Why was there so much international pressure on South Africa and Rhodesia? It's especially odd that both blocs (western and soviet) were against these regimes and either issuing sanctions or funding rebels.
Don't feed me the crap they teach you in school and tell me it had anything to do with racism or whatever. I'm not naive enough to believe it has anything to do with ideology. Anyone, even the most fanatical ideologue would realize that giving uncivilized tribals control of a country is a bad idea, as evidenced by the fact that literally half the countries in Africa are currently on genocide watch.
>>2736954
(((They))) wanted to destroy successful white countries.
>>2736954
Listen sweetie. In this world, there are only those who bend over willingly for world powers or those who get bent over forcefully. Because South Africans and Rhodesians were delusional retards fed from the cradle that they are better than the "others" (blacks), they thought this also applied globally. They were taught their lesson. Be thankful one of them still exists
>>2736972
Several of the rebel groups were funded by the USSR, and several African states were already adopting socialism.
How could the USA not have been concerned that the fall of these regimes would lead the new government into the Soviet sphere of influence?
Are there any other ethnic grousp more destructive than the eternal Germanics?

So I just read a few books about hard determinism and I'm really convinced by its arguments.
According to it's logic, a nigger who commits evil isn't really responsible for his actions.
When I make a choice/action, I can not help thinking that it is not really "me" who chooses, if this "me" is itself, in fact, only the reflection of causes that escape it, of experiences which he does not choose, and so on. How to carry out our existence with that on consciousness?
Anything I should read to get back my faith on free will?
I can't live convinced by that determinism shit, everytime a refugee do bad I can't help but think "oh well he was determined to do so, poor guy"
I'm becoming a SJW.
>>2736650
just because the future is pre determined doesnt mean you have to accept and forgive criminals. you may think that's cruel, but the world is cruel. the true solution is to ensure the criminal is never born in the first place.
>>2736650
That "reflection" is still responsible for its actions. Try using the argument "I'm not responsible for my actions, it was predetermined that i commit the crime" in a court of law. You'll get laughed at and thrown in prison.
Taking responsibility for our actions is what separates a sentient being from mere animals
>>2736651
>>2736650
I'd like to add that when a society believes in determinism, that doesn't necessitate a removal of the justice system. Rather it just changes its goals slightly. There are some humans that are simply born with genetics or circumstances that make them incompatible with society. Those people simply need to be removed from society. There are yet others who simply need help adjusting to society, even if they commit egregious crimes. These are the ones that require the justice system to adapt. We should be working on rehabilitating those, rather than trying to punish them because we erroneously believe they have simply made the choice to be bad.
Here's another hard truth for you since you seem to be into that if you're reading about how we don't have free will. The only reason why the human body is so robust today is because countless humans lived a suffering and miserable life from birth through no fault of their own, and our species must continue this trend of we want to remain as we are. That means we have to commit ourselves to some sort of genetic hygiene program, either through technology or selective pressures.

Though its importance in history cannot be questioned, what made the French Revolution so much autistic and volatile as a whole than the American Revolution?
>>2736473
Hungry masses and being surrounded by nations that hated them, along other things.
Read Diderot and then read Locke, that'll tell you everything you need to know.
>>2736473
The American Revolution was about englishmen asserting their traditional rights as englishmen. It was pretty conservative, in a way. The French Revolution was about the overthrow of the old social order and a complete remaking of society and got way more autistic about the rights of man.
What are some instances in history where two forces battle but then somebody else disrupts them?

Was racism and sexism allowed in the Soviet Union?
Not on paper, at least.
>>2736102
I don't know why you would use the word 'allowed', racism wasn't explicitly state-sanctioned, but racism did exist as it does in any state.
only situation I know where such hatred was sanctioned by the state was during World War II, where propaganda was as simple as "Kill the German", though with the Russians/Ukrainians/Belorussians already enraged at everything the Germans did to them, it almost went without saying.
Yes. They implemented racial policies in marginalizing many non-european tribes/ethnic groups. By marginalizing, I meant cultural cleansing tactics. Like forced relocations, forced into re-education camps, etc
>told by parents and high school teachers if you read or study history it will make you outraged about things in the modern world
>study history
>actually makes you more content or just complacent with things going on in the modern world because most bad things happening today, like war/rape/slavery/persecution/tyranny, happened in history anyway even during the best times under the best leaders
I totally feel you. It baffles me how my grandpa says his times were better when fucking Nazis, Communists and CIA were rampant. ie. Holocaust, Gulags, political massacres in the west.

Four of my grandparents died in the Holocaust, you insensitive prick.
So what do we think about this guy?
Does he reveal a nefarious, pervasive, historically-ingrained undercurrent of the Western psyche? Or is he just an ideologue and intellectual hypocrite who spouts Occidentialism to advance his own political causes?
>>2735786
Edward "Ayatollah Khomeni did literally nothing wrong" Said is definitely the latter.
>Asking about Edward Said on 4chan
Here comes a sophisticated discussion...
>>2735786
He never implied that Orientalism was "nefarious," just that that Western scholars always approach the East as an "Other."
Personally, I think he is correct. The most obvious example being the use of "Allah" in the West to refer exclusively to the Islamic conception of the Abrahamic God, when it's also used by Arabic speaking Christians to refer to their capital G God.
