Why bother? Normies don't care about that shit anyway. You can't fuck art hoes by mentioning Deleuze unless you're attractive, and if you're attractive you could fuck them by just demanding sex anyway, so why bother debasing yourself with the Deleuze roleplay? Normie men are basically the vestigial gonads of normie women at this point, with barely enough residual consciousness and testosterone to choose which Twitch/Twitter/Youtube ecelebs to get their opinions from. All these people care about is social media drama and the last 24 hours of the news cycle.

There's no point in impressing normie women, normie men are technically no longer human and will only obey you if you have a high follower count on social media, so who are you trying to impress? The zoomer teenagers who pay for access to the Onlyfans accounts of the girls at their own high school? The truckers and mischling wagies who listen to the talking heads on Joe Rogan just to pass another meaningless day working at the Sprint store? The braindead niggers who go "bruhhhh fr fr lmaoooo" to eachother all day on twitter and only respect the raw strength and alpha male energy of hip hop drag queens who call themselves shit like "Chance Tha God XxX420SnypaXxX SquarebidnezzZ?" No matter which of these groups is your target audience, they will lead you, not the other way around.

More like Dugin doesn't understand Heidegger. Imagine being someone that promotes large scale supra-national violent takeovers and revenge, e.g. China politically taking over east Asia, south East asia, and the pacific, but also championing an existential phenomenologist who talks about the authenticity of choice and the self and the ontology of care.

Dugin and his fans are pseud morons that latch onto whatever twitter fad is currently edgy. 100% you have a twitter account with a skull mask or pine tree.

>> No.15856837

>>15856775
Dugin views his philosophy as allowing for more authenticity of choice over the totalitarian liberal West, hence why 4PT isn't a dogmatic ideology, but more of a framework. Dugin holds that the Eurasian project is bounded to a more authentic way of being for the ethnos involved, then Western liberalism. Dasein is the unit of analysis for 4PT, Dugin's whole thing is based on Heidegger far more than even Schmitt, or others.
>Dugin and his fans are pseud morons that latch onto whatever twitter fad is currently edgy.
Ok, now this is 100% true. 99% of 'Duginists' on the internet are edgy altright Twitter accounts who know nothing about Dugin, which is funny because Dugin consistently says racism is incompatible with 4PT. However, you shouldn't dismiss Dugin because he's been made a meme by downies on Twitter.

>> No.15856953

>>15856837
>Dugin holds that the Eurasian project is bounded to a more authentic way of being for the ethnos involved
Dugin again doesn't understand wtf he is talking about. Imagine thinking that Chinese control over east asia and south east asia, which he promotes while holding that his philosophical underpinning is Heidegger, while not knowing that east asianers regularly pogrom the Chinese due to hundreds of years of animosity (which is funny, because Dugin thinks only liberals can be racist). There's two outcomes there for Dugin's plan, either the Chinese genocide everyone, or all those countries push the chinese back and then pogrom the remaining chinese. In either case, it's mass murder which Dugin implicitly supports because he's a moron who hasn't thought this through.

There's also the problem of Heidegger's fourfold that relates to this. Not just the mortals that live in a certain area, but their divinities as well. Like how does Dugin square the circle on that one with his support for large scale takeovers that would snuff out the Heideggerian divinities of the fourfold? It's certainly the case that the Chinese regularly mess with the divinities of certain mortals, e.g. anyone that spreads the message of Tibetan buddhists, or even stranger religions like the Falun Gong. Heidegger would not agree with this since these people are messengers of something Godly. This isn't a "liberal" thing either. He's explicitly violating his own Heideggerian ontology by allowing this sort of stuff, while you sit there and blow wind up people's ass about "authenticity of choice". He's a typical intellectual that champions thoughts over lived history, probably because he's ideologically motivated by revenge against liberalism. If you buy into Dugin's garbage, sophomoric reading of Heidegger, you're the one who doesn't understand Heidegger.

>you shouldn't dismiss Dugin
I'll continue dismissing him because he's a retard that doesn't understand Heidegger, especially his ethics and ontology. He's followers also tend to be arrogant, smug presumptuous wankers (like yourself) who are secretly harboring extremist politics and looking for a person to lean on for their totalitarian views. One minute it is Dugin, another it is O9A/Atomwaffen, another it is the Unabomber. Pre-packaged "theory" for dimwits so they can be edgelords on twitter.

It's hilarious how badly you understand Dugin. He's never once argued that ethnic antagonisms only exist because of liberals, which is something he recognizes in National Socialism as well. In any case, it's also absurd to argue that the potential actions of the Chinese negate Dugin's philosophy as the Chinese only play a smaller part of his geopolitical analysis. Dugin is first and foremost concerned about Russia, which China presents little threat to. Dugin simply sees American hegemony as a greater threat, and the last 100 years seems to be in his favor there.
>There's also the problem of Heidegger's fourfold that relates to this. Not just the mortals that live in a certain area, but their divinities as well. Like how does Dugin square the circle on that one with his support for large scale takeovers that would snuff out the Heideggerian divinities of the fourfold?
Also I found this humorous as well. Are we just going to ignore Heidegger's own antisemitism and support for the Nazi's actual actions in taking over other areas and placing them under German domination? How is Dugin's much more mild vision incompatible with Heidegger given Heidegger's support for the Nazis? Dugin's expansionism in the case of Russia also would entail full respect for the local ethnos, thus does not entail a snuffing out of divinities.
>I'll continue dismissing him because he's a retard that doesn't understand Heidegger, especially his ethics and ontology.
I'm sure you know more than him, as I'm sure you've published and translated multiple books relating to Heidegger.
>totalitarian views
If you had even a mild understanding of Dugin, you would know the entire point of his philosophy is that it is anti-totalitarian and non-dogmatic.
>(like yourself) who are secretly harboring extremist politics and looking for a person to lean on for their totalitarian views. One minute it is Dugin, another it is O9A/Atomwaffen, another it is the Unabomber. Pre-packaged "theory" for dimwits so they can be edgelords on twitter.
I already called the twitter edgelord crowd retards who don't understand Dugin in the slightest. My interest in Dugin has nothing to do with some internet spectacle extremism, but grows out of my interest in Schmitt and the rest of the Conservative Revolutionaries. It's clear your only understanding of Dugin comes from wikipedia. I would challenge you to at least watch the Michael Millerman content on him so as to avoid being intellectually dishonest in the future.

It's understandable that Kantbot is a coward given the way he looks and the fact he's facedox'd, but it's still amusing the way he will attack ideas like HBD, which are the obvious interpretation of the available evidence, and then claim he's above ideology. I mean the guy is dicksucking antiracism without even giving a single argument for doing so, antiracism being literally the most fervent religious ideology of our entire civilization at present, and then making fun of people because they believe things like conservative memes about being 'trad'.

He'll mock someone liking how castles look, and then act like a middle aged white woman if anyone points out Somalis are clearly basically retarded. Its fucking comical.

I once met a tradie at a bar who was watching the footy, then during half time they were talking about what's new with each other he said he was reading Moby Dick. He didnt go into detail on what the book was about because he knew his friends werent interested, he was more interested in talking about the football.

I think about that man sometimes. He reads for enjoyment and doesnt need to wank his dick about what he reads. He only mentioned it because it was relevant, and he forced the discourse to go away from that, not out of embarrassement for being "nerdy", but because he did not want to bore his friends with something they didnt want to talk about. There is something honourable in that.

'blacks are not more dumb', because you know you have no evidence and no argument for any such statement, so you are hiding behind this facade of aloof superiority. You are not superior, you are actually kind of dumb, and you clearly don't know why you believe any of the things you do.

It is irrelevant, a dumb person can make a good argument with good evidence. They are just more likely to make mistakes. Being dishonest is much more relevant but still ultimately not the point, the point is the actual topic not the people discussing it.

Then why call your interlocutor dumb? Why mock his "pattern recognition skills?" A dumb person may not see how he is being dishonest, so being dumb (whatever that may be) is important.

Again, you will not say a single coherent thing you think because you are afraid of having to defend any of it. All you will do is continue this embarrassing repetition.

You just know those two have seen this thread.

Funny how they block so many of their critics on twitter yet look themselves up on here anyway.

There is a rich seam of autodidactism among the working classes, particularly in Britain. Pit miners in the North East quoted Virgil and Homer on the job, and set up hundreds of working men's institutes and lending libraries.
