well what do you want to talk about before making sweeping generalizations without evidence or reason?

My dad was a historian and he said I had at least an undergraduates understanding of history

He's not wrong, though. Tons of kids here just repeat basic infograph propagandist talking points and screech "NIGGERS JEWZ," or go
>x country
>white
and then there's some smart anons who actually bring a lot to the table and have a historical framework/context to things which make this place worth coming to

Not enough.

Read history books every now and then.

>2 minutes ago
Hi Richard, fuck off.

>((((((STELZER))))))

I have a bachelor's in history and enjoy history books.

That being said, I recommend history as a hobby, it's not worth going into debt over.

I want to get into history, if I could avoid crippling debt what jobs would be open?

100% of male libs are probably more educated on dick taste and anatomy than average Sup Forums user

Literally none.

Curator of a museum or a teacher.

Spotted the shitskin

History's better as a compliment unless you're aiming for teaching/research
And even then, it's better as a compliment to other degrees

People are shills, newfag. And it is the niggers and the Jews. Read a book.

Okay Mr. College Liberal, what do you think about Hitler?

Liberals think education and indoctrination are the same thing.

i'm definitely not less educated on history and politics than the average college liberal

however that isn't saying much at all

100% of /Richard Stelzer/ knows nothing about what they teach in college. History indeed. I haven't had a good laugh at someone's tweet in a long time.

>Masters in military history
>Was basically groomed to be an intelligence analyst for a three letter agency out of High School through Family connections.
>Would've focused on coming up with counter insurgency strategy for occupying forces.

>People are shills, newfag. And it is the niggers and the Jews
Was pretty obvious I was referring to the low energy "humor" shitpostrz that have taken place of actual worthwhile posts.

Ok, how do I network if I am aiming for teaching/research? My plan was to join the history club, and get a TA position as soon as possible to get my name out.

I bet most Americans Sup Forumsacks can't name the first five U.S. presidents, or the current floor leaders in the house and senate without Google. Yet you spend your days obsessing over political ideas and current events you don't even understand.

also, """educated"""

he's probably referring to post modernist horseshit

wow dude go quote some more foucault

They are. Any honest professor will tell you this.

I submit my PhD on the 4th September
I was a candidate in the 2016 Elections

I am not Martin Laidlaw.

It's always good to know more!

But don't forget. They was killin them Germans and the holocaust is a damn joke. Khazar babies.

I'm a history graduate. Undergrads have no understanding of history. Grads have no understanding of history either.

The only people who understand history are those who read a lot of ancient texts, catholic theologians and successful investors and businessmen

>atypical men that sit on their computer all day and read are less educated on history and politics than your average college liberal

>We know less than we can read from past posted liberal bullshit
>We somehow have power to change our opinion

Shit don't addy fatty.

>I bet most Americans don't have trivia knowledge

what use is being able to name a president?

>and successful investors and businessmen
Please evaporate.

...

>Tfw have read ancient text but too much of a brainlet to read anything that isnt translated
Plz no bully Ill learn Latin and Greek when I get to college I swear :(

In order to be good at making money you must understand history to truly understand economics, human behaviour and the current state of affairs. You can't be a good businessman and not be aware of Jewish world domination. Henry ford and Walt Disney for example

>(((Richard Stelzer)))

Bullshit.

I know from your pic, Nelson Mandela is one of those things you said.

>not knowing the founding fathers, what they believed, and what they contributed to our current system of government, and not caring
This country is truly fucked

>hurhur 4chinz doesn't know this broad study
>who here knows this broad study

It's framed as any sort of questions or thought, you're a fucking shill.

Cicero was pretty fun to read.

Little did I know that Romans had a ranking system for homosexuality: fucking a guy in the ass was pretty gay, but manly. Getting fucked in the ass was totally gay and utter, irredeemable faggotry

But user previous market data isn't vindicative of future trends. Both Austrians AND Keynsians agree on this.

exactly, being able to name a president is useless information if that's all you know

you seem to have a low bar for political knowledge

Lets prove him wrong Sup Forums. Financial scare of 1869, aka Black Friday, go.

It's not

I can name at lease 40 and im not even American

I know that Martin Laidlaw wrote this:

Considering my degree was in modern history and politics I would say a fair amount.
>inb4 shit non-stem degree

My degree opened doors for a pretty good career unrelated to my degree

I was reading biographies of Hannibal on my own time in the fourth grade. Find me a normal liberal who can knows it's not just the name of a movie.

i read history and philosophy and keep up with the news daily

Didn't some College kids get interviewed and asked about Socialism to conclude that both "it's awesome" and "I have no idea of what it is"?

Pretty sure they don't get real classes anymore, just propaganda.

>How much does Sup Forums know about history and politics?
almost everything, AMA

is he talking about history they teach in current year? because alot of the shit they teach now days has been so corrupted by liberals i doubt most old people would even consider it reality

with that being said, considering how many shariablue fags come on here who can't even google, i would say its a safe bet

You're fine. Translations are excellent quality these days as long as they are literal, done by people without agendas and you understand the cultural context (so usually study notes to accompany). Nothing beats getting to the earliest source materials and studying them directly though. Latin and ancient Greek are excellent for study (although Greek has changed a lot even in the ancient world). I will have my children learn to read write and speak Latin and koine Greek fluently. Everything else is pretty niche and unnecessary

Well, I went to college, and while I'm certainly not a historian, I do like to read about it.

too bad trump is the biggest kike shill there is

i don't see the parallels

I've recently been reading the younher Pliny's letters and the way Roman aristocrats did things is both highly respetable and metal
>one of his best friends is starving himself to death
>wife begs pliny to talk sense into him
>pliny goes to talk with him
>guy logically explains his reasons for doing so
>pliny proceeds to agree with him and tells the wife the dude is right

It is. Anyone who says otherwise is just trying to justify their speculation. Read up on warren buffet.

Maybe if you read it you would.

1. Washington
2. Adams
3. Jefferson
4. Madison
5. Monroe

You got me on the on the floor leaders though.

>90% of Sup Forums is less indoctrinated on the history and politics than your average college liberal

Fixed that for you

Most come to Sup Forums post liberalism as a resault of continued education

>Pic related

>american history is the only history
>american politics are the only politics

90% of Sup Forums

I dunno, if two of the most disagreeable schools of economics (Fucking Krugman and Rothbard) agree on something, I think the case is closed.

You seem to have a high bar for political knowledge if you think it's unreasonable to expect people on a political board to have a 6th grade level knowledge of American history.

shit dawg, how'd you gonna burn that shit? its just going to get moldy

in some ways i'm inclined to agree with you.

The real explanation for this:
liberals are so convinced that they are right and good, that people with other opinions can only be evil. Even if trucks driven by their pet-immigrants mow down little kids, they still think that their actions are good and intelligent and everyone else is dumb and evil.

I feel like I know quite a bit about certain topics I'm passionate about, like the US Civil War and the Italian Renaissance. I'm definitely better educated than college liberals though, not even fucking close, but that's not saying much, the average college liberal has no idea who Ulysses S Grant was. I was pretty well known for my historical knowledge in college actually.

American history is so boring to me.
I'm glad in Australia we only learn European history.

What is he basing this opinon on

Considering 90% of college liberals have a 4th grade reading level and don't know the difference between monarchy and dictatorship, I feel as if the majority of Sup Forums does in fact know more history

Working archaeologist here, teach yourselves history, I hardly learned a thing in college, read Will Durant then branch off into specific periods that interest you. There is no excuse for not knowing your people's history.

but that's true, most of this board doesn't have more than basic knowledge of history, if that

>he's can't derive the history of mankind and politics with his own intellect and instead takes pride in his baby tier knowledge
As expected of a brainlet.

I find that pretty hard to believe

no one in my history classes at uni knew shit

What is a College Liberal anyway? Is that like a democrat who isn't black or hispanic?

Firstly Keynesian economics is complete meme communist economics and is just propaganda to brainwash idiots. Austrian school is excellent however it is very macro so not that useful for businesses.

Stop reading meme economists who get paid by (((universities))) and governments. Start reading the writings of actual investors who have made money like Ben graham and buffet. They will tell you that history is crucial in predicting the future and their 15% to 20% compound annual growth rate supports them

I am now picturing the intellect of a man who posts his inner monologue ona croporate controlled advertising platform and takes pictures of individual pieces of said monologue and shows them to others, hoping they will touch buttons to release his dopamine sooner. It's a grand tragedy that people come out of the meat grinder of modern society and perform these auto-erotic acts.

So what, do you have abrand? books to sell? That's cool. But your brand is like, whining? How does this elevate your status? Is this what you wanted as a child? Do you even know who you are any more? Did you ever?

College kids are fucking idiots

There's another one where women agree that women's suffrage is bad... which would be great if they understood that women's suffrage isn't women's suffering

thanks for posting again Montenegro kike so I can filter you once more

I do both

a liberal in the US is a progressive democrat, or as i like to call them socialist on the verge of communism

Happen to remember the friend's reasons?

History is written by the victors. The history people learned from school was part brainwashing.

Why every Israel Anti Boycott Act thread gets locked?

How about that Dutch Tulip speculation in 1637 that caused a Tulip bubble that burst.

I know the Nazis existed from 1920 to 1945. Most college idiots I know don't even know when the war even started.

>Hurrdurr December 7st, 1941 Of course you Nazi. Get punched.

Sup Forums on average doesn't know much and can be incredibly ignorant on a few things (especially amerilards) but the claim that 90% of us are less educated on history and politics than the average college liberal is absolutely laughable and demonstrably false

>90%
>probably
hmm

I know a lot about history and a little about USA.
I know for a fact that Roosevelt was more naive than a fucking child.
He thought that West can be friends with Gommunism :DD, he did not know that 'selling' eastern europe to USSR would be one of the reasons behind cold war.

i know a lot
USA fought England in WW1 and became free
USA won WW2 against Germany and the USSR and China after nuking Nankang
Ben Franklin was our 2nd and best president because he freed the slaves

Sup Forums has actually taught me a shit ton about history and world politics.

I had to educate a high school history teacher the other day on the Yugoslavia split, the normalization of Czechoslovakia, etc.

>Using 4chanese lingo outside of Sup Forums

I did not expect that reaction to Israel in California at all

Lol, 90% of Sup Forums is probably more educated on history and politics than the average college liberal.

I read shit loads of politics. I'd say I probably have a better grasp of history than 80% of my country but that isn't saying much considering how well the history revisionists have gotten their claws in.

i dunno, seems like there's a lot of LGBT faggots on Sup Forums

>Most college idiots I know don't even know when the war even started.
I laugh every time I point out that England and France declared war on the Germans, and got their asses handed to them....so they called us crybabying because they made a very poor military decision.
