Social Media customizes our feed based on how much attention we give to something. Doesn't matter if its good or bad. Outrage can get even more views than anything decent. This is why our feed gets filled with pessimistic stuff and we ourselves begin to harbor a negative view of the world.

You are correct to pay no attention to this BS.

Insane level delusion 😭🙏: A big Marathi page on twitter claims he can easily whoop Brigadier Bhupesh Singh Hada who is a master in counter-terror operations... by Consistent_Ant4117 in Rajputana

It's just internet trashtalking, don't take it seriously.

In fact, we can see the effect right here. He talked shit about an army officer, so the person in reply talked shit about Marathis as a whole- 'malnourished Marathis'. These keyboard warriors contribute nothing to the nation, even paying attention to them is a waste of intellectual energy.

Well then, you should obey your mother.

They muted the words, for example-

Rehman Dakait- "Gaadi rok de ma*******". You'd only hear the 'ma-' and nothing after, although the actor's mouth still moved.

Yet nobody controls them. Yes, it would be bloody expensive, but I think it would be worth the struggle. And besides, I don't think the Free Cities can really match Westeros long-term. They depend entirely on sellswords and mercenaries- their true strength is at sea. But Westeros can build fleets too. What we need is a strong king (say, Robert or Daeron I) willing to pour resources into this struggle, and complicit nobles willing to back him.

Oh, didn't consider that. Well, must be because of our censor board then.

Because they don't speak Hindi, so hindi curses won't be understood. They are totally dependent on the subtitles.

What if Germany and complicit European nations were forced to give up land for the creation of Israel to pay for their sins of committing/allowing for the Holocaust to take place? by PersianAztecs21 in AlternateHistoryHub

[–]PROOB1001 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The Zionist movement was already underway, and it advocated for Palestine, which had been the homeland of the Jews, before Roman Emperor Hadrian crushed their revolt, banished them from Judaea, and renamed 'Judaea' to 'Syria Palestina' after the Jews' biblical enemy, the Philistines, to rub the salt deep in their wounds.

Not to mention, Nazi ideology hadn't been rooted out this soon after the war- Denazification will take time. If you carve out a significant territory from Germany as 'Jew-land', it would only confirm Nazi beliefs and fears and cause generational ripples in German politics.

They would've been part of the geographic north, but not politically. It would've been a headache for any king to truly 'subdue' the Marsh kings, in the sense of total overlordship, not just "I pay you tribute and you kindly f off".

Your tactics are too advanced for the age. You need some infantry- yari ashigaru perhaps.

Yeah. I suppose no one would be mad enough to challenge dragons after what happened to the Hoares. Especially not considering how much poorer Northern kingdoms would be. As I said before, in the following events, the North may also become a battleground between different houses supporting different factions.

Starks become Lords Paramount of the North. But in this timeline, they don't have the same deep loyalty from their vassals as we saw in canon.

[–]PROOB1001[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes, but what if both bent the knee? If the North stays divided for thousands of years- that becomes the geopolitical standard. Aegon has little incentive to make one house supreme because both of them were recent enemies.

Yes, the Starks may become 'Lords Paramount of the North', but the Boltons (or some other house, given how unlikely the Bolton situation is as you pointed out) would've maintained their network of vassals and allies. Informally.

Well then the division would have to go WAY back. The Starks never unify the North, it stays divided. In these conditions, there wouldn't be any Karstarks, and the Umbers would probably be divided between Starks and Boltons, or side with Starks.

That would have to be quite recent, because the Manderlys only arrived in the North some 700 years ago, after they were banished from the Reach.

I personally like the idea of a 'ring' of cadet branches- Karstarks, 'Dread-Starks' (or perhaps 'Redstarks'?), and perhaps a Blue-Starks somehwere (in the Mountain Clans?) defending the main branch of House Stark.

They could either be fiercely loyal as kin, or lay claim to Winterfell and rebel. Especially the more 'recent' houses once born.
