What do we think of Nick Land and accelerationism?
>>18012039That got a slight smile out of me
>>18012039Couldn't he call it Nick Land?
>>18012027>>18012188Give me one reason why I shouldn't reduce accelerationism down to serving the most powerful entity you can find. It seems to me all new-age right wing philosophy is comped and astroturfed because it's pro authority, not influential on its own merit. To me, all these guys are political cargo cultists. They use all the words and concepts from nationalist or socialist politics, and they represent real people, but they're not a political movement in the sense of trying to achieve something politically. They just use the vocabulary to make centrism and submission sound exciting. Land is probably at the highest tier of this 'movement,' this renunciation of rights.
Accelerationism is less a political program than a lens: it frames history, tech, and society as forces to be accelerated.
A "mirror held up to reality" you might say. Very erudite.
There has never in human history been a state as singularly dominant as the United States in 1991. From the Achaemenids through the conquests of Alexander, Rome at its height, the Islamic caliphates, the colonial empires at their height, all fall short of that brief period of total unquestioned American dominance in the early 90s. The sole global superpower, an economic juggernaut, the financial and cultural capital of the world with the largest navy the world has ever seen capable of intervening anywhere around the globe. You can argue that since then America's position is weaker, but you can't deny that as of right now no other empire in history has ever been more powerful at its height.
>>18012607And why is that surprising? The general trend in history is that power consolidates over time, not the opposite. Imagine what Rome could've done with just the ability of instantaneously communicate across its vast empire.
True, but remember empires always fall as proven by the ones you just mentioned.
>>18012680Good thing the US isn’t an Empire.
/his/torical speaking what are some important events that have occurred on the 21st of September?
Hmm I wonder why Italians just kinda stopped contributing to science around the 1600s>Tried by the Inquisition and ultimately burned at the stake in Rome in 1600.>Burned at the stake in 1617 for holding heretical views on the nature of the soul.>Tried by the Roman Inquisition in 1633, forced to recant and spent the rest of his life under house arrest.Oh...
Most of the sculptures, metopes and reliefs across most ancient architecture have been destroyed or defaced by either christcuckolds or 'slimes until the modern era. It's fortunate that a few survived. What was the deal with Abrahamics and destroying art?
>>18009873>The Parthenon was converted into a Christian church in the final decades of the fifth century[107] to become the Church of the Parthenos Maria (Virgin Mary) or the Church of the Theotokos (Mother of God). The orientation of the building was changed to face towards the east; the main entrance was placed at the building's western end, and the Christian altar and iconostasis were situated towards the building's eastern side adjacent to an apse built where the temple's pronaos was formerly located.[108][109][110] A large central portal with surrounding side-doors was made in the wall dividing the cella, which became the church's nave, and from the rear chamber, the church's narthex.[108] The spaces between the columns of the opisthodomos and the peristyle were walled up, though a number of doorways still permitted access.[108] Icons were painted on the walls, and many Christian inscriptions were carved into the Parthenon's columns.[103] These renovations inevitably led to the removal and dispersal of some of the sculptures. Sometime after the Parthenon was converted to a Christian church, the metopes of the north, west and east facades of the Parthenon were defaced by Christians in order to remove images of pagan deities. The damage was so extensive that the images on the affected metopes often can't be confidently identified.[111][112]>The Parthenon became the fourth most important Christian pilgrimage destination in the Eastern Roman Empire after Constantinople, Ephesos, and Thessaloniki.[113] In 1018, the emperor Basil II went on a pilgrimage to Athens after his final victory over the First Bulgarian Empire for the sole purpose of worshipping at the Parthenon.[113] In medieval Greek accounts it is called the Temple of Theotokos Atheniotissa and often indirectly referred to as famous without explaining exactly which temple they were referring to, thus establishing that it was indeed well known.[113]
>>18010717This is just one example, and it probably helped the preservation of the Parthenon.
>>18008558Christianity is a religion built on resentment and feelings of inferiority, so it makes sense they would destroy things that remind them of their status.

>>18011184That's pretty much all Abrahamic cults. Small wonder they are so subversive and destructive to civilization.
Were inter racial BBC marriages part of old Pagan traditions among common people too or is it a characteristic of Christianity?Outside of royalty (for alliances), how does Interracial marriages among Christians now compare to Interracial marriages among masses pre-Christianity?
There was some frontier mixing, but that was it.
Tranime is for faggot waebs and I'm glad I have mature hobbies like history
How can I tell right from wrong
>>18009472How do you know Right and Wrong exist?The same way you can know they exist is the same way you can tell them apart. Assuming you have actually thought about that, and don't just assume they exist. In which case you can also just assume you can tell right from wrong.>>18011492Can you provide their names?
>>18011526The puppet experiment is one of them.
>>18009472How does the sky rabbi tell right from wrong?
>>18009472By judging, as a social animal, what is necessary for society to function and for the prosperity and happiness of fellow humans within said society, as well as making them feel like you're a valuable member of the tribe.
>>18011757Read your Euthyphro.>The Euthyphro dilemma, from Plato's dialogue, asks whether something is moral because God commands it, or whether God commands it because it is moral. This presents two problems: either morality is arbitrary (first option), or it exists independently of God, limiting his power (second option).
Everything is objectiv.Even morality, there doesn't have to be a god to tell you killing a baby is wrong.The problem is there is no need to follow morality.You are scared of concequences or it helps you sleep at night knowing you did something good. Both reasons have nothing to do with beeing good out of sake of it. So i ask why be good or even evil for that matter?
Just as you can reject moral norms, you can also embrace them for curiosity.
Why did yuros independently name both dot and feather indians indians? Like injins don't call themselves indians, it comes from mexican where columbas called them in dios like under god and curry indians call themselves hindus, like even online a good giveaway if someone is indian is if they use the word hindu to refer to indians and that india comes from some greek or latin name for a river in the region
>>18010910crazy injins invented AC, but not the wheel
>>18011531Red man not needum wheel. Have horse. Only needum fire water and thunder stick.
>>18009355>>18009364This, I tell call my Navajo gf indian and she gets all offended, and then I try to explain that she should own it because it's a cool word and hindus are hindus and not "indian"
>>18008923>Why did yuros independently name both dot and feather indians indians?They did not. To Europeans, India is everything in Asia that's not part of the nomadic steppe (Tartaria) and the Chinese Empire (China). Japan is an Indian island just like Phillipines or the topically named "Indianislandia/Indonesia".The Hindu=India is a Pajeet we-wuz and their doing. British India didn't specify any India or Indians, they ruled everything from Somaliland to Malaysia as "India" with "Indians" in it. Perfectly in line with the above definition.Columbus came across brown Asians with squinty eyes, yellow-brown skin, etc. It's not exactly hard to see why he accepted these folks for Indians no different from Japs, Pinoys, Viets, Burmese and whatever the fuck have you lives in SEA, i.e. India.TL;DR: Indian we-wuzzing of an ancient name. Has mostly fuck all to do with whites.
>>18012075makes sense that indians would just be lazy and steal the name>>18011860>calling them hindus
Uh Schultz, care to explain these surnames?
>>18011125Nazis were racist based on blood % not surname or patrilineal ancestryIf you were 3/4 or more German then you were German in their eyes
Schultz literally means constable, from Schultheiß. That’s why it’s all over German-speaking lands.
>>18011125I always pronounce him Otto Scorsese, can't help myself
>>18011264Romanian "da" comes from latin "ita" tier.
>>18011125Skorzeny was an austrian of partly slavic ancestry, probably from somewhere around the area (czech or slovakian).Zelewski was from kashubian nobility (not polish).
Interracial marriage is forbidden in scripture (Ezra 9:1-2, Ezra 9:10-14, Ezra 10:1-3, Ezra 10:10-14, Neh. 9:1-2, Neh. 10:28-30, Neh. 13:1-3, Neh. 13:23-24, Neh. 13:27-30), and racial separatism is scriptural (Acts 17:26, Deut. 32:7-8, Gen. 10, Gen. 11:6-9).ITT you discuss what caused Christianity to turn away from God by embracing the heresy of racial blindness.
>>18012281Jesus in the NT pretty much outlaws divorce, which is why Roman Catholics are so weird about it with their anullments and stuff.
>>18012285There is good and there is better. Then there is best. It is best to never divorce.
>>18012115The word "race" literally does not appear in the Bible, because the concept of there being multiple races of humans did not exist until well over a thousand years after the Bible was written.
>>18012201>All gods are mythologies>All holy books are fictionalwe won't know the truth until we die so that's a pretty wide assertion to make
>>18012291not all words have always existed but different "races" of people have always existed. "Nation", for example, is a word that once had a meaning close to that of what we now call "race", but when nation stopped meaning a specific type of people, race was created to clarify the distinction.the way language changes, and the meanings of words change, is important if you care to know what the Bible actually says.
Sintashta had absolutely 0, zilch to do with spread of I-Ir.The first chip of the nonsensical Kurgan theory of Gimbutas has fallen, with PIE rightly moving south of steppe.The data in the papers itself has dealt a second big blow to the steppe origin of I-Ir theory, via the Hasanlu and Dinkha Tepe samples. By 1000bce, these locations were already Iranian, as approved by your big momma Kuz'mina. There's no shred of Sintashta or R1a related ancestry at those sites till the last sample dated 500-600bce. What we instead see is a big chunk of bmac related ancestry and some armenia/catacomb related yamnaya and R1b ancestry. We also see a sample with 20% swat_nosteppe ancestry and another with swat specific L1a2 Y hg.Viktor Sarianidi: 1Kuz'mina, Anthony, Mallory: 0This new pre print BTFO'd the Cucktashta cope again. Its over, over.
>>18012304? Irrelevant
>>18012330It was not Sintashta that entered India, just as it was not yours whom you call your father who copulated with your mother. It was Andronovo, "Steppe_MLBA", which is identical to Sintashta itself.>but there is no evidence that the main BMAC population contributed genetically to later South Asians.>yazit is not Indo-Aryan
>>18012097>>18010347The pooper deep state has finally exposed itself by admitting that they hide important genetic data of ancient Indian samples with help of government. There's no need to call people "nordicist" or "conspiracist". Information regarding Sinauli sample with 80% Sintashta ancestry was leaked which effectively proves that Aryan migration is truth
>>18012330The Indo-Aryans were likely a large offshoot of the Fedorovo branch of Andronovo. Some shot off way to the West and became the Mitanni, some went Southeast through the Khyber Pass and became the Rigvedic people.

As a Euromutt of mixed Slavic and Germanic heritage I think that nationalism is stupid and retarded and that Europe should be united and multiethnic (among other Europeans)
>>18011367>Incompetent, barely ruling central power>Squabbling member statesWhat do you think the EU is?
>>18009253>As a Euromutt of mixed Slavic and Germanic heritage I think that nationalism is stupid and retarded and that Europe should be united and multiethnic (among other Europeans)So you're 100% German
>>18009253Kinda agree, nationalism of small nations was a disaster for Europe.
>>18009253United how? I like the confederal model, which is basically what we already have with the EU, but I would rather be once again divided into completely separate states than merged into a federation or a unitary state.
>>18009253No>>18009260Poles are hated because of Polish behavior
What does the Bible say about cancer?

Neither this man nor his parents sinned… but this happened so that the works of God might be displayed in him.
