Ancient civilization is so crazy I can't believe 10,000 BC was like th- oh.. that's not...

What lack of Christianity and Classic Greece does to a mf
>>
Aztecs and Mayans were pretty much stone age. Way behind even ancient civilizations. They didn't have metal or the wheel.
>>
After reading a book about the exploits of Hernan Cortes I can safely say the Aztecs were not the most fucked up of the two. Somehow we seem to glide off the fact we did very similar shit to the aztecs and mayans in terms of gruesome societal norms. I'm not saying the mesoamericans were "better" than the europeans but I am saying that using their human sacrifice as a argument for their barbarity is hypocritical.

What did Cortes do that was as bad as mass sacrifice, cannibalism, selling human meat in the markets, selling live humans for consumption, etc?
>>
Did you know the Aztecs ate pond scum cheese? I'm reading a book about Tenochtitlan and they ate algae scraped off the top of ponds that was jade-green and dried into a fine green paste that tasted like cheese. They use it as a dietary supplement these days.

>>220204275
Nobody knows what the judas cradle is. The Mayans built a giant pyramid in the middle of their city to kill people on top of.

I like Apocalypto.
It is a top 3 film for me.

There needs to be a proper movie about Cortes because his story is so crazy it reads like fiction. I like the part when he arrives on his checkpoint stop inbetween Hispaniola and central America and some Spanish priest rushes towards the crew on a boat and explains that he's been living amongst the Mesoamericans for years and was going to be sacrificed alongside his friend but they escaped. He was there for so long his Spanish had become rusty and become Hernan local translator. The other priest had apparently gone native, had his mouth and nose pierced with jade and decided to marry a local woman.

What does that have to do with Jews?

>>220204377
What cracks me up is that Chinese eat axolotls or whatever they're called. Those little mexican newt things. It would make sense if they ate them traditionally, for thousands of years, and continued. But they don't. They had to wait until recently when they could ship them across the world. But they absolutely need to eat every fucked up animal dish they can, apparently.

It'll NEVER happen sadly. It was an incredibly amazing time in history and you will never in your life get a clear picture of what happened, too much victimization. Cortez is probably one the luckiest men on whos ever lived on this earth though.

The Spanish Inquisition was bad because it killed a couple dozen people a year for several years.
Could you imagine anything so horrible? Certainly Aztec governments built around human sacrifice and cannibalism are not any worse than that.

>>220204460
I agree. It's impossible that the story is true. There is no way any part of it could be. It's so outrageous that a priest would run away or go native or whatever it is you're upset at.

And? It looks like it's a man sized device tucked away in a basement. It's a bit different than building a fucking pyramid in the middle of town that everyone can see, every day, all day.

Why did God allow the natives to do human sacrifice in order to make the sun rise without ever learning that all they were meant to do is the prayer about bread?

The thing is, shutting down religious dissidents, secret societies, powerful potential groups etc all makes sense. It's how you keep society functioning. It's necessary, or at least it's very functional.
Eating people and mass murdering in blood rituals them really isn't. You can have a functioning society without doing that stuff. You can't have a functioning society without maintaining order and putting down uprisers.
One is a sane but necessary part of this fallen world. Maybe it could be carried out in better or worse ways, but it makes sense. The other is pure madness and evil that needs to be destroyed.
>>
There are too many people on this Earth. Perhaps the Aztecs were right. Perhaps to ensure worldly balance blood must be spilt.

lol you are a retarded mutt who has actual ZERO identity. Far from the WASP ancestry this country wish it had. You choose your background at your convenience when any power" from the old world have, and still in some cases, see one another as the subhumans dogs you think you're above.
You're an eggplant.

I was watching a video on him just the other day and was amazed at how at almost every conflict with the natives he was able to somehow not only talk himself out of getting killed but also getting them to join him

I just assume he made numerous mentions of how much more powerful his god was and used things like the firearms to prove it
>>
>>220204783
No they died for "religion" and "power" which is even sillier than warring for fun and to show off your capture ratio.

nah, peasants had to fight only because of the social contract, they could care less about what the squabble was actually about since their conditions wouldn't drastically change. they didn't believe in it but were forced to fight, actual fake wars lmao.

Yea I heard different things that he constantly got btfo'd numerous times, that he was carried by La Malinche who basically gave him all the Aztec intel, the fucking ship that happened to be nearby to reup on his men when he was increidbly down low. Insane factors occurring.

Cortez and Castillo said Tenochtitlan mogged European cities lol cope shitskin.
>“When we saw so many cities and villages built in the water and other great towns on dry land we were amazed and said it was like the enchantments… on account of the great towers and cues [temples] and buildings rising from the water, and all built of masonry. And some of our soldiers even asked whether the things that we saw were not a dream?… I do not know how to describe it, seeing things as we did that had never been heard of or seen before, not even dreamed about.”
