That’s exactly how I feel. AD or BC. Fuck that “common era” crap.
Not all nations use BC and AD
They use different calenders.
Europe bases its Calendar off the Gregorian Calendar, and BC and AD were only first used somewhere around the 9th Century.
And the Gregorian Calendar was invented in 1582, so our way of numbering things is fairly new
Using AD was around long before that
The Gregorian calendar is just an improved version of the Julian calendar
And pretty much every country uses BC and AD except North Korea
well, and Ethiopia
and like a few other weirdo nations
but even then I'd imagine there are people in Ethiopia who use Gregorian or Julian as well, so maybe I'm wrong
I just know they have a calendar that's in like 2011 right now lol
Orthodox Christians use the Julian calendar for holidays
i know that, then places like Russia have two Christmases and two Easters lol
I don't think they celebrate the Gregorian one
Something like 85% of Russians are Orthodox Christian
i believe some of the orthodox around here celebrate both, but the more secular ones
not the actual strong believers
they do generally celebrate both, and 85% is a vast overestimation
Pew Research says 71% Orthodox, 1.8% Protestant, 0.5% Catholic, 0.3% Other Christian
actually, looking more up it seems to be very unclear--85% was definitely too high, but it seems like it's been determined to be anywhere from as low as ~48% to as high as like ~77%, but most seem to figure about 70% ± 1-5%
but yes, I'm pretty sure they do celebrate (or "celebrate" at least) it--they might see it as less important than the Julian christmas, idk, but they do at least mostly acknowledge it, same with the Gregorian Easter
I can't find any indication of Orthodox celebrating Gregorian Christmas
I'm sure they know about it of course
So something I just learned
There were 4 places with mental health courts to begin with. 2 are Broward county and San bernadino. Other 2 are Anchorage an king county Washington.
Wonder if those courts had ulterior motives
🤔
Sounds like they don't use them much
Or use them to recruit shooters and bombers
America is lost.
Idk
Maybe this is the push for all normal liberals to jump ship
Depending on how crazy they get I couldnt see them getting as many votes as hill dog got
Their funnel approach wont work
Soon as someones favored candidate loses they'll lose interest
I think they will continue to cannabalize then when Gen election debates happens trump pulls out all the shit he has been up to that isnt reported and more people get sold on him
It still has to pass the Senate and the Imperial Throne
