>I thought /pol/acks were pro-Darwinism

/pol/ isn't one person. Additionally, the idea of consciously controlling Darwinism is called eugenics. Further, the success of the monogamous societies of Europe (even before Christianity) versus the universal polygyny of their competitors belies the idea that monogamy is anti-competition.
Monogamy selects eugenic, pro-social behaviour. Further, the fact that all kinds of people pass their DNA on is a feature, not a bug. Population bottlenecks promote inbreeding and more rapid losses of traits that require cultivation. How else do you think the majority populations of the middle east went from the height of civilisation to what they have been for a long time now?

>how then, substantiate your claims

I've already given the general outline. The Greeks & Romans and then the Christian Europeans.
You are unable to tell a relevant example from an irrelevant one if you think the Mongols' defeat of the Muslims is attributable to their polygamy, since that was a result of a military campaign, not a social problem stemming from the Muslim culture. If it relates to polygamy in any way, it would be to show that the more brutish barbarian polygamists were driven to destroy the more civilised efforts of other polygamists.

>just slapping "objectively true" on your shitty rambling doesn't make it any more objective or true

I didn't object to you labelling my beliefs as NOT being objectively true, I believed you to be saying that you did not believe objective truth existed, seeing as how you play the leftist sophistry game of "tactical nihilism".

>finally an actual argument, and I concede, this is probably what would happen

It wasn't an argument though, it was an attempt at objectively deducing what the future might look like if you got your way.

My real objection relates more to this sentiment:

>women won't just choose the strongest mate by themselves?

Male-led polygamy is something with pros and cons that has to be argued against; female-led polygamy is too retarded to justify taking seriously.

The logic of polyamory-boy is that society should enshrine modern degenerate slut behaviour as how we produce the next generation:

>they're already doing this by whoring themselves out today so why not legalize it and let them marry Chad instead of settling down with some beta and leaching money from him

Let's examine the obvious alternative to UTTER AND ABJECT MALE PASSIVITY that anon is taking for granted here.
Historically, women have been (or near enough to) the "property" of their fathers or husbands. The reason why it would be this way is not complicated: men have the strength and incentive to make it this way, and it continued this way because it worked.
Where we have gone wrong only in the last 70 years at most going by the start dates in the most degenerate countries, is export the "ownership of the means of production", and thereby the ownership of the means of REproduction, to the state and the corporate entities that mesh into the modern globalised society.
What "polygamy" means in modern society, and you have heard it from the supportive anon himself, is to sanctify and officially fund the modern whore-ocracy, as if that is in any way going to produce MEN - the CORE of civilization - superior to men who are trained to function as men and not as worker drones with semen-producing dildos attached. It's not, and that's why the "western world"/"white race" is the weakest, most degenerate clump of bodily fluids in history, and thankfully this existence is not long for this world. The only thing is, if people choose to stick to this gynocentric model of ANTI-CIVILISATION, there will be no future at all for those who chose to strap themselves into their comfortable seats on the sinking ship.

>You are unable to tell a relevant example from an irrelevant one if you think the Mongols' defeat of the Muslims is attributable to their polygamy,
I don't, read what I wrote again, I was arguing against your saying that polygamy leads "in part" to the failures of certain societies by saying it was attributable to many other things instead

WHY did polygamy lead to the downfall of those societies

>It wasn't an argument though, it was an attempt at objectively deducing what the future might look like if you got your way.
it's not "getting my way" you fucking autist, I can see polygamy wouldn't work today, what my arguments boiled down to in the previous thread were disputations of your claim that
>monogamy makes better societies than polygamy,

plenty of Eastern societies and civilizations that practiced polygamy were far superior to their monogamous counterparts
but then you claimed that these societies failed in part BECAUSE of polygamy and haven't given any real reason why
because they become 'more inbred'?

TLDR: Even the "good old" polygamy was cuckoldry. Modern, "consent-based" gynocratic polygamy will be slavery and infinitely worse cuckoldry.

Go read some manosphere and NRX blogs if you want to understand in more depth how things SHOULD be, not how they WILL be under a purely passive bitch-boy culture of a female-reactive "masculinity".
Old polygamists were pack leaders, new "polygamists" (or as they are more often termed, "polyamorists") are PARASITES, plain and simple. Parasitism is slavery and death.

>how exactly?

I will state in simplest terms: people had the incentive and security to work harder in both the mundane and intellectual aspects of civilisation when they didn't have to die childless if they happened to fall outside the already privileged parasitical elite.

>WHY did polygamy lead to the downfall of those societies

It's simple really. More men did not have any stake in society that would outlive them than those that did, whereas it was the other way around in properly functioning monogamous societies. The accounts of the Muslim peasants and soldiery during the "sick man of Europe" era shows us this - inbreeding, criminality, homosexuality, laziness, lack of innovation. Of course these things are more intangible than causes like separatist turmoil, but they were there, and we see the same symptoms coming about today from these same alleged causes of the alleged degeneracy of Ottomans - effectively, lack of access to women due to hypergamy.

>WHY did polygamy lead to the downfall of those societies

I'll reiterate for the last time: because the men who did not have a chance at getting a wife and children did not have the same investment in the future as their counterparts in societies where they would have as many wives (one) allowed to them as the richest kleptocrat.
It's that simple. You see it happening today, if you're not blind.

>I can see polygamy wouldn't work today

That's a bit of a change in course from where you were last thread.

>what my arguments boiled down to in the previous thread were disputations of your claim that monogamy makes better societies than polygamy,

Well, if you accept my arguments about it not working today, I don't see how much different about it in the past, except for the modicum of sense it takes for men to be the ones in charge of the system. It still disincentivises productivity and investment - & encourages parasitism rather than mutual cooperation & mutual policing.

It isn't. Most people speak English, write and read in English. Most of the artistic materials are produced in English. People eat English cuisine, English legal system, even the most popular given names tend to be English variants. Even in terms of sport English soccer is a strong competitor for GAA. Most things in Ireland are filtered through an Anglo lense, even its own history at times. Ireland is thoroughly Anglo in character, anybody who denies this is delusional.

Good for you, you'd be surprised at how little working knowledge people in Ireland have about their mythology though. None of this is enough to deny the Anglo nature of Ireland. Language is a centrepiece of culture, trying to trivialise it won't change anything especially when "Celtic" is an essentially linguistic descriptor. Calling it "more Celtic" when there's virtually no working knowledge of Irish is a little absurd.

I understand that language is a major part of culture. But Ireland is nonetheless different from Britain. Americans play different sports (like us), learn different stories (like us). but because they have a stronger TV and radio presence, would you consider them more distinct than us from the British? Albeit, I'd say I'm more British than American, but first and foremost I'm Irish and I'll never relinquish that.

It's clearly true, a little lost on why you would bother to deny it. Thoughts, ideas, even social standing are communicated through the use of language. Cross cultural influences are even imprinted on a language, e.g. Norse words in Irish.

>>66708352
Language is just a means to an end. If I speak French does that make me French?

Ofcourse not.

Culture, what makes us unique, is the attitudes and behaviour formed and informed by the people around you.

Is a Nigerian who grows up in Ireland culturally Irish?

Ofcourse.

But his cousins back home clearly aren't as they've never been exposed to Irish people.

Well if you basically define "Celtic" as essentially "having the characteristics of Ireland", then that's just circular. Ireland certainly has the greatest claim to being a Celtic culture compared to any sovereign nation today, which is just more a statement about just how dead Celtic cultures are because Ireland's culture is not "Celtic" in any substantial sense.

I didn't like the Celtic term to begin with because it's a rather new idea. But as a new idea, it belongs to us, since it was based off Goidellic culture originally. Anyway, I'm drunk and have a busy day tomorrow, so need to sleep. Oíche mhaith.

Virtually nobody else would agree with you and languages have been used as central cultural identifiers for millennia. You wouldn't be culturally French without being able to speak French, being culturally Celtic (again, an essentially linguistic idea) without being to speak a Celtic language is a little ridiculous. Language is the very means by which people in the culture communicate, of course it is going to take on a central role. Idioms develop, often dialect is used to indicate social standing. You yourself would likely identify somebody's culture by their use of language.

Languages are not just interchangeable tools in practice, huge amounts of cultural information are encoded within them. What language you speak also decides who you are likely to be influenced by, it follows naturally that Ireland is going to be less influenced by French speakers (except the elite) than English speakers.

I have given you the definition of what makes someone intrinsically Irish or Welsh or whatever and you have tried to argue that their is an aspect of it that includes an intrinsic quality to language, something which is universally rejected.

The language is simply the vehicle, and yes you would identify someone by their accent or dialect but their is no intrinsic quality to those affectations. It is simply an identifier.

My argument is very simple I don't understand why you are having difficulty with it.

A language is built by a culture, with all its idioms, etymologies and registers. A language at a given stage represents a great deal about a culture, including history. Centrepiece seems like a perfectly legitimate word to describe that sort of thing and you haven't really given me reason to see why it's not.

Once the Gaelic order died in Ireland, it was supplanted by an English order and culture which has largely driven Ireland's modern culture and led to Hiberno English as the centrepiece of modern Irish culture. It does represent a discontinuity between Gaelic Ireland, which practised a different culture as represented by its Celtic language, and modern Irish culture which is represented by modern Hiberno English including the pervasive influence of Anglo-American media.

Even what remains of Gaelic culture is represented well enough by the status of Irish today with its grammatical simplification and Béarlachas. I think objectively it is more accurate to describe Irish culture as being Anglo with a Gaelic/Celtic influence and a living Gaelic minority culture.

Army Of Ireland

Liberty, Equality

I dunno what Dundalk is like but I know first-hand that Galway is madness and Maynooth is fairly consistent.

A lot of people say the ITs are more serious. I don't know, I mean the reputation they had where I was went to school was as "mickey mouse" places for less academic kids. I know now that university as a quality place is a meme, so maybe that is too.

Depends how one defines "work". I don't think we have compatible definitions, or are willing to come around to the other side's view.

And desu I don't think your pseudo-contrarian "optimism" is argued in good faith. r/Ireland is more likely to agree with you.

>I'm going in thinking it's going to be like We Were Soldiers, am I gonna be disappointed?

I haven't seen it, but if any presumption were justified it would be that. What did you think of We Were Soldiers? I thought it was technically and thematically very good but overall lacking much of a narrative vivacity.

Don't get me wrong, there are many things I would change about the country, but crying about democracy not working without actually being able to prove anything is a farcical position to hold.

You don't humour complaint about something until it's totally banjaxed and done you in? Okay.

>Don't get me wrong, there are many things I would change about the country, but crying about democracy not working without actually being able to prove anything is a farcical position to hold.
Before we drop this I'd like to point out that "democracy not working" is your phrasing, not mine, and likewise "prove" isn't the decisive word for this non-binary decision, a phrase like "support your case" would be more suitable.
You can "prove" that elections take place, and you can "prove" that what the majority votes for (from what they're allowed to vote for) is what is instituted, but to say that that's good or bad isn't something that's so much "proven" definitively as it supported via reference to current or historical outcomes and patterns or via logical analysis.

People didn't know what to make of it from the ads. They thought it was going to be a dumb action/survival semi-horror movie or a South American "The Patriot".
The posters were terrible, it did not convey the "kino" at all.

I think it's fortunate this movie is coming out before Bravo Nolan's Dunkirk movie. Hacksaw Ridge will not get overshadowed by the taste left in people's mouths by Dunkirk, and if HR is good, more people will go see the next big war movie, which will mean more (non-American) war movies, which will mean more interesting shit to watch.

>>66745095
IMDB gives it 4 and a half stars right now.

I can't find any info about it in Ireland other than "no Irish release date has been confirmed".

Mel pissed off the Jews (and the feminists, the blacks, the...) a decade and a half ago, so this movie not being distributed as widely as its quality or market-appeal might suggest it should be could be preliminarily attributed to Hollywood shutting him out.
