Everything in the world makes sense when you realize Africans are not very good at planning, forethought and abstract thinking.

Thomas Carlyle predates Nietzsche by half a century. There are also few other men who made Nietzsche seethe as much as Carlyle. Perhaps because of Nietzsche's personal anti-heroic temperament and persona life.

Those things are materialist acts, only heroic action and the more stringent types of asceticism are able to obtain understanding of spiritualism. Perhaps those close can witness a vague approximation.

No. Prior to the Enlightenment every system was imposed from the top down, predicated on a hierarchy that was roughly analogous in their orientation across the world. Modern systems are built from the ground up to elevate the mass man and his various forms of utilitarianism. Mass Man has existed since the inception of our existence, he is the Nietzschean Last Man, the Byronic Superfluous Man, the modern consumer. He has no values beyond whatever crude urges he is encouraged to pursue.

No, of course not. I am referring to Ted K's worldview being a shitshow, as is his life and everything he suffered. I could not care waht you do for fun, or the slight you feel that your cultish leader is smeared.

Wjhat is also a shitshow.
>His political rant about Leftism for one, which he himself is included in if viewed from a sufficiently broad spectrum.
>His definition and reasoning of freedom, which is nothing more than tolerance of the most weirdest shit.
>His personal experiences that led to him developing his beliefs and views and the experiences that resulted from them.

>Mumford doesn't argue half the stuff Kaczynski does.
Because Mumford does not argue for self-inflicted retardation like Kaczynski does.

>Prognostications
- Progress is inevitable, nothing is solved by embracing anarchism and just destroying things.
- The State must be involved in the solution otherwise the State will form and subvert
- Left and Right do not matter but most be synthesized in to a useful solution, otherwise things will continue as usual.
- Democracy is part of the issue.
- His idea of Surrogate activities is largely bullshit beyond autistic, incel types.
- Over-socialization, better now described as over-civilization, now affects every major group in Western politics.

>Solutions
- Man is a rising beast and should be treated as such.
- Competition is natural and to be desired, violence is natural and to be desired, hierarchy is natural and to be desired, the physical is just as important as the mental.
- Technology is not the problem, per se. The problem is how it is applied across society. Authoritarian measures are need to forcibly restrict aspects of society in order to allow others to grow.
- Young men need to compete in physical activities
- Young men need to establish their own in-group hierarchies, even if a small percentage do not make it.
- Some aspect of autarky and self-sufficiency is needed instead of 9-5 work.
- Humans need to live alongside those of their own clade. This precludes mixed societies.

<preferably, from multiple perspectives, especially opposing ones>
>History should be balanced and impartial and all sides should be considered.

I despise you and your view of history, you make it cold, clinical and dead. It should be passionate, filled with emotion and turbulence. It should be written with an eye to invoke the feelings that motivated it and what caused such events. Your focus on slavish accuracy is nothing more than applying the scientific method to something that can never be accurate.

Carlyle, who in modernity is worthy of rule?

When your Culture matures in splendid isolation, in a comparatively safe space without constant risk of external enemies destroying all you have built, you will develop a world-view that places all emphasis on the individual and nothing on the group. Since you have not had to rely on the group of anything, not plough nor sword, you are unable to conceptualize the risk that is always present to those who have had to constantly have one eye on the soil and one eye on the horizon. Now, as the result of your worldview has fully matured and can go no further, it is slowly dawning on you that you have no protection for what the future brings. You welcomed in those who likewise can not conceptualize your view of liberty and the individual existing outside of the group. You have no defense against that which grows stronger and more determined within the very heart of your cities and towns, all you can do is whimper impotently about your liberty and rights in the same relative safety of your homogeneous countryside until such a time they come for you.

Correct take

Thomas Carlyle. Written almost two hundred years ago.
>My friend, brag not yet of our American cousins! Their quantity of cotton, dollars, industry and resources, I believe to be almost unspeakable; but I can by no means worship the like of these. What great human soul, what great thought, what great noble thing that one could worship, or loyally admire, has yet been produced there? None: the American cousins have yet done none of these things.

>America too will have to strain its energies, in quite other fashion than this; to crack its sinews, and all but break its heart, as the rest of us have had to do, in thousand-fold wrestle with the Pythons and mud-demons, before it can become a habitation for the gods. America's battle is yet to fight; and we, sorrowful though nothing doubting, will wish her strength for it. New Spiritual Pythons, plenty of them; enormous Megatherions, as ugly as were ever born of mud, loom huge and hideous out of the twilight Future on America; and she will have her own agony, and her own victory, but on other terms than she is yet quite aware of.

Anything associated with American Politics or the American style of Politics is utterly poison. It has become the cancer in the West despite all the hope and toil that went in to her earliest days.

>Pursue the heroic and pursue knowledge.

>I see Western culture as just Romano-Germanic culture, like it was throughout the Middle Ages, with the history part just being added after the European nations became Imperial, but there's no reason to believe that other nations behaved similarly during their very real Imperial eras.
I'm unsure what you mean by Romano-Germanic, saying as Germanic culture was one of the few that was preserved against Roman authority. Germanic culture (again, not Faustian in the sense you are using it) was born out of the dark gothic forests of Europe (specifically Germany) and from which grew the urge to cross out and into the darkness, to barter with the unknown for more. If we're discussing things in Spenglerian terms, we need to be clear about what is meant.

>A Chinese or a Middle Easterner might use a car, a fridge, and other assets considered Western inventions, but in the end, they are just means to fulfill the needs of a Chinese, of a Middle Easterner, and not actually culturally Western habits. He uses his car to go the Bazar and the fridge to store halal meat; nothing implies that he has accepted Western culture in any form.
I'm not sure what you're saying here. Nothing here is related to Culture, Culture is the all encompassing world-view. What one feels, thinks and even how one thinks. How one approaches technics, politics, power, the way one conceptualizes metaphysical concepts. Simply using a fridge or a car is unrelated to these no more than the plough was to past Cultures, at least it is not relevant beyond how it removes the possibility of soil-boundness or natural connection.

Given that Faustian man strikes for dominance over all that around him, including nature, all modern conveniences serve to further lift him up above nature as to better control it.

>Don't read the translation of a Professor of Anglo-Saxon History and a Fellow of Pembroke College, both at the University of Oxford.
>Don't read the translation of the man who spoke the language, loved the history, knew the meaning behind the words.
>Don't read the translation of the man who knew war, saw the heroic, knew of bravery and sacrifice.
>Don't read the translation of the man who published and essay on his translation with a very detailed and sourced explanation of why he translated parts the way he did.

It's almost as if a concerned effort is being made to favor inferior translations by unconnected peoples.

We keep our threads on topic, we discuss books related to Fascism, National-Socialism and ethnic-relations between natives and jews. Why do you think this is unwelcome on this board? This is the board to discuss it on. We don't shit up threads, like you're doing now, or like nigs and kikes do on /pol/ or even /his/. You are worse than the problem you try to highlight, but that's the goal isn't it? Try to ruin threads on subjects you feel morally justified in shitting up to prevent their growth and spread.

The majority of the followers and priesthood are so thoroughly inbred and have been so for so long that the only constant throughout their life has been Islam. The vast majority can not secularize because they do not know what that would entail. I suspect they overwhelming majority are incapable of understanding the Quran in any meaningful sense, much like the early Christians in the Latin Mass. Only this is in their language, this was set on their doorstep yet they still have no idea.

Picrel, Mohammad features in his book on Hero Worship.

Do you not understand what beauty is? A coarse and most common fur color does not convey beauty. The more rare red is far more beautiful, it catches the light as all red hues do and resembles fire. Your infantile insults do you no credit.

>The specifics of a job can be taught, just as they are to a promising enlisted man or a man who seeks a commission. When commissions stopped being hereditary, the officer corps improved greatly around the world.
Not everybody can be taught every job. Especially ones that have a rare and uncommon temperament needed. For most people, making hard decisions that affect millions are almost impossible to accomplish, it is made easier in the Liberal Tradition because they are not held responsible. Sandhurst, the most prestigious military school we have, men (and sadly women) have to qualify repeatedly to earn a spot. There is a good reason why most average men join the military they go in as general enlisted, regardless of what branch. Every single military has a shortage of Commissioned Officers because it is difficult to attract people to such a difficult position.

>I propose we ban political parties and undermine the ability of informal working groups to form, but two party systems are indeed not always the end result. Look at the nations of the European continent. Other examples like Australia or Sweden show that removing FPTP does not ensure a multiparty system, but a two-party system is not assured.
Your minarchist government is spiraling out of control, this is the problem with them. One issue begets another, which begets another. The problem is entirely solved by removal of the democratic system, when it is removed, issues can be solved once and for all and other ones tackled.

>Not him, but not all of Africa is complete hell. Homogeneity and resource abundance can lift even the basest nigger out of his natural condition.
The vast majority of Africa is a dangerous, hell pit of AIDS, violence and child-rape. Even before our arrival on the continent it was horrific. I grant you it can be beautiful and the most safest places coincide with the highest number of Europeans.

There is a desirable ground between absence of foodstuffs and mechanically reclaimed foodstuffs. Stable food production is easily possible with focus you disingenuous kike-beaks. Factory food farming is poisoning the people and the land, they have successfully collectivized the farms without anybody realizing.

Smaller local farms with seasonal produce is the way. Try to engage your cum-addled brain.

>>21464978
Not at all. You can have collectivism on the Right and individualism on the Left. The retarded take that Right = more freedoms and Left = less freedoms is just fucking stupid.

The biggest difference is how they organize their hierarchies and in what scope they view things. It is national vs international, horizontal vs vertical hierarchies.

>I can only see buildings from my window, therefore they must be flying us in to buildings
>I should fly the plane, I won't fly us in to buildings like they are.
Mass democracy is a mistake, statecraft and statesmanship is utterly beyond the grasp of most men. The craft of running and administrating a country was destroyed by Classical Liberalism.

>to think for an instant that the west is the only place for losers to exist is pretty naive no matter how you slice it.
I have never said that, losers exist everywhere in the world and always will. We can not, and should not, remove them from society. What should not exist is the capacity to move through life without conscious effort. Everywhere else now and throughout history there was always a minimum level of effort needed to just survive, we no longer have that in the West. Fascism and National Socialism will return that vitality and requirement for motion.

>I don't hold any quaint notions of revolutionizing my country. it can be fixed without relying on fascism
I don't think it can, the symptoms can be addressed time and time again, but the root cause remains open and festering. Without something akin to Fascism or National-Socialism I don't think it can be fixed.

>All political formats have the innate corruptible factor of relying on the will of man.
Why is the corruption of one man deemed worse than the corruption of an upper and lower house, filled with corruption? That survive off corruption, that trade in and deal in nothing but corruption? It is far easier to remove one corrupt man than an entire system predicated on it. With strong ethnic bonds, corruption can be mitigated to some extent. Not removed entirely, but combated somewhat.
