>>540928970You literally just made the same thread this morning
>>540929242he wants to talk about it, what the fuck do you care?
>>540928970Reminder that every Crusade the English took part in was successful. Reminder that colonising and conquering the world and forming the British Empire was often framed and sold to the adventurous men and boys as England's Protestant Crusade, and for many of the men involved it truly was about spreading the light of Christ to the Godless corners of the world. So when people tell you the Crusades were usually failures, especially when they say it in English; be sure to laugh at them. For our people it was traveling to exotic lands, winning battles while ridiculously outnumbered, securing advantageous treaties and then returning home laden with treasure. Americans, Canadians, Australians and the like should regard the Crusades just as Britons do; total victory.
>>540928970Ignore any opinion about the crusades that doesn't acknowledge the Eastern Roman Empire.
>>540928970>"The Crusades were based. The Christians are justified and Saladin is a maurauding Islamic Rapist."wat. that's a rare view. there were others that were quite accurately described as marauding islamic rapists, but Yusuf ibn Ayyub isn't typically described as such.
>>540928970Do they also teach you that you owe Spain the unification of your archipielago?
crusades where retarded and gay, Europeans dying for the jewish homeland will never be based, that and the fact they mostly got curb stomped
>>540934234Except the 5th and 9th and a bunch of others that had English forces
>>540928970the crusades were gay and cringe and had the main goal of enriching the pope and his orbiters, nothing to do with le based christians fighting against islam
>>540928970do pinoy schools have bite marks in the desks?
>>540928970Everybody, group is bad or was bad at some time or would and will become bad depending on the situation and opportunity. Even with the best intentions things turn bad (LoL) you just have to give it enough time till another form of Judaism, Christianity or Islam pops up to come up with new rules, complains and bills, or you can also just take the weather to dictate you a new diat, new no-gos, sins and again a new bill. LoL You owe me Shlomo, I also had my tiny shoah! >>540928970
>>540934848>where retarded and gaylolhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rbjFZuHA008
>>540934949England wasn't in the 5th.The 9th was successful (don't rely on wikipedia), the English went over, won a battle, signed an advtageous treaty and came home laden with treasure.
>>540928970Sorry but the Crusades were based, the Christians were justified and Saladin was a maurauding Islamic Rapist.
>>540928970the gist of it was that mudslimes were set on conquering the Europe and Europeans had to fight back or get enslaved. It's that simple. Wether crusaders did some good or bad things is beyond the point. If ragheads didn't fuck around, they wouldn't find out.
>>540928970>>540936336oh, wait, I guess you're pro crusades and I misunderstood your postyeah, there's a trend in modern academy to present Crusades as bad, because modern academy is all infiltrated by commies and jews
>>540936388
>>540936265Suceess for anglos is enriching themselves. Nothing related with God's plan.
>>540936738>God lets something happen>some godforsaken fr*nch "NOOOOO ITS NOT GODS PLAN !!!"it clearly was gods plan, or it wouldnt have happened
>>540936845You never changed.
>>540936893Now the whole world knows of christ because of the english, and the spanish did a good job as well. What did fr*nce ever do?
>>540928970What the teacher and the sources didn't tell you is that the Jews have been false-flagging both sides since the beginning.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=L9Bme9IUjgQ
>>540937040(all they ever did is rape slaves, use their african slave states to syphon wealth, and use their african slave states to undermine england with refugees because of their incompetency. they left it in such a bad way that to this day, the best thing to do in a fr*nch colonized african nation is to leave, and they facilitate this. the fr*nch grew fat from exploitation, and began to hate the esteemed and noble english even more. while we had spices and sugar, the french had massacres in backwater shitholes)
>>540937653False, it was always a loss of money.Only jews and freemason got wealthier, not france.Likewise for you, if you're honest, the empire did not improve the lives of the common people.
>>540939615For Britain, Imperialism happened largely due to overpopulation. Too many people, not enough jobs; so many flocked to the army or the navy simply to survive, which in turn led to conquest and colonisation and new opportunities the world over. For your typical Englishman who stayed in England, it is correct to point out that they did not enjoy any of the riches that came from the Empire, however for the many soldiers and sailors and colonisers and traders; the Empire provided them a life which would otherwise have been nothing but poverty and squalor back home. The true riches were in the hands of a tiny minority; but many, many others did have a good life and standard of living because of the Empire.For the world at large, the British Empire was an immense force for good, bringing civilisation, Christianity, medicine, technology and infrastructure that changed lives immeasurably for the better.There are plenty of specific events or consequences that one can point out as bad, but I think a fair minded person would conclude the British Empire was for the most part a vehicle for good which uplifted many, both British and foreign.
