely?

Well for once if you have children working in factories (or on the fields for that matter) why no make them use all parts of their body to make money?
One has to understand that the clear line of child-adult wasn't always as clearly defined, children have been helping their parents where they could since before time, labour laws are a incredebly modern thing.

Can we have a thread about the Indian Caste System?
>>267218
The Outcastes
>>267212
My marxist History prof blamed whites for the skin color Caste system, which predated British India by about 400 years. I posit that it was heavily enforced by the ruling Maharajas which were light skinned turks.
>>267212
Is it true that higher caste members can have sex with lower caste with impunity and that they cannot be refused?
I know they can with the casteless.

What caused the Ottoman Empire to come to an end?
>>267019
Siding with the Germans.
In 1920 they were at the height of power, from Mecca to Budapest. But then in Istanbul some dude said that they should dismantle themselves so they did hahaha. Some say that dude was Hitler himself. I am inclined to disagree
>>267019
It got ripped apart by nationalisms. It's main fault was therefore its failure to provide the various nationalities with a valid alternative to separate nation-states.
Such attempts were made, but it was too little too late. Besides, the state was absolutely unwilling dismantle the privileged position of Muslims, which made the Empire unacceptable to Christians.

No they were a cultural group. An Iberian Celt would not have looked like a Pictish Celt or a Pannonian

How does one practice or adhere to Sufism?
Also
>tfw no qt sufi gf
>>266892
It sounds ebin but, from a westener perspective, it's pretty much like becoming a muslim monk. Not for most people here.
>>266892
Sufism is what we need to promote in order to destroy salafism and wahabbism.
>>266910
If I was going to be any monk, I would be one where I can smoke hash.
