well personally, I like to know more about the world outside of the west

That's fine

I don't want it IN the west tho

how others perceive the west is interesting

yeah the only way to learn about it is to bring it all here /sarcasm

lol

i wanna learn about islam, the best way to do that is to take a dick in the ear <:HonkHonk:566814473646768128>

Or some acid to the face

sigh i guess so

richard bulliet was the only guy i remember listening to about muslim history

besides that, there's History of Byzantium, but it's not much

I still have to read the quran

What's ironic is you cant own a machine gun without a ton of red tape in America, but you can own a ww1/2 era tank.

But that is germany

Can only own a gun that was build before 1871 without having a license

I remember that story. The guy had been using it as a snow tractor for decades but he drew a bit too much of the spotlight so the government stepped in

Honestly I think you could own an Abrams

I'm not aware of any cases of such, but I don't think any laws prohibit it.

There are no laws about tanks in the US.

It's basically a fancy tractor, and there's no ammo.

as long as the guns are deactivated, you can own one in norway but you cant drive it on public roads

Well yeah you can't here in America either to my knowledge.

So transporting them is probably a massive headache. Who tows tanks?

Big trucks

Typically they are deactivated by sawing the breech block open somehow, but there are some people who own operational old equipment, typically for historical demonstrations and firing old surplus armor piercing solid shot ammunition. Don't know the hoops to get that transition though

just load the tank on your donkey

Amazing!

15,000 years ago

the word "diverse" is ruined

`"You keep using that word. I do not think it means what you think it means."`

in b4 sub saharan Africans are deemed a separate species

we've come full circle

@Fitzydog yes, humans evolved from primates not monkeys

<:pepe_sweat:378719424548569088>

blashphemy!

humens evolved from aliens!

No, humans were elevated from lower hominids by the Anunnaki

And thus was created the original civilization
