Both fascism and liberalism have failed. Leninism-Stalinism is the only ideology that can save Europe
We need to rebuild communism, that's true. But i think it won't be Leninism or Stalinism.
>>18255501Lennonism and Stalinism failed? too?
>>18256757Lennonism will never fail!Long live chairman John Lennon!
Stalin is doing a freemason gesture with his hand in that pic.

I was reading Ceasar's the Gallic war recently and there was an interesting section claiming that the Brits had multiple men marry and have sex with one woman. The commentary is a bit vague on whether they believe such a practice actually existed, and if it did it was to manage population before agriculture. Was this a real historical practice both in Britain and anywhere else?
>>18256387>>18256464you know i asked an ai and it says something interesting, many men for one woman implies having a family with several men. so more people capable of doing hard labour in each family unit would mean high success, even if there's less children in that family it might be worth it in some cases idk

One of the biggest debates I see in this board and elsewhere is about who's "white" and who isn't. At some point, white people used to strictly mean someone of Anglo/Dutch/West Germanic Protestant descent (hence Uncle Ben's "Swedes are swarthy). Then it included everyone of north European (Gaels, French, and Poles alike), then it included Jews and Southern Europeans (the latter of which is still being debated to this day), then it went as far as to even include Somalis and Mestizos. Is this whiteness expansion a justification for Northerners to "we wuz" the ancient Greeks and Egyptians?One problem that arises is what does it mean, appearance-wise, that makes someone white? Pale skin? Blonde hair? Blue eyes? What about all the pale-skinned, dark-haired, dark-eyed people? Or green-eyed people with darker skin? Appearances aren't just location-based. If white=European, there's a lot of overlap with Central Asians, Middle Easterners, and North Africans. You'll find a good amount of native swarthy people in Scotland (Sean Connery), and you'll also find brighter phenotypes across Afghanistan and Pakistan. Iberians in particular (the most seethed over) have such varying phenotypes; some look swarthy, others look bright, and many in-between. Why aren't East Asians white despite their bright skin and overlap with Nords and Slavs? Why are Hispanics and Latinos generally excluded and considered their own race despite their varying ancestries? And what about all those albinos from sub-Saharan Africa? Why is "white-passing" a thing from "white?"But honestly, what's so bad about being "non-white?" Is it so important a rank to be considered "white?" Is whiteness more about culture than appearances?
>>18255193I'd say practically speaking Tajiks aren't White because they lack the cultural/historical connection with European history and White practically speaking means ancestrally European, so Georgians *feel* more White. This is not me shitting on Aryan/White racial identity. I actually point out that there were Aryans right next to what became Beijing.There is something to it meaning Christendom.
>>18255848Race is a social construct in the way that species is a social construct or anything is a social construct. The idea that there are biological lines of people
>>18255868I thought MENA being called White was mostly due to the Jesus issue (not being willing to call Jesus non-White), combined with the tiny number of actually MENA people who the law needed to deal with, so it was more simple to just declare MENA White. Idk if people actually felt that way.
>>18255919You can cut through all the deconstruction around genetics and le science by just asking what race a baby will usually be if it has two black parents or two white parents.
>>18254021They're not white.

Christianity is based on lies. Monotheism is a form of schizophrenia based on Jewish lies. Jesus' "miracles" were cheap magic tricks he learned during his youth in Egypt, Apollonius and Vespasian did similar things, are they too the "son of God"? The resurrection never happened and is all a fantasy concocted years later.Christianity is inherently divisive as each Christian sect, whether it be Protestants slandering Catholics as "Satan-worshiping pagans" or Catholics declaring crusades against Cathars and Hussites, all slander one another and proclaim their specific sect the one true church founded by Jesus and the others to be "heretical splinter groups". The very idea that anything can be a "heresy" is a Jewish lie that Christians and later Muslims were brainwashed into believing.Christianity is inherently degenerate. It believes the mythical idea that all humans are equal and the poor ought to be supported for some reason.Christianity is anti-human because it has the audacity to declare natural human impulses as "sins"Oh and btw, human sacrifice was based and if you disagree, you are a Jew. The Conquistadors were Jewish after all...

>>18257075You are still brown
>>18257025>all humans are equalNot according to what Jesus taught. But the heresy of racial blindness did destroy the church in the last few centuries.
There is nothing schizophrenic about monotheism innately but there is when it comes to christian monotheism. No matter how you look at it their are three separate identities who are equal but not the same person. Any logic to somehow explain it in a way where there is a single person is called heretical.

other. They also would get drunk, have sex with each other and beat their wives. People would act so crazy on Christmas, the holiday was outlawed by the Protestant church until the 1800s. As a matter of fact, the United States Congress- *drowned out by adults from Peanuts quacking*What did the US Congress have to do with Christmas?

I can't take ontological argument seriously. Anyone else?
>>18257239If it's imaginary, it doesn't exist and therefore it doesn't have qualities. Just because you describe something doesn't mean that it exists, I can tell you that a widanat is color blue but that doesn't mean widanats exist.
>>18257242Yeah they dont exist but it does mean widanats are blue. We're nearly in the year 2026 bro, in this age of franchise slop and fictional universes the idea of fictional things having qualities isn't some far fetched concept.

Why did the greco-roman style of Jesus cease to be represented, and why did the image of Jesus with a beard and long hair become popular?
>>18256704Christians are practicing real “Judaism”, since Christ is the perfect Jew. Judaism is all about obedience to the Law and the Prophets, and Jesus is their fulfillment. We are the true Jews.
>>18256709except the talmud?
>>18256720>talmudIt didn't exist until a gnostic cult started writing it in the 3rd to 5th century AD.
>>18256730so how did this bunch of pseudo-jews came to be? you said "no connection", so they must have come up with their judaism without even knowing about ancient judaism.

I've been reading into some of the accounts of international brigade volunteers and its something else. Its mostly French and British upper middle class, highly educated elite zoomers who came to be communist out of the Great Depression and WW1 (events they were children during) seeing the old world as dying, and seeing communism as this glorious new path to utopia. Its all this weird blend optimistic idealism with bitter resentment at the same time. They all come across as really naive in either case. On top of that, you have this sort of cabal of old crusty communist agitators who are the leaders of these young kids. When the Spanish Civil War broke out, all these old geezers got these zoomers wipped up into a fury with rhetoric and these bullshit stories about epic adventure. Then when they got there it was a complete fucking mess. No one knew what they were doing, none of it was organized, it was basically antifa troons LARPing in an active battle zone and it was so bad that many of them were sent into war without any weapons. Like this story of this machine gun unit and only one dude in their entire squad had a gun, and that was his dad service pistol from WW1 that he took with them. Of course, all these kids got ripped to shreds by the Nationalist forces, it was basically a children's crusade. For all their harping on about the horrors of WW1 and calling out the capitalist propaganda they sent them all to die miserable deaths for no good reason and their supposed forward thinking ideals, the EXACT same shit happened to them. Most of them seemed to cope by just doubling down on their bullshit rhetoric. They clearly all had PTSD. I wonder if any historian has explored this aspect of the internationalist brigades?
>>18257010>>18256995>i-i totally care about third world migrants raping european women I swear!
>>18257147This lol, their only way of arguing for Repub spain. Then they skip the part with Franco carrying out punishments for these acts + forcing offending units to charge machine gun fire
Religiously speaking, what is the correct way to approach sex? From studying theology and doing it myself, I believe that it's pretty obviously the act of the sky element fertilizing the earth element which then produces life, underneath the will of a monotheistic god. Sex is bad insofar as it violates the will of this god and good insofar as it satisfies his will. Both the masculine and feminine forms have existed long before humanity and they are replicated in sex, with the dominant role of course belonging to the solar male.

>>18255960>Also indulging in it too much can have very harmful, negative effects whereas abstaining completely by one’s own will and conscious decision has only positive effects.Actually not really. I'd say the answer is somewhere in between.
>>18257282If you're attractive but date for one reason or another, people will make assumptions, spread rumors, friends will treat you differently, members of the opposite (and the same) sex will try to "convert" you, friends will treat you differently, family will be heartbroken, all sorts of stuff. There's also the inevitability of repression. Sex is a very important part of life. It's why we exist in the first place. There's a limit to how much it is healthy to abstain for normal people, much like there are limitations on how much it makes to fast.

Did ancient people send subversive spies into the enemy's territory to convince everyone the king was a gay retard and society wasn't worth it?
According to Polyaenus, in the infamous battle of Pelusium, the Egyptians were demoralised by the Persians use of sacred animals.
