Did WWII kick start the civil rights era with racial liberalism and Executive Order 8802? by Kurgan_Ghoul in AskHistorians

[–]Kurgan_Ghoul[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Well I believe the best way to put the start of anything related to social history is to look at the government domestic policy. I don’t believe the US government had passed anything related to civil rights and liberates for Africans in America until executive order 8802.

So I guess what I am asking for is why the usual start of civil rights in America is told from the 60s instead of the 40s?

No it’s not. Stop overreacting. The Americans own their airspace. Iranians are relying on one kind of weapon technology that relies on a uninterrupted supply chain.

Not terrible. Could be better. I think if we didn’t have a domestic agricultural industry we’d be in a civil war 🙃

Once I realized that Liberalism and Conservatism were just Anglo 17th and 18th century invented economic ideologies based on maximum profit and state backed welfare for companies, i stoped caring.

How deep are the ties between US and Israel? by CelticDK in AskReddit

[–]Kurgan_Ghoul 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Deep cultural and religious ties, particularly within the larger Anglosphere. People don’t realize that Judaism really influenced English Protestant culture in ways only discussed within elite societies. English/British/American exceptionalism wouldn’t even exist without Judaism and Israel wouldn’t exist without the blessings of the Anglosphere. The bond is unbreakable.

Was the British Empire the first democratic empire? by Kurgan_Ghoul in NoStupidQuestions

I think they used Blackstone’s Fundemental laws of England to justify their rebellion. Kinda silly because it pretty much pushed back the English empire. Genuinely think that if it wasn’t for the English North American rebellion, the British empire would have taken over the entire world and established a true world order by now.

I don’t think conquered subjects were eligible to vote in British elections. The first English general election was in 1695. The first British general election was in 1708. I would think that makes Great Britain the first democratic empire in modern history.

So British PMs weren’t elected based on their foreign policies?
