What are some examples of people who never faltered from their beliefs (especially law men) despite huge pressure?
Any ancient Untouchables?

Honestly why do people like Vikings so much? They were a bunch of disgusting barbarians pillaging and raping innocents.
These savages for all the years the existed they did nothing worthwhile.

>It does not please [you] that I've placed Man among the Anthropomorpha, perhaps because of the term "with human form", but man learns to know himself. Let's not quibble over words. It will be the same to me whatever name we apply. But I seek from you and from the whole world a generic difference between man and simian that [follows] from the principles of Natural History. I absolutely know of none. If only someone might tell me a single one! If I would have called man a simian or vice versa, I would have brought together all the theologians against me. Perhaps I ought to have by virtue of the law of the discipline.
What did he mean by this?

>One should not vent one's wrath on animals, Theology decree that man has a soul and that the animals are mere "aoutomata mechanica," but I believe they would be better advised that animals have a soul and that the difference is of nobility.

Yes
That's why every other kingdom got butthurt when it died
Centuries ago we had men such as Edmund Burke who were proper Conservatives, that believed in freedom and limiting the state, they wrote books which were wonderful to read and inspirational.
But nowadays there are no great intellectual right-wing thinkers, even figures like Buckley from the 1960s are shit and get off on a wide array of vocabulary without substance.
When will a genuine intellectual movement rise in the right-wing that isn't autistic and actually holds fundamental beliefs of Liberty and restricting the powers of the state?
Or will they always succumb to base instincts of creating some kind of perfect ordered society that contradictorily returns to traditional values whilst maintaining Capitalism? (How the fuck can that work?)
Survivor effect.
There's a reason all of the music from the 50s is good: no one saved the garbage.
The Right has plenty of intellectual figures, no one has collated their works and spent years analyzing their influences.
Your disliking of the """""right""""" blinds you to seeking out material on your own.
>>1990992
I don't dislike the right, I am right-wing.
Most of the material I have sought has been absolute shit.
What about Nick Land and Mencius Moldbug?
Tell me about south east asians, who are they? whats their history? are they closer to east asians or south asians? why can't they into relevancy
>>1959940
They're basically the cross-cultural zone between India and China. On the far west you have Burma which is the closest to India both geographically and culturally, and on the far east there's a similar relationship between Vietnam and China.
>why can't they into relevancy
They're very relevant when it comes to dictators, opium and child prostitution.
>>1959940
The region is actually bretty relevant in history due to the trade routes that passed there.
Not to mention the only bunch of Eastern Asians who can work with each other.

Proposal: Should Britain not have joined World War One, she would have better preserved her empire and would have longer remained the world leader.
Great Britain went from being the biggest lender before WWI to being the biggest debtor after WWI, losing India, Ireland, losing grasp of Africa and Asia, losing a million men to death, crippling or mental breakdown.
Was it worthwhile? Was the alternative, a likely quick victory for imperial Germany and a 1871 tier peace with Russia and France, a worse situation for Great Britain and would a victorious Germany have challenged her?
Britain didn't lose India until after WW2.
>>1999171
>would a victorious Germany have challenged her?
gee billy, would a power that literally challenged britain just for the sake of it before the war when it was not yet as powerful as britain have challenged britain when it would have been more powerful, i dunno
>>1999182
It was too big to die immediately, but the collapse began exactly after WWI.
Indian national spirit and mood for sovereignty began after WWI.
Gandhi started his resistance movement in 1915.

DOnt use KEK in your OP as you will be ignored by most
Look at Cromwell, Stuart's, Louis XIV, Prussian monarchs and Russia.
Louis and Cromwell basically had everything under control
Charles 1st had everything under control until the scots rebel as he couldn't afford a proper army
Peter and Catherine the Great are quite important as they made Russia get taken seriously and removed kebab.

Is seeking a career in anthropology worth it?
>>1998839
>anthropology
>career
maybe if you can get paid neetbux to study 4chan cultures
>>1998839
Yes. Follow your dreams. Would you rather have a fulfilling career or a boring one you don't want? Any career is "worth it."
>>1998839
Depends on what subfield you want to go into. I'm really only qualified to talk about archaeology, but I do know it's much, much harder to get a career in cultural anthro or linguistics. Obviously most people who go into those fields and manage to make a career out of it do so in academia, so you'll need to be good enough (and well-off enough) to get through grad school and land a professorship somewhere. I don't know how hard it is to walk down that route these days, but you can count on plenty of competition and it's not like you'll make bank even if you succeed. If you're a physical anthropologist it's a little easier, some of them go into forensics etc, but again that's outside of my experience.
It's late here, so I'm not gonna write up a whole long screed if it's going to be wasted, but career prospects in archaeology is one thing I am qualified to talk about, so if that sounds like something you're interested in let me know and I'll reply when I check back here. If archaeology's not your thing and you have your heart set on being a cultural anthropologist then I can't really help you beyond wishing you lots of luck, which you'll need.
ITT: post good documentaries and sources on history that's relevant to our current day.

caucasoid is the most flexible and convenient phenotypical grouping that is extended to include superficial "caucasoids" (that actually belong to other races)
mixed groups such as north africans, middle easterners, indians, hispanics (mestizos), amerindians, ainus, east africans, central asian turkics, have all been labelled caucasoid due to weak superficial similarities.
it is ignorant and supremacist to favor the caucasoid grouping over non-caucasoid when labelling mixed groups
truth is:
north africans are a mix of west africans, east africans, mediterraneans and arabs
middle easterners are a mix of west africans, east africans, mediterraneans, iranians and indians
hispanics (mestizos) are a mix of africans, amerindians, europeans, arabs
indians are a mix of native veddoids, elamites, arabs, mongoloids, iranians
central asians are a mix of mongoloids, iranians, indians
caucasoid is misapplied as the default race for anyone that exhibits superficial traits as: straight hair, non-snub nose, non-everted lips, round eyes
fact is caucasoid grouping is abused, misused and misapplied
