You mean aside from the Mali, the Songhai, the Zulu, and the Maasai?

What did any of these contribute to the world and human advancement?

Lacks any proofs or methodology. It's pure rhetoric

>baby's first existential crisis
embrace it faggot

Dunno about Nietzsche but when I say that someone is a good psychologist I mean that they have a good intuitive understanding of human nature, not that they have scientific interest in studying it.
Otherwise I would have to say that Freud is a good psychologist and that would be wrong.

>>2997604
That is the point, Dostoevsky completely rejects the idea of human nature except our being Christ's image. His psychology is about individual nature, personal freedom, lack of any general scheme governing human behavior

>>2997619
That doesn't change the fact that he has a good intuitive understanding of human nature.

i dont get it. something to do with predestination?

The joke is that Arminius wasn't a Calvinist, he was an Arminian, but since he's in heaven now with perfect theology, he's a Calvinist.

hmm..is that funny if you're a calvinist or something?

Pic related. Check it, it's legit.

That one jew's history-of-the-world comic.

That's so insightful my dude. No one has ever even come close to the level of enlightenment you're on.

Allah just means God in Arabic, mate. Christian Arabs also say allah

This.

The Trinity and the Islamic God are not the same, though

And while we're at it, Rasputen was obviously a time traveler but that's classified info against us the common folk.

Use the Gutenberg press to create a series of trading cards that will make me so famous I will be elected ruler by acclamation.

I'd get the Sassanids and the Byzantines to stop being dumbasses and warring each other all the time, thus by the time the Rashidun Caliphate is established, they both will be able to fight back against the mudslimes, saving the Middle East, North Africa and Central Asia from Islamic rule.

Japanese hegemony over perceived lesser peoples in an economically abusive relationship is a nice worldview. The Japs were ruthless and tapped into their natural suicidal autist tendencies for nothing

I was just thinking "now's a good time for another hitler thread"

Because he was German.

>runs for chanchellor of Germany

didnt he give up the idea of eternal reccurence?

>flat circle
How can a two dimensional figure be anything other than flat ?

How can time even be represented as circle ? What is the radius supposed to represent ?

>>2997293
>What is the radius supposed to represent ?
space

read 2 of his books, bought a 3rd book to try and understand one of them better and it was harder than the book itself. its very complex stuff at times, and without reading at least a few hundred pages of his you have no hope to even guess at his thoughts, his videos, interviews etc are simplistic in comparison. i still cant tell you if he is good, not read enough of his stuff but he is interesting and his books did challenge my mind.
I would say however, you cant really understand any mans philosophy without being at least the same age as when he wrote it. Age changes the mind over your life, you cant expect to be 20 and really understand someone who is 50 with somethnig like this.

I've read The Indivisible Remainder, as well as a number of his works on Lacan.com

I think his stuff is pretty straightforward, I take issue with all the doom and gloom and ebin psychoanalytic reversals of everything but I think 90% of his ideas are right on. Is there anything you have trouble with? Or something that particularly interests you? I'm tired of memes

What the fuck does he mean by "ideology"?

>>2997164
Humans wouldn't exist. Completely different species and biomes.

>>2997164
Depending on your position, there are two options.
1. Humanity does not exist and therefore nothing matters
2. Humanity does exist but numerous civilizations are stunted in weird ways due to the lack of an Egypt or North Africa. Although trade between Asia and Europe is much larger

>>2997164
Le humans wouldn't exist because they came from africa :DDDD

Memes aside, the entire world would be drastically different since Rome wouldn't be be able to project as much power due to lack of the Mediterrarean sea and such, lack of Carthage. Egypt disappearing means our alphabet will probably derive from the Sumerians/Akkadians and I guess you would be missing some of the Bible's mythos. Blacks not existing means Europeans and Americans would have to look at another source of slave labor and the Civil War would no longer have happened.

Truman was talking about bait and bleed strategies.


I don't think only entering in the war fully after years of supplying the allies after being attacked directly is really being a greedy opportunist though,

>>2997183
A bit of both, but Germany was 100% in the wrong.

Has there ever been a single time in history when the United States is not an opportunist bastard?

I think not, so, no. The United States helped the Soviets just to play the cat and the mouse with them. If they were really so anti-communist they would have let Hitler make the Soviets porridge.

>>2997111
Your first mistake is assuming you most do something because Marcus Aurelius had the personal idea to do so.

Second, it doesn't mean DON'T listen to music, it means take into consideration how other people go about giving in to pleasures.

Welcome. Glad to see someone else interested in philosophy on this board who isn't just a spookposter.
