Controversial General Political Discussion

[Ravagerblade]

This is a common myth propagated by the powers to keep people from really wanting to change the status co.

And yet why does it always seem to happen. Clearly there's more to it than just what you trying to imply.

Because some people don't listen to myth propagated by powers in place

Why is religion a topic in this thread? Most nations of the world of a divide between church and state.

Should I open a theology thread to discuss faiths?

There is one iirc, I found a religion thread while browsing through old threads a while ago

Radical views leading to violence.

This discussion here rn is not about religious beliefs, it's about the politicised nature of religion and actions committed in the name of religion .
The politics thread is the right thread.

Religion is boring, what is there to talk about?

 

[Bisoromi Bear]

Radical views leading to violence.

This goes both ways.
For example ,radical Christianity played a major factor in colonialism and genocides

Yeah, that is exactly my point

 

[Logiko]

Radical views leading to violence.

Not necessaraly.

(And i'm not talking about religion here)

There’s nearly endless topics to explore

Did you know that the fight for equal power for women was once seen as a radical view ?

 

[Bisoromi Bear]

A few centuries ago, the idea of democratic participation of "peasants"/the common folk was considered radical(in Europe) .

This is a common myth propagated by the powers to keep people from really wanting to change the status co.

Yet it nearly always happens.

In fact, some of the nicest-sounding ideas have led to most genocidal regimes.

Historically yeah, but when your philosophy boils down to “god is a the answer to everything” then it is boring

it’s like arguing with a conspiracy theorist who’s conspiracy is “they did it”

That just sounds like trying to hide behind an old and dated view... cliché like...
Also sometimes going too radical is a bad thing.

Where do you fall on iconoclasts and the Catholic/Orthodox split
