England is a shit hole and always has been

If they feel a need to say they are a history nerd, they probably aren't

This and it goes for everything.

STFU mutt !

>be american
>start the seven years war
>closest thing we can remember about it is when the french fought the indians
feels good

>be american
>be too stupid to understand what the french and indian war was
It was the war where the colonies fought the french and most of the native population you fucking trog

Imagine my rage when someone says they like ancient greek history, and then they start talking about the hebrew mythology worshipping purple stain on the map that was the byzantine "roman" empire.

feels good

>meet someone new
>oh you also like history? which part?
>WW2
This makes me rage so hard

"History" classes are a fucking joke these days.

Anytime I meet a girl who "likes history" she's always bluepilled as fuck.

Makes sense, if your friend is an Indian or something.

>Hitler was the bad guy during World War II
They are half right.

If you don't agree with half of those, then I'm afraid you're the bluepilled one.

These are all either true or simplistic reductions of the truth though

THough the rest are pretty dumb

>Hitler was the bad guy during World War II
Ye

>Hitler was the bad guy during World War II
True?
>The Crusades was Christians slaughtering innocent Muslims
That was part of it, do you disagree?
>Islam was spread by peaceful missionaries
True for some regions such as Indonesia and others, for other it was done through violence.
>Race was invented in the 1800s
I mean, people always knew that there were differences but they're talking about this: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Johann_Friedrich_Blumenbach
>Saddam Hussein did 9/11
I might believe that someone actually made this claim if you're American.
>FDR "saved" the economy by taking away our gold
I don't know enough to comment on this
>Blacks invented peanut butter, gas mask, traffic light, and blood plasma
99% sure this conversation never took place and you just found it on some ironic "we wuzz" page.
>Jesus never existed
:^)
>Einstein invented the atomic bomb
Stupid belief.
>Columbus was responsible for killing millions of Native Americans
Depends how you assign responsibility.
>Native Americans were great environmentalists
Half truth.
>White settlers destroyed the buffalo
D-didn't they?....
>Prohibition "didn't work"
It didn't unless you got a wierd definition of the word "work".
>Richard Nixon expanded the Vietnam War
Nixon hate is so common that I can't fault people for this one.
>The Founding Fathers believed in "separation of church and state"
I don't know enough to comment on this.
>The Rosenbergs were innocent
I don't know about this either.
>The 1950s were dull and boring
Subjective.
>Muslim terrorists hate us because we support Israel
That's a factor, others include propping up regimes that repress them, aswell as indiscriminate bombing.
>Income tax is necessary to have a functioning society
Yap.

>implying hitler wasn’t the bad guy during ww2
>reeeee black people never invented anything it was all me the mighty whitey
>prohibition was a success
>what invasion of Cambodia Nixon dindu nuffin
>muh racial IQ disparity just look at these ASVAB scores, which environment would have no impact on because clearly questions about electrical and mechanical engineering measure intelligence and not achievement
Ban all baitposters.

>new coworker mentions she likes history and thinks wars are fascinating
>thinks it’s especially interesting how there hasn’t been a war since WW2 and how there were a hundred years of peace before WW1

uhhhhh

>closest thing we can remember about it is when the french fought the indians
Self-fulfilling post

it's fine if she is hot

>omg im such a history nerd
>did you know the Mongols were beaten by stone walls?
>lmao XDDD

>did you know Islam is peaceful? I watched BBC dcumentary about it XDD

>Says he loves WW2
>DUDE, GERMANY WOULD HAVE EASILY CRUSHED BRITAIN IN NORTH AFRICA IF THEY DIDN'T INVADE THE USSR FIRST AND DEPLOYED AN EXTRA 1 MILLION MEN, THEY ALSO COULD'VE....

>a hundred years of peace before WW1
>the nation state of Germany literally fought to exist less than 50 years before ww1
wew, that's quite a hot take

This is easily the worst one

>be George Washington
>start Seven Years War
>resultant taxes to pay for it raise American pro-independence sentiment
>fight revolution
>remove tea
ALL ACCORDING TO KEIKAKU

>Hitler was the bad guy during World War II
This one's true tho.
>Columbus was responsible for killing millions of Native Americans
Depends how vaguely you define responsibility, and even if it's that vague, Isabella seems more logical
>Prohibition "didn't work"
It didn't.
>The Founding Fathers believed in "separation of church and state"
Jefferson literally coined the phrase
>Muslim terrorists hate us because we support Israel
If the US didn't poke shit in their back yard, they literally would have no reason to go after the US, they'd just keep blowing up other muslims in said back yard.

Well technically islam was spread through peaceful means.
Aside from Indonesia, eastern and western africaa dn central asia most conversions went like this.
>muslims conquer place
>locals either convert or pay more taxes
>some muslims orders start preaching islam and together with lesser taxes locals convert

The muslims come in and convert everyone by the sword is a retarded meme.
Places like egypt and persia for example took centuries to be majority because it was a slow and mostly peaceful process.

Not that guy, but prohibition did work, it DRASTICALLY reduced alcohol consumption.

>White settlers destroyed the buffalo
One of the theories I've read was that Buffalo populations were fairly small in precolombian times, but they exploded once the postcolombian plagues wiped out the native populations that kept the buffalo population in check.

So while that user is still retarded, he's (hopefully) referring to the fact that the absurdly large buffalo herds famous in the Old West were likely themselves an "unnatural" unsustainable event.

There's a similar theory for Passenger Pigeons, whose populations seem to have been kept in check until the postcolombian period.

>start seven years war
Washington wasn't the one who washed his hands in Jumonville's brains

>anything but the Byzantine Empire is relevant
Roachposter pls.

...

People who discuss racial differences in intelligence are almost always talking about the differences in IQ scores, which measure intelligence, rather than ASVAB scores, which measure knowledge.

Most people don't know what an ASVAB is.

>prohibition did work
>drastically reduced alcohol consumption
>prohibition-was-a-success
>reduced alcohol consumption

...

>invade christian lands for centuries
>whine when ass gets kicked by Charles Martel and later crusades

literally how were crusaders in the wrong other than the shit they did to Byzantium.

The purpose of prohibition was not to reduce alcohol consumption. It was supposed to be a golden age of productivity and it failed miserably . Instead, it added to the problems it was intended to solve and
supplanted other ways of addressing problems. The only beneficiaries of Prohibition were bootleggers, crime bosses,
and the forces of big government.

>The purpose of prohibition was not to reduce alcohol consumption.
Stopped reading there. Yes that was literally the goal, it was pushed by feminist temperance leagues butthurt that their husbands were drinking too much.

That b stands for butthurt right?

T.Turkroach

You’re not fooling anyone with your anti Byzantium forced meme

This will never not make me mad.

This

England is irelevant to history.
Your friend was right.

Bait

truth ;^)
