So what exactly causes revolutions to happen exactly?

Most People are pretty aphetic if their freedoms are taking away and forced to live in police states. Happened in Nazi Germany, Soviet Russia and North Korea and people didn't seem to have a problem with it.

So what is the breaking point that will force even the normies to revolt?

You can't just group revolutions together, Anon. What happened in England is different from what happened in France; what happened in America is different from what happened in Russia.

Zizek said they happen not when things are bad but when things go from bad to slightly better and I'm inclined to agree.

I don't see why so many people base morality on happiness in some form or another. It seems like an arbitrary connection. Am I just a retard for not seeing why happiness matters to morality or what?

If something doesn't produce happiness, then what is it good for? All that ultimately matters is muh feels. It's the only thing you can't choose not to care about.
>>
>>2596650
Even if it was the only thing we can't choose not to care about why would that mean it's all that matters and that we should base our morality system around it?
>>
>>2596719
>why would that mean it's all that matters
Because what "matters" is subjective. If I can dismiss something with "who cares?" then it doesn't really matter to me.

>and that we should base our morality system around it
Ultimately the decision of what to base ethics on is axiomatic, i.e. it is not itself a decision that can be justified by appeal to ethics. But if we want ethics to be a functional thing as opposed to meaningless, abstract wank, then basing it on something that's real and that we're hardwired to want and need seems like a fine idea.

So these guys managed to have complete control over literally MILLIONS of people and yet entirely failed in the endeavour to emancipate the average individual?

Why?

I understand the argument you're going to make, central planning doesn't work etc. and I get that, central planning lacks the data that is inherent to the market through the laws of supply and demand but still, is there any way in which they could have achieved something noteworthy?

What if Mao didn't go full retard? etc.

Don't you think it's at least interesting/fascinating that they managed to obtain such support from their people? How can we hope to achieve such a collective effort again without the disasters of dictators?

From an objective stand point, how much of the blame does he actually deserve fro world war 2?
22 posts and 3 images submitted.
>>
>>2596083
Most of it.
>>
>>2596083
I would say most of the blame should go to Wehrmacht officers who initially HATED Hitler.
>>
>>2596083
A political figure is merely a pawn used by the masses to use for either hate or love, sometimes both. In the few cases a leader does have power, it's usually considered a tyrannical who goes against the wishes of his people.

Quite contradictory to the media bias against the Nazis, Hitler was not a tyrant. He was a smart political figure who held more power than most of his time, but he went with the wishes of the German people rather than against them.

However, an entire country being evil propaganda would obviously not go so well, so instead, the media of the time just demonized Hitler and the Nazis claiming they were dictators who got their power from force.

Of course everyone knows pygmies and aboriginals are equals to Romans. Everyone is equal.

What a stupid topic. Obviously not. You are implying that every culture in the world progressed/advanced at exactly the same time as each other, which obviously isn't true. You can learn this from looking at history (or present day) for 2 minutes. How do you even begin to justify that every civilization has made equal contributions to mankind as a whole? Absolutely worthless thread. /r/ delete.
