ITT: opinions held by those educated by american propaganda aka history channel and hollywood movies. This also applies to nordic people who are basically hippies with white skinI'll start>The Church burned witches>Jews were persecuted in the middle ages>Before the French Revolution europe was ruled by tyrants>Social-democracy is the best political ideology>Usury is a good thing>Whatever people do in their room is their own business
The knee-jerk reaction to the word "fascism" as a bad thing."Fascism" isn't even a concept anymore. It's not an ideology, it's not a system of government, it is literally just a synonym of the word bad.>how's the fruit?>it's okay, i think the bananas have gone fascist though
>>18604303Europe was populated by hunter gatherers, then farming spread there from Iraq, where civilization began, and that's the entire story of the prehistoric formation of the European people.Also there's this tree of Indo-European languages that all descend from one we call Proto-Indo-European. No we won't elaborate any further on that.
>>18604303>>Social-democracy is the best political ideologyBut Socdems are fascists doe.....
>>18604309unfortunately the lower the IQ the more people will repeat those thingsThe jews have repeated racism and fascism so much past 16 years people only see the world through these two wordsThankfully asians and russians are not like this, they dont have this paranoid jewish mentality
>>18604303>The Church burned witches The chruch was complacent with conspiracy theorist personalities of the time that claimed witches had sex with satan and that they should be killed which did happen.
>>18604303>Jews weren't persecutedits only been a couple decades since the last major purges and already they're trying to claim none of them never happened
>>18604303>>The Church burned witchesThe Church burned necromancers, who usually were catholic priests/monks, who misapplied exorcism rites in order to conjure/compel a demonic spirit into obedience (instead of banishment). Reading magic grimoires implied having sufficient knowledge of Latin.Also, magic was considered abominable/detestable, because image-fuckery was synonymous with idolatry, heresy and/or paganism.
>>18604800Church killed witches and heretics only if they did'nt repentChurch did'nt even condamn actual witchcraft. Only heretics thought.Actual witchcraft (casting curse, sacrifice children etc) were put in trial by a civilian court, often more severe than the religious one. So witches had two trials : one by the church with a light sentence (maximum was life reclusion in a monastery) if she repented. Death could happen if she did'nt repent or did it again. But there was often a second trial, based on the supersitions you talk about and made the civilian court. They judged over facts, not thought : curses, spells, sacrifices, murders... and it often ended by death . That's what happened, for instance, to Gilles de Rais.
>>18604866>Church did'nt even condamn actual witchcraft. Only heretics thought."Vincent [Speculum doctrinale] treats magic as a crime, and his general position is clear. Magic is a sinful art involving an inappropriate relation to the natural or spiritual world. No explicit allowances are made for natural magic""Although the groups are treated separately, each having its own peculiar superstitious practices, the message in both cases is essentially the same: magic is a criminal and superstitious practice, a species of idolatry, which more often than not involves the threat of demonic temptation and deception.""As Kieckhefer has suggested, the general conclusion one might draw from the antimagic material is that “virtually all types of magic might be demonic.”[24] Like the apothecary’s priest, most no doubt tended toward the antimagic position of the authorities, who were quite unambiguous in their evaluation of all magic as implicitly demonic. Others, like the apothecary’s friend Bonatti, sought out the small gray areas where some legitimacy might be accorded to certain magical practices on philosophical grounds. But in a period where the condemnatory voices were so unambiguous, and in which demons were a credible threat,[25] even the mind of one familiar with the philosophical discussions of natural magic must have been fraught with arguments, impulses, and voices in dramatic conflict with one another."
>>18604303jews are and were considered satanists that worship a devil, so they were burned alive and that was a good thing
>>18604303>american propagandaoh, so like>we saved europe from nazis>we had to nuke japan to prevent further deaths cause they would have refused to surrender>our citizens are better off than all others, everyone else is just jealous of our freedom>south america, middle east, africa, they're all just inherently unstable, probably because of their backwards race and culture, but we help them out of a sense of responsibility>we're a secular nation under god eks dee
