Guys. What is the difference between good and bad things. I can't decide what is good and bad anymore. What did the Greeks think
>>1177521
Something you gain is a good thing, something you lose is a bad thing. Something you gain and someone else loses and he/she is upset, then it's good/bad.

If you are too broken to have any sense of ethics or morals, then just follow the law.
Shitposting is bad.
is the human life absurd ?
>all your achievements all your ideas and thaughts and memories are eternally lost
>dont even have consciousness to reflect upon the loss of everything
i honestly dont see the diffenrence between a life that ends with tremendous professional and familial success and a life that ends at age 20 by your own hands if every shadow of a jot of your awareness of your happiness is crushed forever

The Indo-Europeans literally invented everything

This. Arabs are very tribal and they don't have the infrastructure or economic development to make the union beneficial to regional interest.
Its crazy really. Europe has less in-common then most Arab states but money talks.

Would Stirner think Hume is spooked?
>>1177364
Hume doesn't even believe in the ego. He would consider Stirner spooked.
Did people in Mao's China have access to record players or go to live music shows? What kind of music did they listen to?
I'm interested in how music was/is regulated or experienced in communist states in general, but particularly Maoist China.
Obviously there is political music played at ceremonies and on television, but was pop music a thing for eastern Europeans in the 70s? My interest in this topic was piqued by reading about Shostokovich, the Soviet composer, and seeing people listening to western music on casette in a library in Pyongyang.

In the USSR, they had lots of pop musicians, (state owned) record labels, musical instruments, etc
the most popular soviet russian pop songs come from movies

>thinking your post should be taken seriously while using a slur like abos, niggers, chinks, or kike
I'm not disregarding that post because they have a negative opinion on a group of people, I'm disregarding that because they used an ad hominem while supposedly trying to have some serious thread. There's a reason no one does that in academia.
>4chan is academia
toppest kek
>>1176834
Well yeah, of course, but a lot of threads try to attempt it.
And there are certain embarrassing examples of that attempt where the OP just casually uses a slur as if it was some statement accepted among historians.

Fucking pretty awesome for a mere pirate.
He ruled the Mediterranean Sea when he took hold of Algeria
I'm from Canada and we have a large number of people of Polish and Ukrainian ethnicity. Is there any reason why there's why these two produced the largest emigrant numbers from Eastern Europe? I think I've met a total of 3 people in my life that are Czechoslovak decent, but literally the majority of people I know are Ukrainian.
>>1176760
I'm Czech and I know a guy who used to live in Canada in 80's and thought he would stay there, but returned right after the gommie regime fell.
>>1176760
Ukrainian immigration to Canada happened back in Austria-Hungary days since Eastern Galicia was extremely overpopulated and life there was pretty shitty. Ukrainians from the Russian controlled territory migrated Eastwards to Siberia and Far East generally, there was a lot of them back in the day there. Canada was chosen because they could live the same farming life there in exchange for development of Western provinces, and USA was essentially taken by people who had arrived there earlier, like Irish or whatever.

Napoleon, Hitler, Stalin and Caesar got nothing to honor their name and yet Amerigo Vespucci can't be erased from the maps ever. How it is even fair?

Napoleon, Hitler, Stalin and Caesar got nothing on Ugruk son of Asdruk, yet everyone knows them but not him. Perhaps opportunity is the greater part of success, eh anon?

Who was the most evil person in history? Who's actions had the worst consequences for humanity?
>inb4 morality is a spook
>>1176389
The bombings on german civilians was pretty horrible. Hamburg, dresded and berlin being the largest I think. children, babies, mothers, burned alive in a blazing inferno.. And after that Bolsheviks came in raping an estimated 2million woman and children.
Stalin is prob the most known evil but Churchill is the lesser known evil
Napoleon, easily.
