>>17441361A marxist anarchist atheist professor and feminist activist was teaching a class on Sébastien Faure, known syndicalist."Before the class begins, you must get on your knees and worship Faure and accept that Anarcho-Syndicalism is the most highly-evolved ideology the world has ever known, even greater than Social Conservatism!”At this moment, a brave, conservative, Freikorps soldier who had disbanded over 1500 trade unions and understood the necessity of Realpolitik and fully supported all Mitteleuropa satellite states stood up and held up a map of Alsace-Lorraine."Who owns this land, frenchfag?"The arrogant professor smirked quite jewishly and smugly replied “It's not not owned by anyone, fucking reactionary, its 'ownership' belongs to the communities that live on it and not any states.””Wrong. Its been 65 years since the German Reich annexed it. If it was not owned by any state, and Anarcho-Syndicalism, as you say, is real… then the workers there should have formed free labour unions by now."The professor was visibly shaken, and dropped his chalk and copy of the CGT manifest. He stormed out of the room crying those ironic syndi tears.The same tears syndicalists cry for “the working class” (which today works so few that they barely have 60 work hours per week). There is no doubt that at this point our professor, Rudolf Rocker, wished he had been conservative and become more than a brainless political activist. He wished so much that he had could find, a state to fall back on but he himself had argued against it!Comment too long. Click here to view the full text.

Iberians are lumped in with east medjeet ignoble asiatic hordes in popular culture. This blatant lie was promulgated by their Northern rivals who attacked them under the influence of east medjeet tiny hat curly-haired people that were expelled from Iberia. In truth, Iberians are just as white as French or British people and are a noble, high-trust, high-conscientiousness people who you can trust unlike mafiosi greeks, italians, albanians and tiny hats.

Botswana by contrast WAS colonized and has done alright for itself (same being true of Singapore, Chile, and arguably coastal China).

>>17441070>>17439844Cont:The only sort of ""mud"" structure I can think of that's notable that has a potentially overly speculative restoration is the one exposed stone facade of the Great Pyramid of Cholula, but as I said, that is stone, and the only reason i'd call it "mud" is just because some of the inner structure of some construction phases of the pyramid used adobe brick, and those portions aren't exposed or restored because they would decay and have already deteriorated despite being buried so there's not enough info to really restore/reconstruct them with/formAs an example, this PDF https://www.redalyc.org/pdf/369/36906602.pdf shows some photos of Casa de la Cacica (the structure in >>17441070 I posted a pic of) before it's restoration and you can see that the restoration really only tidied it up and put some collapsed stonework back on the structure, in fact the less intact room on the left they didn't even restore the stone paneling despite the fact that they probably could since there's not really any doubt of what it would look likeTL;DR some restorations change stuff or take guesses but most of them are fine, and they certainly don't just make up the entire structure. The closest example to totally making stuff up would be like the restoration of the Santa Cecilia Acatitlán, which only had foundations remaining and even then they misinterpreted them, but even in that case the overall look is at least inspired by manuscript depictions and at least works as a generalized example of a generic Aztec pyramid even if it's not ness. accurate to the exact one it's meant to be a restoration of>>17441317Slaves weren't really used for physical labor or construction much in Aztec society, slaves were usually domestic servants. I'm not sure enough on it to say they were never used for large scale labor, but if it happened it wasn't typical.

>>17440750>communist leaders were jewsanti-communist leaders; business leaders, intellectual leaders and entertainment leaders had an "over-representation" of Jews too.

/his/ bros, I read something last night that fucked me up and I'm checking in to see if I'm a retard.I hadn't heard about the Norte Chico civilization in Peru, on the Pacific coast under the littoral. Temple complexes. Very dense semi-urban development, megalithic earthwork architecture. And it's from 4000 years ago, roughly the same as urbanization in North China and the Indus River.This is blowing my shit up, how come we are not talking about this? Spontaneous civilization developing in South America about as early as the Akkadians??https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Caral%E2%80%93Supe_civilization
>>17440208>how come we are not talking about this? Because even if it had any survivors, all of them were wiped out by the spanish in the 1700s. Peru's history started when it converted to catholicism, and most Peruvians (like all hispanics) start their family history with the first convert. What came before doesn't matter because they rejected god (jesus) and go to hell permanently because of it. Most Peruvians know more Spanish history than the average Spaniard because of this, since Spanish history had significantly more influence on modern Peru than any other culture. Which is why they speak Spanish as European admixture grows every generation.
>>17440208It gets talked about on occasion, the issue is that because they had no written system or contact with any nearby literate society it's really hard to figure out a lot about them. We're not even sure how their society was organized because they didn't really leave behind any art even suggesting much about it. Plenty of art but nothing suggesting social organization. They're literally less-understood than whatever form of society the Indus River Valley Civilization was.
>>17440208take the Hancokpill !
My area is more Mesoamerica then the Andes, but as I understand it there's at least some archeologists, if not most, who don't believe that Caral or other very early monumental sites in the Andes were proper urban settlements or even population centers, and they were instead ceremonial sites that housed maybe a small group of priests but were otherwise really only used for gatherings by broader populations at specific times of yearLike, the Caral culture lacked ceramics (though they did have some visual art contrary to what some people say) as well, even. It's probably something closer to Göbekli Tepe then say Uruk, though I think some argue Göbekli Tepe was an actual population center and not just a ceremonial site now?Anyways, the reason why people call Caral a city under the above interpretation, beyond just because it has big monuments, is because it's in the interests of Peruvian goverment to call it a city because that attracts attention and allows them to present Andean civilization as early as Mesopotamian civilization. To be clear this is not /pol/ or /x/ denialism trying to assert that archeologists are making shit up like >>17440913, this is what i've seen some actual Andean archeologists say (individual Archeologists don't typically have an incentive to make shit up, state/national archeology and anthropology organizations have a bit more of a reason to do so)That doesn't mean that Norte Chico, Caral etc weren't important in the development of Andean civilization, it just means that it represents a pre urban and pre state milestone (apparently, the first or one of the first sites to pick up a proper permanent urban population and class specialists was Chavin de Huantar around 500BC after it previously also was mostly a ceremonial site, and then formal state goverment organization arises sometime over the next millenium with either Moche city-states or the Wari depending on if you think the Moche were city-states or relatively urbanized chiefdoms)
There's any flaws in Buddhism? What some of biggest criticism to Buddhism?
>>17441134hi, I did not write this >>17441182.> your coherent version of Buddhismbasically what is in the suttas, the correct discernment of dependent origination.> Explain what I am, what you are, what’s going on in existence and how you know that according to a your version of Buddhismyou are a person, so am I. about what is going on in existence, I don't care to know, and I think the suttas also don't have an answer. they only answer what is unease and how to uproot the causes of unease in one's experience.
>>17441194Suffering is an issue for all conscious/sentient beings, regardless of whether or not they understand the magnitude of it. And Buddhism strictly doesnt focus on physical pain, but the general suffering that starts with the mind. Suffering is anything that brings the feeling of dissatisfaction, of unease, of feeling of always looking for the next chase, that which the mind bears. Whether that is wanting for a better answer like we are doing, of feeling that you'll never get an appropriate answer, of the feeling of loss of sanity/inconclusiveness of discussions, etc. Even things like the feeling like shit when you get up too early or fearing the loss of your hair or feeling like your fashion isnt up to date, etc. The function of mind that which reifies things and then compares things is whats at the root of the cause here. Common meme about Buddhism is "buddhism says desire causes suffering". "Desire" in this case is the function of the mind that which reifies and which compares, creates distinction-ness and holds permanence of the impermanent, etc. And confuses unreal for real, causing the foundational collapse at the axiomatic level. Its not that I seem to think all there is is the mind, its just one entry point of Buddhism. As to why Buddhists start with the suffering, well its just where Buddha entered into Buddhism. The mastery over the state of the mind is what Buddha was taught by sages when he sought out for answers to the nature of suffering of the world and how to face them. Really, you should pick up Dhammapada and you'll get a decent grasp of Buddhism. These are basic foundational stuff that most people just dont seem to have the patience to understand or just skip them over. Including myself. It took years to get the basics right.

It seems your understanding of Buddhism is just a fetishization of suffering.So there isn’t just the mind? If it’s an entry point does the full progression include, asking again, what we are and what’s going on?

Did a person living at this time say “I’m not German, I’m Trierian?”
Yep
They would identify as a "Deutschmen" living in some region under the rule over some lord. "Deutsch" comes from the Proto-Germanic word "*þiudiskaz", meaning "that which is of a race, people, ethnicity". This root is used to translate the Greek root "ethno-" in Old English, Old Norse, and Old Saxon. So, they would identify as "a member of the (German) race in X region in service to the feudal lord Y".
