>The other theme is that this future is not necessarily a tragedy, or even a "decline." As the items in this anthology remind readers more than once, Oswald Spengler himself denied he was a pessimist: instead of The Decline of the West, he said that he might have called his big book The Completion of the West or The Perfection of the West.

Only thing the west will accomplish is white genocide, then the rest will fall apart under the nigger chimps

The truth is: There was never a west to begin with. "Faustian civilization" is a purely abstract, negative concept that has to be that vague to capture all the different civilizations under one umbrella.
The most clear division is between angloid and carolingian traditions. How can one claim they share something meaningful if they can not even understand each other? There was never an englishmen who understood Hegel and likewise not single german was an actual empiricist.

People who say "Faustian" anything besides bargain are all sub 80iq. I'm convinced you all think it sounds smart but if asked to defend the usage you'd shit your retard pants

the world empire cares not for pols petty nationalisms and crude racisms, in the future there will be a world emperor and if earth were a country it would be like brazil

this is was spengler is basically saying when he says there will be a ceaser in the future

The world empire dwarfs compared to the internal empire of the soul. You can not even conquer a single person yet you dream of world domination.

I dont dream of it, it already exists, and spengler said there would be a second religiousness, so the empire will be a city of god
