Have memes gone too far?

only protestants call catholics papist

>The term was also common in use in the Eastern Orthodox Church in the 19th century.[4]
>The term is still sometimes used today,[12][13] although much less often than in earlier centuries.
Hmmm...

>19th century

so clearly a protestant influence since Orthodoxy existed far longer and never used that term

>only protestants call catholics papist
Hmmm...

screen forgets to mention they sold leftovers as slaves to turks

PAY DEBT

Andronikos literally did nothing wrong.

venetians were scum
they regularly caused trouble by murdering other latins (mainly genoans) to get rid off competition

>kill all Catholics
>waah why the crusaders don't help us


>The massacre further worsened the image of the Byzantines in the West, and although regular trade agreements were soon resumed between Byzantium and Latin states, the underlying hostility would remain, leading to a spiraling chain of hostilities: a Norman expedition under William II of Sicily in 1185 sacked Thessalonica, the Empire's second largest city, and the German emperors Frederick Barbarossa and Henry VI both threatened to attack Constantinople.


Crusaders did nothing wrong. Fuck these Greek fags.

>a Norman expedition under William II of Sicily in 1185 sacked Thessalonica, the Empire's second largest city, and the German emperors Frederick Barbarossa and Henry VI both threatened to attack Constantinople.
The swarthy meds fear the Germanic warrior

So lets me get this straight.
>1. Byzantine emperor sells some trade privileges to Venetians
>2. Venetians are becoming too successful and outperform Byzantines in trade
>3. Emperor gets mad, orders massacre of Latins and sells leftovers to Turks as slaves.
>4. Some time later Venetians orchestrate sack of Constantinople
And im supposed to believe that the Venetians are bad guys here?

MOSSACK! DISHA, DISHA.

Fpbp
C*tholics deserve worse.

>1. C*tholics spit in the face of God every day by worshipping a mortal in Rome
>2. Upstanding Christians do something about this blasphemy
>3. Retard in the 21st century takes the side of paganism
Venetians deserved worse, and they got it when it backfired in their face a few years down the track.

DO IT AGAIN DONDOLO!

Kill yourself disgusting idiot.

20 years later the Latins from Venetia unleashed the G*rmanic savage beasts on them. Their "empire" was reduced to dust and their women became the harem toys of Brown Turks.

Oh filthy Gayreeks, never mess again with the Latin masterrace or we will unleash our G*rmanic bulldogs on you again.

>venetians had to employ germanic crusaders

Don't make me laugh

So like some immigrants came and took all the damn jobs and became rich and preyed on the poor people who already lived there?
Then the poor people who lived there flipped out on the immigrants who didn't care about them and just wanted to make money?
Hmm...

Shut up or we will unleash the G*rmanic beasts on you Polak subhuman as well.

im german who fucks med women on daily basis

they just have enough money to send bunch of poor fools to die for them, probably rape nordic widows afterwards

>regular jewish pogroms all around Europe
>burning of heretics
>mass executions and ethnic cleansing in Occitania
>genocidal Northen Crusades enslaving entire countries
>genocidal Crusaders in the east
Perfectly normal, nothing to see here.
>an outraged mob killed a bunch of overreaching traders
Outrageous! Greeks had it comming!

>"The predominance of the Italian merchants caused economic and social upheaval in Byzantium: it accelerated the decline of the independent native merchants in favour of big exporters, who became tied to the landed aristocracy, who in turn increasingly amassed large estates. Together with the perceived arrogance of the Italians, it fueled popular resentment amongst the middle and lower classes both in the countryside and in the cities."
>"The religious differences between the two sides, who viewed each other as schismatics, further exacerbated the problem. The Italians proved uncontrollable by imperial authority: in 1162, for instance, the Pisans together with a few Venetians raided the Genoese quarter in Constantinople, causing much damage. Emperor Manuel subsequently expelled most of the Genoese and Pisans from the city, thus giving the Venetians a free hand for several years."
>"In early 1171, however, when the Venetians attacked and largely destroyed the Genoese quarter in Constantinople, the Emperor retaliated by ordering the mass arrest of all Venetians throughout the Empire and the confiscation of their property.there were also mass rapesand burning houses."
Venetian trader scum unironically deserved worse.

Kek honestly what is wrong with people, killing each other over religious and ethnic differences seems way too common in history

The massacare was just banter, they didn't have to chimp out.

>Byzantine emperor sells some trade privileges to Venetians
They were actually a gift to the Venetians who had defended Durazzo from the Norman's for the Byzantines
