Hi everyone, my wife and I have been in Canada for two years and we've had a tough time. A few months ago we opened a restaurant and it hasn't been very successful. We're really in debt because of it. I'm leaving a GoFundMe link in case anyone here is a millionaire and wants to help out, haha
It would also be helpful if someone works in the oil industry and wanted to hire me, haha. Thanks for reading!

Yeah, this is a good point and makes analyzing OG communist revolutionaries interesting. For example, otherwise it would be easy to dismiss Stalin as someone who only cared about his personal power over the ideology, but when you look at the state of communist movements in Russia when he joined them, it sure as hell couldn’t be just some personal power/wealth minmaxing decision but more of an almost certain losing bet.

>Looking at Lenin or Mao and thinking they must have just been trying to get power from day one is like seeing someone win more money from the lottery than a Doctor makes in a year, and concluding that the natural thing for an ambitious person to do is quit school and play the lottery.
Retarded take. """Revolutionaries""" want the power to shove their contrarian opinions down everyone's throat and there's only one way to get that kind of power.

Japanese always rapes mongolians slavs into submission.

it wasn't wrong though. after the Cold War ended and gommunism had been defeated everyone kind of had no sense of purpose anymore and it was like "This is it?" nothing to do except live in your shitty suburban home and commute to your mindless cubicle slave job. that was the 90s mentality and in a sense we never recovered from it.

Just because you are demoralized and useless doesn't mean everyone is. Elon Musk achieved his dreams with spaceX. Life changing movies get directed and video games get developed often by independent artists who never thought they'd make it. Trump showed the power of one man never backing down in politics and the culture war.

I wish people actually read the book instead of making it a proxy to hold discussion on whether or not neoliberalism is the best model possible.
His argument is actually not that related, it's a hegelian-kojèvian analysis of liberal democracies, where the "end of history" rather means "the pinnacle of political development".

Of course his argument got completely obliterated by the failed attempts at nation-building, the rise of China, and the rise of slopulists

To be fair Franco was the one who turned Spain from being Africa-tier in the 1950s to becoming a wealthy first-world country in the 1970s, even tho it happened at the twilight of his life.
>>
>>18522366
Salazar wasnt strictly bad. He brought political, social and economic stability to Portugal.
The main criticism is that he was a dictator, but that's about it. He was a Pinochet of his time (or Xi Jinping if you'd like). There will always be a debate whether dictatorship can justify stability and growth.

So which era had the best aesthetic? For me it's the Heian period, or the Victorian era

Unlike in the US, Spain imported the feudal system over wholesale from Europe which meant you had a ruling class of land-based nobility that valued being the unquestioned gods of their own private little fiefs, contrast to the US which did not import the feudal system and had a much more cosmopolitan and urbanized ruling class focused more around mercantilism (especially in the north). This was further exasperated by how Spain prohibited it's colonies from trading or interacting with each other, which strangled any unifying identity from forming among the ruling classes in its crib, which feeds back into point 1 about the Spanish-American elite each wanting to stay their own little petty monarch. Again contrast to the US, where the 13 colonies were all economically interdependent with each other and had a single unified ruling class that had a nascent singular identity as "Americans".
Then there's geography. Most of South America is either Catachan Death Jungle or Frozen Mountaintops. Only a few coastal areas are really suitable for industrial society.

Academia is only bad to anglos who think they should be able to teach at the best schools in the finest coastal cities of the anglosphere. It’s not that hard to find a job if you are willing to move to Puxwuckkistan, Nebraska or outside the anglosphere.

Think of all the foreign profs who came to teach at your school. Do you think their first choice was to leave their nation? This is especially true if you didn’t go to a place like Oxford or Harvard, but some shitty state school. What’s stopping you from learning Spanish and going to teach Roman History in Mexico or some shit? Maybe being forced to speak some sermo vulgaris will help you think about Rome in a new way, too.
