>Ungern-Sternberg inverted Western fears of the "Yellow Peril", arguing that the West was morally corrupt and degenerate with the forces of "mad revolution" controlled by the Jews were running amok while the East had mostly maintained its moral purity, and he would lead a pan-Asian army to cleanse the West of its sickness via a bloodbath.

Did the Romans really claim Troyan legacy?

Sort of. Ancient mythmaking is not a stupidly primitive idea like some people today seem to think it is, and it isn't exactly accurate to say they "claimed" the legacy. It's more that there were ideas floating around that the Roman people were tied to the survivors of Troy who had fled after the war to explain various parts of their culture, why they were a powerful civilization that didn't rise in the Greek east, why they were of equal status to Greek intellectualism and culture, why they had a right to conquer the Greeks etc. Virgil formalised the entire idea in his poem and with it set down like that it began to be more widely exploited. It's not like people literally believed in it, since it was a fiction book written by a man in the 1st century B.C, ancients were capable of employing a kind of doublethink where they could believe two things simultaneously even if contradictory. They could be both children of the Trojans, and their own unique entity as well. They could both "believe" in the gods, and they could criticise the idea of them existing.

They didn't much use of the so-called claim outside of the Aeneid. You see depictions of figures like Anchises, Paris and Hector quite a lot but that isn't specifically a Trojan thing. It's all very much in the realm of Greek mythology.

The main purpose was to bring themselves into the Hellenic sphere - of history, mythology, and importance.

I've been hearing this a lot in relation to to ISIS and current events:

"Islam is a newer religion, it just hasn't had its enlightenment yet"

What do they mean by this?
46 posts and 9 images submitted.
>>
People don't know anything about the history of Islam or the history of Christianity but try to make superficial connections anyway.

Like when stupid people say ISIS is conservative/ old school Islam. They don't know what they're talking about.
>>
That's bullshit from people who don't understand the cycles of history.

Islam belongs to a civilisation that is a thousand years older than ours, and it's a purist reform, not the founding religion of its civilisation. It would be analogous to puritanism in the West, if puritanism had succeeded in taking over all of Western Europe.

In fact if anything the Islamic world is worse now than it's ever been. Compare the liberal Muslims of the 10th/11th centuries (who were only liberal because they had a more relaxed attitude towards their own religion) with Islam now that Saudi Wahhabism has taken it over.
>>
Islamism actually had its age of "enlightenment" or whatever you call it really early on, and was relatively enlightened up until the 13th century when the mongols and turks destroyed everything. There were philosophers, religious pluralism, even atheists and secularist philosophers.

The thing is, the Ottoman Empire really held the entire region back for 500 years so by the time the ottoman emprie fell, the region had a lot of catching up to do.

In the decolonisation era, around the 50's, 60's, and 70's, the Arab world was incredibly secular and modern. However around the same period there was the rise of Islamist fanatic movements.

These were supported mostly by western governments who opposed the secular socialist regimes (i.e. Nasser, Saddam, Assad, etc.) and with the defeat of the soviet union, the secular socialist movements took a massive hit. western backed islamism gained the upper hand, and with backing of Saudi Arabia has hyper mutated into some ultra-radical extremist genocidal form, like we see in ISIS today.

ISIS is basically wahabism on steroids. Wahabism is a relatively new ideology that started in the Nejd desert in the 19th century, it basically seeks to destroy everything and return everything to a primitive and "pure" state, thats why its ultimately destructive in everything.

Wahabism descends from the same khawarij which appeared in early islam. Basically these are the same people originated from the Nejd desert who rejected the authority of the early caliphates because they hated their disruption to their way of life, they just wanted to stay primitive and backwards in the desert and wanted to destroy or take down anything that tried to change that. All they want is their very primitive desert life and they want to destroy everything back to that "pure" state, its all they've ever wanted.

The west exploits this to prevent modernisation in the region, to keep it backwards, undeveloped, and exploitable.

The more you read history, the more you realize that she is right

You do realise most people in Western countries believed that at some point, to an extent?

Your parents probably did
>>
>>2026774
My parents don't believe what most people do, neither do I. So you can't make that assumption.

why does western media always suck Rommel's dick and present him as some apolitican gentleman soldier when in fact he was a hardcore Nazi and fanatical supporter of Hitler?

Also related, why do they always portray the July 20 plot as some liberal pro-democratic movement when in fact they were all hardcore nationalists that knew they were losing the war and wanted to replace Hitler as leaders of Germany so they could sue for peace with the allies and keep the occupied territories?

Mostly for propaganda reasons, it made the allies look better if they said they defeated a top tier German general. He was the main general the allied forces were fighting from 41-43.

The real king of the Wehrmacht was pic related.

If God is real and there is an afterlife, why should I care about this world?

Why should I care about my education, politics, global warming (inb4 global warming not real, that's not the point) my health or my freedom?

Why shouldn't I just fuck the society and spend my whole life praying?

Isn't this life meaningless if there's an afterlife that lasts forever?

Hence why many early Christians sects and "heresies" were life-denying, anti-natalist and even anarchich/antinomian.

The Cultural Revolution was a complete mess initiated by Mao who was paranoid after the rest of the Communist Party was beginning to largely pin the massive fuckup that was the Great Leap Forward on him. The Cultural Revolution cemented China's place as a plastic cultureless shithole. It's pretty in some places, but it's still a shithole.

Deng Xiaoping was an authoritarian bastard. Hu Jintao was a lot better.

Everything you've heard about Mormonism from South Park and the media is true, they're crazy cultist tier. When I stopped going to church they sent guys to my house to check up on me. When I moved two states away for work several months later, they tracked me down and sent some of the locals out to grill me. Stay away.

Miles quidam, cui barba longa maximae curae erat, histrionem quendam graviter offendit neque ullam poenam ei dare voluit. Quamquam alii milites eum hortabantur ut histrioni aliquid daret, ne quid detrimenti caperet, miles ille quicquam se ei daturum esse negabat.
Quodam die, cum venisset ad balneas publicas, histrio ille eum iam exspectabat. Et cum simul essent in balneis, pyxidem prompsit plenam unguenti depilativi, cui militis fallendi causa aliqua aromata addiderat et faciem totam unguere coepit. Quod cum miles aliquod tempus spectavisset, “Quod unguentum ita aromaticum est?” Cui histrio: “Si quis faciem hoc unguento unxerit, semper eam roseam et pulchram servabit, et nihil magis hoc unguento idoneum est ad pulchritudinem augendam”.
Cum miles interrogavisset num quid eius unguenti sibi daret, ille dixit: “Magno pretio hoc unguentum emi et nemini partem eius dabo”. His verbis dictis histrio quasi ad necessaria exiit pyxidem consulto reliquens. Miles autem, arbitratus barbam quoque mox multo pulchriorem futuram esse, sine ulla cunctatione pyxide capta totam faciem et barbam longam unxit. Pilis autem statim cadentibus pudore affectus domum fugit morbo simulato servis imperavit ne quem intrare sinerent.
Histrio autem regi et militibus eius totam rem nuntiavit; qui statim ad domum militis accedentes invenerunt eum imberbem et illudentes hominem maestum reliquerunt.
