>human wave tactics are inherently inefficient

Take 30 million men, give them some vint, and send them out to pillage.

Sounds effective to me.

>>329095
That's not how war works

In order to be a mover one inherently moves.

dude, bro, that's why it's called the unmoved mover and not the moved mover, my man

>>328963
The unmoved mover is self-caused.

He was a victim of a faulty fuzzy theoretical and ideological framework which among other things did not account for political circumstances and realities, consolidated too much power and equipped its followers with unwarranted faith and zeal.

What? No.

Why would you even need to ask that?

>>328767
Yes. George III was also a fascist. And Mao Zedong. And Ho Chi Minh. And Leopold II. And Richard Nixon. All bad people ever are fascists.

Eugenia Falleni, alias Harry Crawford, 1920
When ‘Harry Leon Crawford’, hotel cleaner of Stanmore was arrested and charged with wife murder he was revealed to be in fact Eugeni Falleni, a woman and mother, who had been passing as a man since 1899.
In 1914, as ‘Harry Crawford’, Falleni had married the widow Annie Birkett.
Three years later, shortly after she announced to a relative that she had found out ‘something amazing about Harry’, Birkett disappeared.

Here is Falleni in her natural female form.

should you listen to a police officer aiming a gun at you if you are high on horse tranquilizers and walking toward him with a knife

I'm most interested in normative ethics, justice and human rights if that narrows it a little.

Tfw have history degree,
Tfw plan of military service post-graduation shatters as I'm medically disqualified now
Tfw 3 part time jobs now and still struggling financially
Tfw significant other becomes distant.
Tfw too weak to an hero

Gun for the best grades possible. Read broadly and outside of the list. Be engaged without being an autistic, sycophantic hanger on.

If you are in a course with a practical component try and get a gig helping out a research student. You might get into academia or your resume will have enough for your potential employer to be able to read your commitment.

I'm not even sure what jobs I could even apply for

He did a number on China, which was the most advanced state in the world.

On the other hand he exported rice to persia which was a major boon to non chinese civilizations in the long run

How about you read about it yourself?

They brought a lot of good shit, they destroyed a lot of good shit.

A different kind of apes.

This seems like a question for a different board though.

Stupid people who ape intellect idolize the man for making others seem like even greater morons. He's a hero in cargo cult intellectualism.

>muh atheism
ree

why he didnt get up and leave? why he have to make a scene like that

>>328213
Because he shouldn't have to be oppressed and have religion forced on him like that

Adding religion to this board was a mistake. It's been nothing but shitposting.

Notice how the most ethnically diverse countries are the most unstable, chaotic, and violent. I'm sure this is just a coincidence.

>>328054
That map is post colonial contact, African States were multiethnic generally speaking. Had they been able to remain in all likelihood it'd mitigate your worries.

That being said, looking at a map of Europe it's really not all that different.

That wouldn't make any sense. It would cause more problems than it would fix.

The problem isn't about tiny tribes, but things like different religions and modes of living. Most of the ethnic conflicts you hear about are actually between farmers and pastorals or Muslims and Christians. Hell, Rwanda is one of the only African states with precolonial tribal borders and it experienced one of the worst genocides in African history.

Romans literally invented sexualized kissing.

Checkmate, atheists.

Christianity is.

Checkmate, atheists

Why do Epicureanfags always, always, always have to talk about how they're better than Stoics? So much insecurity, try ataraxia friend.

It has to do with the fact that democracies are founded on the ideas of John Lock

Very few have realized it but Darwin created a huge crisis for the entire first world. The very philosophical ideas that support democracy and egalitarianism have been refuted. They only make sense if Tabula Rasa is true, that people are born completly blank and can become a genius or fool based on nothing but their upbringing. If everyone has equal potential they should have equal rights. But genetics destroyed that idea. We now know people do not have equal potential.

The Leftists are aware of this and want to 'force' us to all have equal potential by handicapping the strong with legislation. Those that succeed should be punished and those that fail should be rewarded to create 'balance'.

The anti-racists want to just pretend Darwin never happened and genetics don't do anything.

Basically ever since Darwin people have been scrambling to justify our most basic rules. While people who were ahead of their time like Hitler realized we needed to completly re-write the laws.

The point is this an absolute crisis, the only egalitarianism still exists is out of custom. None egalitarian principles, like what Nietzsche are far easier to explain philosophically. As technology advances the Darwinian nature of reality will become more appearent. The 'strong' will keep getting ahead and the weak will keep falling behind (can you imagine what genetic alteration or robot slaves will do?). Given I don't think equality is going to last all it needs is a good push in the right direction and an Ubermench to execute the master plan

>hitler was not perfect but at least he believed in social darwinism
you are a retard

>>327636
all those things don't exist in a vacuum.
did Hitler really agree with social Darwinism, he was pro trade unions and government ownership.
