Should it be seen as shameful? Absolutely.
Should it be illegal and punishable? No.

No. It's just women or men selling a service.

What really happened on the "concentration camps"? I have always found strange the idea of wasting resources on killing jews, black people, political opponents... when you're at war. I feel more reasonable the argument that they died of famine and diseases like typhus.

Gathering up your most productive citizens is already a waste, IMO, but priorities shift when hating them is the centerpiece of your ideology. I guess Nazis were a bit misguided!

But anyhoo, even at death camps they would sort them into those who could do useful forced labor before being killed and those who would be killed right away.

As far as im aware most of the jews that got gassed were bums living in poor conditions. Not every jew gets to be a merchant or a banker. The richer ones that had half a brain left Germany ages ago. It was mainly the poor jews that were you know, too poor to move that got rounded up.

The Dutch as a colonial empire isnt powerful really.

Bits of it were stolen by the Brits and natives were often confident in pushing it around. The Chinese fucked them up twice for example, and one of those efforts was led by a pirate lord.

What is your opinion on the Spartans?
16 posts and 3 images submitted.
>>
They were interesting people, but ultimately a plague on mankind, at least for the people living around them and in the same time period as them.

And, of course, they got raped the second other Greek states started to also have professional militaries.

Still, they were one of the first examples of a republic anywhere in history, and pretty good at the whole fighting thing.
>>
>>1616080

I'm glad they existed.

It makes the world a more interesting place.

However, it is almost a miracle they lasted as long as they did.
>>
I see Spartans as thoroughly misunderstood. I think if the general public knew what they were actually like they wouldn't be romanticized to the degree that they are.

>see a philosophy topic on another board
>people say Daniel Dennett isn't a philosopher

He went to Harvard and is famous, so why is he seen as an idiotic joke? Why is Peter Singer seen as a joke when he has about 4 or 5 of the world's best universities on his CV?

Just what the hell does a "proper philosopher" do, and why is their work as inconsequential as the meme philosophers? Bear in mind that I'm the Munchhausen trilemma poster.

2. Why are the olden time philosophers worshipped when they spouted unbelievable amounts of crap that I'm sure no one could get away with today? Is it REALLY all just social posturing? I always shitpost that it is, but it is still a shock to see that I'm right about literally everything.

3. Is there really anything about today's Caapeetalizm *sniff* that will lead to "ruin" on its own terms? I like watching Zizek but it's like he's trying to knock down an imaginary castle. Solar power is becoming cheaper to use. I think Zizek is depressed that societal collapse or revolution won't happen in his lifetime.

Singe is a utilitarian, which is obnoxious: it's austism, the philosophy.

Dennett is part of the New Atheism movement, which makes him obnoxious as well, in fact moreso.

Elaborate.

Modern views meaning any modern ways of thought that didn't exist at the time of these historical events. Like nations in the Hundred Years War.

Nations didn't exist, but realms and kingdoms existed.
