but the circumstance and conditions of it can be expanded to be pretty bad, depending on what's acceptable for terms of contract
To be certain we are referring to the same exact thing
Voluntarily becoming a slave for someone to fulfil a task for X amount of time to pay something off
@Gservator I'm speaking specifically of ancap philosophy on self-ownership, not broad historical opinions
@Miniature Menace I'm not talking to you
@Gservator "Historians would disagree"
This is not you talking to me then? Okay.
Yeah, I am certain there is a point of promised service where it crosses the line of trade to what amounts to slavery
Way too tired to really consider the nuance of where that is right now, though
In the Aztec empire if you didn't pay off the debt you became a sacrifice
So, historians would disagree with voluntary servitude being excluded from slavery?
Yes
I was mostly remarking upon that the accusation that the libertarian-right is okay with slavery or some shit is apparently not such a baseless accusation as I thought
Even if inaccurate, there is reasonable basis to think that if those are the ones that they have seen
Granted, I consider myself neutral/indifferent to the liberal/conservative axis
Well, first, I get the impression that there would likely already be a factor of duress, for someone to take this deal. And second, that's just an employment contract with your body as collateral.
( อกยฐ อส อกยฐ)
Beans were the currency in the Aztec empire
So in mexico you are worth a number of beans
Human beangs
*Real* human beans
Boo
*human **beans***
I think the thing I liked about Aztecs is the fact that sacrifices weren't killed immediately, they spent a month in a chamber to partake in drugs and sex being treated as a celebrity and then got sacrificed
Which ones chiefly sacrificed war prisoners?
What you mean
Like, of the south/central american tribes
All of them depending on era
Mayas, Incans, Aztecs
Idk which one
Okay
Probably what he said
iirc the pyramids wheren't actually built by slaves...
basically just contracted farmers
Aztecs were the only ones to use slaves and lottery winning citizens as sacrifices
Because I remember hearing that this was a thing that happened also, and I was wondering if there were any particular tribes which did, or didn't do it.
The _winning_ ones were the sacrifices?
Overly complex. I work for a guy who, for whatever reason. wants a fuckton of money. I'm not overly interested in money I like playing vidya and reading books. I am pretty good at figuring out how to make things work better. The guy I work for figures making things work better will help him make fucktons of money. So long as we can come to an arrangement where he pays me enough for vidya, mortgage, bills, and books and otherwise does not screw with me doing things I like we can come to a compromise.
"Congratulations! You wont the lottery! ...the AZTEC lottery!"
They saw it as a great honor
I think a better analogy is drawing the short straw than winning the lottery
You got to be a celebrity and do peyote
Drawing the Epstein straw.
And have orgies
Technically, that's kind of what happened to him, isn't it? Except it was much less planned out to go that way.
And theoretically help stave off the apocalypse by thirsty sun god, yes
Like, the orgies and the life of luxury ending in getting "suicided"
Yup
Even so
Drawback: ded
Personally I like to think they just liked to get blasted
Pretty big drawback
I think whoever killed him is also trying to forestall the wrath of the thirsty sun god.
Killed who
Epstein
Hah
I think they are spilling plenty of blood for the sun god in the Middle East
Maybe not _deliberately_
Nah, that's for the volcano god
On behalf of the orchestrating-what
Pompeii 2 electric boogaloo
How many volcanoes are there even over there
I omly know of like
What, two?
i'm assuming my joke went over peoples' heads
Apparently
It's a meme that the Jews worship a volcano god
Volcano
What
No, they worship Saturn
That's another meme, though probably more accurate
I can ramble on about the Saturn one
yee
Shit is _insane_
<a:nutbutton:572192653874036761>
I have not studied it to confirm it yet, though I have heard that Islam is actually a Lunar cult
<:ahegao:462286952335671296>
Would make sense
A _lot_ of religions to make their ascendent divine power one of the seven heavenly bodies and those who share the same one tend to have significant values overlap
We all know, the Flying Spaghetti monster is the true lord and savior
@Miniature Menace while an old art work...
he boiled for your sins
I can certainly see Islam's values being a warped version of lunar values
Chief reason Nippon is honorary af, they and huwhites both revere the sun. While Islam worships the moon, and Jews worship saturn. Though, technically there's also some saturn shit going on with islam, too, I think, with the kabba, or something.
begonicus thoticus
im waiting for the enderman to take the mystic brick
There tends to be some overlap in the head deity of any religion
not in the flying spaghetti monster
Perhaps the same could be said of *all* religions...
or Korean Jesus
It can be oddly easy to confuse Saturn and Jupiter, for example
Korean Jesus turns Soy into Kobe Beef
brb, becoming korean
One is almost always the sky god and the other a storm/lightning god
Varies which is which by religion
Nah man, you can't confuse saturn and jupiter
And yeah, Christianity is a solar faith (secondary Mercury element)
jupiter has rings
I actually remember seeing some thing where the swastika symbol was actually a representation of the primal force of the sea or something
I am speaking of as deities and values, not the material bodies
and other instances where it's supposedly associated with the sun
can't confuse the god of time for the god of the sky.
Aaasrgh, Kronus is not time
รON
Except foe when people confused and conflated him with Chronos/Aeon
Which did happen
Ik Kronus isn't time, Saturn however is a god of time in later developments of the roman faith amidst the golden age.
Is that why he's relative to all the other gods?
more like saturn is dad and they cut his dick off
I know
I am speaking of Saturn as a universal astrological symbol and type, not necessarily or exclusively as understood in the Roman paradigm
Well
THEY CUT HIS DICK OFF
***THEY CUT HIS FUCKING DICK OFF***
If your mythology doesn't involve cutting someone's dick off at some point I think it's done wrong
Even Vivec bite's molag bal's dick off and names it "milk taker" before slaying his 800 demon children.
wow, what kind of BME Pain Olympics mythology do you follow?
Understand it this way
Each of the original five planets and two luminaries (sun, moon, mars, mercury, jupiter, venus, Saturn, the planets visible to the naked eye) each had two natural domains or straightforward ways of manifesting
In astrological terms, each ruled two signs of the Zodiac except the sun and moon who had onlu one each
5x2+2=12
Saturn rules the two signs opposite the luminaries
Ie
Capricorn and Aquarius
Kronus in Greek/Roman myth is totally Capricorn
What are the signs of the luminaries?
Leo and Cancer
Well its like god has 72 names, and if you drew the world as a tree then each name has a level of power in said tree. There are 72 angels and on the underside of each tree branch there is a demon for a total of 72 demons. If you can play the game right and perform the proper rights to defeat the 72 demons then you earn the right to have a guardian angel.
And which one is the sun?
@KaiserDoom Which anime is this?
:V not even an anime, just general occultism with the book of Abramelin the Mage, aka - Abraham of Worms.
Never heard of it, but then, I'm not an occultist.
Sounds like an interesting anime, though.
Its not an anime though
It should be.
Sun-leo
Moon-cancer
Mars-ares, scorpio
Mercury-gemini, virgo
Jupiter-saggitarius, pisces
Venus-taurusz libra
Saturn-capricorn, aquarius
Capricorn is a masculine earth-element sign ruled by Saturn
Aquarius is a feminine air sign ruled by Saturn
Specifically, Aquarius is the diametric opposite point of the zodiac wheen from leo, the sun's home
Aquarian themes include:
Science (especially without proper moral restraint) , mental structures, systems of ideas and thoughts, lightning, humanity as a collective, humanitarianism, rebellion (including the rebel without a cause) , playing god, cold indifference, outliers and outcasts or mavericks, excessive desire to be unique or different
Prometheus is the poster boy for Aquarius
The Luciferian archetype is one for a negative expression
no wonder the "Age of Aquarius" believers produce such awful social cancer
Rebel who believed themselves in the moral right, indifference to the suffering he causes, cast down like lightning. The very word Satan has roots in the Egyptian Saturn god, Set
Oh, it gets worse
>they thought the AoA would be a golden age
Literal Satanism is a thoroughly Aquarian religion
>they didn't suspect they were the harbingers of great evil
A very malevolent expression of it
Lovecraft was right to fear things which slumbered in the sea.
Things like information control, augmented reality, narcissism, sociopathy, a 'digital age' are all entirely Aquarian themes
What are Leo themes?
Pride, leadership, charisma, strength, authority, creation and creativity, kingship, fatherhood (though Capricorn is _the_ father sign_ ) . Can be a bit aristocratic, mildly conservative. Governs art a little, will, sovereignty, pride and arrogance
Generally warm, associated with natural leadership
Can also be a man-eating beast, though. Weak to vanity and indulgence and riches
For Islam, the Moon is compassion, mercy, emotions, childhood, magic. Strong emphasis on community and the soft inside of the family unit amd and nurturing children
Lemme find thst video
Given some of what he talks about in here
I can see hints of lumar values being turned tyrannical
Lunar*
For some other examples, as I understand it, the Norse were a Saturn cult (Saturn in general is 'the father', either storm or sky, responsibility, consequences, judgment)
Greek were obviously a Jupiter cult
I think most versions of Hinduism are Jupiter cults
I thimk most cultures held either the Sun, Jupiter or Saturn as their head deity (of those who understood the stars much)
Sun is much more warm and approachable than Saturn
I can see pardoning being a solar value (compare the Solar new testament's focus on attonement as compared to the Saturnine old's harsh judgement)
Although I think our modern demons have more to do with the air than the sea
Cloud technology, age of information, technology dominated by electricity, augmented reality and vr, deep fake technology
Information literally whizzing through the air
And of the four classical elements, water corresponds to emotions while air is to thought
Ideas, information, logic, reason
Hell, the very term 'New World Order' is utterly Aquarian
Which, regardless of its moniker as 'the water bearer', is an air sign
fuckin what?
rocket launches are fucking beautiful
launched at the right time so the sunlight is hitting it when it reaches a higher altitude

You want Planet of the Apes, *this* is how we get Planet of the Apes.
look at all that
that fuckin luster, cunts
So unnecessarily pushy about shinyness.
little bit
though if you want a 100% guarantee to get my attention.
not diamonds, fuck that
the actual colors
Right now, I'm trying to figure out what the scrap came from.
Considering the same machining patterns occur repeatedly... must figure out what pre-scrap was. XD
someone in my lineage must have been a jewel thief or something cuz god damn, few things I wouldn't do for these
..or a bird or rodent.. XD
They have those big quartz stones in Glastonbury.
Real women love gems and stone's. Real women, have real men buy them a diamond.
diamonds are boring and gay
Amethysts and emeralds, bitch
Erm.. diamond obsession is a commercial fabrication of the 20th century. >.>
^
price is inflated by foreign cartels
legit blood money
Well, *domestic* cartels playing with foreign cartels.
Pretty sure Luxembourg is the kingpin
Maybe now, but there was a US based company that started it if I understand correctly.
(((diamonds)))
