    Ayaan Hirsi ali is a Somalian-born Dutch intellectual, feminist activist, writer, and politician.

    Just finished reading this book, this woman should be given some sort of award for having the balls to stand up to Islam. Just the type of people we need in Europe

    10/10 Very entertaining and informative highly recommended!

    This might be up your alley, OP. It's on the media bias that essentially supports Palestinian terrorism and defames Israel, pretty fucking astonishing on the whole. Also a well-written easy read.

    Some fun facts in Islam!

    - a women's word in court is = to half of a mans
    the reasoning for this is women are apprehend more emotionally vulnerable.

    -if a women is accused of adultery a man needs no witnesses and she will be buried neck knee and stoned to death.

    -homosexuals are flogged and killed

    -if you leave Islam you will be killed

    - you can beat your wife as long as you don't hit her in the face

    What's funny is the video doesn't say anything racist and also makes the point that the existence of race does not equal racism. Which seems like an odd point for a racist to make, they would immediately want to point out what the existence of race entails in their ideology.
    I think a bunch of racists completely misinterpreted the video and want to use it illogically to support their own views, which is pretty believable.

    I posted the video. I just wanted to point out that race does exist, and the fact that people make such a big deal about it is why it's a big deal in the first place. So what if Asians tend to be smarter than Africans? They all have their place in society.

    Newton thought there were angels everywhere. Most of his writing was about the Original True Religion which centered around the worship of 12 gods (7 planets, 4 elements, and the quintessence). Noah and his sons were the founder of that religion and spread it throughout the world. Ancient Egypt fucked it up by becoming idolatrous.

    Race is the idea that there is one animal and multiple offspring of that animals genetic structure. So basically take a bear. In one part of the country there is a brown bear. He lives in the Forrest and he eats fish from the water. Then there is the black bear he lives in another forrest and he eats berries and nuts.

    Seeing a black person and treating them for sickle cell anemia without checking to see if they have a genetic predisposition for it would be stupid. Based on race alone, they would be more likely to have it. That's why it's a stupid, non-scientific metric. It doesn't mean anything. "Oh, your skin is black? Well you must have all these illnesses and problems." It doesn't work that way. Genes tell the story, and there is no "black gene" or "Indian gene" or anything of that sort.

    Nobody doubts that people are different, or that there are sweeping constellations of difference within the human genome. The point everybody is trying to make is that without cultural and societal factors race CANNOT be a useful concept because it doesn't guarantee anything. Our idea of 'races' doesn't correspond to actual groups of biological distinction. If there is vastly more genetic difference within the so-called 'races' than outside of them, and if genetic traits are shared extensively across the borders of 'races', what does the concept of 'race', biologically, even mean? If all you're saying is "there are broad genetic trends observable" then maybe you should change your terminology because of how loaded 'race' is; the concept I'm talking about is very different to how people use the word 'race'.

    If you make an analysis of human difference, you find most of it is cultural. Most of what's biological actually occurs in spots across the whole species without regard for 'racial' borders. Most of what vaguely seems to correspond to those borders is more geographical than anything else, and shifts within them. Most of what's left after all that isn't much.

    When you use 'race' as a biological concept you are working ass-backwards. Both biology AND humanities tell us that humans have a tendency to think in categories. Historically, then, they have always imagined difference to be distributed categorically. The concept of race is thousands of years old (though our modern version might be a little different) whereas the science of genetics is not much more than a hundred. If you want to apply an ancient, cultural, perceptual notion to modern science, you can try, but it simply doesn't fit well enough to be useful. You are seeing new sights through very old and dusty lenses, and trying to claim every vague agreement as a confirmation that your approach is suitable. All the evidence indicates that it's not, and indicts your 'confirmations' as excuses.

    to glance at the swans on the shining serpentine
    whose white necks, graceful and demure, doth sway
    matching the line of her own, my grateful queen.

    If you think marching, half-drunkenly, into a palace and meeting no opposition is violent, then fair enough. If your SRs had their way (pre- or post-Provisional government), they'd have continued fighting a war against Germany despite the near total absence of a Russian battlefront.

    You think Russia would have won? The Bolsheviks went to war with the sons of those who: 1. had no interest in the Provisional government, 2. wanted the Tsarist old guard restored, 3. wanted a nationalist war with Germany to persist on a non-existent front, which would have led to the crushing of Petrograd and Moscow (or, a lot more than was ultimately seized by Germany). 4. had the sole interest of wiping out anyone remotely associated with the Left, including the Jews as a people. The Holocaust would started much earlier, in Russia and not Germany.

    Russia was in for a lot of bloodshed in any case, but primarily on account of the above assholes.

    The war ended in under a year even without Russia, silly. Over the course of WWI ~three million Russians died. In the civil war, lower estimates are that six million people died.

    The Bolsheviks went to war with anyone siding with or enabling the White Armies, whose sponsors also happened to be western allies. It doesn't matter if the war had ended six months earlier; the Provisional government was already on its way out, and Western Russia would have been demolished, either by the Germans or the resurgent Tsarist forces. The strongest player in all this were the Bolsheviks, whose main constituency had the most to lose (Petrograd and Moscow). The peasants secondarily, who had the prospect of land ownership under the Bolsheviks, something which wasn't forthcoming under the Provisional government.

    >A pretty convenient term for "anyone who isn't with us", isn't it?

    Considering what was at stake, it was pretty apt. If you're referring to Kronstadt, it wasn't the Red Army who were doing the useless killing in that stupid encounter, especially when you consider the wider conflict. Had the garrison fallen to White or western forces, they would have had a clear sight over Petrograd from which to shell the city, and basically hold it to ransom. Thus the Red Army had to cross a semi-frozen sea while being fired on, because a bunch of so-called anarchists and peasant sons had unresolved grievances back home on the farm.

    >Holodomor

    You mean the Ukranian famine in the 1930s, under Stalin's industrial planning (which btw, was a genuine famine)? And? Had the White forces succeeded, Russia would have been rebooted to feudalism, and Russia would have been in no better, unstable condition, or potentially worse in the longer run.

    >I didn't know that the kolkhoz was closer to land ownership than the village ownership they'd had before.

    What "village ownership"? Oh, you mean landholders. Who exploited the peasants who lived on and worked the land. Yeah, those guys.

    But no, I'm talking about peasant land distribution. Which unsurprisingly was highly popular among peasants. The Whites didn't have anything which approximated it. What political programme the Whites did have, was a promise to return to the old days, which is what ultimately killed them.

    Nah I mean that whole fuck our treaty thing the Bolsheviks did in 1920, RIGHT after the Black Army kicked the shit out of the Whites. How nice that they let them help out for a little while!

    >which btw, was a genuine famine

    YOU GUYS DONT HAVE ENOUGH GRAIN
    SURELY TAKING WHAT YOU DO HAVE WILL SOLVE THE PROBLEM

    lol

    >Had the White forces succeeded, Russia would have been rebooted to feudalism

    Somehow, under feudalism, they managed to have maybe two notable famines in over 400 years. Under the Bolsheviks there were two enormous ones within about a decade of each other.

    >Russia would have been in no better, unstable condition, or potentially worse in the longer run.

    Except for all those dead people, you mean.

    >What "village ownership"? Oh, you mean landholders

    No, I mean the land given to villages for collective farming after the Emancipation of the serfs. It was quite unpopular because the serfs thought they were to receive their own lands, rather than just be allowed to use public lands. Somehow the Bolsheviks missed out on that part of history.

    "Emancipation" of the serfs meant hired labour under the families who still owned the land. Which was regarded as worse than the previous arrangement of having land to work, even if you're owned by someone else. The latter system involved buying and hiring shit (food, tools) from one's employer, which led to neither security nor wages.

    The rest of your shit is unrelated ranting. "Except for all those dead people"? Well, your historical choice is either Stalin and rapid industrialisation (which largely deStalinised when Stalin died), or the Holocaust and further civil war. Because that's about all that the Cossacks promised.

    Public lands were created. Many serfs worked on village-owned land.

    >the previous arrangement of having land to work

    They didn't have land to work. They worked their owners' land.

    >your historical choice is either Stalin and rapid industrialisation (which largely deStalinised when Stalin died), or the Holocaust and further civil war

    Why "further"? The one the Bolsheviks started lasted four years and killed millions. That's some nice excluded middle there, too. I might as well say that the historical choice was between a weak democracy and massive famines, civil war, worse political repression than any Tsarist regime had ever instituted, millions of deaths for political reasons and a system of labour camps like nothing before or after. But that would be a mistake.

    Also seriously, cut the Holocaust crap. Prejudice existed all over Europe at the time, there's no reason to suspect that the Tsarists would have done anything even _approaching_ that.

    And speaking of genocide

    >the Cossacks promised.

    Good thing the Bolsheviks instituted decossackization, right?
