@NaomhDubh @GraniRau Vague posting will not hide the fact, that you have run out of arguments.

The most important thing the Japanese did wasnt killing missionaries, it was making thoroughly sure that those executed would not be worshiped as martyrs. They burned the bodies and threw the ashes into the sea

If you like Japanese culture you have to Acknowledge the reason it exists is because great Daimyo ruthlessly defended it. The vikings duelled, wrote death poems, had magical girls (valkyrie), and the rest… but they didn’t have warning like the prots gave about jesuits

@NaomhDubh @GraniRau Tell me, who defended Europe with their blood from the muslim onslaught for hundreds of years. Was it Christians or pagans?
English
@BoogiepopWrites @GraniRau You're close to getting why your point is moot.
English
@LionelMadrugada @AlgisFarang @FromKulak "Slave morality" is an anachronistic term. The pagans themselves thought themselves as inferior slaves to their gods, which were bound to the indecipherable whims of the divine. And why should a religion, mainly based upon hollow rituals, be seen as superior to genuine faith?
English
@BoogiepopWrites @AlgisFarang @FromKulak Christianity introduced an entirely novel way of thinking to Europe: slave morality, and it has serious negative repercussions to this day. Not to mention all the customs, languages, and laws that changed. For one, spirituality became faith based rather than ritual based.

Christians hate paganism when its their own ancestors beliefs, but when its the Japs its somehow fine.

@NaomhDubh @GraniRau If he was a Christian, he would defend his country against muslims, considering that Christians were the only ones in history to ever put up a successful fight against the mohammedans.
English
@BoogiepopWrites @GraniRau The King of England is a christian yet submits to muslims.

@NaomhDubh @GraniRau Did it though? Japan had more catholic prime ministers than the USA, while the Tokugawa Shogunate doesn´t exist anymore and it also died as a hated, despised and illegitimate entity.
English
@BoogiepopWrites @GraniRau The point of it was to not fuel the catholics rise and it worked. Not to completely damnatio memoriae them.
English
@LionelMadrugada @AlgisFarang @FromKulak Their language, their customs, their laws, their modes of thinking and so on and on.... As I said, the cultural differences between different nations and regions stayed the same, even after all those nations have been christianized. Why do you think this was the case?
English
@BoogiepopWrites @AlgisFarang @FromKulak What was even left of Roman culture after their festivals were banned, their traditional idols torn down, their temples dismantled, and their sacred groves cut? All so that a foreign imported god and religion could take its place and rule every aspect of their lives.
English
@AlgisFarang @FromKulak Evidence for this is how the ancient old cultural differences between northern europe and southern mediterrenean europe stayed the same, even after christianization.
English
@AlgisFarang @FromKulak I disagree with the term destruction. Christian Europe was as authentic germanic as pagan Europe. Christianity baptizes and elevates a culture, but does not destroy it. When Christianity become the state religion of Rome, roman culture was not destroyed but simply baptized.
English
@NaomhDubh @GraniRau I´m not saying that this was good for catholicism. Just that OP was wrong for insinuating that the shogunate was successful in entirely discrediting the missionaries.
English
@BoogiepopWrites @GraniRau No one wins in that case. To the catholics this would be heresy and a defilement of their martyrdom.

@BigDickRaper @akarlin Not a single sortie? Have you ever read a single page of LOTR?
English
@BoogiepopWrites @akarlin The Black gate was inches from Minas Tirith for ages and there wasn't a single sortie out to attack them? Literally like... Ever?
Did the rohirim ever fight anything other than like 3 wolf riding goblins?

This is a Tolkien weakness because OP dragons and the world remaining human-centric violate suspension of disbelief.
Realistically Tolkien's dragons should have been the main characters of Middle-Earth. As apex physical, intellectual, AND magical beings, only the most powerful Maiar should have been able to match them.
Crass as it sounds, The Elder Scrolls is far more realistic, in that the dragons trivially dominated humans through their human underlings (the dragon-priests), and it took a dragon civil war (= elite defections) for humans to break free. GoT is also perfectly realistic, it is more or less exactly how a world in which one faction in a medieval world gains the biological equivalent of bomber aircraft would look like.
LOTR Universe@Lordoftheringsu
Tolkien is superior as always.
English
@BigDickRaper @akarlin No ambition? Morgoth and Sauron literally wanted to conquer and reshape the entire world. It´s the more beastlike creatures which lack ambition though and which are only driven by hunger and base needs. Creatures like Ungolianth or the dragons for example.

Are Americans, who degrade the international rules based order, aware that this is their own order? It´s like a rigged playing field; rigged in favor of the US that is. What does a wise nation prefer? A rules based game, in which you control the rules? Or utter Chaos?

Rupert Lowe MP@RupertLowe10
I've just watched a video from some unwashed left wing influencer claiming that Restore Britain wants to remove a million people over a period of five years. I want to make our response really clear, because this is just blatant misinformation. We'll deport far more than that.

One of the phenomens which will always weird me out, no matter how often I encounter it, is that people actually just go on the internet to tell lies.
Kemonogroyper@KEMOgroyper
Remember when a deeply autistic man obsessed with collecting every virtual experience in existence convinced the entire internet except for me that 'corpos' were going to delete the Nintendo 64 and force you to play Overwatch forever? That was strange.

Women already have enslaved and degraded men through the state. They don´t need to fantasize about this.
maya@jaanamaya
never seen a male version of these, male fantasy of controlling, degrading and enslaving women prevails everywhere
