>no holodomer

The UN definition of genocide.

>"any of the following acts committed with intent to destroy, in whole or in part, a national, ethnical, racial or religious group, as such: killing members of the group; causing serious bodily or mental harm to members of the group; deliberately inflicting on the group conditions of life calculated to bring about its physical destruction in whole or in part ; imposing measures intended to prevent births within the group; [and] forcibly transferring children of the group to another group."

Genocide can have many practical benefits for a state.

Why bother fighting guerrillas when you can simply wipe out the entire population in a region?

If you want to loot people's possessions, but don't want to upset the entire population, why not find a convenient division between minority and the majority and claim that is the reason? If you can do that, why not enslave them as well? Killing off any who consume more than they produce of course.

This site is run by /pol/ now. Enjoy having Trump being the leader of the free world and kick starting crony capitalism 3.0 in the USA and Russia, and everywhere under their respective spheres of influence. You'll be wishing you lived in China soon.

I don't know what it's like to live in the USA fortunately but living in Korea sounds promising lol

What is /pol/ ?

Religion will never be gone because it is not predicated on reason, evidence or truth, but on feelings. As long as humans feel there will be religion. Humanity will never reach Jupiter because of the rise of colour and money and resources being diverted for dem programs.

>a temple to the god Jupiter
>Or will religion be gone by then
That religion is already gone, and don't be fooled by "neo-pagan" LARPers

>>1578161
politics is the new religion. people these days are more obsessed with "redpilling", "social justice", "fairness" etc. than going to heaven

OMG anon cultural appropriation is like, so problematic. Are you saying that natives can't into civilization? Wow. What a fascist. I just can't right now... But wait a minute, what's that? You're saying you're black? Oh well I guess I've better not throw a faux outrage and just stay quiet.

If they built pyramids they could just as well swim across ocean

There was another migration to South America though. One science article that I can't find anymore mentioned this and the book 1491 or 1493.

Yes.

he didn't help

He constantly intervened and screwed things up every time he opened his mouth. Example being his infamous 'hun' speech

>modern
Do you mean contemporary philosophy of mind or more stuff like Reid or Hume? I'm going to point you towards a contemporary thing that seems relevant.

>...consciousness always accompanies thinking...
Look into Higher Order Thought (HOT) in the philosophy of mind. That kinda deals explicitly with this issue.

realise I didn't even put the most important things I wanted in OP.
I mean peronal identity theory in relation to the self. so the nature of the self over time.

Ah ok. As far as that goes, the only book on it I've read is a comparative philosophy book (author wants to bring Indian philosophers into dialogue with western ones). It's pretty based. Indians loved that shit and the author does a good job of showing how Indian, modern western philosophers, and contemporary analytic philosophers can all benefit from discussion together.

But God created those peoples.

Are you asking who gave birth to organized religion? Because even the religions of all the major early civilizations can be traced back into the Neolithic and probably even Paleolithic times. Religion of some sort or another has probably been around as long as we as humans have been able to contemplate our place in the world and the purpose of our existence. People didn't just all of a sudden decide to start worshipping gods once they settled down and built cities. Just look at Gobekli Tepi, that site proves that temples and places of worship were around long before the first cities.

>>1575997
gods were an attempt to personify natural forces in explanations and philosophies.

Monothiesm came from 'my favorite god is better than your favorite god' getting picked up by authoritarian states to convince themselves they were 'the one good' and everyone who disagrees is 'evil'.

The lack of belief isn't a physical thing, just like belief isn't a physical thing. You are conflating conceptual objects with physical objects, stop being a raging moron.

At least Phenomenologists tend to be trolling most of the time, Positivists actually believe it.
