I know Arabic has had a large influence on the Spanish language, but Arabs and Mexicans seriously just look the same.
And tons of Mexicans have Arabic last names.
How much Arab background do you think the average Mexican has in comparison to their Amerindian ancestry?

Anytime you have an invading army, they immediately kill all the men, rape all the women, and completely change the entire demographic of the region with their rapebabies. If you think otherwise you're a cuckjewniggershill, and worse, a liberal.

Is it possible to have a serious discussion of Julius Evola in here? Note, I do not want any affiliation with /pol/, or those who have not seen his works or ideology outside of 80's synth-wave image macros about riding above the Kali Yuga. I am currently reading his "Men Among the Ruins", and it is certainly agreeable. I find that most of his theories are in agreement with mine since i was a child, although his anti-semitism is strange. I feel like that was more of a product of his times, rather than a hardened hatred similar to Hitler or the SS.
>Is it possible to have a serious discussion in here?
no
He was not a serious philosopher, so no.

Why is/was sexuality and nudity considered taboo in most westernized societies and with the liberization of sexuality where do you think cultural norms are headed in terms of sexuality?
I think polyamory will become prominent, as well as bisexuality slowly becoming more relevant. I also think nudism will become more accepted though I question by how much.
>liberation of sexuality
A meme that doesn't have any basis in reality.
>>2880208
It's far too repressed in Western society at the moment still, which is why the excessive expressions of sexuality in the West (particularly the United States) came as a reaction of that. I think sexuality needs to find a good balance, I feel an extreme reaction to current trends will pop up. People already brand others as degenerates, but these are usually autistic people with sexuality issues of their own projecting onto others. I blame Christianity but especially the Victorian period for all the sex issues we have today.
As an actual nudist, I'd love for nudity to be more mainstream.
I imagine you'd have a form of Interpretatio Romana/Græca/Germanic that would bridge the divide between the different cultural spheres, as Europe became more interconnected, almost to the point of a PIE religious reconstruction.
Secondly, I imagine that we'd have a situation akin to Shintoism and Buddhism, where you'd have a folk religious base with a philosophy leading your life.
Imagine Ásatrúar and Stoicism together under common practice. Shit would be cool.
Look at Hinduism and Shinto

Why is nationalism such a bad thing? What is wrong with having pride in one's identity, culture, values, etc...
Historically, this has always been a good thing and was something people took pride in. Only recently has the social perception of this began to sour. What gives?
>>2879851
Perceptions of nationalism went sour after WW2.
Then even further after the Balkan wars.
Nationalists have a nasty habit of purging the "lesser races", which isn't fun at all if you are one of the "lesser races" or someone else conquers you.
>>2879851
Like most things it has good and bad effects. The good effects is that itncsn be used to bring large groups of people together into cohesive societies and nations that can perform certain tasks more effectively. It is not the only force that create a shared sense of identity however.
On the bad it can lead to people becoming to rigid in their ways because they expected to follows uniform culture in order to be a member of a nation. It can also result in excluding people's that don't fit into the nation. This means that the state's will have access to less resources. Also, patriotism can be used to silence those who have real and necessary criticisms of the state or nation.

>Perceptions of nationalism went sour after WW2
I would argue it was more the Great War tbqh

Face it. The Reds winning the war was Inevitable.

I was on a forum recently talking about WW1 and some Hungarian guy was really, really butthurt about the Treaty of Trianon and ranting about how he wishes the Germans had destroyed France. Give me a quick rundown. How unfair was this arrangement? Do most people in Hungary STILL care about it like that guy or is it just a fringe thing that most people don't care about?
>>2877564
It was unfair.
However they only have themselves to blame since during the Austro-Hungarian Empire, whilst yelling at the Habsburgs for MUH SOVEREIGNITY, they were in turn telling minorities within the "Hungarian" lands of the Empire that they weren't whatever they are and told them they had fake nations and they were Magyar.
Hungary needed to lose some land and were hypocrites in demanding independence while still ruling over Croats, Slovaks, etc., but got stripped of too much. Their 1941 borders are actually fine and Horthy was probably the least evil of the Axis leaders.

The thing you need to understand about the Balkans OP is that they're not people. Not being /pol/ here, but not 'human' in the sense that we think of other humans.
It's hard to put my finger on it actually, but all Balkan men have a condition of perpetual butthurt. At life, at history, at their neighbors, at other people. Someone who is always angry cannot become great and this infuriates them. To be great you need discipline, you need focus, you need a calm temperament. You can be obnoxious and cherry-pick examples like
>T-Tesla!
Tesla himself ended up penniless and having sexual relations with a pidgeon. His enormous autism suppressed his Balkanite genes for as long as they could but eventually he lost and became a pidgeonfucker.
For the few moments of their history where they finally manage to suppress their Balkanoid genes, they then had massive empires knocking upon their doors. Romans, Greeks, Austrians Turks etc etc.
And you know what- I'd be pretty fucking butthurt 24/7 if I was them too.
what are some games/movies that can feed my alternative history boner
also is alternative history allowed to be discussed here ? sorry I'm kinda new
>>2877483
I personally play:
Mount and Blade 1257 AD and Brytenwalda mods
Viking Invasion
Crusader Kings 2 HIP mod
Medieval II Total War
>>2877483
I'm basically convinced that alternate history is a waste of time because it is so rarely done well and actual history is plenty interesting by itself.
