Biggest loser in American politics.
Could have been the left-wing Trump and a real threat to Trump but didn’t have the cojones to stick with his “mass immigration is a Koch Brothers thing.” Immigration-restrictionist left populism could have been his ticket.
Asians understand commerce. Jews understand power.
That’s why Asians can go toe to toe with Jews in peacetime but in a war the Jews will roll us anytime.
Most of us perceive the world through the lenses of currency but only one people instinctively perceive power.
I don't know why people are getting mad at this article. It's basically a recapitulation of Julian Jaynes' "bicameral mind" theory, which postulates that prior to the Bronze Age collapse, ALL PEOPLES (not just the Greeks) lacked consciousness as we know it.
Jaynes theorized that Bronze Age society was governed by the "bicameral mind," in which people obeyed auditory hallucinations that they interpreted as coming from "gods." Consciousness developed following the collapse as a result of its gradual weakening through the spread of the written word as well as the sheer number of calamities that ended the Bronze Age. He traced the formation of consciousness by contrasting the ILIAD (in which the characters have no inner life and their actions are determined by external intervention of the gods) with the ODYSSEY (where Odysseus is a conscious trickster who uses his guile to outwit the gods themselves). In his formulation, schizophrenia is a vestigial modern remnant of the bicameral mind.
Jaynes' own research showed that pre-Columbian civilizations in the Americas still retained the bicameral mind at the time they made contact with Europeans. That's why the Aztec and Inca empires fell so fast and to conquistador forces that were massively outnumbered; the bicameral mind could not conceive of deception, could not cope with novelty. The auditory hallucinations fell silent in such scenarios (documentation of Pizarro's conquest notes that when Atahualpa was captured, he was completely inert and unresisting, because the "god" voice he obeyed could not formulate a response). I'm sure this writer is too much of a coward to touch THAT part (this article is paywalled, I haven't read past the free portion), but that doesn't invalidate Jaynes' work.
Liberals literally believe the homeless person they see on the street was a working class person who lost their job or got their rent raised and and got evicted and became homeless.
And then after becoming homeless they became depressed and started doing drugs.
These are liberals that make six figures and read the NYT everyday. But they sincerely believe this is how homelessness works.
If I die in a public mass casualty event and some mutt person posts it online with this stupid ass saxophone sound effect overlaid just know my spirit will be аssrаping you in your dreams.
I feel like the era which made Western Europe much more distinctive is between 1000 and 1500AD. Before then, much of European history was like any other place, but after 1500 nobody else was like them. Don't know if it was their breeding, or war, or they just hit upon new ideas.
My 17 year old white nationalist self got one shotted by reality and stopped caring when I realized as a white 5’9 manlet I am seen more human and treated as such in 70% Hispanic & Asian California than in a place packed with 6’2 Aryan chads everywhere like Germany or the Midwest where I’m mogged to death and essentially subhuman biofuel
