This is a good way to get some massive protests and hopefully a general strike. Look back at the Vietnam war protests, we had entire drafted units refuse to go.

I don’t think they lost so much as immigrated to the Americas and help create the us intelligence agencies and helm the U.N. The USA has always been Nazis. This is the 4th Reich.

Gentlemen, there is no brigading in the war room!

Yeah, thanks for getting my main point, I didn’t mean to imply he was an actual communist, just that he was a useful boogeyman for the West, until he wasn’t useful anymore.

Sorry for the shitpost reply, but, lol no shit.

Edit: just wait till you find out about what Gaddafi actually did and how the USG used him as a virtual supervillain to fund our adventures in the Levant. The USG and their mouthpieces always lie.

Basilla Irene is my favorite part of this. Einhard made up some shit about Charlemagne visiting Constantinople because Irene asked him to marry her. The letters probably did not exist and Charlemagne certainly didn’t travel that far east. Irene ended up being couped by her nephews (or cousins, I’m still away from my library) to restore a man on the Roman throne. Just around that time, because the pope saw the Roman throne as technically vacant, and his position as weak in relation to the surrounding Italian principalities,he in invited Charlemagne to Rome under false pretenses and tricked him into a ceremony where he was crowned Holy Roman Emperor. This didn’t change relations with the east however, the Ottomans becoming the sultan of Rum did that. Most of the “lost” knowledge came frome raids and trade with the Muslim world, notibly the reconquesta in Iberia (see the La Chanson de Roland for more).

Sorry, but you don’t deescalate a dangerous situation with a martial art. Real life isn’t a movie. You deescalate through conversation.Yet, some people are committed to a violent resolution, and in that case, there are no magic words, or chi, or anything else that will deescalate. You need to be ready to draw your weapon and kill, because they are. If that is not the case, then you don’t need a martial art anyway. Even Marx carried a pistol because he understood that.

This is extremely frustrating because there are real conspiracies that the “conspiracy theories” distract from. Just like you were saying, most of it is well documented, probably because the US built its intelligence agencies using Nazi intelligence officers.

A gun.
