My uncle told me that in 1979, when he was 17, he applied to join the British army and after the medical he was told if he signed he would be sent to Northern Ireland so he told them to fuck off. I called his bluff and said that anybody in the British army from the ages of 16 to 18 could not be sent to a war zone however he argues that it was different in 1979 and that you could be sent to fight if you were 17. I have looked to try find evidence to back up my point but I can't find anything relating to that year. Help /his/
>implying the Anglos give a fuck about rules
OI LAD YOU'RE GOING OFF TO NORTHERN IRELAND LADDIE OL BOI
There seems to be no good reason to outright contradict his version of events, even if you're right and you have no way of knowing.

what did he imply by this?
Geographical, not geopolitical

doesnt matter

I guess Austria-Hungary wasn't even that.
What does /his think of Nietzsche?
I think he was an autistic smug philosopher who only cared for himself
>what does /his/ think of Nietzche
We've had Nietzche threads every few days for the past 6 months, I would expect you to know by now
>>1111373
Hugs ponies.
Why should he give a shit about anyone else?
Should President Ford have pardoned Richard Nixon?
If Nixon didn't think he'd be pardoned Ford wouldn't have been president in the first place
Would the country be better off with a former president in prison? I can see arguments either way.

>you will never see him perform live
> Once the solar, golden, sacred regality of the mythical first age fell, power devolved upon a lunar, silver, feminized priestly caste before an unconsecrated warrior nobility struggled against it, announcing the Bronze Age. Then power shifts to the mercantile caste, represented by the Italian comune, Freemasonry, the Jewish financial oligarchy of the Renaissance, and New World American Judeo-Protestant plutocracy. By the beginning of the twentieth century, organized labour and Marxist-Trotskyite subverters sought to transfer power to the last caste of slaves or sudras, or the consumer-pariah, reducing all values to matter, machines, dysgenic egalitarianism and the reign of abstract quantity.
Is Evola right or is this highly simplified version of history?
>highly simplified version of history?
Yes.
He's right.

You have a 12yo brother and you want to get him into history. How would you describe the Renaissance and Humanism to him in, let's say, two paragraphs, without making it an absolute borefest? How can you explain to a kid things lke the revival of interest towards platonism, the classical canon of beauty, hermeticism or mention great people like Rabelais, Copernicus, Ficino, Francis Bacon, Giordano Bruno, Michelangelo, DaVinci without making it an absolute borefest? I
know people like us had immense curiosity and devoured a lot of information but times change and now they might not have enough time or attention for that. How would you guys explain this period?
>>1111039
>trying to get your brother into your hobby.
lol he's gonna hate you
find cool movies or games or comics related to *historical period* and let them act as a gateway
>>1111039
Honestly? Mass media, even if it's not historically accurate. The Borgias, Assassin's Creed, etc.
Nobody started liking history by reading a textbook. Age of Empires, Civ or Braveheart got you to start reading kiddie books, which got you into reading a textbook. Mass Media may not be historically accurate, but it helps cultivate an early and healthy interest in history. If he likes it he'll keep liking history long after he knows what's wrong with whatever entry level media got him into it.
How did the European countries deal with decline from superpower status and loss of empire?
How did it affect their politics and national identity?

IJA in the Russo-Japanese war is 100% would-fight-for, but IJA WWII-era is literally baby rapist-tier. There's also this which is pretty bad:

Imagine that you must fight for French in WWI or for Soviets in WWII. What war would you choose?
>>1110816
I imagine if you're able to survive the first half of the war as a soviet, the latter half was much more exciting with all the rape and looting they did in their way to berlin.
>>1110816
Soviets in WWII, of course. WWII (for the Soviets) was about survival of their people, WWI was about satisfying the interests of the Anglo.

>WWII (for the Soviets) was about satisfying the interests of the Jew, WWI was about satisfying the interests of the Anglo.

Hey /his/,
Why is this guy so hated by modern historians?
Also has anyone written a decent concise history of the United States?
I want a primer before branching out to other topics. At this point I have only read 1776 and John Adams which were both kind of pop history.
I did read one concise history of the American Revolution that was pretty okay but I want a more broad overview.
>>1110725
Because of the Trail of Tears. If you get a modern historian worth their salt then they'd include putting money into Wildcat banks and causing the Panic of 1837 and that he increased the powers of the presidency by ignoring the Supreme Courts and Congress.
He was however the first people's president and was elected by all white males, they didn't need property to vote in this election.
>Why is this guy so hated by modern historians?
He isn't. He tends to be rated highly even by modern scholars.
>>1110825
They'd also mention the destruction of the second bank of the United States. And the Spoils System.
I heard that Muslims stole this symbol from Byzantine Empire. Is it true? Why would they do that? What is original meaning of crescent and moon?
It's Parthian originally. Beyond that, I don't know. Probably some near east moon fetish bullshit.
Blame the Ottomans for popularizing it. Islam doesn't have a symbol.
>>1110700
>islam doesn't have a symbol
There are signs that clearly point out where it's been.

Art is the physical manifestation of aesthetics brought into the world by skill of craft.
Is this the most solid definition?

No, that would be just a shallow aesthetic then
