Wasn't it Willy's idea to follow the Schleiffen plan even at the cost of bringing Britain into the war? Because that's what really put the nail in the whole thing, imo.

From the assassination of Franz to the invasion of Belgium Bethmann-Heollweg, Moltke, and Falkenhayn basically lobbied Wilhelm 24/7 for total war.
Willy wasnt' very bright and had easily wounded pride so he caved. Still no excuse though.

Can we talk about Evola and traditionalism in general? thoughts? was the enlightenment a mistake?
try to keep pol & antipol memes out of the way
The enlightenment was a mistake because it gave birth to the mental illness known as atheism.
He has some interesting insights but his emphasis on occultism and civilization having a 'transcendent' reference point muddles many of his observations. He also mistakes fundamentally the nature of many ancient civilizations.
Ride the Tiger's social commentary is interesting but again the mysticism kind of ruins it.
Doctrine of Awakening is god-tier though.
Evola should only be read in the context of the Perennial Philsophy, making him into a political theorist misses the point entirely
If humanity were to expand into the stars, would it be moral for us to enslave less developed alien civilizations in protection of humanity's supremacy? Would they deserve the same rights as humans if they possess sentience?
>>2415757
Yes and no
>>2415773
I wouldn't support the enslavement of other humans, but in the context of other nonhuman species (assuming they exist), it seems like it would be the best thing to do to defend ourselves.
I believe Stephen Hawking was the one who said that meeting aliens would be like being the Indians when they met Christopher Columbus. The solution to that seems to be to mimic Columbus.
Would it be an efficient system that is compatible with a market economy? Could we see similar populist divides over the system in the run up to the American Civil War in that scenario? For instance, competition between alien slave labor and human free labor for the same job that could breed an anti-slavery movement that isn't based on the welfare of aliens, but more so on stopping the concentration of power and capital into a few hands?
Depends if you think physiological features are a determinant for rights v. behavioral.
The question really isn't too far removed from that concerning other nations, or more generally other groups.
I'd be against xeno-slavery on if they were shown to have even rudimentary behavior similar to our own,
and also I'd be against it on pragmatic grounds as the historical case seems to go that slavery never seems to end well for the dominant group,
maybe making it a threat to any sort of long-term supremacy.
Second American Civil War:
>1850s: Political parties steadily lost their status as national organizations and solely appealed to regions of the country, not the nation as a whole
>Today, Republicans appeal to the Midwestern and Southern whites, whereas the Democrats appeal more so to urban areas
You can see the first case in how the vote split along the Wilmot Proviso. Every Southerner voted against it and every Northerner voted for it, crossing party lines in the process. Stephen A. Douglas’ cucking by Breckinridge in the Election of 1860 is another example: Southern Democrats tried to make Northern Democrats their bitches.
Today, we see that the Republicans are appealing to working class whites to oppose mass immigration, the cornerstone of Trump’s campaign. Regardless of your opinion on the matter, this mirrored Lincoln’s anti-slavery coalition. Most of the anti-slavery movement in the United States was not built off of the abolitionist concern for the welfare of blacks, but more so built off of the skeptical Northern white working class, who saw the Mexican-American war as a slave lobby war to expand the land open to slavery, and saw the expansion of slavery into the territories as the removal of areas for free labor to compete in.
>1852: South Carolina passes a secession ordinance
>2017: California puts secession on its 2018 ballots
California, as arguably one of the most influential most liberal states (perhaps after New York), is mirroring South Carolina in this situation. With its position as a cultural bellwether for most of Democratic America, California is going out and making radical moves, like South Carolina did. Most of the Southern states laughed off these attempts and the Confederacy was laughed at in the Upper South even in 1860, but once Lincoln ordered 750,000 troops after Sumter, the Virginians were seceding and the Confederacy had legitimacy.

>>2415733
If California were to secede today, perhaps to protect undocumented immigrants from mass deportations or something of the sort, could we see other states secede alongside it? New York seems too entrenched in the establishment to leave, especially considering its territorial differences, but perhaps New Mexico? If Arizona weren’t so fucking conservative I would mention them, but any other areas?
>1850s: National enforcement of fugitive slave codes pisses off anti-slavery Northerners
>2017: National enforcement of mass deportations pisses off pro-immigration folks
A major issue in the 1850s was the national enforcement of the fugitive slave code after the Compromise of 1850. The creation of slave catcher organizations that were on the road to becoming secret police was especially egregious and many Northerners refuse to cooperate. Though in this case the sides are switched (if we’re comparing Hispanic undocumented migrants to slaves), the point still stands that Trump choosing to do mass deportations and also going after sanctuary cities could engulf similar tensions between Republican and Democrat America that plagued America in the 1850s.
>Senators built various Compromises (Missouri, 1850, Crittenden, etc) to balance the slave and free states influence in national policy
>Senators building compromises on immigration today that constantly need reform
We can see with groups like the Gang of Eight that they are trying to play to both sides. I'm not saying that making compromises is inherent to a Civil War, but considering how polarized both the Democrats and Republicans have become on the issue of immigration, all it would take is one bad compromise for whoever wasn’t in power to go walking.
What do you guys think?
LARPing, you ain't succeeding for shit.
>b-b-b-ut muh rebel huurrrritage
>>2415744
>muh rebel heritage
lol I'm from New York and in no way support the Confederates. I'm just pointing out that we are technically at a point of regional divide that we haven't seen since the American Civil War.
It's not just about the political party divide. If you read Martin Van Buren's writings on political division, you'd find that having Democrats and Republicans actually makes the nation more united. By having Republicans in Massachusetts and Republicans in South Carolina, you cultivate a political environment in which the political parties have to appeal to all sectors of the country. But as we can see with both sides today, that clearly isn't the case.
I'm not a Trump supporter, but it's clear that if Hillary didn't win the Midwest, she isn't appealing to their interests. And the fact that she was able to win the popular vote without winning vast swathes of the country mirrors Southern fears that if they didn't secede, they would simply get outvoted and lose parity in the Senate to anti-slavery Republicans.
