Neoliberalism brings economic prosperity.

Economy is a spook. People need happiness, however they get that through money so that's why it's necessary.

investment grade, controlled inflation, access to markets etc.

Well, technically it only took a day to add in the celestial bodies according to scripture. After the Earth was made. The Jews in caves writing this shit obviously didn't know about time and space, matter and energy, so they didn't offer an explanation.

No, but I know the score
Need me to fall down so you can climb up
Some fool-ass ladder. Well, good luck.

The Christian explanation would be something along the lines of "well, time was measured differently then" or "our time doesn't apply to god"

the real explanation is that g*d doesn't exist

Bumping this. Last city I was in I was going to the orchestra every week or two when the season tempo was up but I have not yet got the chance to go to a ballet performance yet, now I'm in the middle of nowhere I have to live vicariously through others.

1/?

>Are Russian ballet companies better than other nation's ballet companies?

The Bolshoi is an excellent company, Marinsky used to be great but is now ruined by politics, and other than that Russian companies are not especially noteworthy. There are some very hit-and-miss Russian companies (Russian National Ballet Theatre and Moscow Festival Ballet) that tour around the USA doing performances to pre-recorded music that are either serviceable or horrid, depending on the day.

>Have you seen any ballets live? Which ones?

Yes! Quite a few considering that ballet is hard to come by in my area. There was a dry spell of almost 8 years where no professional companies outside of a touring Nutcracker came around, though in the past few years ballet is once again incorporated as a regular part of the opera theater season. Notably, I've seen ABT's reconstructed Sleeping Beauty, Houston Ballet's Giselle (the pre-Welch version), ABT's Whipped Cream, Hamburg Ballet's Nutcracker, and I just saw ABT's Giselle with Sarah Lane which was one of the best theater experiences of my life. Aside from those performances, I try to catch whatever shows the local ballet company is putting on. They recently got some government funding through an arts endowment program and it showed in their new costumes, sets and expanded production. If they'd just stop using copyrighted character names and occasionally even music (what are they thinking???) they could

And other than live, I've seen a metric ton of pre-recorded ballet performances, both the ones that come out on DVD and the streamed live Bolshoi performances.

>How do you feel about current trends in the ballet world?

Depends on the trend! I love the reconstructed ballets that have been appearing in the past 10 years or so.

>>2891775
>Any unpopular opinions?

Does "I can't stand Misty Copeland's poor performances but I appreciate what she's done for the ballet world in terms of getting butts in the seats" count? She's going to be Juliet in 2 out of 4 shows when they bring Romeo & Juliet here next year and I'm hoping that by the time tickets go on sale to the public, they'll have the cast list up so I can avoid seeing her. The thought of having to watch an entire ballet where she's cheered to the rafters for mediocrity is not fun. It was bad enough seeing her dance Florine in Sleeping Beauty, though at least in that case I got to enjoy the barely constrained looks of annoyance on the other dancer's faces while they watched.

Also, people often talk about the Bolshoi Ballet being rife with corruption but its just as true for American companies, ie, the American Ballet Theatre. Dancers with sponsors get promoted despite not being able to perform the basic moves principal roles are expected to do, while other dancers are ignored for principal promotion again and again. And shit directors will often bring in guest dancers who have sponsors rather than choose people from their own company. Did you know that this season is the first time Gillian Murphy--GILLIAN. MURPHY.--has ever performed Giselle for ABT? That's a fucking tragedy.

A mostly free market with certain socialist elements, notably the nationalization of key industries and the shut-down or censure of any industry that harms the Nation.

>>2890787
That's not corporatism at all. That's fucking social democracy.

>>2890779
OP the idea of corporatism is that the entire economy is integrated into the totalitarian state. Not in the sense of a centrally planned economy but rather all industries are organized into singular bodies subordinate to the government but also through which the industry at large can be represented within the government. Hence the term "corporatism". The entirety of the nation both in state and in economy functions together as one body.

Reminds me of mercantilism.

He also ruled a bunch of gauls who spoke broken versions of latin.

What is this thread

>>2890325
It's a true double edged sword.

Well, wasn't that pretty predictable anyway?
I'm sure the trick lies in that 'mostly'. The ones who use it in another ways are actually somewhat improving the system, but you can't honestly expect this to be done en masse

>>2890325
That's what happens when there's no standards and everything is unfiltered

Beer founded civilization.
>Grow wheat.
>Eat bread to supplement nuts, berries, and game.
>Get whole family to grow wheat.
>Enough bread we can just live in this one place now.
>Get clan to grow wheat.
>We've got so much wheat, we can afford to turn some of it into beer!
>Get village to grow wheat.
>We have so much excess wheat, we HAVE to turn some of into beer.
>Build cities devoted to growing wheat.
>Half of the wheat harvested by the early Mesopotamians was fermented into beer.

It made leaders and/or commanders think boldly. It really did, and still does, play a massive part in our history.

>>2890320
Keep in mind it helped us survive too. Weak beer was safer to drink than water a lot of the time.

In for potentially interesting thread. Personally I'm stumped but I can agree Uni students a thick as shit lol, it's actually worrisome.

Humanities will be moved to secret clubs of neckbeards who do nothing but to hate the jews.

Our future is a bright one

>>2889994
How can so many young students be so passionate about politics? I can never get that kind of enthusiasm.
