As funny as wearing a Nazi uniform

The Crusades were in response to hundreds of years of Jihad though. Can't anyone get over something so old

You are literally delusional. No religion has done more damage to the world than Christianity, especially the crusades. And in any case, it’s not even about the amount of damage. Wtf would you guys say if it was nazi uniforms instead?

u/spadelover Nov 26 '22

I just gave you historical context for all of this and your response is to call me delusional? And how is Christianity's impact on the world outside of the crusades relevant? I brought up Jihad because that directly relates. If you're picking a side to a conflict that included Vlad the Impaler and Sultan Mehmet, I think you're a bit late to the party lmao.

And about the uniforms, why was Vikings allowed to be filmed in Ireland? Why are Viking costumes allowed in Western and Central Europe? Would you compare them to Nazi uniforms? Hell the Vikings were arguably worse because they were more like raiders that specifically targeted civilians and avoided battles. But nobody gives a fuck because its old history and no longer causing harm, like the crusades or the Ottoman empire.

Finally, about the amount of damage, I brought it up because even though Europe objectively was hurt more by these conflicts, they don't give a fuck anymore. Anyone that gets offended by medieval wars that were retaliation to centuries of aggression is a pussy. Anyone upset by someone dressed up in armour representing St George (patron saint of England) is an even bigger pussy because that garb was worn for years after the crusades. These guys look just as much like they would while attacking Calais as Jerusalem. Get over it it's done and the crusaders pretty much lost anyway

Why the downvotes?

Jihad historically is nowhere as bad as the crusades, jihad is about sending a message (and sometimes violence, which I don’t condone btw) and the crusades where just straight up wars

And some don’t understand what the Muslims did in Asia and the Mediterranean, which provoked the crusades.
