In many cases individual evidence is much more important than statistical averages.

If you have person A who has experience "1", and person B who has experience "5", it's bumfuckinfly retarded to make a policy for the average being "3", when it hasn't been experienced by either person at all. It's imaginary.

Humans are almost never quantifiable.

If you disagree, you're saying you should make policy on an imaginary experience. You must consider the actual factors.

So for example you are saying height isn't quantifiable and we should just make the height of doorways 3ft or whatever other random height we felt like?
>>
>>2506358
Height is certainly quantifiable, however for example the way in which a schizophrenic person hallucinates this would be impossible.

>Height is certainly quantifiable

Well then what was your point?

Why do Westerners give Churchill a pass for his Puppet States and Genocides but they don't give the same pass to Stalin?

>Genocide
Churchill's was actually aimed at an ethnic group

>Shitty puppet states
Every country between Egypt and Bangladesh has his fingerprints on it

>Autistically sending soldiers to their death in a battle that he could never win

It's as educating as dwelling deep into waifu war identity politics, trying to empathise with /r9k/ robots, reason with the regressive left, or yell at trumptards to not follow liberals in their crusade to reclaim their colon in the name of their scalp.

It looks cool and symbolized work ethic, also it was a reference to the first merovingian kings of the franks, who used the bees as a symbol as well, in order to legitimate his rule and show that he took acount of all of France's history

No. It was just "do whatever Hitler says"

It really was a shallow ideology and its party leader even addressed this in the early 1930s.

like >>2505587
said, Strasser really was a nationalist and a socialist, while Hitler took over the party and essentially made it into Hitlerism. It is one of the most authoritarian ideologies I can think of because it ALL depends on Hitler. There was no like list of goals or anything and the reason people seem to have a hard time categorizing it is because it essentially boiled down to it being whatever Hitler wanted it to be at any specific time.

Seriously fuck History degrees, man. I'd be reading Polybius and Isidore of Seville if I wasn't so fed up with writing essays about the status of freedmen in Hispania or the property market in the XIII century.

the trick is to apply to a uni which has its focus on your field of interest, teachers are active on your field of interest

my ancient history final exam was largely about india, because the head of department was a fucking indiaboo

atleast here

Real pertinent question for you

How much was the average 2,687sq ft home in a 13th century city?

It would be interesting to equate that to gold and then translate the value to modern era.
>>
>>2505220
Nah the trouble with my uni (and I guess it's probably the same all along my country) is that exams, as weird as it sounds, barely matter. Most of the classes are about writing essays on extremely niche and concrete issues related to the field or period the subject covers. After a 3 month course of ancient history (both greek and middle eastern) I can write pages about Solon but I only have a swallow knowledge of almost everything else. I had to interrupt my reading of Herodotus, which I started at the beginning of the course.

could existentialism be considered and ideology?
or is it a state of mind?
13 posts and 1 images submitted.
>>
>>2505146

crudely, existentialism is a state of mind

stuff like absurdism and christian existentialism are ideologies and approaches that aim to address it
>>
>>2505166
Ok, But when does existentialism become an ideology? And by then, do we still call it existentialism?
Is existentialism a form of nihilism, or is nihilism a result of an existential crisis?
When someone reaches that point of life in which we call an existential crisis, do they become an existentialist? Or is it all still a subjective experience?
>>
>>2505185
Adding this:
Google describes existentialism as a philosophical theory or approach that emphasizes the existence of the individual person as a free and responsible agent determining their own development through acts of the will.
Which to me doesn't make much sense, since the description above describes free-will in which a person could achieve without going through an existential crisis. To me existentialism was about the realization of the high probability that we might be alone in this universe or at least the absence of higher deity that could control the flow of our lives.
