I’m just saying the whole premise of the meme is extremely flawed. It’s made to imply that modern life is in any way as bad as medieval serfdom and that is just not true. For example, did you know that most medieval peasants didn’t own their own ovens and were forced to take the food they produced to someone else to cook it if they weren’t eating something that could be cooked on a simple hearth? Or that they literally weren’t allowed to leave the land they were assigned to without permission from their lord? Yeah things are bad today but they were way worse back then.

You know serfdom basically still exists in parts of the world. Why not go to one of those places and ask if they’d rather live there or in the USA?

LEDs aren’t the problem, it’s that they’re too bright in the forward direction. It’s perfectly possible to make normal brightness LED headlights, car manufacturers just don’t do it because bright headlights look great on the lot and sell more cars

I know I was just saying 3000 years and basically nobody alive today understands the language. Even people who devote their whole lives to the languages around at that time are basically just making informed guesses on pronunciation and would probably struggle considerably to understand an actual speaker.

Have you read the Bible? Half of the Old Testament is God getting mad at Israel and punishing them with wars and diseases. I haven’t done the math but more of God’s wrath in the Bible seems to be directed at Israel rather than her enemies.

3000 years is insanely long for language. Consider that the mother fucking alphabet was invented around 1000 BC*, and basically no languages that anyone still speaks existed in their modern forms. Homer hadn’t written the Illiad and the Odyssey yet, and the standard Greek that came to be defined by these works had also yet to develop. If you went back to 1000 BC you’d have no idea what was going on.

*Although previous alphabets existed, the Phoenician alphabet that became the basis for pretty much all modern writing systems in Europe, North Africa, and Western Asia was invented around 1100 BC

Number of deaths in the crusades- 1,000,000

Number of deaths in the colonization of the Americas- 59,000,000+

Well for starts the crusades were about more than just religion, and it’s pretty obvious that they weren’t the end of Christian religious violence and that nobody “learned their lesson” from them.

This is a really poor understanding of the crusades as well as religious violence in general.

Jews don’t really hate anyone for not believing in their God. Unlike Christianity and Islam, Jews don’t believe that everyone has to follow their religion. They don’t really believe in Heaven and Hell, and they don’t proselytize to people who aren’t already Jews. Judaism is for the Jewish people and that’s it.
