Out of Africa or multi-regional theory?

>Out of Africa theory
Idiots latching on to studies surrounding Y-chromosome DNA and mitochondrial DNA, which is an incredibly small amount of human genetics.

Not to mention they ignore recently unearthed remains of human ancestors that date back to 100,000+ years ago outside the African continent.

Why have the conservative right intellectuals largely ignored post-modern ideas as a way to justify their claims? The concepts made in them are ideal for descrediting progressiveness, and multi-culturalism. I could also totally see /pol/ jumping on board with Baudrillard's theories about hyper reality replacing the real world.

Could it be that right-thinkers are often anti-intellectual and avoid getting into philosophy in general?

I don't think right thinkers are ant-intellectual so much as the academic field today does not tend to award right thinking.

For all the good academic study has brought, it tends to be somewhat insular, and minority ideas get extra tough criticism, which makes sense if I am proposing some radical new concept, but when it bleeds over to political discourse its becomes poison.
>>
>>478286
I think it's as simple that right-thinkers aren't interested in the social sciences unless it's economics.

There's a lot from contemporary society that can be used to argue for right-wing reforms in one form or another. Two things that comes to mind are the fragmentation of the importance of classes in Beck's description of the risk society, or the importance of flexibility among individuals as well as organizations as a result of globalisation.

I'm right-center myself and vegan on libertarian grounds. The non-violence principle ought to be taken pretty serious senpai.
>>
As a leftist moving more rightward every week, I think it's because a lot of PoMo is just stuff that right intellectualism doesn't care about. PoMo spends a lot more time using flowery language to describe concepts conservatives don't even need to use metaphors to express. Rightist thought is more open to explicit theism than leftist thought is, so it doesn't have to spend paragraphs handwaving the concept of God and explaining it away; it can just get right down to it and say "When government works this way, order and/or prosperity are achieved." This is the most common form of rightist thought: the assertion that these things can be sustained at best. Leftist thought often says: "This is how governments can make the world can achieve order and prosperity." It goes beyond the statism/libertarianism divide, it's a disagreement about the nature of the relationship between the world and the state. One side sees the state as an agent for good, the other sees the state merely as an agent. Postmodern treatments of the nature of collective action ("muh revolutionary bodies") do not appeal to rightists, who feel the need for individuation as much as leftists do. Rightsts are naturally distrustful of collectives. Many would agree with Hobbes more readily than leftists would; leftists would assert more easily that an evil King deserves loyalty than rightists would, even though they would have similar reasons for giving these different assertions.

The Jews and the Roma are both ethnic groups with a tendency to not integrate into the local populations. Both have long histories of oppression in Europe. Both were killed in the Holocaust. Yet only one group is respected in the modern world, while the other is still hated, and their slurs and stereotypes are still completely normalized. Why?

>to not integrate into the local populations
Europeans will fuck a Jew. Europeans will not fuck a gypsy. That's why you see white Jews and all gypsies still look like they came straight out of India.
>>
No influential Roma groups in the Anglo Sphere to influence things.

No Roma homeland that could be carved out of a European colony.

You don't see too many Roma winning Nobel prizes, becoming university professors, running corporations, etc.

So how many people here actually speak/read Latin, Koine or Attic Greek, Sanskrit, Old English, shit like that?

Daily reminder that if you can't read the primary sources of your area of study in its original language you are the fucking definition of a plebeian

He taps into something many people are realizing about history.

If french fucks like Foucault are right, that everything is political, then history can never be genuine. It will instead be argued over and reconstructed and lied outright about.

This is mythic history. Evola only saw that how you view history is more important than what actually happened.

If thinking you came from a hyborean race that founded Atlantis makes your life more heroic and worth living then believe it; don't let your brain be cucked by PC revisionist history that tries to tell you everyone is exactly the same.

Why did the charismatic future leader of Germany have such a poor war record. Sure he got his Iron Cross, but he never made corporal. You'd think a nations leader would be at least a Captain? Even in this picture he doesn't look like much of a leader.

Hitler was actually a puppet. Heinrich Himmer was the one pulling the strings.

Apparently he was autistic as fuck until the end of the war. The mustard gas attack he received in 1918 was what supposedly removed the betaness out of him and allowed him to become the most powerful man in the world. Shit I'd take the risk of mustard gas if it bumped up my charisma like that.
>>
>>472787
Heinrich Himmler was even more autistic than Hitler. He was the complete opposite of the "ubermensch". Only because he was friends with Hitler he was able to keep his job. Just look how pathetic he looks. The Russian prisoner on the other side of the fence looks more capable.

Alright, so I'm an Austrian-American (no muh heritage shit, parents came here in the 80s) and have absolutely no knowledge of German WW2 units but I've recently had a conversation about WW2 shit with my mom and she told me that her grandfather served in the SS and told me she only remembered this patch she saw at her old place in Salzburg. I did this shitty drawing with her help and as you can see it's basically those 2 crossed drumsticks or whatever the fuck that's supposed to be and I'd love to know if anyone here knows the name of the unit who used that symbol. Thanks in advance.

Honestly vikings were pretty good, not nearly as great as pop culture makes them out to be. But the reaction against them on /his/ is equally inaccurate.

They accomplished some impressive things, they lost in a lot of spectacular ways. But at the end of the day shitty warriors don't make history.

>>475779
because other than raping, pillaging and killing innocent people they contributed exactly zero shit to the whole cultural progression of Europe. Even upon 'discovering' the new world, they left it uncolonised and frightened of indigenous people.

No other group in the Early Middle Ages colonized America either.
And yes, Norsemen did much to change and influence northern Europe, and even then through Varangians and Normans effected all corners of Europe.
The North Germanic languages survived where East Germanic did not.

Please no bait answers, its actually quite puzzling.

Majdanek Death Toll.png
106KB, 631x349px
How do holocaust believers explain the rapid changing death toll in Majdanek? It started as 2 mill then dropped more and more. In 1975 the claim was 1,38 mill death and that dropped to 360.000 in 1991. In 2005 that dropped even more to 78000 and it should also be noted that many of these gas chambers that was claimed to be a gas chamber is no longer claimed to be a gas chamber today. Also with every drop the total death toll is still 6 million somehow


https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2R6mTTrOlzE and if you want to know more about the camp the holocaust revisionists Jürgen Graf and Carlo Mattogno created a book about the camp called Concentration Camp Majdanek—A Historical and Technical Study that can be read here http://holocausthandbooks.com/dl/05-ccm.pdf

The total number of victims is controversial, beginning with the research of Judge Zdzisław Łukaszkiewicz dating back to 1948, who gave the figure of 360,000 victims.

I am trying not to make it into a picture dump side like holocaust threads normally turn into (that might be the reason why some of these threads get removed people just spam the same pictures without adding anything new) I just want to know more about the Majdanek death tolls and the story about how many of these gas chambers that are no longer claimed to be a gas chamber anymore
