Old! The UK no longer has aircraft carriers!

I just looked this "feud" up and it's pretty interesting http://www.sabotagetimes.com/people/king-robbo-exclusive-interview-my-graffiti-war-with-banksy/ It IS pretty bizarre how councils will spend money repainting Banksy's stuff when it gets "vandalised"

We must use our anime, which is positive in spirit, to overcome our liberalism, which is negative.

Crasscrab posted:Drawings by Friedrich Engels. The first one is a sketch of a Die Freien meeting and the last two are of Max Stirner, contemporary German philosopher and member of Die Freien, of which both Engels and Marx were also part of. My favorite thing is the little squirrel looking thingy in the upper left of the first picture. Engels doodled squirrels! Thought it was Hark, a Vagrant

Tiler Kiwi posted:which had suffered such extensive purges that the only qualification that its officers had was that they were loyal to Stalin Such vile lies! The indefatiguable Red Army was gloriously led by heroes like Grigory Kulik: quote:tendency to condemn technological advancements as "bourgeois sabotage" quote:campaign to develop the Red Army's mechanized forces ... Kulik successfully argued against the change, suggesting in a letter to Stalin that such attitudes showed an unhealthy ideological sympathy with the "degenerate fascist ideology" quote:He also disparaged using minefields as a defensive measure, considering it at odds with a properly aggressive strategy and calling it "a weapon of the weak." quote:Kulik similarly scorned the German issuance of the MP-40 submachine gun to their shock troops as a "bourgeois fascist affectation", stating that it encouraged inaccuracy and excessive ammo consumption among the rank and file. He forbade issuance of the PPD-40 to his units quote:presided over heavy Soviet defeats that resulted in the city of Leningrad being surrounded quote:a bizarre personal command motto he dubbed "Jail or Medal"; those under his command were either showered with (usually unearned) awards and decorations if he favored them, or simply arrested and sent to the Gulag He was a master of Red Army strategy and tactics, his leadership an inspiration to all.

I disagree, I think it is possible to see people as evil without dehumanising them. Swiss political cartoons: http://www.geschichteinchronologie.ch/eu/ch/Palomino1997_handelsbeziehungen-der-Schweiz-1933-1945.htm hitler: here in this box sits a pretty evil man, as long as i stay here he won't do anything, but if i go away he will eat all of you hitler: so it was not meant to be (when he gets off the box) bottom: fear mongering and its unexpected consequences (I have no idea who the guy in the box is) "Quiet funeral" Refers to Hitler's nationalisation of foreign investments ("3 milliard (billion) Swiss Francs") sometimes seen as the beginning of his "raubwirtschaft" which continued with the enslavement and looting of the countries Germany conquered Enjoy fucked around with this message at 08:33 on Sep 29, 2012 |

Some of those seem like good arguments for intervention in the sex market so idgi?

I heard that the centralisation and stability of the Church are what allowed Europe to claw back again after the decentralisation and destabilisation of the collapse of the Roman empire. Starting with the Scholasticism movement in the monasteries.

FuzzyBuddha posted:Welcome to the University of Alaska Fairbanks Gruening Building. The main floor stairs exited near an entrance to the building and have (had? Been a while since I was in there...) a waist high concrete slab so in the event of a riot, security could fire out the door while having some protection... Reminds me of a building I walked past occasionally when I was at university in Cardiff: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Crown_Buildings,_Cathays_Park quote:The Encyclopedia of Wales describes CP2, completed in 1979, as conveying an impression of "bureaucracy under siege".[2] These pictures don't really do justice to how ugly it is. It's right in the middle of a beautiful river-front park surrounded by museums, university buildings and churches. Walking down the street alongside it, you can't see any human activity, just angular concrete slabs, pillars and dark windows. I thought it was a military bunker or warehouse the first time I walked past it.
