Let Talk about History (past study)

Media is the biggest lie in the world...

 

If people in the country don't know about it then it's hardly a war.

 

Could you share with us what do you see?

 

This brings to mind the pseudo-war going on within US borders during the not so great ‘70’s.

(I grew up during the 70’s, it sucked!)

While the Vietnam War was in it’s last years, here in the US there were terrorists groups such as The Symbionese Liberation Army, The Weather Underground, The Black Panthers, The Jewish Defense League, and several others setting off bombs, kidnapping people (Patty Hearst being the most infamous), murdering, robbing banks and stores, and basically being a pain in the ass to the American population.

The beginning of the end for the Symbionese Liberation Army was a famous shootout with the LA police in 1974 that was broadcast on live TV.

Unfortunately (IMO) some look back at these groups with a romanticized view. It seems The Weather Underground falls into that category.

 

Feels nice to have this topic in my arms. I will be a history teacher in years.

 

Thanks. Watched it, liked it!

 

Well, others dont really want to worry about other shit, some act. Honestly it is painful to think how someobody will die now or after 5 minutes and we cant do shit about it.

 

It's crazy to think about since nuclear power is the power that makes people fear you. I guess knowing Hitler it would be even crazier than with americans.

 

Honestly, I don't really like it. I don't like war after all. My both grandfathers were there. One lost his leg, another caught tuberculosis and was in concentration camp. Glad he escaped, but yeah, war is hell, war is shit. I more like all that stuff about vikings, warriors, medieval age. My mother used to work at Turaida castle:
And I, as a 6 year old kid started walking around the place, discovering interesting things, getting closer to nature and all that. And since then I started loving it. I love medieval times, ancient times. Yeah, war is interesting cause it's talking about a lots of morals, there's a lot to learn from it when it comes to mistakes of history etc. What I really used to enjoy is 1930s/1940s mafia life in U.S, La Cosa Nostra. I know some stuff on 90s Russia, especially criminal stuff since I've seen tons of video material on it. History is really important for us all.

 

I wish i was born 5000 years ago or something.

You know what actually, i think being born in any other era is better than being born now, even living in the "dark" ages is preferable to me than living nowadays.
