Accurate, fast-loading guns and mass-produced ammunition. You had to keep out of sight.
This applies to rifles, machine guns and artillery.
For the latter, you also needed to be away from the blast.

The following could amount to a crucial and timely philosophical breakthrough. It seems to be very close to what Immanuel Kant called the philosophers' stone.
Delusionally oversimplified: A new philosophical backbone for a global order,regional orders, local orders, personal orders, some degree more potent than communism.

"Do I seem free enough?
If yes, for how long probably?
If so, what could I do that seems best for all?"

This is the root of a new ethics. It gives people a "start for thinking", which accounts for a basic bipolarity: (non-deity-) agents have two high objectives: existential and recurring personal liberation, for example from itch or death, and moral activity that attempts, what seems to be best for all.

This may seem abstract, but in the time it grew with me, it raised some heavy/influential consequences:
- a bipolarity for the political landscape, that seems scalable from the individual to the whole of humanity, and that at the same time seems much more cooperative, as every human experiences both parties' central objectives in his daily life. Maturing democracy's appeal big time.
- a basic root thought for an artificial intelligence, that could invoke a reasoned, largely beneficial stance on humanity (in case you mind: see "control problem")
-...

And it has some important conclusions for the present years' situation:
- Liberation is important besides "best for all", therefore there has to be a dynamic limit: "increasingly voluntary liberations sum equality" (Binding engagement subtracts from liberation.)
- Liberation, that is ignorant of other agents, risks their antiliberation, pressing them to liberate themselves as well. This possible mutually ignorant subgroup liberation can spiral down. The way out, even for past events, seems to be "increasingly voluntary antiliberation compensation".
The first point would ease inequality tensions and the second would slow downward spirals in politics, economics... from small to big scale.

-If you mind, take these last points to a news page of your flavour and test them.
-Please be careful to implement, I can not yet afford compensation for damage done.
-Discuss among each other, I will only restart the thread in case it 404s.
-I cherish anonymity here, as I am productive (highly) that way and I guess, that with a public position that would change, to long term detriment.
-I learned to prefer gradual evolution over disruptive revolution. This system should help with that.
-The MOST URGENT consequence is, that people keep calm and go on in their doings, now assured of improvement, to avoid systemic seizure.

Thanks for all good

What a waste. Anyone can draw some graph on MS paint with no data on irrelevant axis and make out its some "major breakthrough" See: /pol/ infographics.

So "humanity", or more loosely, society, cycles or oscillates? astounding breakthrough. Did you also just discover that humanity oscillates between peace and war? such an original observation, there must be some omnipotent force that causes all war and peace!

Do you have any data to support this theory? do you have some sort of logical proof, based on established axioms? or is this just the meaningless rambling of an arch-mediocrity?
>>
>>1544646
Maybe search the key terms "liberation" and "best for all" on Google ngrams. The results seem more than random.
Thanks for considering and replying.

Was the Wehrmacht actually that good or has it been overblown? Most of their quick early victories were against small nations who had no chance against anyone, let alone a first rate nation with Prussian military heritage. Their victory in France has been attributed to French war weariness and poor leadership, while the early eastern front was a shitshow on the part of the red army. Seems like when their enemies got their act together, they were doomed to fail.

Tbh the Kaiser's army in 1914 seemed a better army that could actually withstand their foes.

Not sure where I read this but I believe that their officers had more command in what they did on the battle field, that and they always counterattacked after a defeat, no matter what.

Anyone confirm is this is true?

Yes they were the best by far

I think Yi-Soon-Shin was the naval general that Korea did not deserve. If he was born into a western naval country like the UK, he would be renowned across the world.

But he gave his life defending the very country that hunted him and despised him.
He is the hero korea needed, but did not deserve.

For those not versed in asian history, here is a pretty good recap

His primary accomplishment was ultimately failing to navigate internal politics, actual combat capabilities had little to do with his victories; overwhelming technological advantage in application did that fine.

In the book "Game of Thrones" a prominent lord raises armies tens of thousands strong for a punitive war against a family that took his son prisoner. Has there ever been a similarly punitive campaign in direct response to a noble's kidnapping?

Were the Japanese really as savage as they were depicted in WW2 and pre-WW2 western history books? If so, can you provide some good books on the culture that fuels their need to use every last citizen to fight to the death.

More so since western history books are Christianized. There is a good documentary named solders of the devil or something along those lines that takes accounts from the Japanese solders themselves.

Yes, this was the best chance to be rid of the blacks and it was missed. They don't even need to go to Africa they could be settled in Haiti which was already a containment zone.

Armageddon -The Battle For Germany 1944 to 1945 by Max Hastings... Jesus what a fucking nightmare he paints the war as. He's pretty even handed too with all sides. But he does hold quite some contempt for British Command

Storm of Steel by Ernst Jünger. It's a day by day accounting of his experiences in the Trenches. There's no plot, no anti-war sentiment. Just a cold mechanical retelling of the hell he went through and how fucking much he loved the war.

>“Trench fighting is the bloodiest, wildest, most brutal of all. Of all the war's exciting moments none is so powerful as the meeting of two storm troop leaders between narrow trench walls. There's no mercy there, no going back, the blood speaks from a shrill cry of recognition that tears itself from one's breast like a nightmare.”

In total, Jünger was wounded 14 times during the war, including five bullet wounds. He lived to be 102.
