What happened to left-wing political violence?

Since the early 80s, essentially all nonstate terrorism has been committed by far-right militants, be them Islamist or white supremacist. Why has the left lost its teeth?

No.

It was combat effective through the war, but without diplomacy to actually control the borders, the enemies received infinite weapons and supplies from china and russia. They would have jeeded to agent orange a quarter mile deep strip along a border and make a trump style wall with riflemen on it

No one wanted, it they offered it a few times to Lithuania and Germany both rejected.

They took it after ww2, who was going to stop them? though I'm not sure why they decided to make it direct territory instead of just giving it to Poland. Also interested in how they managed to keep it after the fall of the USSR. It's sad to see such a historical region cleansed of any culture and history.

Potsam arrangements, in order to give Russia a warm-water port in the Baltic Sea. St. Petersburg gets blocked by ice occasionally.

Teddy may not have been the best US president, but he was one of the most imperial ones.

Also, they need to eliminate all of the Native Americans to make room for multiple different Greek civs.

Pretty bad desu, it uses an outdated theory, geographism than was deemed racist like 40 years ago and uses lots of flawed and uninformed pet theories of the author. For what I recall he had friend or was part of the nature billboard and that's why is so extended.

Never actually read it but from what I heard he seems to make a lot of false assumptions, like the supposed lack of large animals outside Eurasia.

What can i read to get enlightened about the roots of our enjoyment of plots and characters?
Why do we like and enjoy reading or watching events occur to different characters?
I dont mean just an analysis of what it is that we enjoy, but why we enjoy it. I am sure there might be different approaches to this but is there a name for such questions?
When I write "we enjoy" I mean what most people find enjoyable, the popular.

Knowledge: My body's behaviour is partially influenced from outside the material world by me (I am an immaterial mind).

Hypothesis: Every adult human's body's behaviour is partially influenced from outside the materialist world by an immaterial mind.

As we all know, there is currently a plausible account of every human body's behaviour which only refers to material causes.

If my hypothesis is true, does it mean that people like Dan Dennett are basically con-men, who have figured out that even though they know old-fashioned dualism is true, they can't lose the game if they just pretend that it isn't?

Not even a materialist, but I don't see how you can come to the conclusion. They probably just don't see what you are taking as evidence for dualism to be evidence for dualism.
>>
>>1353637
>They probably just don't see what you are taking as evidence for dualism to be evidence for dualism.
In my view, they are basically just pretending they don't know why everyone else is deeply unsatisfied by their answers.

They say things like "consciousness is a trick", or "consciousness is an illusion". Now I know a lot about illusions and tricks. But what sort of being I am is not something that could be an trick.
>>
>>1353647
Conciousness itself as it actually exists isn't a trick. People who use the word conciousness for a variety of silly definitions are tricking you, though.

>unsatisfying
"Being alone in the dark is scary" isn't a satisfying explanation for haunted houses, but that doesn't change how true it is.
