What is a better way to describe different ethnic groups than broad skin tone classifications?
Also what are the sub groups of "white", "black" ect?
>Tfw I'm seen as looking "white" rather than "anglo-saxon"
What is the most modern and detailed classification of race?

IT'S COMING BACK AROUND AGAIN
Were there other countries in history that claimed to be both republics and monarchies at the same time?
Is monarchism and republicanism mutually exclusive?
>>3217844
Constitutional Monarchies such as Great Britain are one. If you mean a system in which the monarch was elected, you're looking at the HRE in which princes voted for the new Emperor
>>3217847
>UK
Well, even though it is a democratic state, there is a republicanic movement in the UK that seeks to end the monarchy. PLC was oficially called the Republic of Poland (or of both nations), while maintaining the Kingdom of Poland and Grand Duchy of Lithuania as its subdivisions.
I am also not looking for countries that are elective monarchies (like HRE, like Vatican, like Malaysia and like Poland before 1569), but a state that calls itself a republic and the head of state is a monarch. I can even find examples of kingdoms in which head of state wasn't a king (interwar Hungary and Francoist Spain), but not the other way around.
Which philosophy do you associate with?

Can someone give me clear "insights" from modern continental philosophy? Or Nietzche?
It seems to me that all of it is intentionally vague, makes unfalsifiable claims about important sounding issues (economy, capitalism, society, how to live life) while aggresively trying to seem the most authoritative mode of thought, intentionally obscurantist to hide its flaws and fundamental assumptions, and is ranked mainly on self perpetuating fashions.
It seems also that philosophical discourse selects against simple or falsifiable ideas and selects for obscurantist or illogical but widely applicable philosophies.
I've seen so much discussion about Nietzche but read nothing other than a few trivially obvious things, a load of bullshitty things, and people claiming those trivial or bullshitty things were ironic and he actually supported other trivial or bullshitty things.

Stirner and Right-Wing philsophy and theory?
or is it even compatible with the left?
Ive just came across this part of a book i am reading and it explains how its incompatible with the right or the left for they still base themselfs on Structeralism
The Qoute is from ''From bakunin to lacan anti-authoritarianism and the dislocation of power by Saul Newman''
Why would anyone try to attach Stirner to a 'wing'? To attach a thinker who advocates complete individualism, to a collective.
What a ridiculous premise
>>3217725
Because our brains are pattern seeking organs that compartmentalize reality and dont just judge every single occurence individually, if we did, we would be second guessing every single moment of our existence.
>OH WELL I CANT ASSUME THAT LION OVER THERE IS JUST LIKE THE OTHERS AND WILL MAUL ME IF I GET TOO CLOSE, WERE ALL INDIVIDUALS AFTER ALL
^^^"Individuals" who die off quickly
>>3217773
This has to be a facetious interpretation or, most likely, you just haven't read a single page of Stirner.
I'll leave you to it.

reminder that the true issue plaguing the world is accepting jesus christ as your personal savior into the spiritual kingdom of heaven, vs a false judaizised and talumidized christianity that claims jesus christ will rule over the physical world for 1000 years, aka the spirit of a collective kingdom of humanity without the personal redemption of Jesus Christ

I cri everytim at the injustice perpetrated towards the celitc languages by the engl*sh. I mean, scotsmen, irishmen, and welshmen all hate the english, right, why do they keep using their accursed germano-french mongrel language ?

Scotsmen ARE English.
What is important?
>>3217426
To you? You tell me. In the abstract? meaningless question, importance is a qualifier not a noun, things are more or less important, they do not posses a quality of "is important". You might as well ask "what is largeness?"

Alright /his/, do any of you know of any good resources chronicling the history and specific beliefs of Syndicalism? Ever since I discovered it, I've been very interested. It sometimes seems almost too good, as if the lack of actual syndicalist government has left it as a very positive looking "what if" when compared to the much more authoritarian Leninism and Stalinism.
I'm sure it had huge flaws, but I want to find the best and most objective history around with which to make my judgements.
If anyone has any major opinions or flaws in it they would like to point out, consider this a bit of a thread to discuss it's historical relevance, if you please.

Suffers from the same problem of information that destroys planned economies: Without a free market mechanism, prices can't be set perfectly, leading to unsold crap and shortages of useful items. Further, as the history of the Labour Movement should show, politicising the workfloor does not lead to improvements in efficiency, but in red tape, graft, work to rule, and ultimately uncompetitive industry and economic failure.

Hasn’t history proven that Marx’s vision of an egalitarian utopia is unattainable, inevitably creating an oligarchy more oppressive to the proletariat than the bourgeoisie it vilifies?
>>3217309
History is a spook
>>3217309
When you consider that the only model tried on a large scale was Stalinism, which retained capital, wage labor and commodity production (in opposition to everything Marx and Lenin said) no history doesn't prove anything of the sort.
>>3217309
Pretty much all revolutions replace the old government with something more repressive
Why are white europeans so fearfull?
The alphas were all killed off in the two world wars, and the manlet survivors were simmered in 7 decades of socialism.

Would you put soy and other xenoestrogens in foods if you thought it would prevent ww3? Just asking out of curiosity.
>>3217271
Like that was to prevent ww3. It was done so it was easier to reach their goals through ww3.
ww3 is already going on. The lid just didnt blow yet.
Also dont call yankees white europeans, thats a low blow to actual euros.
And what you call black, I call brown. Black people never played a role in world politics and world powers.
Either mercenaries or slaves. thats about it.
>nb4 "25 year rule":
The fucking thing has been there since 1958 (and still uses the same ancient tech), so discussing it is in compliance with the 25 year rule.

"A look inside the world’s least secure nuclear reactor"
"Today, the reactors are housed in an indistinct administrative building of the sort ubiquitous across the global south. It’s a crumbling, Z-grade, concrete-and-rebar brutalist homage of about 40 rooms perched on the University of Kinshasa’s campus, about an hour’s drive up the hill from downtown Kinshasa....
Still technically a functioning research facility, CREN-K’s offices now host just a few poorly paid scientists. Some are busy playing God with radiation to grow freakazoid plants, nobly seeking a malaria cure. Others analyse endless concrete samples for radiation with dingy computers running Microsoft Windows 2000. Caked beakers, vintage centrifuges, and dented aluminium sterilizers shipped all the way from Manitowoc, Wisconsin, are strewn about the shoebox-sized labs.
But this mothballed dream still has thousands of years of fuel, concentrated in what used to be 140 indigenously mined enriched-uranium fuel rods scattered around the compound in a few barely fortified buildings. Congolese uranium, the very kind that once filled the bombs dropped on Hiroshima and Nagasaki, has been shopped around the world, enriched and raw, in burlap sacks and suitcases weighing up to 200 pounds, destined for undesirables like Saddam Hussein and North Korea. CREN-K’s own U-235 rods — utterly enticing dirty-bomb material — have developed a nasty habit of vanishing without a trace..."

Russian conquest of Siberia seems so exciting yet is not much discussed.

How the fuck did a bunch of small exploring parties conquer such vast inhospitable lands? Also any good literature on Russian exploration and colonazation of Siberia and Alaska?
