What makes a person good?

Why?

I have come to think that one of the elements of being a good person is doing good things, as in helpin others, not doing wrong things such as breaking the law or hurting others in legal ways, etc. This conclusion comes from the premises of:

1) good things are good
2) people enjoy good things
3) the more people enjoy good things, more good there will be

What other elements can be logically traced into the goodness of a person?

More importantly...

If a person is by default, bad. And that person hates herself for that, therefore deciding to deliberately become a better person in their own selfish interest to feel better about themselves, and does indeed become a better person, wouldn't that make the person even worse? After all, what this person does is good - but its selfish, escapist intentions are bad.

Would that be a bad good? Or should I say, a good bad?

Don't mind the hottie, I just need attention in this thread.

How well-integrated were Jews in prewar France and Germany?

From 1880-1932, could Jews ascend to the upper echelon of the nobility? Were there any Jewish counts and marquesses?

How visible and how severe was anti-Jewish prejudice on the European continent prior to the Nazi terror?

Would it be scandal for a Jew to marry into Christian nobility? Did a scion of the Rothschilds or any other wealthy Jewish dynasty pull that off?

Jews were usually isolated in jewish communities, somewhat like muslim communities of today except that the jews didn't harbor terrorists.

By the 30s Jews were basically invisible in Germany, which frightened the Nazis and helped them garner success

Why do these two countries have such a similar history and fate?
>Land Inhabited for thousands of years BC.
>Both form pretty decent kindgodms for a time before they get dominated by a huge empire (The British and the Ottoman)
>Lots of similar events happening at the same time - 1916 Irish Easter Rising. The 1916 Illindensko-Preobrajensko rising.
>Both suffering famines and crisis at the same time. Become a country at the same time (1937 IRE, 1936 Bulgaria).
>BOth in a very similar position right now. BOth shit.
>People drink and fight a lot.
>Lots of forests and songs.

Why?

Hi /his/, I have a sort of a specific question:
What happened to the german POW held in the Soviet Union after they were released? Were they allowed to go back to the other side of Berlin or Germany if their families were there?

It would be very fucking sad to be finally freed only to discover you can go back home.

Do communists see Stalin as a true communist? Or did he deviate too much from restoring power to the workers?
Was the USSR at any time the workers utopia it was supposed to be?
If so, were the atrocities committed necessary or did they detract from the ideals of the country?
I've never had these questions addressed in a non bias way. I'm curious to see how communists feel about the Soviet Union

What were the causes for the French and American revolutions? Did they influence one another?

The people were done with the bullshit and acted on it

American revolution = massive tax evasion

French revolution = a gigantic chimpout fueled by egalitarian enlightement writers

Also ignore this post: >>939399

It's never "the people". In France it was violent mobs concentrated mostly in Paris while the rest of the country didn't give a fuck. In America likewise, a handful of population was loyalist, a handful was secessionist, and the absolute majority of people just didn't care.

Basically the french won the revolution for the colonies whih plunged france into an economic shithole and after a few years of shit harvests the hungly plebs of paris began to riot for food which lead to some shitty decisions and you know the rest

All right /his/ ! Help me to create the perfect dictatorship. If you were the non-elected leader of a country, what would you do ?
>inb4 kill the jews

Keep in mind we're humanists and all and care about the well being of the many. So, I would suggest to :

1. Keep corruption under tight control. This is the biggest flaw compared to democracy where the ranks can be more easily kept fresh.

2. Make the economy work, because people tend to be less noisy with a full belly. Hitler was supported by the majority of germans because he gave them work and money to buy food after all, and we can see how much of a success the USSR was with no toilet paper to wipe yourself and empty shops.

3. Use propaganda. You don't want to get kicked because you know better than anyone else how to rule the country so you have to shit on democracy once in a while to remind the people how much they owe you.

I have a hard time about repression though. How would you treat dissidents without turning your country in a Pinochet Chile shithole tier. Training your dogs to rape the opposant's wives is fun and all but it's completely unnecessary. Is exile or prison sufficient ?

Would that work in the light of history and precedent regimes ? How far could the country run ? What are the biggest problems ? Is fascist corporation a good economical system ?
