[Repost as the old thread died and I didn't get a closure.]

I recently made a DNA test. My father was from Sierra Leone and I found out something quite extraordinary: from his side of the family I had some Papuan and Native American from the Amazon. As we all know, these were not places from which people travelled to other countries or continents. How on earth could a Papuan from Oceania or an Amazonian from South America end up in Africa? These were all countries that were visited by the Portuguese who had slaves, right? Yet I'm not aware from which countries they had slaves from. I hope this will spark some interesting conversation. Thank you.

Can you please stop lying? Or if you are serious then you should just educate yourself. Millions of people died in the camps. In death camps mostly Jews, in concentration camps people of all ethnicities.

when Solon traveled to Egypt he visited Pharaoh of Amasis II and spoke with his priests Psenophis and Sonchis who told him of Egypt's founders. They spoke of their origin, a city that was consumed by the sea. We know this city as Atlantis. When did it sink? According to the Egyptians 9000 years before Solon's visit, which just happens to align with the end of the last ice age and the melting of the ice sheets which raised the ocean by more than 30 feet. Do you really think Egypt just came about overnight with an advanced knowledge of astronomy, construction, a deep level of philosophy and theology? or is it more possible that their civilisation was already old by the time they founded Cairo?

Except that's not what Plato described. Solon allegedly got his story of Atlantis from an unnamed priest.

No it took them thousands of years, as demonstrated by the archaeological record.

Nobody thinks this. I think your post might be bait just because this question pretends people think something that nobody does.

After reading Spengler it seems logical that indeed the enlightenment with it's never ceasing pursuit of "liberty" and "equality" is the true reason for the decline of the west.

It sowed the seeds of it's own destruction. The need to question everything ate away at it's own culture and societal foundations. Life became a problem to be solved. That is what he means when he calls liberalism and socialism nihilism. We have tried to rationalize life so much to the point where can find no logical reason to live or continue existing. We have discarded our own culture and traditions, and now the outside ideas people and customs are taking over as they have no such self-defeating nihilism. The west has castrated itself, completely powerless and defenseless against the passioniste and power sequencing foreigners. Liberalism has opened the gates to barbarians so to speak, they have no love or care in the world for the west or the urban liberal intellectual's reason for welcoming of them. They laugh at the foolishness of the west as the gladly take the things it gives to them and push their own culture and traditions at it's expense.

The urban liberal intellectual with his criticism of his own civilization reaching it's logical conclusion not only doesn't care for this, but indeed cheers with joy. The nihilism has given way to self hatred and thus fetishization of everything foreign and non-western.

Democracy and Liberalism has been the west's weakness not it's strength. A return to the pre-enlightenment values is what it needs if it is to continue to survive. Like Caesar and the Emperors of Rome, it is natural for autocracy and strength to replace Democracy and it's weakness. Unfettered by abstract ideals and ethics, it will do what is necessary to preserve itself and it's culture from destruction.

We are not living in a Democracy. We live in a Representative Democracy with never a Referendum, no permanent consultation of the People, and where we only get to elect the leader and the law-makers every 4 or 5 years. Most of the people want to limit immigration, but there are few governments who dare or care to do it. This is a farce of Democracy.
>>
>>2792071
It is the inevitable result of democracy.

"There is no such thing, in fact, as democracy, that lovely but clinical-sounding word. There is only, in Spengler’s phrase, “radical democratic anarchy.” And that, “radical democratic anarchy,” is really only the disguise of “dictatorship.” Thus for Spengler, democracy so-called is the appearance while dictatorship is the substance of the state in dissolution."

I know that in pre-20th century modern English history an officer was required to buy all the accouterments of office and was paid only token amount to formalize his employment by the state; how much money every year did a Victorian officer, say 1870ish and a colonel, have to sink into his office? How does this roughly translate to modern money?

I'd have just Googled something along the lines of "how much did a high-level commission cost in the Victorian era" but I get literally no relevant results, I figured someone would just write "about $250k a year" and then I'd let the thread die.

What is genuinely the most accessible/easy to follow religion?

For example: It seems like with Christianity, it's easy to 'become' one, but then you try and learn about the mysteries of the trinity etc and it turns into a clusterfuck.

OR you become Muslim with a simple phrase but then you need to pray constantly and have compulsory pilgrimages.

Yeah definitely something along those lines with an easy to access set of texts that fit comfortably in one hand and doesn't require much thinking by invalidating everything out of its belief system.
You can't build a massive cohesive empire easily if at all with things like Gnosticism and other such esoteric practices.

American Christianity.

Some faggot kike (who's also god somehow) killed himself like a thousand years ago so you can do whatever you want and get away with it.

No morals, no ethics, no standards. Jesus loves you, Jesus will forgive you, etc etc

Hello, /his/.
First of all, pic unrelated.
I am helping my girlfriend prepare for a test from said topic - French revolution - and I am looking for some interesting books regarding it.
I know the basics, but her teacher (whom I had too, and is probably the best one I ever had) requires more in- depth knowledge - not of dates, but of social, economical and political stances and situation.
It doesn't have to be a book - a decent blog, podcast or anything of sort is welcome too.

Also, general French revolution thread - your favorite moments and people? We haven't had this in a looong time.

Thanks, those seem pretty interesting.

But come on, it wasn't that bad - I mean, the part with Robespierre was pretty fucking awful (unless you're a pretending edgy kid), but the rest was not only interesting, but also quite important for the development of Europe further on.
I sort of regret that La Fayette wasn't a bit more succesfull though. Could've been actually interesting to see how it would turn out with king in position and the radical left kept in check.

As a French Catholic i can clearly tell you that there are two race of French, the Catholic/Royalist and the Atheist who is cultureless and just dead inside
