what was the name of that pre-WW2 German author that wrote how stereotypically non "aryan" germans were typically the most fanatical Nazis because they knew that they were on the fringe of being considered racially acceptable. Note how the entire high command of the nazi apparatus were a men who were mostly dark-haired, brown-eyed and somewhat short by german standards and who personally proved the lunacy of the aryan "race" as a concept by their mere existence

So, before the site went down there was a thread about serious, rigorous, economic books about socialism, and economics in general, so, not "pop economics", anyway, any good recommendation of serious economics books?

Is all radfem literature like this?

This shit is some of the most ludicrous, hyperbolic grievance mongering I have ever read. There's interesting shit floating around in here, but it is drifting in a sea of "every man is a wife-beating rapist who caused all the world's problems." Even though the book is directly comparing Zionism and feminism and seems to advocate for a lady Israel, it's mostly just couched in whining about men. Dworkin doesn't even have the fucking stones to be a strong Zionist. She's one of these wishy-washy Zionists who thinks that Zionists and Palestinians can co-exist, and maybe one day Israeli and Palestinian women can come together and unite against their REAL enemy: men! (lol) (lmao)

What's the leftypol take on this book? I'm not trolling - it's existence has haunted my life. I was raised catholic… Christianity has both ruined & saved my life and my opinions on it have only gotten more complex.

Some of the greatest art of all time has been religiously motivated. But the question of Christianity specifically is a big one. On one hand all manner of brown people are more sincerely christian than a lot of white people have ever been. It might be the one thing saving Africa right now!

But on the other hand The first Roman Empire & Greek empire were polytheistic & they might have achieved a civilizational peak that surpasses the situation we live in right now. Christianity is very homophobic & a huge portion of Europe/UK demographics are atheist & seem to be some of the happiest nations on earth. Christianity might even be the reason that the Roman Empire fell & is responsible for a lot of really bad imperialism & colonialism.

What am I supposed to make of it? Jesus was surely a good man, no? The word of god has saved homeless, sick, and morally corrupt. Where does the justification to do evil come from when people read this?

Every book, chapter, page, and parable Nietzsche has ever written, is "the invalid is the parasite"; a lap dance with a woman's butt in your face.

In America, we call that the Central Intelligence Agency; the son or daughter of a woman in a battered women's shelter, and a military marital counselor and therapist on private medical pharmacy.

The CIA, and related organizations managed by the "Company", the insurance numbers out of American Univerisity in Dubai, UAE, can't marry into the police, sheriffs, or dean's guilds.

Otherwise, if one of ours evades, man or woman, we get a new "spy movie"; we figure out how you killed the badged spouse, and put it to film.

I earned "Mandelbrot Sequence", a DC Comics author; Cassie-Leigh Stock, Move On Political Officer; "American Ultra", the film designed to kill a Move On Feminist Critical Informer, every time; only if she approaches anything from an accountant to a military staff general.

When a repression through force of extended marriage (through brokers attempting a farming annex of labor and empire) occurs, the logical method to remove is to spot method and unit, and return to the own soil.

In highschool, I was dropped my fat for muscle, but I was going to make the fatal decision of winning the Class Presidency; a highschool police officer, and a gay man's role, managing the Reunion.

I read "Moonraker", to discover "Hugo Drax"; Samuel de Champlain, founder of Quebec, Quebec City, Montreal, and George Washington's penmanship expert on the US Constitution to replace the failed Articles of Confederation, 1776-1780; Washington, first US President, 1780.

Before that, non-taxed states in Norman Sicilian vendetta over semen.

What explains bad grades in someone fascinated by subjects tied to above-average intelligence, who is also socially awkward and isolated? This is the worst possible combination. Meanwhile, 6ft 4 charismatic chads get perfect grades and enter the nation's best colleges for law or medicine.

Post too long. Click here to view the full text.

New research shows China leads research in 90% of crucial technologies & ignoring this means we're living in a delusional bubble, where we still think the West is the Sci-Tech leader.

I think a lot of people are in denial, or just can't accept that China is already the world's leading nation for science and technology. I can't blame them for their ignorance. Most English-language media studiously avoid mentioning it. Time and time again, I see topics like AI, space & robotics covered, with only developments in Western countries talked of, as if China doesn't exist. Despite the fact that it's now the leader in so many fields.

The problem with complacency and ignorance is that it gives you a really distorted map of reality. You can't understand how the 21st century is developing without factoring in China, and ignoring China means you're being delusional.
