I think you might need to consider historians are not necessarily philosophers and philosophers are not necessarily historians. We run into problems like this when we think Plato, for example, was discussing a historical atlantis when he was using a fictional bogeyman in an illustration, or if we try to understand some ancient world "meaning of life" through Herodotus. We can learn something "about history" by reading about Aristotle or Pythagorus, but their words, the concepts, were not intended for their day as a history lesson.

When you read philosophy you try to visualize what you read as if you were in the same room with that philosopher and try to see if you can think as he thinks.

When you read history you try to visualize an accurate picture of the events, that's why you ended to read many sources and see where they overlap or where they won't agree with each other and then study more why is that so.

tldr: Anarcho-socialism is regular socialism but without an authoritarian vanguard party to seize the means of production.
Bakunin predicted that the vanguard would degenerate into a dictatorship of the proletariat, and present an obstacle to the goals of socialism where the "capitalists" are merely trading hands with Party cronies. See: USSR.

It doesn't.

Are you familiar with the Afghani "bacha bazi"? Same idea. Women are cunts and you have to beat them or cover them to keep them in line, so says the scriptures and your ancient cultural standards. However, your bros like Abdul are very cool and not for sexual, because sodomy is haram. So what is a sexually frustrated man to do? Explore the grey area and fuck boypucci, obviously. They don't look like men, so it's not sodomy, but because they have feminine penises they can't be women either, and accordingly are not subject to female religious norms of chasteness and modesty.

Extremely misogynistic cultures will inevitably become homoerotic in this fashion. See also: Nazi Germany, or American gang phenomena of being on the "down low".

But bara men are objectively more attractive, though. Why not simply abolish or ignore the ancient cultural standards?

>Every Slav is Russian meme

Because they're poor and until recently were under the control of communists. Slavs only have bad reputations on online imageboards where there's too many Wehraboos who hate Russians for destroying their beloved German Reich. M-muh honor is loyalty, my furor!

>>1320333
>Why do Slavs have a bad reputation?
Old stereotypes and gaymanofaggism on the internet.

Nowadays it's mostly being the more straightforward people than average oversocialised mongrel.

It mostly seems to come from 18th and 19th century pseudohistorians, trying to portray themselves as much more enlightened and intelligent than those brutish middle age people.

It probably has something to do with the structure of the Nazi state, which was far less homogeneous than it looked from the outside. There were various factions within the Nazi state that were competing for power, and Goering's Luftwaffe was one of them.

It's an obvious matter of geography. Germany would be bound to fight wars primarily right across it's borders without the additional necessity or protection of naval forces and transportation over water. This means a war on the ground, so combined arms as a means of backing up infantry and armor is the most important usage of air.

The UK and US were separated from the European mainland (and other theaters) by large or not so large bodies of water, negating a purely ground warfare approach.

Romans near got everything they had as a civilization from the Greeks. I can't think of anything originally theirs.

Are you from a different country?

Bitches ain't shit but hoes and tricks, they love nothing more than that conqueror dick.

The natives thought they were gods

Amerindian civilizations were neither isolated from the rest of the world, nor ignorant regarding the origin of the Europeans (they didn't think that they were "gods"; that is ridiculous).

plato is honestly retarded and awful, please kill yourself

Glory to the monad and his prodigal son, Plato. Truth is indeed objective, and virtue is indeed the luster of a goldened soul, and Beauty is surely the splendor of the Real!

A split between 14/88 GAS THE KIKES RACEWAR NOW and whiny American jews exaggerating

No subjects regarding fascism, nazis, Germanic history and eugenics as well as others can never be discussed seriously on this board or anywhere on the internet frankly. Pol is bigger than 4chan now, and has combined It's user base with much of 4chan, stormfront, a large population from Reddit, and various other alternative news and neoconservative websites. Their is no end to their retardation

>it's all those /pol/ meanies fault!!
You leftists sure like acting like victims despite /leftypol/ regularly organising raids of /his/

Plenty is from my perspective.

Anything that can be understood as a social construct can be taken as a personal understanding.

If you are asking if there is objective beauty or goodness, then I don't think so.

Is rape wrong, or is that a social construct?
