love it bro!

what do u mean @Xychotic

I mean German history is so heavily influenced by religious orthodoxy, for a long time, they were little better than a christian state.

even the socialism?

No, the extreme socialism was an after effect of WWI.

That they were open to it can't really be laid at the feet of christianity.

Dude, the reconstruction of Germany after WWII... they really don't teach you about that shit in school.

Super interesting stuff

I always wondered about it, and figured that the US had a lot to do with it. Apparently we, along with the UK, stole as much of their intellectual property as humanly possible lol. It's probably the reason why Western Europe is always considered much better off than Eastern Europe.

We?

I meant the US

my bad

We didn't steal it.

They lost a war.

plundered it. same shit

We *plundered* it.

No.

We fought and bled in that war.

we still didnt invent the stuff my dude

They initiated the war. They put their everything on the table in that gamble and lost.

so it was stealing

I won't dispute that @Xychotic

not like it was neccesarily "evil" of us to do that. we still did tho

I don't buy into this "stealing" narrative.

not really a narritive

Moral ramifications become really blurry when you get into who the instigator is, and the chain of "one transgression justifying another"

they owned it. we took it by force. stealing

who cares. fuck them

somebody say narratives<:aliensguy:537754317122437121>

they were killing people and trying to take over europe

@Xychotic Stealing was the wrong word to use.
