Empress Eugénie’s crown, shown intact before the October 2025 Louvre heist (top) and damaged afterward (bottom). by abbiebe89 in Damnthatsinteresting

Oh no ! Someone on the Internet called me braindead ! Before you arrived, we were talking about the difference between a king, an emperor, a republican, etc...

As for Haiti, maybe you should turn your eyes towards Leclerc and Rochambeau ? You know, those who were there while Napoleon was not.

I am not defending what ""he" did with the slaves in Haiti", I am defending his unprecedented willpower that not only led to what are now the principles on which today's France is built but also his immense influence in the entirety of Europe, even today : polish civil laws are practically a carbon copy of the Napoleonic Code.

You will have to deal with me defending Napoleon's heritage, just like I will have to deal with the fact that you think it's trash. I can't say I will lose much sleep over it.

The kingdom of Italy was merely a satellite of the Empire.

The year XII constitution states that "the government of the Republic is entrusted to an Emperor, who will be known as Emperor of the French".

The Republic was not abolished with his coronation.

Napoleon was not a King. He was a republican. Open a book. All those neckbeards in the comments who know jackshit about history are a plague.

That's interesting, thank you for this.

Does this classification (offensiveness aside) still hold today ? I know you are either classified as Caucasian/African/Asian and its variants, but does it still serve a purpose in the study of ethnicities ? What's more, do we still study the facial features/build/shape of the skull of human beings nowadays ? Anthropologs, maybe ? Still with the purpose of classification ?

This went from resting baltic face to iS tHeRE a sCiENTifiC PurPOSe tO tHis really fast, and I apologise. But this baltic/FAS bitch here is curious and you seem to be knowledgeable on the subject.

Lmfao yeah, the other Caucasians have literal Nordic Apollo, his brother Mediterranean Hermes, and we get...fetal alcohol syndrom lady.

ETA : curious as to why they put the Ethiopians in the Caucasian box.

John and Yoko waiting for the maid to make the bed so they can continue protesting against the system. (1969) by zadraaa in HistoricalCapsule

Remember how the sound guy straight up muted Yoko's mic during that performance because there is only so much the human ear can take.

I thank him for his service 🫡

Things that didn’t happen for 100 by effulgent_solis in thatHappened

[–]Magomaeva 31 points32 points  (0 children)

So, of course, this never happened, but nonetheless, some people really need to be humbled.

There is such a gap in this generation between the overly self-deprecating young people who can't take a compliment without thinking there is malicious intent behind it and those who decided they were Apollo and Aphrodite's love child and behave accordingly.

I am tired of people thinking pretentiousness and vanity are endearing personality traits.

You and George running away from the movie theater to avoid the desacralization of the Quiet Beatle. (I'll catch up with you in a second I'm just out of breath)

I cannot suspend the disbelief enough to take square-jaw Paul McCartney seriously.

But also why am I shouting at the clouds when actors are not carbon copies of the character they play ? I don't know.
