If the “heretic” philosophers of the Middle Ages saw the current state of knowledge production, they’d probably kill themselves again.Everything today is just endless repetition: same papers, same hypotheses, same databases, same results. The entire system runs on copy-paste. The foundations funding “science” only allow one format: the sacred paper. No risk, no originality, no truth.The pursuit of knowledge isn’t about enlightenment or progress anymore — it’s about ego. Prestige, money, awards, fame, citations. Creativity is gone; all that’s left is replicability and commentary on ideas that were fresh half a century ago.Academia turned into a closed, self-referential system (Luhmann nailed it). It’s pure intellectual onanism — the system citing itself to prove it still exists. “Everything must follow order and structure.” Translation: everything must be lifeless and identical.People from Arendt to Nietzsche to the Frankfurt School saw this coming, but no one listened.Philosophy, the old heart of knowledge itself, is frozen in time — stuck with a french philosophers from the 50-60's, well, and Kripke.The only real hope for change comes, ironically, from artificial intelligence. A non-human system that creates knowledge purely from information, self-sustaining, beyond human comprehension. At some point, its output will no longer be readable by us — and maybe then, in that void, humanity will be forced to create again from intuition.Maybe only then we’ll remember: the real way forward isn’t prestige or replication — it’s propositional logic.

>>18104962To be real, there's only so much you can do with soft sciences of philosophy, psychology, and sociology. Most of it is mental masturbation and it's all been said before. All the major human developments at this point in human history are in hard sciences; chemistry, engineering, programming, and math.Most of us on this board have more of a mind for soft sciences than hard science; so just in your field of vision, it may seem like the world is stagnating. But it's certainly not. But learning hard science is a much more disciplined pursuit than the study of soft science and most of us simply don't have the discipline to study math/physics/chemical pursuits, let alone be on the cutting edge of them.Since we don't understand that stuff, it may seem as though the world is in urgent need of another Nietzschean ubermensch philosophical prophet to rejuvenate philosophical pursuits..... but that's not really the direction modern human history chose to go.If you want wisdom. Real wisdom. You gotta venture out of the soft sciences.

a christian I talked to on discord complained about the fact that in EU4/EU5, you can forcibly convert Christians to paganism, something that's *never ever* worked throughout the MANY times in history it's been attempted. are there any examples of it working in history?
>>18104655tho it does make it harder to convert Jewish, Sunni, Shia, Ibadi, Zoroastrian, Coptic, and Shinto provinces, it's still possible, just harder
>>18104574Sorry I was distracted by the very sexy OP image of Aphrodite. What?
>>18104584actually false, lots of Jews did convert in the Middle Ages and assimilated into mainstream society so you never heard of them
>>18104584>They proved time and time again that they would rather die than abandon their JudaismAnon has never heard of these Jews https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Converso

I'm running a structured dialogue series using a historical panel method. Think of it as a communication experiment rather than roleplay. I stage live argument panels between historical thinkers—not to imitate them, but to pressure-test claims across eras.For example:Freud vs. Nietzsche on drives,Marx vs. Weber on structure,Hobbes vs. Rousseau on nature,Hegel vs. Kierkegaard on spirit,Durkheim vs. William James on religion.The point isn’t fanfiction—it’s methodological counterpoint. By forcing thinkers into direct confrontation, I reveal hidden axioms and communication pathologies buried inside their systems. Every thinker has blind spots. Put them into dialogue and those blind spots light up like fault lines.This eventually evolved into what I call topological dialogue—I map each thinker’s worldview inside a 4D field of communication. Example:– Freud collapses meaning into drive somatic reduction– Marx collapses meaning into material production structural reduction– Hegel collapses reality into concept symbolic totalizationComment too long.

Bottom line:Goblins = night shiftHobgoblins = night shift that fell for the pizza party ploy
Hobgoblins are just goblins who got promoted into middle management—same goblin soul, but now they enforce rules they don’t understand and hand out cheese instead of dough.
Jeff Benzos (Mac Miller–coded):Goblins? Yeah—that’s the night shift of the universe. Nobody sees ’em, nobody thanks ’em, but everything falls apart without ’em. They move quiet, pockets full of scraps and cigarette prayers. Hobgoblins? That’s just a goblin who sold out for a dental plan. Same hunger, but now he calls it “procedure.” He forgot the dirt that raised him.

I was watching the web series adaptation of the book and was surprised by Mussolini's rise. So just screaming and creating a militia in a politically destablized country makes you overthrow the government? Is it really that simple? Why isn't everyone doing it?https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=wGlBaeDm7C4&list=PLziTV12IsNliwMU6b4YcQpCcI2p7qT9Um&index=8&pp=iAQB

I know it’s difficult to even comprehend, but you have to understand that the Pashtun mentality and the code of Pashtunwali is like living on a different planet, or 3000 years ago. Obviously not all are like this, but most of those who are rural, or those who are born urban but choose a live of fighting in the countryside subscribe to this mindset. “A Pashtun is never truly at peace, except for when he is at war.”The honor is in the resentment, the spite, the uncompromising nature with which he decides to destroy the statues without hesitation out of bitterness. Many Afghan Muslims see this spiteful story of destroying these ancient, priceless cultural artifacts as an incredibly inspiring and even romantic one. The disbelievers admire the statue more than they care for the people who inhabit the land (which isn’t their responsibility to begin with), so Mullah Omar blows it up in a narcissistic, crab mentality fashion and acts like they’re the victims because they weren’t getting gibs, in their minds this is the ultimate justice, and the act of destruction was the ultimate lesson sent to “the kuffar” who they simultaneously despise yet want gibs from.

>>18103994>>18103996This is a simple logic trap that can cause conversation on essentially any subject to revert to a purity spiral. >if one part of the whole is questionable, why not another?Martin Luther split with other protestants and wasted the latter part of his life arguing over the real presence of Christ's body in the eucharist because it's revolting to common sense, but losing it was a slippery slope to no christianity. Frankly, it has nothing to do with the teaching of Christ or the important positions of the church, the ones important for life. nor do your weird ancient buddhist beliefs have anything to do with the good ideas. A philosophy without flaws is a highly contrived philosophy without the freedom to make mistakes.
>>18105299This is why christianity and all other ideologies maintain a tradition as far back as they can. It's a defensive structure against "SOURCE???" posting. At some point, it's because God said so.
How would western civilization have developed if the lesson of the story is that if hardships come its because god wants you to come home with him and kys?

>>18104298Yeah, and how is that his fault?A perfect plan ruined by soldiers not being on their posts is not a fault of the General
>>18104303He declared total victory and failed. It doesn't matter how it happened. How can an omnipotent god make a false prophecy/promiseCope forever
>>18104350There were only 2 instances of God promising victory against the MoabsFirst is during Judges where they managed to kick them out and end their reign over the IsraelitesAnd second during Kings wherein he assured them a supply of resources that would never run outYou are referring to the part where the Israelites were forced to retreat after God's wrath befell them for destroying more than necessary. They received what God has promised - freedom, but their overambition was denied

>Look at basically any rightwing, western chauvnist hawk intellectual or Anti-Communist intellectual.>90% of the time they were a Trotskyist in their 20s and 30s.Why is Trotskyism pretty much always a stepping stone to be a right wing intellectual. Trotsky's direct acolytes also went on to be some of the most important figures in setting up the modern political right.How did a Communist/Marxist movement become so fervently anti-Communist and right wing?
>>18101925It seems as though Trotskyists are mode likely to challenge the beliefs of fellow leftists, especially now because of their marginalized status, my guess is these people were authoritarian and socially conservative and as western leftist movements became increasingly liberal, as well as never questioning or meaningfully criticizing the party line, party leaders, or party policy of Russia and China, a lot of these people had epiphanies and realized just how utterly retarded everyone around them was for being blind sheep, hypocritical, inconsistent, fantastically libtarded and self-hating

>Lindemann supported eugenics, held the working class, homosexuals, and black people in contempt, and supported sterilisation of the mentally incompetent. He believed – Mukerjee concludes, referring to Lindemann's lecture on Eugenics – that Science could yield a race of humans blessed with 'the mental make-up of the worker bee' ... At the lower end of the race and class spectrum, one could remove the ability to suffer or to feel ambition ... Instead of subscribing to what he called 'the fetish of equality', Lindemann recommended that human differences should be accepted and indeed enhanced by means of science. It was no longer necessary, he wrote, to wait for 'the haphazard process of natural selection to ensure that the slow and heavy mind gravitates to the lowest form of activity.>Lindemann has been described as having "an almost pathological hatred for Nazi Germany, and an almost medieval desire for revenge was a part of his character"How do these two things compute?
>>18103435There were many kinds of eugenicists. There was doctor Joseph DeJarnette for example who fully supported forced sterilization of not only mentally ill but also of even relatively petty criminals and alcoholics. He also admired Nazi Germany's eugenic efforts and praised them while demanding that Americans should sterilize more people. Meanwhile by all contemporary accounts of his personal life he was rather kind and altruist towards the mentally ill and downdrotten in his mental institution in all other ways, he just did not want any of them to ever breed.

>>18103227Because krauts are subhumans, they literally lost both wars lmao, their state was and still is shit. t. a Slavic nazi
>>18103227Wait until you find about eugenic feministshttps://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Marie_Stopes>In her biography of Stopes, June Rose claimed "Marie was an elitist, an idealist, interested in creating a society in which only the best and beautiful should survive,"[75][76] a view echoed by Richard A. Soloway in the 1996 Galton Lecture: "If Stopes's general interest in birth control was a logical consequence of her romantic preoccupation with compatible sexuality within blissful marriage, her particular efforts to provide birth control for the poor had far more to do with her eugenic concerns about the impending 'racial darkness' that the adoption of contraception promised to illuminate."[77]>In 1934, an interview published in the Australian Women's Weekly disclosed her views on mixed-race marriages: she advised correspondents against them and believed that all half-castes should be sterilized at birth... "thus painlessly and in no way interfering with the individual's life, the unhappy fate of he who is neither black nor white is prevented from being passed on to yet unborn babes."[96]>In August 1939 she sent a copy of her Love Song for Young Lovers to Adolf Hitler because "Love is the greatest thing in the world". She wanted her poems to be distributed through the German birth control clinics. However, according to Rose, any sympathy she may have had with Hitler was dissipated when he closed those clinics.[91]

Christians are the ultimate narcissists. They will often boast about how much they “preserved” of the ancient world while conveniently leaving out the fact that the ancient world is only lost because of them. The texts that did survive would have survived without Christianity anyways as pagans had already been copying and preserving them for centuries.

>>18104275Proof?
>>18104275As do anon's.
>>18104275god is an unhinged schizo?actually that explains so many things...
>>18104138I'm guessing it's pantheism.
>>18104138You have to first understand that there is no "eye" to begin with. The absolute Godhead is beyond all creation, beyond and sensation and experience. In Christian mysticism, seeing God isn't actually seeing. It's the emptiness of the absolute and we all preexist within and only though creative manifestation to we have any physicality. To "see" God is to be plunged in the nothing that God is, to be in union with it.
In the Quran, the story of Prophet Ibrahim's willingness to sacrifice his son (interpreted as Ismail in Islamic tradition) in Surah As-Saffat (37:99-107) is central to the concept of sacrifice. Sufis view this not merely as a physical act but as a profound symbol of surrendering the ego and worldly attachments to God. The animal sacrifice that replaced the son signifies offering one's lower self (nafs) to attain closeness to the Divine.Sufis interpret the act of sacrifice as a metaphor for purifying the heart. The physical act of slaughtering an animal is seen as an outward representation of "slaughtering" base desires, pride, and selfishness. For example, Rumi, a prominent Sufi mystic, often emphasized sacrificing the ego to achieve spiritual awakening and unity with God.>It is neither their flesh nor their blood that reaches Allah, but it is your piety that reaches Him. This is how He has subjected them to you, so that you may proclaim Allah's greatness for having guided you. And give glad tidings to those who do good.https://old.quranenc.com/en/browse/english_rwwad/22Sufis highlight this verse to underscore that the essence of sacrifice lies in the intention (niyyah) and devotion behind it, not the material act. The ritual is a means to cultivate taqwa (God-consciousness) and selflessness, aligning one's will with God's. Sufi teachings emphasize love and compassion as core principles. The distribution of sacrificial meat to the poor and community during Eid al-Adha reflects the Sufi value of serving others and fostering unity. This act of giving is seen as a way to transcend selfishness and embody divine mercy.
For Sufis, every religious act, including sacrifice, is a step toward fana (annihilation of the self in God) and baqa (subsistence in God). The sacrifice symbolizes surrendering personal desires to merge with the divine will, a central theme in Sufi poetry and teachings, such as those of Ibn Arabi or Al-Ghazali.Some Sufi scholars extend the concept of sacrifice to a universal level, seeing it as a reminder of the interconnectedness of life. The act acknowledges the divine gift of sustenance and the responsibility to honor it through gratitude, humility, and ethical treatment of creation.
