I read fiction exclusively.

2018-10-26 02:44:01 UTC  

But it sounds riveting!

The real project will be starting the debate club and getting our community the tools they need to debate and conquer their opposition

2018-10-26 02:44:36 UTC  

@Trashboat I basically read to you. You best be there boy

well the modern stirrup as we know it is kinda hard to trace, since there is evidence for the "modern" saddle to be in Asia before anywhere else... probably
@Logan

2018-10-26 02:45:54 UTC  

but generally the stirrup first appeared widely in Europe ~700 AD

2018-10-26 02:46:55 UTC  

This stirrup talk makes me wonder why the Ancient Chinese were so prolific in their inventions but somehow along the way they just seem to have like, stopped? Is there any explanation for that or no?

@Trashboat They society was functioning to the degree it needed to.

To go along with the Mattis tweet

2018-10-26 02:48:03 UTC  

But their dynasties afterwards weren't really any worse than the ones prior were they?

2018-10-26 02:48:30 UTC  

I took Chinese for all 4 years of high school btw and never once thought to ask my teacher about this

2018-10-26 02:48:46 UTC  

China as a society is nearly an ecosystem. Rivers, Rice, Masses of people, routine mass war to reset the process

The Mongols might have had something to do with ending Chinese innovation, after they wrecked the Middle East that whole region regressed and still hasn't intellectually recovered.

Alright that was enough for me, it's time for bed after that one

2018-10-26 02:52:14 UTC  

I have a great redpill screen cap on China but I need to edit it for optics...

2018-10-26 02:53:24 UTC  

@Trashboat Well...ching ching bing bong to you too, fellow h'white man.

2018-10-26 02:54:02 UTC  

Could be bullshit, but interesting take on the bowl of mud that is the "eternal" middle kingdom

Very interesting

2018-10-26 03:32:26 UTC  

Off topic: Any chess players? (Although, since chess - or rather, a precursor to it - originated in China 3000 years ago, not totally off topic).

2018-10-26 03:32:35 UTC  

I play

2018-10-26 03:32:49 UTC  

@Gibson and @ChippedStones do as well

2018-10-26 03:33:03 UTC  

I play with them some times

2018-10-26 03:33:15 UTC  

Do you guys have chess.com accounts? I’m always looking for a good game

2018-10-26 03:35:55 UTC  

And I’d rather engage with an Identitarian in any activity

2018-10-26 03:40:33 UTC  

Hold on lads, talking to family

2018-10-26 03:50:20 UTC  

I play but not good lol
