Idea (noun)
1. a thought or suggestion as to a possible course of action.
"the idea of linking pay to performance has caught on"
2. the aim or purpose.
"I took a job with the idea of getting some money together"

>Noooooo you can't quote the Oxford dictionary for to contradict my hyper autistic definition of a word that only exists in my head

Nice philosophy degree you got there

4 a: a plan for action : design
b: a standard of perfection : ideal
c: a transcendent entity that is a real pattern of which existing things are imperfect representations
5a: an entity (such as a thought, concept, sensation, or image) actually or potentially present to consciousness
b: an indefinite or unformed conception
c obsolete : an image recalled by memory
archaic : a visible representation of a conception : a replica of a pattern

Did you lie about your philosophy degree?
Did you get it because you're a token diversity student?
Or are philosophy degree just beyond worthless?

Its called evolution, dunno if you've heard about it. Something about selective pressure, survival of the fittest and passing on the best genes.

Ofc no spoils of victory but he would have saved fascism as a legitimate political doctrine not associated with nazism.

D'Annunzio was the man Mussolini should have been. if he was still alive and in charge of Italy fascism would still exist as a political force and millions of people wouldn't have died. He also achieved the corporate state in Fiume whilst Mussolini spent most of his time as duce just re-doing Russia's NEP but to a worse and less resilient effect
>>
Every time he tried something ambitious, Mussolini needed Hitler to bail him out: Greece, North Africa, etc. Made him a puppet of the very dictator he once distrusted.

I know this not because I have a higher IQ (mine's only 150) but because I've done psychedelics and I'm very confident he hasn't. He rationally argues that reality has to be self-referential, self-consistent, and self-defining. This means reality has a nature of some kind, and we just have to figure out what that thing is which fits neatly into this category. Langan notices then, that, as far as he can tell, all real and imagined things are isomorphic to a definition (they map onto each other). So he looks at this and says the self-referential/consistent/defining thing which reality is is actually a language, since it can fit in there. However he's wrong that all real or imagined things are isomorphic to a definition. Anyone who has done psychedelics has seen firsthand the ineffable. INEFFABLE. What you are witnessing DOES NOT MAP ON TO A DEFINITION. Langan can't comprehend this because he hasn't lost his metaphysical virginity yet and taken the red pill of drugs. In fact when one sees this ineffable mystical state one realizes it IS reality laid bare, like the Buddhists say. So if the nature of reality is beyond language, how can the nature of reality BE language like he says? This means he also hasn't proven the existence of god, the soul, and, MOST IMPORTANTLY, HELL. Obviously those things could still exist, but his theory is trash. Oh and he thinks unconditional love is impossible so tell your mom she doesn't actually love you the way she thinks she does because the smart man said so.

I'm not playing any word game. IQ is for individuals, the concept doesn't even apply to computer intelligence. It's just good fun to estimate the IQ it would have if it were an individual.

Your own posts are more than a little confusing in that regard. You disagree with CL's conclusions but not the premise of the CTMU or his personal philosopher-kingship. That's strange to me. Most people who disagree with his ideas also dispute his claim to record setting IQ.
>>
Neither approach fully proves metaphysical claims like Hell; they just offer different ways of engaging with reality.
>>
He's a retarded Christcuck

>>18011590
I have to challenge his IQ to prove he's wrong? How about I just prove he's wrong? That's sufficient...wtf. Just because he's smart doesn't mean he knows ultimate truth. He just assumes this is the case. Reread my criticism of his theory. The existence of the ineffable precludes reality being a language at the most fundamental level.

I'd probably just reinforce and hold the front and focus more on intelligence gathering and analysis, if possible, and try group attacks away from the front line, such as on logistics, reducing supplies to their front line. I don't know, trench warfare is fucking moronic.

Order more planes, more tanks, and more artillery. Focus them on the weakest salient, set up a shitload of reinforcing troops along the wings, then shove them forwards, shelling the fuck out of any surrounding areas to disrupt reinforcements.

Don't know why people shit on US generals so much when they pretty much did everything everything right.
Their main concern was always to avoid casualties, and they were far better at managing logistics and combined arms for overwhelming firepower.

>>
>>18012359
The kind of atheistic religiosity guys like Peterson and Zizek spread, i.e. Christianity is the accumulation of millennia of human wisdom and experience, but it's told in ways that no Rational(tm) mind can accept, therefore we are at this deadlock where we threw the baby out with the bathwater and don't know how to reconcile it because it takes irrationality to accept the cosmic truth and act accordingly - faith if you will.

Because modern "historians" are just leftist academics who chose the pathetic life choice of being a professional student. Their deep resentment towards successful people who chose a real job is evident which is why they dedicate their lives to "deconstructing" powerful proud men who make them feel inferior.

Schumpeter diagnosed this trend among academics back in the 40s.

I know this OP is a troll post and/or sperg (as is anyone who uses Anglo unironically) but to answer this seriously;
>Do their schools teach them only the good stuff?
Schools basically don’t really teach much imperial history at all good or bad. I wouldn’t even say it’s so much censorship or white washing since in my experience of state schools they still fit in plenty of general whitey bad stuff into the curriculum - especially slavery and at least in my school US civil rights stuff was thrown in there. History just covers some basic overview of Romans, Anglo-Saxons, vikings etc in primary school followed by Tudors, civil war and then a time skip to Victorians (only really focusing on industry is le bad) followed by WW1 and WW2 with the latter mostly being the holocaust. I honestly think they just can’t be bothered to fit in how and why the empire developed, how it was run, how it ended, its positive and negative influences on events etc. For the most part history is just badly organised and most students find it very disengaging, hence why English people have a reputation amongst grievance-obsessed Celtic nationalists for not caring about it since it’s mostly just a boring subject in school to our normies.
