If you bring forth what is within you, what you bring forth will save you. If you do not bring forth what is within you, what you do not bring forth will destroy you.

why is racism philosophically unsound ?
>inb4 dont judge people based on skin colour
that implies that there are no relevant biological differences between the races besides their skin colour which is obviously an open and purely scientific question
>inb4 you racist pig back to /pol/
im not even saying im racist im just wondering what reasons you could present to conclusively conclude that racism is wrong
>>1701844
It does lead to some pretty bad things.
Like intolerance, discrimination and outright genocide.
It also tends to erase the individual, with his own merits and faults, and judges everything by group.
>>1701844
Because races are a spook.
>>1701844
The concept of discrimination is not philosophically unsound, but the concept of race is. Just think about whites: there are no two people who agree on who qualifies as such and who doesn't.

Manstein, model, guderian. Roshikovsky of whatever that Russian was called
>>1704333
rokossovsky you mean? he was great.
also, say what you want about how he ruled post-revolution(absolute dogshit), but mao's strategy to mobilize the peasants to support him and the party was outstanding.
What are your favourite bible verses, /his/?
Wisdom 11:21-12:2
For it is always in thy power to show great strength,
and who can withstand the might of thy arm?
Because the whole world before thee is like a speck that tips the scales,
and like a drop of morning dew that falls upon the ground.
But thou art merciful to all, for thou canst do all things,
and thou dost overlook men’s sins, that they may repent.
For thou lovest all things that exist,
and hast loathing for none of the things which thou hast made,
for thou wouldst not have made anything if thou hadst hated it.
How would anything have endured if thou hadst not willed it?
Or how would anything not called forth by thee have been preserved?
Thou sparest all things, for they are thine, O Lord who lovest the living.
For thy immortal spirit is in all things.
Therefore thou dost correct little by little those who trespass,
and dost remind and warn them of the things wherein they sin,
that they may be freed from wickedness and put their trust in thee, O Lord.
Behold, I send you forth as sheep in the midst of wolves: be ye therefore wise as serpents, and harmless as doves.
- Matthew 10:16
What is stopping human kind from achieving world peace?
If you don't show up to a war and the other guy does, that other guy ends up in charge of you.
In case you haven't noticed, it's not the touchy feely Western powers starting all of this shit, despite what apologists would have you believe.

Why don't we study the history of the USSR in high schools?
Isn't it incredibly important to learn about why and how the biggest non-capitalist experiment started and failed
>>1708372
Did at my high school, at least up to 1953
>>1708372
>non-capitalist experiment
They were state capitalists.
>>1708372
They want you to know that it wasn't capitalism and therefore failed. They don't want you to discover that it failed because it was ass backwards non-democratic anti-market non-capitalism. Otherwise you might start thinking there are alternatives to capitalism that may work. It's better to simply call everything that isn't good for the elites socialism and bound to fail.
What went wrong /his/?
Mass entertainment was taken by greedy idiots
Just compare contents from the 80s to now
Reality shows are really cheap to make, and people still watch them.
Like, you're talking 10% of the cost of a scripted program with real actors.
>>1708357
Competition often destroys public goods
Did they resemble the pic here?
>>1708350
They still look like that.
Unless you find an ancient photo of them that shows otherwise, yeah, that's what we think they looked like.
Like this.
Why didn't North American tribes ever have societies as big as Central and South American ones?
>>1707799
I guess their agriculture never amounted to more than subsistence farming and foraging
Why? Luck, genetics, a combination of both probably
>>1707799
They may have, someone built all those mounds
Maize reached the region much later, so their development began much later. They were developing complex societies by the time the Spanish arrived and everyone died of smallpox.
