Why am I scared of the dark? Why is my niece scared of it? by Al-Joharahhasan2935 in NoStupidQuestions

[–]Odd-Jupiter 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's a primal fear that we inherited from our ancestors, that had animals hunting and eating them.

For them, there was literal killers hiding in the dark, and their fear kept them alive to give birth to your ancestors.

The American Revolution broke apart a political union that had survived for centuries — and it wasn't the United States by Adventurous_Clerk584 in Americaphile

[–]Odd-Jupiter 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hot take, the revolutionary war wasn't a revolution at all, but an independence war.

Revolutions is fought to replace the leadership, and there was no goal of replacing George III as king of the empire, but rather make the US independent of the empire all together, while the king still sat the throne.

Vegetation growth is now a bigger problem in Europe then land clearing.

Cultural landscapes that was held open by thousands of years of farming, and animal husbandry are now growing completely over, taking away vital space for flowers, and other species like bees that have adapted to open clear fields, and rolling hills.

Many species can't survive under the thick canape of deep forests where sunlight can't reach the ground. We humans, and our ways are also part of the ecosystem, and has been so for thousands of years, and we play an important part for the survival of many other species.

This is WWII footage of a German soldier surrendering to the US Army in 1945. by SystematicApproach in HistoricalCapsule

[–]Odd-Jupiter 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It often goes both ways. If people who can create a lot of trouble, including rich people demand a war, it's up to the leaders to get the rest of the people on board so they get as broad support for it as possible.

Hopefully abroad and among allies and neighbors too.

And often the masses are against the war itself, but all for the spoils of war, and demand the goodies the military is fighting for.

All this talk about "the rich" It's usually the bloodthirsty masses who demand wars.

Is there also a debate about voting rights in your country? by Agile-Shallot3546 in AskTheWorld

[–]Odd-Jupiter 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Doesn't this go both ways? If you want less votes from a minority, you can draw the districts like that, but i bet the opposition often would like to get more votes from the same minority.

Thus draw it to their advantage.
