>>18492167You'll probably be ok>>18492164You're fucked
>>18492170What if you're Latinx?
>be moslem>oppressed and impoverished>be Christian>oppressed and impoverished, state sanctioned kidnappings>be Jew>live in your own little Jewish paradise enclave surrounded by moslem servants and Christian slavesWhy are modern moselsm so obsessed with this ZOG shithole again?
>>18492123That's not the Achaemenids or Mughals.
they committed several genocides and kidnapped millions of slaves out of central Africa
>>18492417based
How? Mistreatment of ethnic and religious minorities was one of the things that led to its collapse.
>>18492164there is an unironic total shiite death fatwa from ebu suud, it even forces other people like the shafiis to denounce the shiites as infidels lest they too be executed. This is because the shiites with shah ismail were subversives who tried to destroy the ottomans with Anatolian revolts. Same shitback in the day that makes people go ''see islamic apostasy law is harsh''>infidels are tolerated>infidels ''convert'' and then convert back at first opportunity and revolt>total subversive death is enacted by divinely guided willThere were known munafik(crypto infidel) in the capital at the time of the prophet, completely untouched, because they were infidels to themselves instead trying to overthrow the prophet.Just as there were jews in the Ottoman Empire that didn't actively try to subvert the empire and destroy it from within (intentionally at least) while shiites were revolting for a hundred years and enshittifying anatolia which was already reeling from reduced trade on the Silk Road
>>18492179>be Jew>live in your own little Jewish paradise enclave surrounded by moslem servants and Christian slavesJews were like 5% of the population of modern day Israel during Ottoman period>>18492417It didn’t happen, unless you mean the anti-terrorism campaigns in WW1 when terrorist organizations wanted to implement the treaty of Sevres and partition Turkey with western help>>18492945>Mistreatment of ethnic and religious minorities was one of the things that led to its collapse.Its the opposite, there would be noone to chimp out if ottomans had just killed all balkanoids and replaced them with turkic settlers like spaniards did to native americans
>>18493080That's not very tolerant
>>18493080don't mistreat them, it was a legitimate race war the terrorists started and then lost, they admit so in their books
>>18493089Ottoman tolerance and kindness was repaid by genociding all balkan turks so next time we'll be less tolerant
>>18492123If you have to keep pointing it out without any reason, then it probably wasnt
>>18493080>Its the opposite, there would be noone to chimp out if ottomans had just killed all balkanoids and replaced them with turkic settlers like spaniards did to native americansAnd then one day, for no reason at all, the Arabs decided to revolt.
>>18492123It wold still be around today had they earlier committed themselves to full scale cultural genocide.
>>18493299A lot of arabs fought for the ottomans, the vast majority of arabs actually The whole stab in the back myth was propagated by ataturk who was a donmeh jewish zionist to fuel anti-arab sentiment
>>18492179Jews and christians were allowed to have their own schools and courts. They only paid more taxes and once a year the state would take a thousand boys from the christian villages in the balkans to train them to become administrators or the elite infantry. Compared to contemporary empires like the soanish one that is very tolerant.>>18493299It was only the sharif of hijaz (mecca, medina and surroundings) that rebelled. Most arabs were loyal to the empire.
Funny how balkaners complain about the ottomans being the most brutal empire ever etc when all of them stll speak their language and have their culture alive and well. And then they cope by saying they successfully resisted.They also all think every other balkan nation got dogwalked but theirs was strong and they have some national hero known for his resistance. Skanderbeg, Vlad (all got their asses beat).Glad im not from there or turkey
>>18494174Until the 19th century, the Ottomans were not necessarily tolerant, but more nonchalant. As long as taxes were paid, loyalty was declared, and troops were sent when needed, they mostly left local populations and matters alone. In the 19th century, when new reforms started to became more centralized and Turkish oriented, local governors and others officials were replaced with Turkish or fully loyal officials Turkish was promoted as the official language. This led to revolts even in usually loyal regions such as Bosnia.
>>18492123>Gets stabbed in the back by it's own subjects, some who even had the same religion , for the slight chance of National freedom>The main ethnic group, the Turks, didn't benefit from it either unless they personally knew the sultan and the best thing to ever happen to the Turkish people was over throwing the empire and creating the Republic Yeah no. It wasn't cartoonishly cruel but let's not glaze it.
>>18494174Vlad is based regardless.
>>18492123I always found it funny how this empire was demographically half Arab but it was ran by Muslim Europeans and Caucasians besides Turks (most of whom were based in Anatolia and were treated as irrelevant hillbillies) who treated them like scum. Besides the ulama, the Arabs had no say in the empire, and even had foreigners like Georgians or Albanians ruled them in their native lands in Iraq and Egypt. Bosniaks even paid lots of money to import brides from Austro-Hungarian Bosnia after they fled to the Levant following the 1878 annexation since they refused to marry local Arabs KEKI wonder how long it would've taken for Islam to be stripped of its Arab character if the Ottomans stuck around. They already did a good job annihilating the Wahhabis.
>>18492123That's not Kara-Khitai
>>18494174Balkaners didn't maintain their culture because of Turks but in spite of them. And maintain is a generous word seeing how many obvious Turkish leftovers exist and how many Turkified balkaners were sent to Anatolia.
>>18493476There’s rarely such a thing as a benevolent occupation or foreign rule. Even when the rulers came from a similar culture, many Arabs, like other subjugated peoples still saw them as occupiers.
>>18494460If you think balkaners kept their culture by resisting for centuries i have a beautiful beachfront property in Paris to sell you
>>18493103The Turks had no right to rule over Christians. All Muslims should be deported from Europe and that includes Anatolia.
>>18494791t. posted from a favela in rio
>>18494858Didnt realize Brazilians were so based
>>18492123>tolerant le good
>>18493103>Ottoman tolerance and kindness Yeah, Christians were overjoyed with extorting taxation and graping>next time we'll be less tolerantuntil the locals start ungovernable.exe
>>18494787Why are you putting words in my mouth? The Ottomans didn't directly force their culture to Balkaners but did apply laws to keep most of them poorly educated with reduced upward mobility.
>>18495997>until the localsWe'll just kill the christrats and take their land, its a strategy they are very familiar with. The ottomans were doomed when they tried to civilize and govern the balkanoids instead of just replacing them with turkic bvlls like what seljuks did in Anatolia.
>>18496386Wasn't Western Anatolia and Pontus still around half Christian before WW1?
>>18492123>degenerate slave empire ruled by perverts that jerk it to femboysI guess that's pretty tolerant, yeah.
