Did he predict the state of academia in the late 20th and 21st centuries?

I don't care, but he was great in Die Hard.

They're not rocks, they're minerals, Marie!

Is this a thinly veiled >muh sjws thread? I think it is.

>>7975577
do you think any discussion on 21st century academia could escape that?

Everytime I read the word 'SJW' my brain automatically swaps it for 'Decent, Empathetic Human Being'
>>
>>7975607
Oh wow really? Mine swaps it for "spoiled misled faggot"

>>muh revolution
Marx and Hegel can suck it.

>>7975607
the supposed empathy only extends to the correct tribes
>>
>>7975607
So not being a SJW means you are an undecent, cruel non-being? Is this the war of all against all

I watched a snail crawl along the edge of a straight razor. That's my dream; that's my nightmare. Crawling, slithering, along the edge of a straight razor... and surviving.

Its easy to get famous when all you do is espouse the doom and gloom of the days ahead. Cranky old people do it all the time; they and their crackpot traditionalist kids eat Spengler up.
>>
>>7975607
Because you're retarded.
>>
>>7975607
but this statement in and of itself betrays a lack of empathy by suggesting that anyone in the outgroup is automatically a bad person
>>
>>7975607
That would only be true if they were genuinely empathetic. What they refer to as empathy is actually ideology.

And even then, empathy isn't inherently good either.

>How drab, how feeble, how utterly devoid of conviction it all was! Where we expected heroes we found ex-convicts, journalists, deserters roaming about yelling and stealing, drunk with their own importance and impunity, ruling, deposing, brawling, and writing poetry. It is said that such types have sullied every revolution

I watched a Whale protest on the edge of a Lib arts school. That's my dream; that's my nightmare. Screaming, triggered, on the edge of a free speech protest... and surviving.

They're vicious, puritanical, and fanatical

SJW ideology and political action is liberal McCarthyism

I just finished pic related, and I dont understand why /pol/ isnt a bigger fan of him. He blatantly says that multiculturalism is undermining western civilization and all the good it stands for (natural rights, progress, the betterment of man) by focusing on the misdeeds of core NATIONS within the civilization. He praises Spengler throughout and shits on Islam as inherently violent, Sinic culture as rigid and despotic, Latin culture as decadent and prone to authoritarianism.

“Of all tyrannies, a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end for they do so with the approval of their own conscience. They may be more likely to go to Heaven yet at the same time likelier to make a Hell of earth. This very kindness stings with intolerable insult. To be "cured" against one's will and cured of states which we may not regard as disease is to be put on a level of those who have not yet reached the age of reason or those who never will; to be classed with infants, imbeciles, and domestic animals.”

-CS Lewis

Spengler didn't say shit that Nietzsche didn't already cover 2bh.

>Saumel P. Huntington predicted our current predicament

Yeah well, NO SHIT. He's a fucking neocon ideologue project for a New American Century, CFR, Club of Rome, think tank cock sucker. like he didn't have inside knowledge. Are we saying the terrorists did 911 now too?

How does it account for the infighting in the Orthodox world and the Factruing between shia and sunni Islam?
