I suggest watching a series called America in color it goes through 1920s to 1960s
Each era has a episode dedicated to it
still laughing when Biden called Abraham Lincoln a racist at the debate
you know you mentioned kids are taught history is boring. This is off the subject of course, but I think a lot of our education problems stem from the fact school makes kids not like learning. Like history is often boring. I'll admit a lot of parts of history can be boring, but there is a lot of excitement as well. Then you have fucking english class making kids hate reading. You try to get kids to like reading by overanalyzing reading material. No on fucking likes doing that except nutty english teachers. And now you have kids that hate reading which is not only a valuable skill, but something that increases their knowledge of the world around them.
Sorry it was completely off the subject
I enjoy history, half the music I listen to is about military history, I watch a youtube channel talking about said songs, and I am reading a book rn about the Ottomans and the Habsburgs, I'm definitely the minority
Yeah I agree captain
^^^Yeah that's accurate
thx, but what kind of historical music do you listen to?
Sabaton or literal historical songs written decades ago
Sabaton, it's mostly metal
Nice
I like listening to old music
It's not really historical

@Captain Riker This is exactly what happened to me. I used to love reading before I met an English teacher
I do have the nazi, Russian, Japanese, and American anthems on my phone
I've expanded my tastes in music. So I like of course Sabaton, but I can dig into historical songs, chants, and all other stuff
Curse the English teachers
I downloaded the nazi anthem because of it being censored nearly everywhere
I don't like censorship of history
oh yeah censorship of history is mega RETARDED
Yeah if you censor history then you don't know the truth, only what the winners want to show
I don't think I've ever even heard the nazi anthem?
I'll have to listen to it
I listened to it and to be honest I like it because I like pride in ones country I don't like nazis I like pride
I can agree with that
nationalism is a good thing
I respect it
I just can't always respect the ideology on the other side of by rifle sights
Yeah
That's why I like people like Rommel or Robert E. Lee, they didn't fight for their side because they believed in it's policies, like Nazism and slavery respectively, but rather for their country/state
Yep Robert joined the Confederates because his home state was on the side of the Confederacy
Didn't Rommel abandon Hitler towards the end of the war or am I remembering someone else
Robert was a good general
most definitely better than Grant
Rommel was suicided
Ahh I did not know
He was forced to either take cyanide or his family would die
I respect Roberg may not like Confederates but he stuck with his state
Robert*
