I just like him for his explanation of the state of nature, and his account of WHY people take part in a civil society. Essentially his explanation of the social contract.

yes, better thaught

positives: more emphasis on automatic and semiautomatic weapons
negatives: not embracing machine-gun doctrine

>>3107699

because he was a drug addled poofter manlet

>>3107271
Why would he demote himself like that?

he was more a clerk than a kaiser, also his military rank was plebeian

I want to unironically witness the triumph and announcement of the formation of the German Empire under the Kaiser in the hall of mirrors

What if we don't count missile weapons, so no horse archers? Who are the best light cavalry units that rely specifically on maneuverability and melee weapons to succeed at their tasks?

Uhlans.

I like these maps from Peter Zeihan because they show where civilizations tend to spring up just by looking at land quality.

Bump.

None. Anybody that says they are atheist but believes in these primitive concepts are lying to you about being atheist. Being an atheist means you have evolved, you no longer grasp to those troglodyte concepts of spirits and sky daddies.

Reason, not faith

What do you want your Latin for?

>>3106667
The only major difference between Classical and Medieval Latin is pronunciation.

>>3106684
Medieval text reading i.e. Norman Invasion-15th century. I'm just wondering if Classical latin would be a better place to start

It's because we like to idealise god

A supreme universal being ugly/indescribable makes more sense though.

Grace and exstasis have always been linked to a sense of divinity as well as a pure sense of beauty.

I'm not a Christian but I have read C.S. Lewis and his response to this question literally boils down to "don't worry about it." Not joking.

Retard?

It never occurred to you that dating methods are erroneous? That there is no "standard" to check to see if your 300,000 year old dating method is accurate?

That never occurred to you?

It never occurred to you that if humans were around for 300,000 years, that there would be an infinite number of human beings at any positive growth number, and zero at any negative growth number?

None of these things occurred to you?

It isn't shadey, it's just pointless and circular.

Northern Ireland provides the perfect example.

>Man that thing loyalists are doing is fucking shitty
>But what about the IRA?

It's either

>How is that relevant?
or
>They are also fags

Neither continues the debate or accomplishes anything other than likely starting an argument about whether or not either party is biased.

Whataboutery isn't a "logical fallacy" it's just retarded and 99% of the people who say "but what about" in a historical debate are usually retards with absolutely no clue what they're talking about.

>>3106690
This.

Though OP's example was well thought out and logically sound, these two things almost never occur in an arguement on the internet.

it's called tu quoque, not "whataboutism"

dumb fucking millenials

Those are neither similar or mean the same thing.

Wolof is Niger-Congo, whereas Egyptian is Afro-Asiatic, so they're not actually related. My guess is these are "false friends", although some could have plausibly drifted from one side of Africa to the other.

Catholicuck

>What were his views on race/ethnicity?
Didn't gave a fuck. We're not a racially divided country like USA.

No.

>What were his personal views on religion?
He was a roman catholic but freedom of religion was respected.

>What were his views on race/ethnicity?
Chile is a mongrel country and he himself was mixed.

>>3106402
>Did he particularly dislike a particular race/ethnic group/religion?
Like all of the armed forces he probably disliked the argies, peruvians and bolivians. However he was insanely popular with the injuns.

Complementing >>3106432

Let's see. First of all Pinochet always wanted to look intellectual, but everyone knew he was not. I had the habit of collecting old books to look like a scholar, but it was only a staging. He even plagiarized a book called "Geopolitics" and many more, which can be found only in the libraries of the ultra conservative universities of my country (For example, The University of the Andes, affiliated with Opus Dei)
His work never had an ideological backing, it was the general of the president's army that he vowed to protect. He is basically a glorified opportunist.

Now, do you want to know who the ideologue of the Chilean military government is? Not a single person, but an interdisciplinary team of experts who designed and implemented an economic and social model in a coherence-controlled environment. They also saw an opportunity and took it, with the difference that they did not betray anyone.

1. Jaime Guzmán. He wrote the (in)famous 1980 constitution.
Everyone considers it a work of art. Anti-democratic, rejected by Jaime Guzman's mentor, Alessandri Rodriguez, basically Guzman made the rules to change the rules and taking advantage of the future interests of the governors, is virtually indestructible, because those who can withdraw it do not want and those who want can not. In April of 1991 he was shot to death by an ultra reactionary wing of the Revolutionary Left Movement (MIR), consider it an RAF located close to the Arctic and with Cuban support. But it is also rumored that he was ordered murdered by "Mamo" Contreras, chief of intelligence of the military government, because Guzman tried to save leftists from detention camps, motivated by his extreme Catholicism.
