lol

yeah, no one seems to like to talk about how the crusaders killed about half as many christians as muslims

if they died

they werent really christians were they

<:Thot:601779905474330624>

iirc didnt they sack one of the cities because they didnt pay what they said they would?

what are they, the british empire?

history is written by the victors... until history is dug up later and observed from an objective outside viewpoint

funny how that works

i acknowledge the crusaders in terms of the grand scheme of things but how they really behaved in terms of *honorable combat and dealing with civilians* was very yikes and oof, dare i say cringe

eh, the outside viewpoint will still be tainted slightly

well once it gets to the mainland

archaeologists themselves tend to be pretty unbiased, I've found

huh, nice

i mean... when you're out in the fucking dirt digging around, and possibly in the heat i can see why

yeah, hard to keep political ideology and bias when you're in the business of finding what time forgot in climes that no one else wants to be in

well, telling people that their sins and debauchery will be forgiven if they fight for the pope really doesnt make for a very noble bunch of recruits

yeah...

Oh Catholics were a fucking racket for the longest time

fuckin proto-austrian shennanigans

kinda like now where anyone who would go for jihad just for the *promise* of underaged poosey probably isnt of sound mind to begin with

by around the time of the first ottoman forays into hungary they just about said plainly "hey, pay up and the pearly gates are yours"

Then along came good ol' Martin Luther

... or I may be mixing up notes hammered on the doors of cathedrals

no wait that's right, it was some other guy around the ottoman time that challenged the infallibility of the Pope as the voice of god

so all the christian sects were all huffing puffing and burning houses down over it and too busy to help save the boy-king of Hungary from Sulleiman

Yay Lutherans

who let the 6y old bitch on internet ?

bit late for that complaint, my dude

youre talking to a goddamn internet legend

can't beat that frame though

lol
