What is /pol/'s opinion on David Irving?
I just found out about him and watched some of his lectures on Hitler and the 3rd Reich.
>>76716888
His opinion on Anne Frank was hilarious.
"I haven't read her diary, but it's bullshit because I say so."
>>76717230
Apparently her diary was written in ball point pen, which hadn't been invented yet.
Don't know how accurate that is, but pretty interesting.
>>76717306
It wasn't, although it's an often repeated claim.
What happened was that, after the war, Otto Frank went through the scraps of paper that she had written on and numbered them with a ballpoint pen. A decade or so later, they were submitted to forensic investigators, one of whom wrote annotations on the pages again in ballpoint. This was later taken as evidence by some that the diary was counterfeit (the forensic investigators concluded it was not).
What Irving did was skim read the last few pages of the diary and conclude that Anne sounded too mature. If he had read the entire thing he would have realised that she gradually becomes more serious as the war goes on.
I don't know about his other stuff. His early books are ok, apparently.
MAKE SPAIN GREAT AGAIN = HACER ESPAÑA GRANDE OTRA VEZ
So the Huffington Post has published this:
>Spain’s Nationalist Party Just Stole Donald Trump’s Campaign
>Spain’s nationalist Vox Party unveiled a new slogan this week that may sound familiar to Republican candidate Donald Trump’s supporters. The conservative party has chosen “Hacer Espana Grande Otra Vez,” as their new motto — which in English translates to “Make Spain Great Again.”
>Vox is a fringe party that was founded just two years ago and is an offshoot of the centre-right Popular Party, or PP. The party platform is farther to the right than the PP, taking a hard line against the Basque and Catalonian independence movements that in recent years have been gaining ground in Spain. One of Vox’s founders, former prison officer Jose Antonio Ortega Lara, was held captive by the Basque militant group ETA for over 500 days.
>Much like Trump, Vox opposes abortion rights and deals heavily in nationalist sentiment. However, the two differ on a number of other issues. While Trump has been a proponent of building a border wall with Mexico to curb immigration, Party leader Alejo Vidal-Quadras told the Financial Times in 2014 that Vox is “supportive of immigration.”
>its extremely unlikely that Vox will be able to replicate the same sort of surprising rise as Trump’s candidacy. During the 2014 European Parliament elections, Vox secured only 1.57 percent of the vote and failed to win any seats. The party is running in Spain’s general election on June 26, but recent polls show a race dominated by the PP, anti-austerity Podemos and the Socialist party.
I am going to vote for them. They are the non-cuckservative party. Totally anti-islam, anti-refugees, anti-EU burocrats but totally pro-European. Also, they are economically "libertarians"/Austrian Economics.
Thoughts? Any spaniard here?

Bumping out of curiosity.
All parties are corrupt.
Vox is corrupt also.
All parties have contact with CNI, Spain's intelligence service.
There are no independent parties.
Annex Portugal and the Carribean.
The Spaniards will rise again
Is this a reason women should or shouldn't serve?
That's a good reason, but we need to specify. They should serve only the cock and balls imho
>>76716823
i believe women should serve as a moral obligation. you believe in something you must be willing to fight and die for it no matter the sex age etc.

"VU alumnus Sharif Soliman examines the legal possibilities of Islamic banking in the Netherlands."
>"Islamitisch bankieren: ook een mooi alternatief voor niet-moslims die ethisch willen bankieren. Dat vindt Sharif Soliman, pas afgestudeerde ondernemingsjurist die eind mei een boek uitbracht over de juridische mogelijkheden van Islamitisch financieren in Nederland."
>"Islamic banking: a nice alternative to non-Muslims who want ethical banking. That will Soliman Sharif, newly graduated lawyer firm who released a book in late May on the legal possibilities of Islamic finance in the Netherlands."

Interest-free banking is great and all, but picking between giving my money either to the kike or the mudslime is just a cruel choice.

If Trumps wins, shall I be allowed to migrate to the US in order to escape the socialist dictatorship the EU has become?
>>76716079
America won't be taking in immigrants.
Maybe weedman will let you move to Quebec.
>>76716223
lol, they won't be taking in legal immigrants? The fuck are you on about
>>76716079
Trump is sympathetic towards native western yuros who are in distress due to their country's shitty immigration policies.
While I cannot say for sure, I have confidence that were trump to be elected, he would enact some immigration reforms to make it easier for skilled yuros to come here.
It's official.
The Amazing Atheist has endorsed Trump.
Are you ready to accept him into the group?
>>76715938
man trump has some weirdos
Sharpie in pooper, fat man.
>>76715938
He doesn't endorse Trump, really.
He just views him as a much lesser evil than "Shillary" and also a heck a lot more entertaining. He won't vote for either of them but if it comes to Hillary and Trump he wants Trump to won because it would be a fun four years and will give him a lot of content to work with.
Would the western canon of Kant-style universalized human rights principles be more effective in its argumentation against nations like China and Russia, if it used a different ethical model like, for example, virtue ethics?
It feels like nobody manages to explain why human rights are good, because the ethical model behind them is Kantian categorical imperatives that don't mean much to people whose philosophical traditions don't descend from that line of thinkers. Maybe if we used virtue ethics to explain a modified version of human rights, like "courage is a virtue, thusly free speech is virtuous because it's courageous to speak truth to power", it would have a stronger case to non-westerners.
I mean the current argument in favor of human rights has failed to convince even western leaders, surely the case made can only get better with a new ethical model, right?
hello?
>>76715917
It would be nice to apply Human Rights universally and not hypocritically in favor of one ethnic group over another ( for example, genocide of white South Africans ignored ).
Until we can reach this point, "Human Rights" can always be dismissed as hypocrisy.
>>76716552
I have a problem with the human rights being universal, though. They're not universal, and until anyone can argue why they should be with anything else than "m-muh categorical imperative!!!!~", people who don't buy into the Kant meme aren't gonna abide by them.
I think we'd have a lot more success with applying them to ourselves and others if we had a better model of ethics behind them. Utilitarianism or Virtue Ethics would both have a much stronger case when our diplomats start shitposting at China about treating their citizens more nicely.
hey im new here guys and i see that a lot of people are defending hitler. was he actually bad man or is this all just a meme :D

My dubs say he was a good man.
