But we had that, it' just that we don't have such a huge media machine to glorify those times. Also not a real individual drive to fap over those times.

>what are The Beatles, Bowie, Joy Division, glam rock, punk rock, post-punk, goth, new wave

Anglo countries have basically had a monopoly on mass media, though.

They were still recovering and building after WW2. The UK rationed well into the fifties.

That's only because they were giants. They were so great we masturbated solely to them for hundreds of years.

>Plato is always concerned to advocate views that will make people what he thinks virtuous; he is hardly ever intellectually honest, because he allows himself to judge doctrines by their social consequences. Even about this he is not honest; he pretends to follow the argument and to be judging by purely theoretical standards, when in fact he is twisting the discussion so as to lead to a virtuous result. He introduced this vice into philosophy, where it has persisted ever since. It was probably largely hostility to the Sophists that gave this character to his dialogues. One of the defects of all philosophers since Plato is that their inquiries into ethics proceed on the assumption that they already know the conclusions to be reached.

>Plato possessed the art to dress up illiberal suggestions in such a way that they deceived future ages, which admired the Republic without ever becoming aware of what was involved in its proposals. It has always been correct to praise Plato, but not to understand him. This is the common fate of great men. My object is the opposite. I wish to understand him, but to treat him with as little reverence as if he were a contemporary English or American advocate of totalitarianism.

lmao

We only really know the meme entertainer Kanye, but I think if Evola met and spoke to Kanye as men he would express disgust in Kayne's encouragement and profit off of mindless consumerism.

>>2855452
>We only know the meme Kanye

Guess what music is?

I agree with the personality clash, but in terms of over all contribution to Evola's heroism given the realities of modern life I think he'd see Kanye as a rather great person. Especially for a 'negro'

What era?

After 1980, Pact loses. Before 1980, Pact wins. Simple as that.

>>2855064
But this is all assuming that it never went nuclear. Could the Warsaw Pact or NATO really win or lose if nukes are used on the battlefield? I guess this depends on if the nuclear exchange is only limited to the battlefield and its not outright total war involving nukes. I should have thought this through in regards to the era. Let's assume both eras. Before 1980 and after 1980.

A strictly conventional war would last many years and perhaps upwards of 100 million would die. The outcome would reply on whomever could acquire an advantage in the opening weeks.
Germany and the balkans would be lost definitely. The Soviet seven days to the rhine plan would have succeeded. NATO knew this too, and established defensive positions in France for the eventual Soviet wave.
The American heartland would be threatened by Soviet bombers that could be refitted with conventional munitions. American and Canadian interceptors would have likely diminished their effectiveness however. Ultimately Europe would be a lost cause. NATO would succeed in traditional scenarios however, as the Soviet navy would never be able to penetrate the north sea or the Mediterranean effectively. As well, American and Canadian assaults from the east, launching off of Japan and Alaska would have put the soviets on a two front war. The Canadian army specifically trained and still trains to this day for these kind of conditions.
The war would be cataclysmic and even more drawn out than previous wars. Neither the United States or the USSR would be majorly threatened by invasion, and Europe would be a proxy battleground for the entirety of the war. It would be attritional.

The dutch likely had every feature of capitalism (According to Marxist theory) developed in the 16th century, so it was pre industrial. One could argue that the same system worked as early as 14th century Italy.

This does however not cope well with Marxists for a variety of reasons, mostly because it shows that their theory has fundamental flaws in understanding history. More so because they see capitalism not as an evolved economic system that just builds on older economies and the natural behavior of humans, but according to them is something invented by Adam Smith.

market economy seems to be the standard for human economical behavior. have fun proving different.

Racial superiority

ARBEIT

From 1918 German economy was absolute shite. Nazis didn't change much by investing everybody on the military (Despite what their propaganda said). Things went up for Germans after they starter exploiting conquered lands.
After 1945 they recieved US money, which they invested to recover. They didn't had much of opponents on European market, France and Britain suffered decolonisation while eastern Europe was under Soviet subjection

Strangling Reparations without an upper Limit, Just pay Up until we feel like letting you off the hook

Should have listened to Wilson. Peace without Victory.

no it was not
European Powers had fought wars before, and never before had one nation (German Reich) been punished to this extent
paying reparations, yielding territory etc was common
but Germany was fucked beyond belief

this is not a defence of what Germany did later

>>2854465
erm, they did hate the nobles, check for the french revolution, will ya?

>>2854465
The poor because bourgeois used to be poor and now they act uppity
The rich because they know the bourgeois aim to take their place

>>2854465
>Why have people always hated the bourgeoisie?
Because people being successful makes other people envious and bitter.
>Why not hate the nobility who didn't have to work for their wealth?
Why hate a state of thing older than living memory? It's easier to accept something that always was than a new change. It's not a coincidence that new nobility was generally held in contempt.

It would be the other way around.

The north would become just like any other european nation currently in decline and the south would be the land of free market where even the federation has almost no power over what the locals decide.

That one video where the cartel members bashed and cut the guys face, eyes, and hands off and kept slicing him while his grotesque skeletal arm stubs tried to block it fruitlessly while he screamed in agony seemed worse

A Roman general, Marcu Atilius Regulus was captured by Carthaginians, he was sleep deprived for 2 weeks, then his eyelashes were cut off and they forced him to stare at the sun until he went blind, then they covered him with honey and let hundreds of wasps and bees stung him, then they put him inside of a barrel full of needles and let the barrels slide off a cliff, then he finally died.

The guy who (barely) survived the nuclear blast and was kept on life support to study the effect of radiation burns on people.

Hell, anyone who was crucified normally would also qualify, given that most take a couple of days to die, not a few hours. Rabbi Akiva was flayed over the course of about a day, that's pretty fucking awful. Probably more I don't know about.

Yes only boomers use the term. Everyone else just says blacks. Anything else to add before this thread gets 404d?

White people love this term for some odd reason?
