I recently learned a little bit about this guy and thought it very interesting how deep his traditionalis/conservatisim goes, above and beyond western rationalism and into eastern spiritual, transcendental stuff. What are your thoughts?

He was influential in some fascist thought, particularly for Evola. I think that has some relevance to fascist ideology on national origin and identity.

Can someone explain the difference between the two schools to someone inexperienced with economic theory. I only know that Keynesian is about government intervention, and Austrian is no intervention with a gold fetish.
Also what are some good books on economics for beginners.

If Jesus and God are one, and God is the Father, then does that mean that Jesus was both Mary's father AND son?

I don't understand.

If most medieval warfare was done on formation, like in past times, and people didn't break formation like retards to go on 1v1 fite me mode, then what was the point of 1v1 sword fighting techniques being taught to soldiers?

Most violence in medieval times was not done in organized wars and field battles, but in small scale.
A local feud, band of roving bandits, tavern brawl, and similar stuff was much more frequent. Also, some things simply where solved with sword fighting, judicial duels for example where common.

> Why didn't USA never expanded into the rest of the Americas, formally annexing more countries/regions as states?

Here's the thing - it very well could've. Indeed, the Confederacy had a plan in the case of victory to proceed and go and annex a large chunk of Latin America, creating the so-called "Golden Circle", to create a new economy powered by new slave states.

The path the Northern United States was headed on, the development of industry and manufacturing, was far less reliant on miltiary expansion for economy growth. There was not such an intense need for land to be tilled - because the economy increasingly diverged from agriculture.

The Americas was saved from cruel, harsh, Southern "Gentleman" penises by virtue of Northern, industrial, Neo-puritan pride - a change in the economy.

What made Rome different from other ancient city-states like Athens, Sparta or even Carthage that they could create such a long lasting and powerful Empire?
Also, all the other giant Empires were far more short-lived and collapsed quickly (Alexanders' Empire, Hunnic Empire, Mongol Empire, the Arab Empire also quickly divided itself) and the only comparable Empires I can think of are the Persian and Chinese ones... so what was the difference?

ruthlessness, they were hellbent on taking other ppls wealth

athens sparta and all that wanted to subdue other ppl for trade, romans were a bit like nazis, thinking they are better and romanized everything and everywhere, they must have liked to fuck alot since the losses they suffered havent mattered much as they could just raise yet another army when they were defeated

carthage is a good example, originally it was a far more influencal and powerful city state that projected its power across the sea but they were fine with ppl living in relative independance as long as they havent bothered trade, now romans on the other hand waged all their wars with total victory in their mind
>>
>>3173535
They actually weren't
Roman conquest early on was fairly lenient. No occupation or tribute, just a demand that they give Rome x amount of soldiers when asked.
Likewise for romanizing people. Until the social war, Roman citizenship wasn't given out to allies/subjects.

I like his conception of Marxism as a subclade of Anglo-American progressivism, that "Communism is as American as apple pie."

It's as if the Soviets, even with all their fanaticism, were really just understudies to the Eternal Anglo.
