"Sacrifice was practised across the Valley of Mexico, and Aztec warriors accepted that they might receive the ‘flowered death by the obsidian knife’ as their own likely, even desirable, destiny"

Those sacrificed here were war prisoners taken from other tribes. They were not Mexicah (Aztecs). They followed completely different deities and religion. There would be no reason for them to find any honor in being sacrificed to a foreign god.

Who even said it was all at one site except you?

The 80k number refers exclusively to one event specifically, the re-consecration of The Great Temple at Tenochtitlan.

It is in the post itself. You argue like you read, at elementary level.

Also, you never addressed the lack of archaeological evidence to back the 80k sacrifices over 4 days claim. There simply is none.

It is simply logistically implausible to capture, mobilize, slaughter and dispose of such a large number of people, let alone leave no mass graves or at least a sizable ash layer (if cremated).

If you argue this poorly against someone who agrees with you, you will be handed your ass when you find real opposition.

Done and done.

Those captured wanted to be sacrificed...

There is no evidence that this is true at all. The Mexicah were universally hated by other mesoamerican tribes, and it is unlikely that these men would have been happy about being sacrificed to a deity from a completely different religion.

there were 16 - especially since 5k x 16 is 80k.

Yes, there was certainly more than one site, much more likely more than 16. The 80k number however is clearly for one temple at one location, during its consecration.

Tenochtitlan is now at part of a massively populated region, Mexico City, and has been excavated and closely studied, and still no remains have been found to support this number.

Exaggeration just makes it easy to dismiss the key point: Aztecs routinely made human sacrifices in large numbers, and were not the innocent little lambs portrayed by new age liberal retards.

Also, done with this.

The total population of Tenochtitlan at the time was about 200k. That would mean a male military age (12-35) population of about 20k (10%) at best. That is just not enough to handle 80k prisoners, all of them military age men (the group typically captured through war for human sacrifice) without being overrun.

I point this out because it is an obvious exaggeration that is easy for "noble savage" advocates to dismiss and ridicule.

The reality is that the numbers were close to 4k-5k individuals, which is a fucking large number of people to murder over four days, by any standard.

Add to that that human sacrifice was an ONGOING activity and you get into the tens of thousands of people murdered for any one given year.

Spain could have solved their population issues by bringing in immigrants that speak their same language, have a similar culture, follow the same religion and are ethnically related to Spaniards.

But that is not the true objective. The true objective is to fragment and ultimately destroy the national identity and cohesion, to ensure easier enslavement and a lower standard of living.

Also, game characters accurately based on the proportions of an actual natural attractive female are "pornified", "fetishized" and "misogynist".

Women cheered and helped this gender idiocy thrive and fester.

Let them enjoy feminist intersectionality with a beating and a side of dick.

We have a clear example in our own history of what happens to the locals when mass migration occurs.

The new migrants cluster and take over, they do not integrate and instead they destroy and exterminate the locals.

We are now on the receiving end of colonization.

It never ends well for the natives.

"Bottom Surgery", if it is so harmless and innocuous, why do they have to hide what the actually surgeries are, behind a euphemism.

Call it what it is: surgical castration and hysterectomy.

But they don't think he is a God. He is not their Messiah

Yes, like early Christians, Muslims do not believe Jesus is God.

There are no passages in the Quran or the New Testament where Jesus refers to himself as God.

Like early Christians, Muslims do believe Jesus is The Messiah.

The Messiah, in both Islam and the Old Testament, is a man, not a divine creature.

They misunderstand who he is

Islam considers Jesus the Jewish messenger of God, but does not considers him divine.

Islam regards Jesus as al-Masih (The Messiah) and expects his second coming to wage war against the Anti Christ, side by side with the Mahdi.

After the war is won, Jesus will reign over the world in peace.

This is standard fare for Abrahamic religions.

Zionism is the doctrine that the Jewish people were entitled to an ancestral homeland in the location of the historic kingdom of the Israelites...

The very first proposed location for a Zionist State was "Ararat City" (NY, US).
