"Citizens of Rome, if each one of us had set himself to retain the rights and the dignity of a husband over his own wife, we should have less trouble with women as a whole sex. As things are, our liberty, overthrown in the home by female indiscipline, is now being crushed and trodden underfoot here too, in the Forum. It is because we have not kept them under control individually that we are now terrorized by them collectively. I really used to think it a fable, a piece of fiction - that story of the destruction, root and branch, of all the men on that island by a conspiracy of the women.
Our ancestors refused to allow any woman to transact even private business without a guardian to represent her; women had to be under the control of fathers, brothers, or husbands. But we (heaven preserve us!) are now allowing them even to take part in politics, and actually to appear in the Forum and to be present at our meetings and assemblies! What are they now doing in the streets and at the street corners? Are they not simply canvassing for the proposal of the tribunes, and voting for the repeal of the law? Give a free rein to their undisciplined nature, to this untamed animal, and then expect them to set a limit to their own licence! Unless you impose that limit, this is the least of the restraints imposed on women by custom or by law which they resent. What they are longing for is complete liberty, or rather - if we want to speak the truth - complete licence.

You wanna talk about "civilization?" Talk about respect for tradition. Breker never respected the classics.

In this day and age, reading classics won't turn someone into white supremacist, or even a traditionalist. Most people will just dismiss the parts that clash with their liberal worldview.

did it ever occur to you that 'women are oppressed' is not in fact a basic truth of society? Have you ever questioned this particular idea at all?

It would certainly be strange if an oppressed class was a net drain on the wealth in a society, was less likely to be killed, jailed, be homeless, kill themselves or die wokring. That would be odd

that might actually mean we would have to think aout things for a second- for example is it possible that, given the sexes are extremely different and that sexual relations are very complicated, that facile words like 'oppression' do not express the reality of what is going on?

We see the highest positions mostly filled by men, does it then follow that men are a single class acting as an oppressive agent against women?

My guess is that they would claim that the modern conception of whiteness was nonexistent in the classical period and attempt to provide examples this in the texts.

I think the problem is that they're frustrated with people having an authentic relationship with these texts (or really any element of culture) that exists outside of their dominant modes of thought and agenda. I really hope we see the development of more consciously anti-intellectual modes of relating with works of art and culture in the future. It's the only way to save them from the academic vampires.

Women, regardless of the truth value of your statement, are simply rarely discussed at all in most literature going back to ancient times.

You know you can do the same thing to men anon? DId this revolutionary thought ever occur to you?

The sexes are not coherent classes they cant oppress each other as such. For one thing the marriage, being for most of civilization the primary social institution, makes the interests of the couple outweigh those of the members of your sex to you.

Women are literally given an enormous amount of shit, willingly and through coercion by taxes, by men who have to slave away to provide for them doing often dangerous stuff. Is this 'oppression'. No, it's just the way shit is set up now, somewhat dysfunctionally, because the sexes have some interests that are aligned and others that conflict, and throughout history changes are made to reflect some flux in this situation. Feminism of the past 2 centuries is clearly a tip towards things being easier for women, but it's not so straightforward.

your rambling about Jeff Bezos is literally incohernet and has nothing to do wiht the idea of women being a net drain on wealth.

Way to miss the forest for the trees. Rape is not limited to back alleys and frat parties. Rape includes any instance of unwanted sexual penetration.

dont think men are any different, they also spend their entire lives devoted to trying to become attractive enough to get a woman, usually by gaining resources, status, etc., or if theyre naturally attractive, to mindless sex with as many hot women as possible

every example of this that I've ever seen has just been normal masculine behaviour
masculine and feminine behaviour for men and women respectively is natural and normal and should be encouraged to thrive, not beaten down for some insane notion of total, universal, enforced 'equality'

>western supremacy
while I wouldn't argue that the west is inherently superior in some kind of moral standpoint (although very obviously the west constructed the most efficient, most beneficial and most fair socio-legal-ethical systems in history), it's very, very painfully clear that the west is the best place to live, work, thrive etc. it's not perfect and nobody is claiming it is, but it's markedly better than the rest
of course not for very much longer if the west becomes increasingly 'un-western'

Regarding fascist literature, who do you recommend? I think I am a nationalist and a socialist, and I wonder if that makes me a fascist in the literal sense.

I want autarky (no imports except raw materials, and only exports if it "makes sense" or benefits our people, like using goods to buy back our debt or to get bullion back into our country). And I don't think immigration should be allowed, at least not for people with less than an MD or Ph. D. or something equivalent.

But on the other hand I also want a libertarian society regarding individual citizens (as opposed to corporate citizens). They should be able to do drugs, be Muslim (if they want, whatever), sell sexual acts, own guns, and get on a goddam airplane without taking their belts off and getting patted down.

Yeah I agree with that. We can split hairs about genetics and anyone that has a basic understanding of them can see race is mostly a social construct. But the classics were also drawn on historically by Europeans and other whites especially in the conceiving of America and The West in genera and that’s what this fight is really about. Makes me laugh my balls off when white supremacists find out they have a high level of African heritage in their genes or when people celebrating their “black identity “ discover they have more East Asian blood in them than anything else.

Suppose this hypothetical society where an annual marathon is held every year or so, passing through mountains and difficult terrain. One's performance during this race heavily impacts one's future quality of life. Naturally, we can expect that healthy, athletic people will be favorised by this, but since the entire city is organised around this race, most people, if they try, can find the ressources to help them achieve a decent enough placing at the race.

Now, the city is also known for its stormy weather and its sudden, unpredictable lightning strikes. As you might imagine, some people, despite their best efforts, do get struck by lightning ; and as it turns out, the lightning bolts in that city strike in such a way so as to never kill the victim, but always leave their soles completely burned and their feets unusable. Of course, these people end up with terrible placings at the race, and are disadvantaged compared to the rest of society, moreso than people who simply did not bother putting in much effort into their training.

Now, if I were to describe you this city and its classes, but without telling you about the lightning bolts, you would be quick to realize that people are not equal in this society, some are in better positions compared to others. You might even say that some are oppressed, just from the information that has been given to you. But this would be a mistake. Oppression is something done by an agent towards another agent, or by a group of agent towards other groups of agent. If I were to tell you about the lightning bolts, you would realize that the disadvantageness that you see is not caused by an agent because lightning is not an agent, it's a natural fact. The disadvantageness follows as a natural consequence of certain matter of facts, namely, in this case, lighthning bolts striking people.

Now, since you're a smart cookie, you might say that the disadvantageness comes not from lightning bolts, but from a certain organization of society, and that if we were to organize society differently, this disadvantage would dissapear. But I don't believe this society can exist, there is no society where having burned, bleeding soles would be beneficial in a general sense, save for a society which would arbitrarily give advantages to people with destroyed soles, but all that society would do is compensate for a natural disadvantage. The burned sole is bad in itself, not because of some particular social organization.

All this anon to exemplify one thing ; that you can't infer oppression, in a society, just from noticing that people are not equal, because the cause of inequality could always be a natural one.

I agree that the escalation can only get worse with the forming of a solid white identity with superior tastes and morality, and even culture.

However you aren’t completely right about this, even America’s judicial system is based on ideas of Greek justice and ethics. There is in fact a western tradition but it isn’t as important or as relevant as some want it to be. But if some nerd wants to feel close to these mostly good cultural ideas and achievements let them fucking have it. In an American society based on individualism and isolation it’s OKAY to let whites have this. Let us have some fun for once and maybe all this resentment and bullshit can go away.

Your analysis about American politics and identity is 100% correct and for people like us it’s very obvious what’s going on. However this bullshit idea of “whiteness” isn’t an invention of these so-called whites it’s a machination more broadly of the left, and absolutely American in nature. This is a huge problem in left politics in general as their ideas are often paradoxical and in fact place these “oppressive identities” into a higher cultural class. I mean imagine being a young person today and being yelled at that your white history has ruined every single persons life that isn’t just like them. If what we’re considering a category of “cos white males” is indeed a rea things it’s obvious that that group is indeed historically, intellectually, culturally, morally, and financially supreme and always has been. How could this young person not be quite proud of this; even if they’re fully acknowledging whatever reparations or privilege they feel they have? It’s an idea that makes these identities inseparable.

I don’t really know what we should do about this but just pretending like this is a fault of white men or the right or whatever else isn’t in fact helpful and in all actuality plus into white supremacy. This is a social problem of literally everyone and placing the onus on anything less than all of society is a huge problem and wishful thinking.

I think how you perceive this exists in an entire matrix of biases and bad ideas you’re perhaps not even conscious of. I mean I can’t exacrly blame you because the only above ground people celebrating their so-called “whiteness” are indeed problematic. But what I’m suggesting to you is taking away the tabboo about this, if our universities can celebrate cultural contributions by people across the globe there’s no reason they can’t talk about these in that fashion. In fact they were up until
The 60’s.

Guilt by association, ascribing motives to people where there are none, and overall conspiratorial thinking are things you should break free from. The act that you used this recent shooting as an example to me that you’re easily frightened and persuaded by the media. The way you link causation is bad man. As for the shooter himself, he’s emblematic of these taboos and frustrations we’re pushing under the rug. Those people might not be dead if we had simply talked to this kid and made him feel like some of his emotions and ideas weren’t so vile that he needed to kill. I’m sure his mind was full of fear and paranoia and hate which all come from the painfulness of alienation on some level.

The left has its head just as far up its ass as the right at this point, constructing arbitrary classes based on whatever definitions of privilege they can try to project onto modern day Americans that ignores thousands of years of rising and falling of different groups. The left's treatment of slavery has become a joke, for example, where they've set it as some kind of original sin of all white people everywhere against all brown people everywhere, and colonialism isn't much different.
I think American politics as a whole will never have any kind of genuine progress unless it moves out of the current paradigm of internet outrage bullshit and tries to build something else.

Interesting. I see your point about time and the rapid change of society. But by this definition it would seem that there really is no such thing as cultural or historical consistency in the modern global age.

You could argue that globalism along with other aspects and modernization is trying to strip the world of its history and lineage of identity. For example the Chinese farmers have absolutely nothing in common with their kids who moved to the burgeoning cities ten years ago. I personally believe this is partly a way to understand the rise of nationalism across the world. Nations everywhere are closing and securing their borders and embellishing their histories and identities. Americans don’t really have much to work with compared to most other places. The project of multiculturalism is an abject failure and frankly it makes me proud to see America as successful as it still is in this era. We are the only civilization to ever make this level of simmering cultures work in such a mass scale, not to mention how quick we absorb and culturalize immigrants into our prism. If we weren’t so hue there’s no way this could of happened.

I think globalization does factor into it as an accelerating force. Instead of the evolution I was talking about taking place over hundreds of years, lifestyles change so rapidly in a century or even a decade that people end up feeling a weird sense of alienation and being misplaced. Some segment of the population tries to channel that into "we don't need any of this tradition garbage at all, it's outdated, we can make our own," and another segment sprouts up as reactionaries trying to reclaim the traditions without really understanding them on a deep level. Both end up unhappy, and both will simply blame the others for their failure.
I guess you could argue a source for it as being a fundamental lack of identity. If the religion I was born into stands in contradiction to what I see in the world around me, I have no meaningful ethnicity beyond "mix of white," my country's rampant preying on other countries and even its own citizens is paraded in front of me constantly and sours my pride in it, and the community I live in is too enormous and heterogenous for me to be a meaningful part of it, then who am I? The healthy answer is a genuine self-actualized identity, but that's difficult for most people to achieve, so instead you see everything from obsessive sports team fanaticism to turning your sexuality and made-up gender into a serious foundation of your personality. In the absence of god or king or local butcher there is now a giant gaping hole in who we are, and we cling to whatever markers give us an answer we can feel good about.

Are you me? I feel this exact way. I think when we talk about the line “god is dead” we must remember that the remedy to nihilism which we now are forced to live under because of the modern world is culture in its very essence. I believe this is why you see factions fighting over culturally signifigant things like music or even sports “belonging” to these obtuse and frankly made up identities. A true intellectual can see that the most important identity is the individual and it spirals our from there. I’m not suggesting some kind of ultra individualism or esoteric capitalism or anything like that. I think the joys of life and fun and capital C culture are the true remedy. When people are happy they don’t need to cling to these facile and fragile identities. But artificial impediments like “cultural appropriation” or “muh white classics” are stopping us as human beings from experiencing the full breadth of a well lived life. True idealized multiculturalism as I believe it was conceived is an equal celebration of all things rather than a mush of rules allowing for the identity hierarchies to form. This was truly the freeing and best part of postmodernism , but it collapsed in on itself with another one of its tendrils , you know the one, moral relativism. Goddamn I’m sick of hearing about all this OLD postmodern shit. I believe me and you believe almost exactly the same thing and I legitimately do find the overemphasis of white identity being found through thing like classic works or anything else a problem however my tonic to the situation is more an approach of a steam valve, let the people have what they want. If someone wants to debate that there’s a strict lineage of white western canon ideals and traditions then they should be able to do it freely in academia and have their ideas scrutinized just like the cultural ideas of literally any other group. It seems so counter intuitive but it also feels like the only real way through this terrible moment is to destigmarize all this shit, and we can point fingers at cases of abuse on this topic from all groups political or otherwise but the solution seems so clearly to be that; because what else could it possibly even be ?

The funny thing is, those commonly identified as enemies of women enfranchisement and equality, the alt right or incels or whatever, are arguably the least discriminatory males on the planet. Precisely the reason they aren't getting sex is because they respect women and have a minimum standard of expectation on how to deal with them, which obviously the incels fall short of, and which doesn't really exist, but they believe in it so much so to actually deny themselves opportunities for sex -- when any normal male just takes it basically by engaging women with indifference.

That annoys the hell out of me, since there is literature out there in philology and classics that indicate it's a word with a few senses that capture aspects of Odysseus in figurative ways. At least one interpretation is that of being the man-of-many-plans or schemes (able to turn people's plans on themselves, or quickly adapt to circumstances). This becomes more obvious with slightly related epithets that Homer gives Odysseus, e.g. polymetis. Saying he's "complicated" is terrible and really does not do it justice. Imagine being a leftist who simultaneously talks about how awesome social justice, identity politics, and other positions are and then saying with a straight face that this kind of stuff in academia is actually productive.

In the US, birth control pills are extremely cheap and can even be gotten for free from Planned Parenthood and similar organizations. Even if you can't afford the free pills, you can still buy condoms. There's no excuse for a responsible person to get pregnant accidentally unless the BC fails. I don't know where you get this idea that birth control is unavailable.

Btw this is coming from a person in Kansas, which has some of the most restrictive laws on reproductive rights in the Union.

The whole point of these threads is that OP imitates shallow leftist rhetoric with an inflammatory pic related so that all the Anons rush in to argue to the contrary.

But we do.
We absolutely share a culture based on centuries of shared history.
Our culture is based on Christianity, the stories of the Bible mixed with native European pagan folklore, like Italy's Divine Comedy, or Portugal's Lusiads, or England's King Arthur, or Germany's Faust.
Our culture is based on the common experiences of European history--feudalism, the Renaissance, the Reformation, the Enlightenment, the French Revolution, the Industrial Revolution.
Our culture is based on the Europeans who came before us literally we wuzzing, and taking up Greek and Roman law and philosophy and architecture etc to try and elevate their culture, and we are the inheritors of that Tradition.

>What defines wealth? Dollar bills?
No retard it's goods and services. Jeff Bezos has the most wealth because millions of people use his service, and it has improved the quality of life for countless people. He has also created hundereds of thousands of jobs, to support and feed hundereds of thousands of families. So yes he is a very valuable member of society.
t. never read a book on economics.

Also btw choosing to have sex and then living with the natural consequences of that choice is not being "forced to breed like cattle". Get some fucking perspective
