I found a set of like 10 books from this series https://www.amazon.com/Barbarian-Europe-Great-Ages-Man/dp/0809403803 Flipped through them at a local library clearance sale for used/donated books. Are there any particularly large or active homeschooling groups from IE that could make use of them? Seem to be some quality stuff. Also have a 4 part set on frontier life in USA (Wild West type stuff, etc.) that are leatherbound, really nice. Would like to see them put to good use.

(Change of topic but coming here reminded me to ask.)

Thanks for the share!

Reminds me of the Clovis people.

Europeans were in the America’s prior to the asiatic people. Solutrean theory.

We can even find traces of clovis dna in modern day indians. Which would posit that they crossed the land bridge after them , wiped them out and then interbred with the remnents to some degree. We wuz indians.

This guy covers similar topics.

Early american landmass pre-history is such a fascinating topic

I'll definitely check his stuff out

Robert Sepehr is much more our guy than Jimmy with bright insight but both are wealth’s of knowledge.

Could anyone recommend some good sources on the Boer wars or WWI? I have been flying blind on these topics. Take "Storm of Steel" by Junger for example: the most accessible translations censor the hell of the original work.

<@&387091385075105804> ^^^

@Northri Diamonds, Gold, and War by Martin Meredith for boer wars

@Nemets Thanks! I had that one in my sights, but again, I can never tell what perspective I am getting.

What’s the best translation of Storm of Steel? @Northri

@NateDahl76 Anything but the Michael Hofmann translation... which is rough because the others are pretty tough to find.

Hofmann cut out important chunks of the original.

Anyone know a good place to find primary reasources? Specifically looking for writing from the Yuan dynasty in China, but Google has not been my friend today.

Go to China.

A good history book on the topic will have references and a bibliography at the end

That will show good primary sources.

@Northri Unironically, Mein Kampf's section on WWI is pretty accurate on the German perspective and why Germany lost.

I found "frontgamensheift" as a term that embodies the feeling of the betrayal of the German frontline by November criminals to be very apt.

@GDoctor I don't doubt it one bit. Is there any reading you would suggest on this topic?

@Northri not in an academic, cited in MLA format sense but, I think "The Guns Of August" and "All Quiet On The Western Front" are good books that capture the experience of frontline troops in WW1.

Guns of August is a great read.

Converted religion?

To what?

Became holy roman emperor as Catholic Great Britain

Fair enough. Protgang myself.

I always saw the anglo schism as a kind of very rare occurrence. Seeing as how Henry VIII was hugely pro-rome before he got mad about having an heir.

Oh I meant irl

Same

What is the 'truth'about taxes and tax policy? Do rich people pay too much or too little? Are there companies not paying taxes despite making immense profits, or is that not true? Why does Jeff Bezos pay no taxes despite making 11 billion? Is it a good thing or not?

The 1% hates you and wants you replaced

We should tax the hell out of them

For a more serious answer, rich people have lobbyists who lobby Congress to keep the tax code complex with a bunch of loopholes

A big thing is that capital gains are taxed at a much lower rate than labor income, wages.
