lymnli Posted June 11, 2007 Share Posted June 11, 2007 well, Earth is a beautiful place full of wonderful and exciting little facts. its time to share your own knowledge or even what you researched to tip.iters! Be free to disscuss and/or post your own little facts (or make it seem true lol) to start the disscusions i would like to talk about the irony of fascism Did you know that facist leaders/ their countries never actually won any war since it was created by Mussolini in 1919? Mussolini facists countries are militaristic which means they use a mighty armed force to control, terrorize and create a nationalistic identity for its people (hitlers grand assemblies) Grand Marches of Hitler But, they never won wars, only battles (early in the WW2). From WW2 (japan, germany and italy were considered facist at that time), which the allies won, to the last facist war- Falklands where Britain crushed Argentina "The death of one man is a tragedy. The death of millions is a statistic." -Joseph Stalin <(--=\\ CHAMILITARY MAYNE //=--)> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lymnli Posted June 11, 2007 Author Share Posted June 11, 2007 Did you know that by constantly dripping water one a person's forehead can drive them insane? Source i ve heard this before, kinda scary and shocking that water can do so much. btw i am chinese and ancient china is VERY interesting...... *build wall around themselves* while Europeans explore...even the greatest civilizations make stupid mistakes and do cruel stuff like water torture =S "The death of one man is a tragedy.

assassin_696 Posted June 11, 2007 Share Posted June 11, 2007 Okay, on the theme of political ideologies... No true communist state has ever been established, anywhere. It has never gone beyond the establishment of the temporary government which just ends up being ruled by a single dictator.

xvillexvalox Posted June 11, 2007 Share Posted June 11, 2007 Did you know "Shiver me timbers" was a phrase used by pirates to invite others to fight? The phrase was created because when there would be a battle, "shivers" would come out of the boats "timbers". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Caxis Posted June 11, 2007 Share Posted June 11, 2007 Did you know that by constantly dripping water one a person's forehead can drive them insane? Source I saw this on Mythbusters. They had two tests, Adam would be on a comfy recliner with water dripping on his head, and Kari was bound to a table with wristbands and a thing to keep her head immobile; with water dripping on her head. They concluded that the bindings were the big reason why the torture made people go insane.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Satenza Posted June 11, 2007 Share Posted June 11, 2007 Did you know that Mussolini erradicated the mafia's active existance in Italy, it was then later re-established by America during the war who provided it with money to help the war effort. With so many trees in the city you could see the spring coming each day until a night of warm wind would bring it suddenly in one morning. Sometimes the heavy cold rains would beat it back so that it would seem that it would never come and that you were losing a season out of your life. But you knew that there would always be the spring as you knew the river would flow again after it was frozen. When the cold rains kept on and killed the spring, it was as though a young person had died for no reason. In those days though the spring always came finally but it was frightening that it had nearly failed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Viktorkrum77 Posted June 11, 2007 Share Posted June 11, 2007 Did you know... Dogs do see color, they especially see blue and yellow. Dogs cannot see red through green. Dogs see 6x worse than humans, they have no eye for detail. For depth, what we would see looking 75 feet, would be kinda like a dogs perception but of only 20 feet, they don't see depth. Dogs can see each individual frame of a television flash by. Dogs see motion much better than humans (reason for TV fact above). This may be why they tend to flinch a lot, or why they are scared of things that you spin around. Dogs can register what car of yours is pulling into the driveway 100% based on its sound.

Smith = Family had blacksmiths Taylor = Family had tailors. Etc. But that only works for some last names. I'm assuming that you only mean English last names, so I'm not going to mention foreign last names. But take Brown. Want to tell me what a brown is? And cookie pl0x. And...

hohto Posted June 11, 2007 Share Posted June 11, 2007 Did you know that national socialism is different to facism, even tho they are sadly now used as synonyms. First national socialist parties came before 1900s and the word facism was first time used few decades after that. Note that Hitler did not invent national socialism as far too many tend to believe. Did you know that the "communist" regime managed to kill at least tens, probably hundreds of millions people more than the radical rightwing parties. Stalin 20-60m (source) Mao 40-70m (wikipedia) Pol Pot 25-33% of his own nation The list is endless. http://www.gmu.edu/departments/economic ... qframe.htm btw....

I was referring to your little picture you put up, basically saying America is a fascist nation. And seeing as the US has won wars... well you can put two together.
