Same for the Kurdish flag. Red represents the blood of the martyrs and the people

in germany the red symbolizes the carpet we roll out for the US <:kek:590371888480387073>

Res in the Italian one is for the tomato sauce on the pizza

@Holy Intersectional Inquisition Germany is shit these days, and prefers to roll that carpet for Russia these days.

Uhmmm I can't say much about the text, but the image is most definetly wrong. That doesn't look like the fashion of the mid 17th Century at all... looks like some random image of a black person from the mid to late 1800s

Are you saying it's a photoshop?

i doubt that they could just take a random picture of a black guy and then just put it next to the text

it all must be fake

@Capitán Alatriste naw it is actually attributed as him.

William (April) Ellison tho... he was the type of owner people imagine when thinking of white slave owners.

And he was a black freed slave who's owner actually treated him really well and even educated him.

oof

Nigs gonna nog

think of the screeching if you did bring that up at black history month

I bring it up every time people bitch about slavery in the us. "If it wasnt for a black man the US might have kept their indentured servitude model instead."

i always bring up the ottomans

the barbary pirates

the fact that blacks sold slaves to whites

@Goblin_Slayer_Floki the dress is wrong. Either that or the dates privided

the picture does not matter that much

like i said before

No it isnt. Not everyone dressed exactly the same everywhere.

👍

i was listening to podcast that said how medieval peasants being malnourished in childhood affected them psychosocially so that they acted less independent in later life

because of this, nobility thought of peasants as a different race

because they were factually psychologically different

and behaved in a way that was more dependent on others

just thought it was interesting

Seems interesting

But this ignores the social, religious and philosophical norms of the Era

That and environmental. Especially in the dark ages, but also standard middle ages. It was a fight for survival, so if someone promised protection that was one less thing the peasantry had to deal with.

well the era was 10th century ad

@Goblin_Slayer_Floki malnourishment is environment, no?

10th century wasn't all that known for its philosophy, mostly just being right at the end of the 'dark ages' for europe

beginning of feudalism basically

10th century was the best time to be alive

you had freedom

and clean air

and eight dead children by the time you reached middle age at 14
