I’ve answered yours

Now answer mine that you’re avoiding

By god, some of us even serverd in the military for reasons about protecting our country, truth liberty and all that jazz

How would the Doctrine of Fascism help restore these values to society?

Which part don't you understand that if wealth is a false friend against conventional wisdom, and that in the modern capitalist world wealth is placed above all else makes you think that people back then did NOT frown material wealth for the sake of it?

Because the conventional wisdom was that wealth is good

Which means it was not frowned upon

Now answer my question

Also the historical record shows that

No, go on. I want to hear you say it

I just did numb nuts

If conventional wisdom is more valuable in the face of material wealth what makes you think that people won't frown material wealth and by extension, modernity today?

What?

Go on XD

No dumbass, the conventional wisdom WAS that wealth is good

You're getting there

Get it?

That’s the entire conceit of the poem

The **specific** use of the word wealth in the context that the poem **needs to clarify** that wisdom is the **true wealth** and not material wealth

would they really frown on the world today? with all of our medicine and comforts

Right, the poem needs to clarify it, because EVERYONE ASSUMES THE OPPOSITE IS TRUE

Thus proving that in Norse pagan culture WEALTH WAS NOT CONSIDERED UNCLEAN

You stupid fuck

I'm curious as to where this line of reasoning goes. If modernity is bad, what do we replace it with

What do you think the point of the poem is

Honestly

Yes, it is because THEY HAVE PUT THIS WISDOM INTO THEIR POEMS TO ACT AS MORAL COMPASS

Dumbass

LOL

ok, now we’re getting somewhere

Why did they feel the need to do that?

Because else they were shun by society.

That poem is like the self help woo section in the book store today

And with Christianity, killed maybe

when a book says be mindful, they are saying you aren't mindful enough now

Else who was shunned by society?

likewise that poem is trying to tell people 'love your relatives, because you arent doing it enough now'

This poem does not coincide with Christianity in low Germany

You dont have to tell peolpe to do things they are already doing

if ayn rand wrote a norse poem, maybe they were being too pastoral and family-loving

but she came centuries later
