It's no wonder it started in China

2020-01-25 10:56:22 UTC [NRx-Files #memes]  

Probably an acquired taste

2020-01-25 10:59:42 UTC [NRx-Files #health-and-wellness]  

All you naysayers
THE END IS NIGH

My mother has bronchitis so I'm concerned

2020-01-25 11:54:32 UTC [NRx-Files #memes]  

Coronavirus is an anagram for carnivorous btw

2020-01-25 12:32:45 UTC [NRx-Files #memes]  

anime is forbidden here

Yeah sushi is pretty good

Expensive though

Idk it's probably because sea food in general is pretty good

Chinese food is definitely worse compared to Japanese food imo

Moustache man made Austria occupy Germany
We were actually a victim of their autism

People had access to meat, just not on a regular basis in high quantities

If anything dried/smoked/salted meat and fish

2020-01-26 21:02:01 UTC [NRx-Files #video-recommendations]  

Doubt it

2020-01-26 21:02:26 UTC [NRx-Files #video-recommendations]  

It's not critique but slander

2020-01-26 21:02:42 UTC [NRx-Files #video-recommendations]  

Still bad and shouldn't be a thing

2020-01-26 21:03:25 UTC [NRx-Files #video-recommendations]  

Well it does make a difference

2020-01-26 21:04:45 UTC [NRx-Files #video-recommendations]  

Banning criticism for one would render the AfD illegal, which it won't be if slandering it is illegal

2020-01-26 21:05:02 UTC [NRx-Files #video-recommendations]  

It's the difference between banning speaking ill of someone and slander

2020-01-26 21:05:08 UTC [NRx-Files #video-recommendations]  

I know courts are a joke

2020-01-26 21:05:15 UTC [NRx-Files #video-recommendations]  

But it does make a difference

2020-01-26 21:06:42 UTC [NRx-Files #video-recommendations]  

I know it is but even with say hatespeech laws the personal intepretation part of this usually just leads to anarcho tyranny

2020-01-26 21:06:53 UTC [NRx-Files #video-recommendations]  

Some people get prosecuted, some don't

2020-01-26 21:07:03 UTC [NRx-Files #video-recommendations]  

Nobody has a certainty what is and isn't allowed

2020-01-26 21:07:26 UTC [NRx-Files #video-recommendations]  

These laws aren't really bans, but in effect a tool to acause self censorship

2020-01-28 18:36:34 UTC [NRx-Files #religion]  

Wouldn't you need to swap both

2020-01-28 18:37:09 UTC [NRx-Files #religion]  

Gnostics aren't paarticularly pleased about god/the demiurge

2020-01-30 09:17:48 UTC [NRx-Files #religion]  

Nonsense. If anything was novel about christianity it was monotheism, which is why it spread alongside other monotheistic cults like the cult of Sol invictus, mithraism etc.

2020-01-30 09:18:44 UTC [NRx-Files #religion]  

The main reason christianity spread this much is because the Roman empire and jewish diaspora existed in the first place

2020-01-30 09:19:43 UTC [NRx-Files #religion]  

Rome making it easy to travel from one corner of the empire to another for preaching, the diaspora being the initial audience for it

2020-01-30 09:20:47 UTC [NRx-Files #religion]  

Besides what variety of christianity was the one most willingly adopted by pagans? Arianism

2020-01-30 09:21:02 UTC [NRx-Files #religion]  

Gee I guess the trinity caused Arianism to catch on

2020-01-30 20:01:46 UTC [NRx-Files #general]  

Wait until the mormons find out they can make Utah a sanctuary state for polygamy

2020-01-30 20:06:23 UTC [NRx-Files #religion]  

Catholicism was later adopted for political reasons yes, but that's catholicism replacing arianism not trinitarianism convincing pagans to abandon their ways

2020-02-01 14:45:11 UTC [NRx-Files #memes]  

Probably and that's a good thing

Exponential growth of technology is folly. Per capita rate of inventions is already going down

Even the most marginal improvements now need dozens of minds to work on

And even then some older tech will fall into disrepair if ppl aren't staying intelligent enough to maintain them

Only hope is for people to realize that IQ and G are seriously important

Anyway regarding the uploading your mind to a computer thing I'm doubtful that it'd work properly and if it doesn't maintain someone's humanity it'd probably be outlawed, hell I'd outlaw it too

It's unlikely we can actually make reasonably sized computers that can emulate a human brain using normal components like circuits etc.

If anything you should keep an eye on something like neuralink by Elon Musk

If the neurons/the brain is the one thing demonstrated to be able to run a mind ppl will look at using similiar components when making replacement parts

I'm actually interested to what degree it'd be workable right now given we've seen even less advanced versions of neuralink allow people to contol a robotic arm remotely

2020-02-03 09:30:12 UTC [NRx-Files #general]  

Superb owl is dead. Chinese ate it

2020-02-03 17:30:45 UTC [NRx-Files #religion]  

There was a wealth of pagan thinker who wrote about their views. it's just that neoplatonism etc. got burried under christianities eventual ascendancy. It's not that there are no sources, just that it died off as a living tradition within christian countries, whereas hinduism for example kept it
People have put a lot of work into reconstructing paganism using whatever sources are available, however now with the knowledge of common roots in an original Indoeuropean faith.
Varg isn't even a relevant figure. It makes more sense to look at the work of Survive the Jive than that mentally ill person
Either way there are good reasons to reject the idea of a prime mover therefore god and whatnot, nevermind that Yahweh is polytheistic in origin. Not as a volcano demon but as a storm god with another god called Asherah as a wife. He also got conflated with a separate god EL by his jewish adherents. For a while Yahweh basically was worshipped in a monolatric fashion, traces of which can still be found in the bible (Worship no other gods besides me rather than there is no god but god in the ten commandments for example)

2020-02-03 17:32:39 UTC [NRx-Files #religion]  

They converted mostly out of political reasons

2020-02-03 17:32:47 UTC [NRx-Files #religion]  

Just looking at Hungary for example

2020-02-03 17:32:53 UTC [NRx-Files #religion]  

The king wanted to convert

2020-02-03 17:33:02 UTC [NRx-Files #religion]  

And this resulted in a huge revolt

2020-02-03 17:33:19 UTC [NRx-Files #religion]  

Arians dropped Arianism for diplomatic reason

2020-02-03 17:33:51 UTC [NRx-Files #religion]  

It's not that ppl were just convinced. It was a mixture of persuasion and other means

2020-02-03 17:34:05 UTC [NRx-Files #religion]  

Religious Realpolitik so to speak

2020-02-03 17:36:44 UTC [NRx-Files #religion]  

Sure. There's no reason for say Constantine to convert to christianity in particular is an example

2020-02-03 17:37:17 UTC [NRx-Files #religion]  

He had other options and christians arguably weren't in a majority at that point

2020-02-03 17:39:34 UTC [NRx-Files #religion]  

Idk about that. Sure religions share themes about morality but the pagan view of virtue and the divine is different to the one in monotheism
Gods are seen as flawed and subordinate to things like fate and in Hinduism basically everything is subordinate to Dharma

2020-02-03 17:39:50 UTC [NRx-Files #religion]  

There certainly were monotheistic and monolatric analogues though

2020-02-03 17:41:02 UTC [NRx-Files #religion]  

The cult of Sol Invictus, Mithraism and the way Jupiter/Zeus was elevated above other gods. Zeus was rarely a patron deity of cities but rather somethign to swear an oth on

2020-02-03 17:41:22 UTC [NRx-Files #religion]  

There's an older example in Egypt with a monotheistic sun cult

2020-02-03 17:43:40 UTC [NRx-Files #religion]  

Didn't know that, very interesting

2020-02-03 17:45:31 UTC [NRx-Files #religion]  

Afaik it might've inspired the jews in Egypt

2020-02-03 17:47:05 UTC [NRx-Files #religion]  

Regardless there's also an interesting thing about Zeus and the like because tracing back the name to the original Indo-European head deity you get Dyeus Phter which just means sky father or god father

2020-02-03 17:49:25 UTC [NRx-Files #general]  

I remember a sotry my mother told me about a Turk sitting under a roof drinking a lot of alcohol
Apparently he said that Allah can't see him under the roof

2020-02-03 18:12:56 UTC [NRx-Files #religion]  

I don't view it as a natural result, though I'll agree there's a tendency or at least was within religions to sometimes develop into monotheism

2020-02-03 18:13:29 UTC [NRx-Files #religion]  

I don't like inevitabilisms like the idea that dialectics will inevitably usher in communism or whatever

2020-02-03 18:14:22 UTC [NRx-Files #religion]  

I'm certainly biased because I'm not a christian though and don't share the same view of god

2020-02-03 18:14:48 UTC [NRx-Files #video-recommendations]  

Yes the AfD does support nuclear

2020-02-03 18:14:53 UTC [NRx-Files #video-recommendations]  

And that's a good thing

2020-02-03 18:15:38 UTC [NRx-Files #video-recommendations]  

Everytime we scrap one of our nuclear plants we just end up importing more electricity from France which heavily relies on guess what? Nuclear power

2020-02-03 18:22:53 UTC [NRx-Files #general]  

Islam is strong because it is already well established and at least doctrinally is willing to go to any legth
It is weaker to the degree ppl don't actually follow it strictly

2020-02-03 18:23:32 UTC [NRx-Files #general]  

Also of course they have a disadvantage being backwards countries nobody would pay attention to if oil and gas didn't exist

2020-02-03 18:24:18 UTC [NRx-Files #general]  

And historically most ppl were illiterate so it wasn't that hard for them to become decadent

2020-02-03 18:50:25 UTC [NRx-Files #religion]  

First of all disagreeing about the nature of god and the emergence of the universe with christians is a good reason to look at alternate systems of belief. People who want to be amoral become wiccans or stay atheists etc.
Then there's the idea of Dharma which had a predecessor in the old IE religion which I very much like and identify with my views of good as an intangible ideal to strive for (which I had since my agnostic phase)
It's not so much about larping in Marvel costumes or necessarily worshipping any god in particular but first an foremost being in line with that intangible good to the best of my ability
Respecting gods, flawed as they are, I think is a good thing but not necessary for it

2020-02-03 18:50:54 UTC [NRx-Files #religion]  

Anyway I don't like the term pagan

2020-02-03 18:51:21 UTC [NRx-Files #religion]  

Wiccans are not in the same category as someone who is trying to be a good person

2020-02-03 18:51:46 UTC [NRx-Files #religion]  

I have to say that paganism on the internet is in a bad state because of bad apples like Varg

2020-02-03 18:52:33 UTC [NRx-Files #religion]  

People pick it up superficially and then don't bother to do the work to actually behave properly

2020-02-03 18:53:41 UTC [NRx-Files #religion]  

Regarding the racial aspect, yes it factors into it and it should if you're not someone who thinks in terms of universal salvation and whatnot

2020-02-03 19:00:41 UTC [NRx-Files #religion]  

Modern atheists and progressives represent actually what preceded Indo_European paganism

2020-02-03 19:01:00 UTC [NRx-Files #religion]  

The old matriarchal fertility cults of early European farmers

2020-02-03 19:02:50 UTC [NRx-Files #religion]  

If we're turning back to that it's only a question of time old paganism will supplant it too which is highly hierarchical, masculine and idealistic as far as we can tell or another potent meme will do the job

2020-02-03 19:02:54 UTC [NRx-Files #religion]  

Maybe islam idk

2020-02-03 19:03:16 UTC [NRx-Files #religion]  

I could see muslims taking over countries and shitlibs converting en masse to avoid paying Jizya

2020-02-03 19:05:12 UTC [NRx-Files #religion]  

I don't actually think so. As German I've seen secularized muslims

2020-02-03 19:05:26 UTC [NRx-Files #religion]  

Secularized as in tainted by liberalism

2020-02-03 19:05:57 UTC [NRx-Files #religion]  

First gen guestworkers were pretty ok, behaved well etc.
2nd gen and onwards it only goes downhill

2020-02-03 19:06:12 UTC [NRx-Files #religion]  

They never really drop islam, jsut violate its principles

2020-02-03 19:06:32 UTC [NRx-Files #religion]  

Which also leads some of them to want to repent in a typically islamic way

2020-02-03 19:06:49 UTC [NRx-Files #religion]  

Either they become salafists and do nothing or they cause issues

2020-02-03 19:07:23 UTC [NRx-Files #religion]  

In my city there's actually quite a number of salafists because Hamburg didn't want them to organize there

2020-02-03 19:07:37 UTC [NRx-Files #religion]  

You see them walking around from time to time

2020-02-03 19:07:46 UTC [NRx-Files #religion]  

In white robes with long beards

2020-02-03 19:08:23 UTC [NRx-Files #religion]  

I've also been to an Ahmadiyya mosque back in my school days

2020-02-03 19:08:26 UTC [NRx-Files #religion]  

It's not islam

2020-02-03 19:09:22 UTC [NRx-Files #religion]  

Yeah it's a really minor sect of muslims which jsut ignore the qur'an when they don't like it

2020-02-03 19:09:39 UTC [NRx-Files #religion]  

They had banners saying "Muhammad liberator of women"
