Why was Diogenes so hung up on Plato?
What did he ever do to him?

>>3238392
Plato was a Chad and Diogenes was a jealous Virgin.

>>3238392
Diogenes entire argument was that humans complicate and ruin everything. Plato was the epitome of that in his eyes.

The atom bomb was pretty successful.

The Dardanelles Gun, and other super-heavy guns of the type which were used by the Turks to siege Constantinople, and still worked well enough to fend off an attack by the Royal Navy centuries later.

>wanting to live duirng any ear when internet wasn't present

this right here is literally the most interesting era.

>>3238185

You honestly have more power to learn about the Victorian Era now than they did.

>>3238202
Fpbp

Not having the ability to instantly examine any part of history is wayyyyy more interesting. In this we live through all eras.

If you wanted to examine history in the Victorian Era youd have to go to school for years to even be allowed to listen to lectures or obtain manuscripts. Now I work at a minimum wage job and travel through time.

Suck my balls OP

> Having bad advisors is now considered "did nothing wrong."

Jesus fuck, even Carlos II is less retarded than this Victorian cunt-disgrace in that regard.

>>3238126

The opposite is true. His advisors tended to beg him not to do stupid shit and he'd do it anyway, usually because Rasputin and the Tsarina wanted time alone.

Too much, and you become a dick. A reasonable level can be a good thing, mostly when you're surrounded by idealistic people.

cynicism is not realism

So nothing tangible, no documents mentioning such a thing?
Guess the guy I remember saying it was just suggesting it, not claiming it.

I doubt it because each legion had several thousands of men, which makes unlikely for them to operate near enough of the next legion that they had to bother with an potential confusion.

>>3238105
Do you even know what a cohort is?
And 3-4 legions fighting together on the same field weren't something unheard of.

The USSR had problems with other religions for a while.

The Soviets didn't have freedom of religion.

you ask the question using language taught to you by your community, that only gets it's stable meaning through shared use and shared practices around correct/incorrect uses of the words

>but are those humans conscious

note the thinking going on here. if we take just the visua field for example, what you're doing is instead seeing things in the world around you, you're stepping back in your awareness and becoming cognizant of your visual field itself. You are then imagining a sort of realist meatphysics in which your visual field exist in a sort of objective space, an the question you ask yourself is someething like "within this objective space that my visual fied exists within (along with my other senses/life), does there *also* exist other visual fields/experiences? And how am I, from my subjectivist little world within this objective space, to know whether other little worlds like mine exist?

These are a *lot* of metaphysical assumptions being made, and they're being made based on a specific mental practice of stepping back from our normal everyday way of experiencing the world and other people, into a very specific, unusal type of awareness and viewing your own sense experience from a sort of 'faux' third person view, almost like heidegger's sense of 'present-at-hand'.

but this is not how we experience and interact with others in the vast majority of instants, so why should this form the basis of our metaphysics and our belief in 'other minds'

>>3237299
hold an orange up in front of someone, in our normal everyday mode of existence it is a singular object that both people see, and understand eachother as seeing (for example, get your friend to point at the orange, they don't point to a personal, private experience of a second orange - they point to the orange out there in the shared world). you use shared language, learnt from others to even ask for the guy to point. and then you go into this autistic spastic mode of seeing your own experience as private, and even your friends body as private, and this autisitc question arises "DOES ANOTHER ORANGE EXIST IN MY FRIENDS EXPERIENCE THAT EXISTS IN AN OBJECTIVE SPACE, TRANSCENDENT TO MY OWN EXPERIENCE?"

it's a question that seems coheerent, but when we unpack the assumptions that lead to it, we can see that it's not realy a valid question. it's a sort of category error, it arises from false assumptions and thoughts, and it is something that the philosopher *dissolves* rather than solves.

p-zombies are literally the very same thing as other humans, prove me wrong

Marx was a selfhating jew

>>3237113
Maybe you should focus on what his works instead of his family background.

You think Marx having a Jewish family isn't a well known, established fact.

It's literally in the Bible you idiot. Go check out Exodus 4, verses 10-17

No, not among the nigs/gooks/chinks/spics and the natives, aong with the rest of the non-humans. Awkwardness is definitely a white (high iq) attribute, not understandable by the lower races and the subhumans.

1. THE QUOTATION REFERENCES HIPPOCRATES CLAIMING THAT SCYTHIANS PHYSICALLY RESEMBLED EGYPTIANS, NOT THAT SCYTHIANS CLAIMED TO BE EGYPTIAN, IDIOT —DID YOU EVEN READ WHAT IS IN THE IMAGE THAT YOU POSTED?

2. WHOMEVER MADE THAT IMAGE, ADDING "IRANIAN" IN PARENTHESES, IS AN IGNORANT MORON; SCYTHIANS, AND IRANIANS, ARE NOT MUTUALLY EQUIVALENT, NOR IS ONE A SUBGROUP OF THE OTHER —THEY DID NOT EVEN SHARE THE SAME GEOGRAPHICAL ZONE.

>>3236823
Scythians were an iranian people. Assuming than that makes them look like the average person of modern Iran is a mistake but they were an iranian people. Learn what that means.
