There were these guys, from which the word 'assassin' literally comes

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Assassins

I personally think that their main ideas were pretty straight forward, but they drifted it into something different

Existential crises may lead people to do crazy things. Or to act in their own interests.

I know personally I had an existential crisis which led me to Nietzsche, and after years of refinement built myself my own morals that I stand by. I had to reject society though and get metaphorically and literally beat up to learn who I am and what my purpose is.

Western society forgot this and passive-aggressively structures our lives to be all one way.

Is that a philosophy? You do a disservice to Stirner.

>You know that literature is pushed as "an insight in to the human condition" (or anything more pretentious than entertainment) by the publishing-media-academia industrial complex for financial gain, right?
What the fuck? There's no evidence of such a thing

Christianity does predict it's downfall desu

It depends what you mean.

Will it die out worldwide? Not in the forseeable future. Places like Africa will always be ripe for it.

Will it die out in the developed world (America, Europe, Canada, Japan)? Certainly. That's what the demographic shift is. The Christians that do remain are very moderate in their beliefs, save for the bible belt.

Early on probably the Crimean Tatars periodically raiding the Ukrainian steppe, I think the Russian response from Moscow was usually irregular because it didn't really affect them

>>1121675

Tatars came from the east you do know that right?

He meant Crimean Tatars who lived in, you guessed it, CRIMEA and were vassals of the Ottoman empire. They often raided the areas we now know as Ukraine for slaves and loot.

Maybe you should try these things called 'books'. There are a lot of books about Mesopotamia and other early civilizations.

Comparatively, very little is written about it.

>>1121505

Comparatively? Compared to what, WWII historiography? Doesn't really matter when you're never going to learn everything that was written about Mesopotamia.

Nazi germany wasn't socialist it was Keynesian, which works really well. The government starts a lot of manufacturing projects and creates a lot of jobs that stimulate the economy. It's not rocket science.
Don't forget that Hitler also ignored the Versailles treaty which was a giant burden on Germany.

What if the majority of the people dispise democrazy?

Peisistratos was a tyrant in Athens, who had the popular support.

Really all you need is being popular, while traditions, customs, forms of government, voting and everything else that involves how you are legitimately supposed to obtain the position can go fuck themselves.

Kant was criticized in his time for being deliberately obfuscatory.

>>1121118
what do you think was his motive for that ? is it just easier write in such a style and not focus on clarity or was he just vain?

The Greeks and their dialogues are very readable

Kant was an illiterate man who should have hired a scribe

The Tractatus Logicus-Philosophicus and Wittgenstein in general avoid being convoluted

Tamerlane was set to invade China actually. But he thankfully died.

Dunno if he'd be successful. Because if he did he'd be facing Yongle, who was a military genius in his own right and was actually wrecking the shit out of the Mongs.

>>1120995
To be fair Tamrlane fucked a lot of things up before dying.
