I've always said this. Whenever Christcucks try to talk about how they're the bastions of morality keeping the barbarians at bay, I point to Joseph. Jesus was literally his wife's son. The children he had with Mary did nothing of note.

How were monarchies able to last 1000s of years but dictatorships no more than a few decades?

Aren't both of them ruled by just one popular leader?

Kingdoms: divine right of kings, hereditary, hierarchic societies.

Dictatorships: a layman is in charge, hard to connect with the country's past rulers, almost impossible to configure as a dynasty, society has already tasted democracy and liberalism.

>Dictatorships are relatively new, as non-monarchism only catched on after the french revolution

>Dictatorships have a tendency to self-destruct by declaring war on other nations (see hitler)

>Dictatorships run into crises when the dictator dies because there is no clear heir (see franco)

North Korea is the closest thing we have right now to a long-lasting dictatorship, and even that nation is slowly turning into a monarchy.

Why is circumcision so important in the Torah? God could have came up with literally any other flesh covenant, like a brand on your chest or something. Why was his first thought "remove the extra skin on your penis"?

And they are trash.

>Some say, "history is a bunch of meaningless fragments." Well, that's not what I see. History is a story, it's a narrative and it's our obligation as teachers to try to pull together all the disparate parts—to try to give the students a coherence, a core sense of the cohesiveness of history.

Thoughts?

I don't think history is a narrative. There are narratives within history, you can tell a story about a specific person, place or thing, but any attempt to contextualize the entirety of human experience into a singular story sounds like whig history.

>>2670804
History is a narrative if you believe in religion, or if you think history is the story of human advancement and progression

What does /his/ think of Glubb's The Fate of Empire and Search for Survival?
Do modern historians take his theories seriously?
His views has altered my perception of events and perhaps it might be confirmation bias but I'm seeing the signs of decadence everywhere.

It's nonsense strongly influenced by 19th century and its ideology. It's not even a scholarly work. There are no references, no bibliography, nothing.

Are revolutions and revolts harder in the modern time than they were in the past?
7 posts and 3 images submitted.
>>
>>2670721
Yeah. There is no way you can have a revolt in a first world country. It's still really hard in third world shitholes too.
>>
Its complicated. I would say, in a nutshell, that it is definitely easier to organize movements thanks to social media and other technological developments. You can cause greater impact. Furthermore, we live in much greater comfort nowadays and so we can sustain longer protests and it helps quite a lot, at least in western countries, we have the right to do such.

However, ironically, precisely because the state doesnt directly fight movements, theres less chance of them becoming radicalized, unless, as we saw in Romania and Serbia, shits really bad. So theres a greater threshold movements have to surpass for them to become what we know from the 19th century, revolutions.

Another complicating factor is that just as technology helps movements, it helps govt too. They can much more quickly catch up and understand the situation to control it. Be it saying the right words on TV or radio, or (in cases where corruption has infected the market), monopolies on media and transports can effectively shut down any sort of public organization. Of course, those two last must be done subtly, and over the course of an extended period of time. If executed harshly, it will only feed the flames and further push the movement over the needed threshold for things to get violent.

I believe that I should mention again that my arguments have in mind the western world, which I believe is the region you are most probable living in.

Perhaps one could itemize the reasons as to why this may be the case?

The extremely prolific military and police forces maybe a factor, but it seems to me that'd be a non-issue, and indeed, perhaps a boon, should one garner enough of them to one's cause.

Media control in first world nations, however, is fairly insidious, with its ability to break people into smaller and more divisive factions, none of which trust one another and each fearing the other taking power, and each accusing the other of backing, what are often in reality, mutual enemies.

At least in most developed nations that seems to be the state of things - the divide and conquer efforts by the leadership, but deliberate and incidental, has created too much fragmentation for any single revolutionary movement to have much in the way of cohesion.
