That is really a curry-IQ response.
I disagree. Much more than "the free market" has been at work in Western culture over the last century or so.
Doesn't mean shit you arent an average Indian, 'free market' and capitalism only benefits richfags and your likes only. Life was much better in license raj.
You believe a nationalist curry revisionist "historian"? You really have no idea who is trustworthy, do you?
Like I said before, WWII is the best attested episode of human history. So you are disposed to believe a nationalist curry "historian" but you disbelieve the thousands of Western historians and archivists who, after the war, built the mountain of documentary evidence that we have about what the Nazis did. It is not your reason that is leading you in that direction, it is your masturbation.
A pyramid is the easiest stone building you can think of because there are zero tricky stress buildups anywhere in one. A Roman aqueduct or a medieval cathedral is far harder. The only major thing that needs to be taken care of is to check that the top of each layer of stone is level. There are many simple techniques to do that which were well within their capacity (plumb bobs, water-levelling, etc) . Other than that, building a pyramid is just a matter of brute force (or rather labor force), which is not particularly difficult if you have the kind of agricultural surplus that the Nile valley makes possible. I really don't see what is so mysterious here.
They were just pursuing their real interest. How can my business be safer? How can I make a little more money to be more secure? How can I satisfy more customers? Innovation will follow naturally when everyone is looking after their REAL interest.
They did not think of it that way. Their masturbational urges were satisfy by religion. Beyond that, they were just trying to better their own lot a little bit. No one had a global vision of "progress" during the industrial revolution. This concept was invented after the fact when it had become clear that progress had indeed occurred in hindsight.
Yes. You are just a prisoner of your own time and of the vapours of your own masturbation. This is why you cannot imagine people living in a healthier manner.
The worker's conditions were NOT abysmal. Again, in saying they were, your masturbational interest is making you choose to believe those who flatter your rebelliousness (and hence your claim to superiority). Why do you believe those who tell you that working conditions were abysmal and not those who tell you what happened during WWII? Why are you reacting differently to these 2 claims?
The Soviets beat the Americans in the early Space Race because:
And we are still here.
When people were still dying of hunger in the 1970s and malnutrition was a real issue for hundreds of millions of children?
Clauneck can tell you what coins to buy and when to sell.
The west needs to go back to paganism.
Ban bluepill pro system faggots please. Modern world is shit
90% of pagans are degenerate
Yes it is. Capitalism and socialism are two sides of the same modernist coin
Inferiors beings gonna inferior
wdym. Please elab
God Is real. Dunno if the God of christianity tho
Old world= corporatism (guilds), spiritualism
I think you are confusing "the right" with right-wing anarchism i.e. libertarianism.
I care less about who and more about whether one's argumentation sounds plausible. His reasoning seems quite solid to me. The fact only a single source written long after Euclid supposedly existed mentions his name is at the very least suspicious. The fact that that source is held by the Vatican gives some credence to the Hellenization claim. Wikipedia attests to these facts, so he can't entirely be pulling shit out of his ass.
Large organizations are often corrupt or negligent. E.g., governments, big pharma, the EU, academia, etc. I'd sooner trust a maverick with a plausible story than muh collective. Esp. if several mavericks are saying the same thing. What does a random bloke stand to gain by going against the grain if he ain't trying to sell you snake oil? Chasing clout by making up plausible lies trying to appeal to a niche? I'll take my chances.
Okay, so they were seeking betterment on an individual level rather than a collective level? Would that really change my point?
I can imagine them living somewhat healthier. Just not quite that healthily.
don't ask how tho
Sure. Everything that doesn't align with your narrow vision is "masturbationally motivated" by design, so that's hardly a surprise.
You have lots of opinions about lots of things and yet you confess having little familiarity with history, and of course, next to no real-life experience.
Nobody has any real familiarity with history. Merely with its few artefacts that remain. And to do that properly, one would have to study the primary sources, which are very hard to access. Even if you can get your hands on it (or a scan or copy or whatever) there's the lingual barrier.
What choice do I have?
I don't doubt it.
Should falling for a (common) misconception or myth make me lose confidence in myself? Because it's having the opposite effect. I don't fully get to the bottom of something and of course it turns out to be wrong again. In my mind, all this proves is that I can't blindly rely on anyone else. Yet, I can't get to the bottom of everything, nor can I really be fully agnostic about virtually everything. I have to have a modicum of trust and even that iota of trust keep getting whittled away.
I wish I could get a cushy office job like women have where they don’t do anything
if only I could be an affirmative action hire
Seriously though it’s like the fucker who asked to define woman who said “I’m not a biologist”. SERIOUSLY RETARD you don’t have to be formally educated in something to grasp what’s obvious in front of your face. These people are crazy. *Also to clarify not saying you’re a retard I’m saying that woman from the clip is.
Retardation. Pure bs. The average person is becoming more and more depressed, lonely, suicidal, with no money,no family and disenfranchised then ever. Jacobine, jew liberal cocksucker should be banned
Any day now the normies will have finally had enough and storm the Bastille and finally real change will usher in!!! lol
Well the "right" emerged from french revolution. The right was the one who was ok with the new status quo aka freedom while the left wanted one step further toward equality/egalitarianism. At the end of the day they both adhere to the same political system. That's why fascism and third positionism in theory was as opposed to USA as it was to USSR (basically the two modernist empires)
The "right" that existed just after the French Revolution was Legitimist or Bonapartist (in France). The Legitimists were supporting a return of the Bourbon dynasty, who were not particularly fond of liberty. The Bonapartists, for their part, were theoretically a little more open to it (as a kind of lip service) but were in fact for an authoritarian regime. These 2 right-wing currents existed throughout the XIXth century.
It was not the right we know of. Even Rome had somehow conservatives and populars but it was nowhere near what right and left use to mean since French revolution
Even since the French revolution the Left/Right divide was NEVER about equality vs. freedom.
Which should be telling because now we all are looking towards the past and it’s glory instead of the future because it’s bleak.
Exactly this. So while society is a failed experiment, it is one that normies desire. I've tried explaining to them human motives, the nature of give-and-take, that not everyone is like them, and it never works out. They will cling to their value judgements, the desire to do and believe whatever they want, until they slam themselves into the grave. I think it is telling there are normies stories of a benevolent tyrant giving the protags a perfect life, then the protags revolt and destroy everything, because they'd rather be free to pursue happiness than have happiness. They can't be saved and did not ask to be saved.
I get the feeling it's mostly rejects looking towards the past, but maybe I'm wrong.
Yeah for real
The only people looking forward towards the future are boomers, women, and leftists who profit and benefit from this shit society at large but they’re too stupid to realize they’re the problem at hand.
Ain't anyone who ain't a boomer, woman or woketard basically a reject?
Pretty much tbh
I hate the job I have currently and my general lot in life so much I actively think about killing myself every day. Life doesn’t have to be like this, but we have no power to change a thing at an individual level.
Oh for sure. If I could start my life over knowing what I do now I would this minute. I basically have little other than regrets.
Imo it’s a genuinely interesting debate. Technology and some aspects of modern life such as modern medicine and plumbing are fantastic. If you get your bills under control then you probably won’t starve so that’s good.
I’m just tired lads. You work hard and for what? This life is so far from “human flourishing”, a lot of people make good choices and work hard but get nowhere and end up being abused on the bottom of some shitty corporate structure and by the people around them. It ain’t worth it. God I wish I could NEET but I’d never get on neetbux because they really only give those out to single mothers and seriously heinously crippled people here.
Damn nigga you sure you can't? I'm on neetbux in the United Cuckdom.@BornToLose Yeah, it really do be like that
It's nice to see someone on here who knows him. Probably one of the greatest thinkers of all time.

Red state so I’m afraid not
Just relocate to a cuck state theory.
High IQHalf of it is because our society sucks. The other half is because the West is declining.
People in countries like China and Vietnam are looking forward to the future because to many of them, their recent past sucked, whether it be forced collectivization or civil war.
People in America look back to the 1950s-1990s with fondness because they know they'll never be able to go back to that time when America was on top, when people were more united (with some exceptions), and when the middle class had grounds for optimism instead of being stagnant.
Today, many Western communities are stagnant or declining, whether it be the Boy Scouts, the churches and Christianity, or in-person groups in general. The West has been drained of its real content, including its manufacturing capacity, and many of us sense that something different is coming, whether it be financial hell, chaos, or totalitarianism.
It's nice to see someone on here who knows him. Probably one of the greatest thinkers of all time.
It depends on the country in question, but in America, lots of people look towards the past.Americans take a dim view of the nation’s future, look more positively at the past
When Americans look ahead to 2050, they see a country that in many respects will be worse than it is today.
I’ll have to check but usually they have some clauses about working actively beforehand for some time so they try to prevent moving to get on neetbux. If it were easy to get on welfare for the long haul here tons of people in my boat would be doing it. I’ll check though it’s been sometime since I looked up the rules. The other stipulations seem to be that you don’t have family that will let you stay or savings iirc but again it’s been awhile since I looked closely. During COVID they seemed to relax a lot of that stuff but it’s back to normal now iirc. What I won’t ever do is fraud because that’s real legal hot water/legal action territory.
Yeah there's always protocols tbf. I was lucky I got on it just before Covid and no one has been arsed to check up on me since.
That’s Incredible. Yeah, I was searching around about it now and what my state does have is temporary only and you basically have to have kids lol. For permanent neetbux you have to have a serious and documented disability that would prevent you from working so they structure it to really make people take garbage wagie jobs.
Tbf I do have a history of mental illness. That's the way to get neetbux for one of us.
Oh I’m pretty sure everyone on this board genuinely has mental illness due to abuse and isolation/mistreatment all our lives. The issue is getting a governmental body to recognize such a thing. Glad it worked out for you man, low status ugly men definitely deserve a helping hand since unlike women nobody is feel bad for us or lend a helping hand.
Oh yeah of course the foids will get their (denied by them) privilege. I'm just lucky I got diagnosed with OCD and depression in my youth (as a millennial speaking).
