richard spencer is a controlled shill. hitler is dead and should stay dead. fuck ethnic germans. all white people should unite.

>>2291189
Yes. It was only because of Hitler's willingness to take risks that France was even conquered. When he left High Command on their own, they gave him disasters like Kursk.

Reminder that the original OKW plan for the Battle of France involved a two-year slugfest and optimistically around 1 million German casualties.

The myth of a Flood that kills off almost the entire human race is present in various cultures around the world, from Mesoamerica, to Greece, to Mesopotamia, to India, to Australia.
What could be the origin of this legend?
28 posts and 4 images submitted.
>>
>>2290877
There are 165 major rivers in the world and thousands of minor rivers.

According to wiki pages, roughly 20-30 floods hit each year, atleast recorded ones on wiki. I suspect the number of actual floods happening per year is in hundreds.

If we assume 30 minimum each year, over, the past 2000 years, thats roughly 60,000 years. Over the span of 10,000 years, that's around 200,000 major floods.

A myth coming from few of those is not out of ordinary.
>>
The first agricultural civilizations formed on the banks of rivers which flooded every year. Some floods were bigger than others. A story about a REALLY big flood is basically inevitable.

He spread his culture instead of destroying others. He also learned to adopt some of the ways of the Middle Eastern people later in his life, proving that he wasn't just a bloodthirsty warlord like the Mongols. Also, he's possibly the greatest military genius this world has ever seen and deserves respect for that.

Not one battle decided the war.

A mix of having to fight on multiple fronts, not focusing on Moscow, Hitler disregarding his commanders to take control himself among other things.

So loosing Paulus' army wasn't that devastating?

I mean, Stalingrad was at least a turning point right?

From America's perspective the generals wrote up war plans not long after Barbarossa that assumed the USSR would be knocked out of the war by 1943. Was the resilience of the USSR a complete surprise to everyone?

At what point is it acceptable to take up arms against ones own government?

At what point can you consider things bad enough to consider that a reasonable alternative to protest and negotiation?

Thread failed on /pol/. Let's see here.

So a point of criticism of USA and modernism brought up by Guenon, Evola, Gobineau and others is the lost of hierarchy.

The need of a rigid caste system with a "priestly" / "warrior"/ whatever caste that rules over the rest, who are deemed to be completely degenerate. While indeed it guarantees an order, imo it's also explicit that this is a double edged sword, for it exposes itself grealty to abuses, exploitation, elitism. We all know that elites are majoritary degenerates. Traditionalists argue that this is because: either the caste degenerates or it's infiltrated or because le kali yuga.

But, how are we sure that high castes weren't degenerate even in the past and that the pure perfectly priestly caste isn't just an idealization of something that didn't really exist? Of course, righteous rulers always existed as well, but that doesn't means that the caste system is perfect either.

Several imperial castes in China were of peasant (ie lower caste) origin. Abuse/degeneration of brahmin caste is mentioned since centuries before Christ in India.

Therefore, are rigid castes just an idealized vision of exploitation? Or is social mobility and democracy (perhaps not in its modern form) superior?

Hierarchy is always going to exist. Whether or not its (((bankers))) or kings who share your ethnic ingroup, nothing will change the fact that there is a top and a bottom. This is simply reality.

As for social mobility, the idea the hierarchical systems don't have them is false. In the Middle Ages a peasant could move up the social latter in the span of several generations. While this slow and steady approach may not be exciting, it doesn't change the fact that it isn't there.

Societies that have caste systems today (India) do pretty good.
