The Cretaceous period

All right SuperHercules, maybe the 1920s. Why? The style was cool. The hats and coats and pants. Horses, speakeasys, the early Ford? Playing the piano, or other instruments. Building the American country. Do or die mentality

I forgot about them, maybe that's why they're also known as the Silent generation. I always think the Greatest generation was before the boomers

Dinosaur brah? Do you have a favorite dino?









My grandparents were born around then.


One of my grandpas was drinking age during prohibition and told a story about going to a speakeasy.

"The seven distinct, commonly recognized generations and their approximate birth years are the Lost Generation (1883-1900), Greatest Generation (1901-1927), Silent Generation (1928-1945), Baby Boomers (1946-1964), Generation X (1965-1980), Millennials (1981-1996), and Generation Z (1997-2012). The youngest generation is Generation Alpha (2013-mid 2020s), which is sometimes included in the list."

All of my grandparents were Greatest Generation. My mom was technically Silent Generation, but just barely and my dad was a year younger- Boomer. I always just thought of them as Boomers. It seems a little trippy that there are already two generations after my daughter who is only 20- Gen Alpha and Gen Beta which just started in 2025.

There's always a tipping point. I'm not sure full on revolution is possible any more. I think way too many people are apathetic enough that they won't jeopardize their lives unless they are literally on the brink of homelessness. They also didn't have such pervasive surveillance or intelligence agencies back then. Any type of revolution would have to be extremely well-planned and kept under wraps. I think it's far more likely we see more Luigi type murders than an actual serious revolution attempt.

Military conquest to keep the population distracted only works for so long as well. Endless military expansion is not sustainable, especially now when most of the earth is claimed and there are bigger consequences for just going in and invading a place. Even US citizens are much more aware of all that nowadays, which is why a lot of people have negative opinions on our involvement in Iraq, Syria, Libya, Ukraine (the 2014 coup), and now Iran. Then if you want to go back further Korea, Vietnam, or the 70s-80s Afghanistan proxy war.

AI is the big thing on the horizon that could accelerate or decelerate us to a potential tipping point. When jobs disappear and people are out of work, those people will become desperate and that's when apathy turns to action. The one thing they could do to stunt that is UBI. UBI will become necessary when enough jobs are taken away. It's just a question of how much will they give, and who will pay for it? The corporations will benefit greatly from utilizing AI and automation instead of having more employees. Fairness would dictate that they should pass the savings on to the people whose jobs are lost. But these people aren't fair, and they will bribe politicians if they have to. My guess is UBI will end up being not enough for many to live on, depending on where people live.

I would go back a little further. Read into the Freikorps stomping commies in the 1920s and into the early days of the NSDAP.

2020-2022

Bronze age.

Some civilizations are well known - minoans, egyptians and so on but still some mystery to it in northern europe I guess.

Would like to learn more about stuff like the amber roads, trade networks and organization around bringing baltic amber and more all the way to the pharaohs of egypt at that time.

I like the early 2000s

Hmm. IDK why but when I think of the Bronze Age I mainly think of the collapse and the Sea Peoples.

Yeah interesting stuff, seen some docus on them as well.

If this is the right video he suggests that the Sea Peoples weren't a single tribe. Suggests that people took to the sea seeking food because there was widespread famine.

Did you study up in advance?





Oh? Not Greek and Roman?

Everything I know about Ancient Egypt I learned in Art History.





Do you teach?

IMO that's a mysterious one. It seems there were cities and millions of people, then Europeans showed up for a visit, came back and the place was nearly empty. And that the Amazon appears that have been a cultivated food garden that became overgrown due to neglect.

No, I just like to read.

I loved the thought of bag guys using the supernatural in books like "Spear of Destiny" then started to read actual experts like Peter Levenda, Nicholas Goodrik Clarke , Ken Anderson and David Luhrsenn.

There is also a great book about Hitler's scientists and how Hitler had a great disdain for Christianity because it rejected the natural world. Hitler thought that Christian dogma was responsible for a lot of environmental damage because Christians were taught that paradise was in heaven not Earth (so they didn't care that they treated the environment like shit) I think it is called "The Devil's Pact" I will have to go check my books when I get home from work.

Men should read every day even if it is a few pages before bed.

An important lesson is that despite having a good prosperous society if you don't maintain things it can all fall apart.

If this is the right video he suggests that the Sea Peoples weren't a single tribe. Suggests that people took to the sea seeking food because there was widespread famine.

You should join our discord. We have a books section.

Ancient Greece and the Spartans always interests me.

That's cool that you heard a story about it. It is trippy how fast time flies. I think part of what makes it seem so far off for me is the black and white film, with the slight hesitation as the film is rolling.

On r/c. Good gif!

Tenochtitlan in the year 1500 AC. Would be epic to time travel to the ancient american venice

Missed this post, I assume he was just being cheeky lol. I like dinos, but I haven't studied them much. I played a game called Ark Survival Evolved for a while, as well as the remake Ark Survival Ascended. I like Mammoths, Deinocheirus, Therizinosaurus, and Quetzalcoatlus.



Yeah I'm not quite sure where it's all headed. Some speculate the eventual goal is two distinct societies, one lower class who basically live in slums, and another ultra rich class who are separate from everything and enjoy all the benefits of free labor from machines and AI, plus free energy from eventual nuclear fusion.


I'll look into that book. Beyond the environmental stuff, he also privately disliked Christianity because he thought it made men too meek. He was raised Catholic, and in his adult life he still publicly projected a Christian persona, mostly because he had to because Germany was still like 95% Christian at the time. But privately he was very critical and even said Islam was more admirable because it was more conducive to nationalism.

That's different. What drew you to that period/place?

1991? That's quite a big chunk. The French Revolution through the end of the Soviet Union?

I think there are shades of truth to that, but mostly because Christianity has been infiltrated and subverted by hostile Jews and Bolshevism. Christians and Jews spent centuries hating each other before arriving at our current situation where the majority of both groups are fine being lumped together as "Judeo-Christian."

This was done directly through the Vatican, as well as through specifically targeting Catholic parishes in America and the USCCB. The Communist Party USA put 1100 men into the priesthood during the first half of the 20th century. Then Alexander Trachtenberg gave a speech at a Communist Party convention at Madison Square Garden in 1948. His speech included the following:



This is all included in a book titled "The Devil and Bella Dodd." One of the same authors also previously wrote another book titled "The Devil and Karl Marx" that I haven't read yet.

Then you have the way Saul Alinsky was able to maneuver himself into a position of influence within the Catholic Church and various Catholic press organizations in the US. One of his main advocates was Monsignor Egan, who was at one time a student of Alinsky. He funneled funding and support to Alinsky until Cardinal Cody found out about it and removed him from his position. He eventually found refuge at the University of Notre Dame (my alma mater) where Father Hesburgh invited him to stay. Not sure if this was the start of the subversion of Notre Dame, but a lot of it did come from this. Egan eventually returned to Chicago after Cardinal Bernardin invited him back to serve as human resources director.

We'll never know for sure if Hesburgh or Egan were one of the 1100 men, but at the end of the day it doesn't really matter because the result was the same as if they were.

I think when you are a kid anything that happened before you were born is "history" or IOW "a long time ago". But then when you are older you start to realize that many things you view that way were experienced by your parents or grandparents.

Oldies radio will do it too. I clearly remember the oldies station being mainly music from the 50s. Classic rock had 60s/70s.
Now? The Oldies station plays 80s and 90s music.

The first two have lots of fans. What drew you to The Gilded Age?

Some things I've seen recently have made me curious about President Grant.
