I find interesting that people do not realize that the CM should be considered a historical curiosity. What the CM proposes are, at best, juvenile ideas. I don't get why so many people waste so much time with it. It looks like a cult. The truth is obvious for those outside the cult, but for those brain washed by the cult, this silly pamphlet reads as the path to Nirvana. Weird, very weird.
Augustine was not Catholic nor a Saint He was a pagan philosopher trying to lead souls astray He was a rhetorician which is being skilled in lying, in the art of deception He admitted in his own words that he did not live a life of Light but rather chose the darkness of the world instead If you are stuck reading him in college, make sure to realize that he was not a Catholic He was nothing other than a pagan Nihilist and a Humanist an enemy of GOD and TRUTH
Personally I think there is alot of anecdotal evidence that Aristotle's teachings did heavily impact Alexander, and the man he would become. For e.g, when Alexander began his conquests throughout Asia minor, he let customs remain relatively unchanged, and even appointed local Persian satraps over his own Macedonian men, much to the disgruntlement of his kinsman. He knew that to blend his new conquered lands with his own kingdom, he would need to combine the cultures. This required a great amount of emotional intelligence, and I would say that a lot of that can be attributed to Aristotle's teachings. As well, Alexander is remarked to have said "I owe my father for living, and my teacher, for living well."
Women required...? Well, for equality the full participation in the glass cellar jobs, acknowledgement that women always had vast sway over men, and to be told that misandry and bigotry is wrong. Even today, it is the glass cellar jobs which keep the infrastructure up and running and feminists spouting their hate-ridden bile in comfort. Take those men away, and survival takes precedence immediately as the lights go out, food runs out, there are no firemen, no male builders and we enter chaos. If we keep attacking and demoralising men and boys, this may one day come to pass.
Funny how Marxists never built their dream companies to prove their theory to be better for workers. It amazes me how this channel fawns over Marx and afraid to cover his most negative attributes and actions. Easy way to detect narrow minded creators that way.
lol, you ignore his desire to burn down all social structures or his Mephistopheles obsession . You are not as intellectually honest as you pretend to be. Your bias taints your work. Thanks for exposing yourself!
If this woman could do it, why couldn't all the other women do it too? There were no insurmountable obstacles put in her way by the Patriarchy. Why did other women falter at these obstacles and claim oppression, rather than overcoming them as she did?
Her thesis... Men have rights A, B & C. Women should have them too, because women want them and men have to provide the rights for the women. No, if women want rights, women have to p ay the price of getting the rights for themselves. Take Afghanistan. The Taliban fought for political power and are not sharing it with women Did the women of Afghanistan fight, AK47 in hand, risking their their lives, for their rights? No, is it any surprise they don't have any rights?
I often hear the thought that we don’t see evidence of Aristotle’s teaching in Alexander. That seems like a superficial view of what teaching is. Isn’t the end goal preparing the student’s mind in such a way that he can flourish as an adult? Seems to me Alexander did that.
One of the most, if not THE most, profoundly insightful books I have ever read. It should be required reading for every American. Thank you, Professor.
Tocqueville, Montesquieu and Lafayette are interesting figures. All Enlightenment guys and all French but didn't conform to the FRENCH ENLIGHTENMENT but rather more so with the Anglo-American Enlightenment (English and American).

Nice, yeah. Augustine as an influence on Hobbes seems supported through multiple lenses. Also a great reminder why Plato's perspectives on rhetoric still matter--rhetoric can be wielded for any purpose, like technology. Precisely why ethics is needed in rhetoric.
@james Muldoon hi sir excuse me I have some questions about the play. Is there any possibility for us to discuss in private? Thanks for the summary. I look forward from hearing from you.
Although Mill did not trust under developed nations to rule themselves democratically, I understand that he was one of the few who were not racist and/or agreed with slavery of some, or were purposefully silent on the subject....Like Kant in his early life, Nietze Aristotle, the supposed jesus, and other so-called.

The administered socialist state, ran by the dictatorship of the proletariat, is effectively what every modern 20th century communist country attempted to do. The reality is both Vladimir Lennon and Stalin admitted they never reached communism. There’s a couple reasons for that, one communism is a global vision and to they never reached the point where humanity was unable to live without communism. That second one’s a real sticky point. Effectively communism advocates beating people down until they can’t live without communism. Between China the USSR they killed over 100 million people trying to achieve this. What’s worse is nowhere in Mark’s writing does he describe how you wrestle the power away from the state after you’ve even achieved division that no man is able to live without communism. The notion that it’s going to “wither away” is magical thinking. Communist believes it’s just going to happen. Just it’s just a natural order of things. They are insane to believe this.
