the jews are a race of reptile human hybrids bread by the alien reptiles to control the world. The reptiles are yaweh and adam and eve were the 1st male and female hybrids. So far they have succeeded to destroy humanity and the reptiles orbiting our planet will take over. The jews didn't just take the form of humans though, there were also jewish hybrids that were responsible for the extinction of the dinosaurs and the rise of the mammals.

Has anybody read this book? I mean, these concepts are so fucking abstract and vague. Would love to see some thoughts on simulacra and hyperreality to get a better grasp of these concepts. Does this shit even mean anything ?

Simulacrum is, well.

Do you know what a cargo cult is? Essentially it's tribals constructing crude copies of airforce that used to be stationed on their islands, thinking that if they copy it hard enough, humanitarian aid that came with the airforce will reappear.

Now imagine people who're constructing something that doesn't even exist, yet vehemently claim it's real. That is simulacrum; not just "shape over substance" but "shape without substance".

At least that's how I understand it.

Let's say that the Roman Empire and the Aztec empire had existed and flourished at the same time, and they came into contact in Roman times, at the height of Roman and Aztec military and civil power. Who would come out on top?
Assumptions include:
>both sides have greatest generals and leaders
>both sides are not impacted by other empires in the world militarily, but diplomatically and trade wise they have contact
>war is not a necessity, but is allowed along with economic and diplomatic victories as well.
What would happen /his/?

Personally, I think war would be inevitable. Both empires are conquest based, and arguably conquest would be necessary for survival. Also one other assumption, they are not separated by water. On the same continent.

>"Why should it be "moral" for a man to have sexual access to many females (many wives) but "immoral" for a woman to have sexual access to many males (many husbands)?

>This basic sexual inequality between men and women where women have been considered the "property" of the male has, in fact, been a curse on humanity. It is one of the single most important factors that has contributed to sexual exploitation and violence against women and children. Why is it that sexual exploitation and violence against women and children is highest in those cultures (primitive and modern) that are characterized by punishment of pre-marital and extra-marital relationships? And conversely, why is it that those cultures that permit pre-marital and extra-marital sex are peaceful and non-violent cultures?" - by James W. Prescott, Ph.D.

>Specifically, in my study of primitive cultures, I found the following statistically significant social-behavioral characteristics of cultures that punished pre-marital and/or extra-marital sex: 1) slavery is present; 2) low female income; 3) personal crime is high; 4) kin group is patrilineal; 5) wives are "purchased"; 6) sex disability is present; 7) intensity of sex anxiety is high; 8) castration anxiety is high; 9) bellicosity is extreme; 10) military glory is strongly emphasized; 11) killing, torturing and mutilation of enemy captured in warfare is high; 12) a high god is involved in human morality; and 13) supernaturals of the culture are aggressive and violent.

>The opposite patterns of behavior were found to characterize those cultures that accepted pre-marital and extra-marital sexuality. For any objective observer of contemporary cultures, it is apparent that the above patterns found for primitive cultures also characterize modern cultures. The greater the sexual restrictions on the female the greater is the violence of that culture. Why? And what are its implications for a major reconstruction of the male-female sexual relationship; the family and children; and society?


sorry for the wall posts

tl;dr monogamy only breeds stupidity and violence

>Before answering these questions it is important to note that some of the above relationships in the human primate have also been observed, in part, in certain non-human primate species. For example, in those non-human primate troops where the female freely mates with most or all of the males in the troop it has been found that the males are typically protective of the female and her offspring.

>The opposite pattern is typically found in the harem organized troops (one male having exclusive sexual access and dominance over the females in the troop). When the Alpha male is displaced by a new male in the harem organized troop the new Alpha male will typically kill the nursing offspring sired by the previous Alpha male. Sociobiologists interpret these events as evidence for the new male acting to promote his "genetic" fitness over the prior Alpha male. I strongly oppose this interpretation. A more plausible interpretation is the exercise of dominance and power over the female which is accomplished by the male mounting the female. This is not possible with a nursing female, thus, the nursing infant is killed so that the female can recycle, become sexually receptive and be mounted by the new Alpha male.

Its not. The retarded idea that it was is what lead to women aping men and becoming equally promiscuous.

Any Nihilists here? I am a Nihilist. I am currently attempting to formulate a notion of 'heroic nihilism'.

>>301003
It is extremely crude at the moment and is likely to be derivative and better expressed by somebody who I have yet to read. I accept the basic nihilist premise, that ascribing any form of meaning to life is a distraction from life itself. Life is merely the passing of time, which, when we are aware of it, transfers from boredom to horror to dread. Now, I believe that rather than creating some kind of ideal to strive to, we must accept the world for what it is, be confidant in our understanding that there is no meaning and behave accordingly. My own form does not yet exclude any kind of behaviour, suicide would be permitted if it was performed out of the realisation that one cannot satisfy the desires which they have.

Search your heart, /his/, you know it to be true. Alexander Hamilton created the apparatus to our strong economy and the others in the top tier understood that compromise and proto-globalism (in the trade sense) would make America great.

Jefferson was just a piece of shit fan fiction writer obsessed with fucking his slaves and >muh small farmers. If there's anyone in American history who needs to CHECK HIS PRIVILEGE. Jefferson does.

When will this meme die? Nationalism has existed since ancient Greece, they viewed the Persians and other tribes in Europe as inferior to their Hellenistic superiority

That's not nationalism, desu. Nationalism is connected with the system of the nation-state, which began in the 19th century.
>>
It wasn't political nationalism though, they didn't try to unite Greek people under one flag, and they had no problems with allying "barbarians" against each other from Peloponnese War onward.
>>
Nationalism =/= "ethnicities exist". It's more about the concept of a nation state which really didn't exist until the late 18th / early 19th century.

When did the American accent start to develop, and when did the American people generally stop sounding British?

Is the depiction of the founding fathers and characters in movies and shows about early America speaking with British accents historically correct, or were there already differences by that time?

It didnt
Americans speak the way Brits spoke in 18th century
Meanwhile, British accent degenerated from 1783 to nowdays into the faggy thing it's now
>>
The British accent that you, for example, hear on BBC is fairly new.

During the founding of America both the Americans and the British would of had an accent that sounded somewhat like a modern Scottish accent.

The HBO miniseries John Adams does the best job of demonstrating that accent.
