Apraxin posted:eh, in the same way nagorno-karabakh’s a part of azerbaijan. they’re defacto independent, it’s just not formally recognized The situation is too complex to explain to any non-Somali, but it’s illegal under the African Union charter to recognize somaliland, and it’s 40% unionist, so recognition would cause a second civil war in somaliland. needless to say, don’t think qalaadis should opine on Somalia.

Doc Hawkins posted:the class of your parents and childhood. some people "make good," ie become professionals, landlords, and/or business owners when their parents were not, despite retaining or even cultivating working class shibboleths. presumably the same thing can happen in the other direction. Class isn’t economic in Britain, it’s social. You can be a working class billionaire, or an nob who doesn’t have a cent to their name.

every time I read t-mans posts I shotgun a load of Prozac straight down my throat . im now on antipsychotics. i always wondered what the kind of “bad-post ” style of humor was all about; i think it’s the unconscious leaking in to the conscious, what jungian theory considered to be the cause of schizophrenic and schizotypal syptoms. i would advise all people who “get” t-man to be careful because that likely means you have a predisposition to a mental illness. peace.

The Ultimate Doge posted:Saying orcs are racist is correct (they very obviously represent our old impressions of humans from band and chiefdom societies, or sometimes of humans with lower socioeconomic status like soccer hooligans and african americans) but also counter-productive. Fantasy stuff is inherently fascist but it allows the fascism present in every person to be indulged in a harmless way without directing it to political ends. When you start forcing people to confront it and making it an open shameful issue instead of something politely ignored, you get rid of that release valve orcs are classist, not racist. Mordor and the Orcs represent the “New Industrilized England” and the factory working class, while the shire represents the old England of roast beef and rural living. The real irony in all of this is that tolkein conceived of the orcs as the corrupted industrial working class who were violently throwing the world out of balance with nature, unlike the "good" rural working class of happy-go-lucky peasants represented by the hobbits. This is a super british trope, but it's more Blake's "dark satanic Mills" than Kipling's "Gunga Din" PawParole has issued a correction as of 22:08 on May 2, 2020 |

Trabisnikof posted:orcs aren't racist, they can't be racist due to the power balance between them and humans orcs can’t be racist because they’re a different species, and race is always pseudoscientific nonsense, whether it’s the aryan race or the “negro” race or the British claims that the Irish were a variety of bog dwelling gorilla. The only differation in human beings is like coloration and facial feature shape. The Orcs are literally a loving different species. Of course they act different, just like a zebra doesn’t act like a wolf!

Varinn posted:a huge part of colonialist-era scientific racism was classifying people as other species of human, to explain why they were just naturally predisposed to rape and violence, and had to be culled. “Orcs are savage raiders and pillagers with stooped postures, low foreheads, and pig-like faces with prominent lower canines that resemble a boar’s tusks.” didn’t know Africans looked like that. I would absolutely love to have boar tusks tbh.

like outside of Varg, literally no far-righter compares any human to Orcs. There is literally no human culture on earth that’s like orcs. It sounds like someone just watched Bright on Netflix and went : "Oh I get it now! Orcs are brown people and elves are asians. It again falls on me, a vegan with an ironic mustache who grew up in a gated community, to save the minorities from this oppression."

Crane Fist posted:The EIC absolutely did not have lower levels of technology than the people they were raiding, the only real driver behind their success was "better guns, better at firing guns" They couldn’t even get the Mughals to give them a Firman of trade in the 1740’s, and they imported literally billions of everything from India , from advanced steel to textiles.

The conflicts heavily affected major cities like Mumbai, Madras, Kolkata and Chittagong, which resulted the intervention of Emperor Aurangzeb, who seized all the factories of the company and arrested members of the British Army, while the company forces commanded by Sir Josiah Child, Bt captured further Mughal trading ships and set the houses on fire of many faujdars. Ultimately the British East India Company was defeated by the army of the Mughal Empire and the company was fined 150.000 rupees (roughly equivalent to today's $4.4 million). The company's apology was accepted and the old firman was granted by Emperor Aurangzeb.
