We just watched the best Yarvin interview....kudos to the interviewer 🥂. Fantastic work...let curtis rant when necessary and knew when to interdict. 👏 👏 👏
@@ShimobeSama absofrigginlutely. About time someone asked him about the propensity for the new tech Caesar to be an atheist and the dangers that come with that.
@@Dekgaza Not really my top concern personally, but I understand the philosophical significance to people who are concerned about that. Musk said he believes in the God of Espinoza, but even if he deep down just believes the Simulation Hypothesis and nothing else, then that would probably cause him to functionally act in similar ways that a person who believes in God would act based on their beliefs, and give more credence to the words and advice of people who do believe in God. More specifically I was wondering about plans for the people to get what they want, and the interviewer got old Mencius Moldy here to give pretty interesting hypothetical paths to victory for both the US and UK examples (France, Germany, and Japan would be the other very important ones in a global context), which is what I was referring to in specific.
19:20 "40% of Americans don’t feel safe walking the street outside their own homes. If you have that statistic and you believe you have the best system of government of all time, I don’t even know what to tell you, you’re not living in reality." That just about says it all.
Yarvin seems to be trying more these days to speak to the point (both answering the actual question and using focused historical references), but even more critical is the interviewer. We finally got someone who actually did their homework on Yarvin and the concepts at play. Very impressive.
Im only part way through and I agree. He also did a great one with Based Camp with Simone and Malcolm Colins that was good too. It was kind of like being sprayed with a fire house. I personally would have rather had a 3 hour deep dive into each item he brought up. Another one, and the real reason I am here is due do a podcast *Leviathan Is Inevitable Guest: Whatifalthist 11/11/24* with Auron MacIntyre. This one blew my mind.

Harrison, Congratulations! Everything from the quality of discussion, the guest, the video and audio production, the set, the wardrobe, the lighting... it's superb!
Wow, that is an astonishing piece of analysis and interview. This is exceptional. One thing. The interviewer is evidently hugely knowledgeable. He should take this for granted and resist the temptation to demonstrate his clearly profound knowledge. Good job young man. I envy your incisiveness at such a young age.
I've thought about the "drowned in ceremony" thing for American presidents. When daydreaming about my hypotheticale election as president, I've always thought that the first thing I'd do would be to assign all my public duties to the vice president and then hole up in the White House for the next 4 years to focus on actually doing things.
I mean this is in effect what the first Republican ever, Lincoln, did during the war. Except Lincoln often went down to the War Department, and shockingly sometimes went out to see the actual war being fought. Still the deadliest American war today. It is impressive psychologically how his wife was so disconnected from everything, as she had decided to live in a false reality due to having lost one of their children at a young age. The man was very impressive psychologically to deal with the war, the war inside himself and the war inside his wives mind, while dealing with the incompetent bureaucracy (not shocking we are dealing with the same incompetence today....) all at the same time - while also seeing the first ever industrial scale war ever. What I mean by all of this, is yes, oftentimes you have to discard the ceremony in order to get down to brass tacks to get things done. Not fun, but true.
I was introduced to Yarvin's work by George Hotz in 2020 and it's been really interesting to follow his trajectory over the past few years. I remember seeing Yarvin involved with JD Vance years ago and I thought it was an odd choice but now he's the VP. Maybe some of the kayfabe will die out and things will start actually getting interesting.
This is my first time watching anything from this channel, i like listening to Curtis, i must say, i am very impressed by Harrison Pitt , very well versed clearly well read and arguably has a better pace control of speech than Curtis...at half his age. I will be checking this channel out.
Curtis needs to have a look at the Roman empire, Persian empire, Israelite empire as far as civilisations, but moreso, the expansiveness and flexibility of the Islamic caliphates - and their distributed power centres over time when a caliphate isn't operable. I mean even the middle eastern / levant had elite families that would tussle over power / control. The hashinite and suad families fought over what is Saudi Arabia until British empire finalised the agreement for the families to establish Jordan / Gulf states.
Your point, please? A whole lot of words with no point. Arguably what can be derived from your jumble PROVES Curtis' theories quite handsomely. Had one man consolidated power over these frivolous pseudo-aristocracies and crushed them, no British intervention required. What you've described here is democracy at work, mobs motivated by whichever aristocrat they pay respect to, fighting pointlessly, killing their own kind. The complete inverse of a hierarchical order.
Great conversation. A point of pedantry, Emperor John (Yohannes) died in battle in 1889. Would love to hear if any kings fought in battle more recently than that.
Woke culture is to a great extent, “performative’’ and while this has led to its rapid ascendency this same “performative’’ attribute delineated Woke culture’s deficiency/absence of concrete answers, and or reasoning. Beyond that Woke culture must have DEI, Diversity, everywhere, tomorrow because not having DEI, Diversity, everywhere, tomorrow is racist. Woke - When you see racism and injustice in an omnipresent cloud, everywhere, in every direction. In every action, word, and thought. When you see racism and injustice in every action, word, and thought with the notable exclusion of within your own sanctimonious hypocritical behaviour.
As an American my concerns are focused on oligarchs who seem to have taken over everything including most of our government. Trump seems to be the only one standing between democracy in America and the demise of our country.
I like Yarvin, but I swear, he used the word 'basically' at least 50 times in this video. Followed very closely by, and in a dead heat with each other, 'like' and 'you know'.
I personally enjoyed hearing the fake Austrian painter actual FDR speech in Bill & Ted California surfer English. I think it would be hilarious/awesome to see him actually pounding on some podiums and getting some huge crowds worked up in that exact style. 🤣
@ Thanks. Are there go-to book recommendations? I like the guy and find him amusing but would be good if he finished a sentence without getting distracted
Mr Youknow Yarvin has much to say and all of it alarmingly interesting and insightful. Mr Pitt appaesr to enjoys the American friendliness of it and we sit back and listen to the dialogue which is mostly monologue but that is perhaps what it should be don't you know?
The cryptojew never mentions by which ideal the monarchy would be led. Of course he won’t mention the fact that the most successful monarchies in history were Catholic
@@the_Kurgan Khan, Caeser and Alexander were not kings tbough, rather Emperors. What could be argued was that they were legitimised by a belief in a 'divine right'
The Nxxxs living in Antarctica. He's being realistic, but the interview gets a long, detailed whitepill way forward from him both in the case of the US and the UK towards the end.
You should check out his interview with Kisin (another hat who has made a video saying why communism was worse than Austrian painter, due to Orwellian thought control by communists, private property under painter, etc.). There's a part in there where Yarvin says basically every conspiracy theory about WW2 except H-caust denial is basically true or has a huge element of truth to it. You might enjoy it.
@@ShimobeSama communists and not-sees are two sides of a progressive coin; both envision a utopian end or eschaton, a dialectical operating system that leads, eventually, toward the same goal. Communism is designed to debase national, ethnic and individual identity, nat soc/fascism is designed to counter the commies with a mythology of birth right and national or ethnic identity that has been attacked leading to the failure of the fascists to be later pushed along toward the synthesis of communism and fascism with an emasculated citizenry - German, Japan, Italy and Spain all evidence this function.
i get it lol. Dont let that detract you. It could be argued he is a form of hedging their bets or even planting someone in this camp early to potentially serve as controlled opposition, but that doesn't mean his points presented in the video aren't valid. Always stay suspicious but also follow your intuitions and pattern recognition.
…divine kingship is however conferred by anointment and requires a priest-prophet to make the anointment - the (?) ultimate consideration then is whether or not such a possibility yet exists or else how ‘the lively oracles’ might creatively represent such again to general safety and to burn through the scarring barbs of Kantian rationalistics manifesting in material cultures such as Marx’s, Freud’s and Darwin’s and their combination with the hapless delusion of La Conte’s Positivism! - and from which Blair’s political leukaemia - and this itself heir to the further difficulty of Fabian disdain/‘patronage’ of ‘lower’ classes and its core vicious and vitiating relativism regarding Power….perhaps🤯😂…..
@@georgerafa5041 Trace amounts of Middle Eastern ancestry that have magical demonic powers to connect one to some kind of interdimensional hivemind that's impossible to break free from and no one even wants to break free from, according to people on the internet.
There's another recent video where he talks about Ozempic, and makes some half-jokes about saving money with ghetto off-brand DIY equivalents or whatever. It's hard to tell how much of it is serious and how much is a joke. 🤣
@@candidlens Except he's not........Curtis' idea is more like a joint stock company than an absolute monarchy. Like a whole bunch of them like the HRE. You should check out UR and Patchwork.
@Kwisatz-Chaderach Thanks, will do. In the, at least, 20 interviews I've heard in recent years he advocates government as corporation with one autocratic sovereign at the top, citing unparalleled efficiency and good results by analogy.
... I'm not bright enough to understand lots of what Mr Yarvin says. He does however seem to be a little too sure of, well everything, and that always seems very dangerous. Very.
> In England, the Anglo-Saxon language had long supplanted the old Brittonic languages, and the English words "Wales" and "Welsh", meaning "foreigners", came to be used to describe the free lands to the west. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cultural_relationship_between_the_Welsh_and_the_English
England has always been a land of foreigners, eh, care to back that up? Genetic analysis indicates the British are mostly related to the original neolithic farmers. I know that the case in Ireland. We've been here so long we have developed our own skin colour, translucent. The Celts and vikings and Saxons didn't leave that large a genetic imprint.
I was taking them really seriously and then they just started laughing like little kids about chavs and the labor party being best described as "its complicated relationship", i mean come on, you cant go from serious greek/roman political analysis to that in a couple seconds
Curtis please. STOP TO SAY YOU KNOW YOU KNOW YOU KNOW HUNDRESS OF TIMES. This destroys your speech and makes you look like unable to articulate a proper idea. It makes me almost impossible to follow you, even when I’m quite interested in your ideas.
Yeah it'll be a while before he's pounding on any podiums, but at least he has a better speed and cadence than Musk, who seems like he still isn't really that used to public speaking after all these years of doing it, and has a hard time getting into a flow state where he doesn't have to perform a million computations just to figure out how he wants to word something fairly basic.
I just kind of noticed that Yarvin and Tucker actually have a lot of mannerisms and peculiarities about their speech patterns in common. Try watching either of them and looking for them. It's kind of uncanny. Interesting contrast though is that Tucker is actually a really good public speaker that can get a huge crowd of plebes really riled up. Maybe Yarvin can learn how to work a crowd from him since their mannerisms are almost the same anyway so we can get him pounding on some podiums.
Abrahamic religion and mentality castrated the native culture of Europe. It's inherently fear based, passive aggressively despotic, apocalyptic and utopian. Woke is just the Jungian shadow. A revival of the native Indo European religion, mindset and culture of Europe is vital to any other solutions.
@S.J.L Yes, it's a morality rooted in the slave mentality of ancient Egypt according to Nietzsche. He speaks of the need for the return of the blonde beast, you may know.
What native Indo-European religion? What mindset? Europe was a disparate wilderness of warring tribes and states from the dawn of time until the Roman subjugation. And even Rome began crumbling after scarcely a century or two. The "Abrahamic religion" that rose from the ashes has proven itself to be one of the most resilient, unifying, and vivacious forces in the last 2000 years of human history. It's only since Europe began to abandon that religion in earnest starting in the middle of the 20th century that we began to find ourselves in the current predicament.
@vel0xraperio There's some truth to what you say, but it's also true that a fair portion of the Christian message was never fully in accord with the true essential nature of Europeans, as Andrew Klavan has pointed out. Prior to the top-down forced conversion of Europe, Europeans worshipped gods similar to those of the Ancient Greeks, their natural ethno-religions. The Mediterranean world and Middle East, though civilized on a grander scale and more urban thanks to ideal geographic conditions, were likewise made up of countless warring tribes prior to Roman subjugation. An early example of Judaic idea warfare can be seen in the destabilizing effect that the spread of Christianity had on the Roman Empire and the ensuing dark ages.. A theme often recurring.
@vel0xraperio Also, it was the return to classical ideals during the Renaissance that really made Europe, according to many. The Romans copied the Greeks. Northern Europeans played their role in the bronze aged world and are mentioned as being larger warriors. Fair-haired Menelaus was certainly European.
Christianity is anything but utopian, it's rather the opposite; let's not conflate this world with the after life, whether you believe in one or not; also, considering the wild unprecedented success of Europe over the last 15 hundred years, you whole statement sounds idiotic
You got Uncle Yarv to admit that you knew a historical period better than he did. Well done sir!
As a Welshman, I would like to thank Mr. Yarvin for his concerns about my countrymen during the recent months.
@TrivialCoincidence now it turns out stabber was AQ sleeper, surprise surprise.
Amen.

That's actually the BEST interview of Yarvin I've ever seen
No joke. I’ve never seen him better.
The Interviewer can keep up.

I don't think that was necessarily a JT reference; a lot of people pronounce it like that. 🤣
Curtis just vibing at this point
Grey mirroring meets Gray mirror? Excellent interview and discussion - thank-you both.
This is my first time watching anything from this channel, i like listening to Curtis, i must say, i am very impressed by Harrison Pitt , very well versed clearly well read and arguably has a better pace control of speech than Curtis...at half his age.
I will be checking this channel out.
It sounds like "Shwarma" is the Moldbug epithet for Ramaswamy.
Yup! 😆 I want to see them debate so badly.
Very good interview. Appreciate it!
"foreign tribal interest groups" :D
Proverbs 29:2 (NIV) When the righteous thrive, the people rejoice; when the wicked rule, the people groan.
Domesticated citizens may be easy to rule, but it seems like domesticated leaders are comparably easy to overthrow
Curtis needs to have a look at the Roman empire, Persian empire, Israelite empire as far as civilisations, but moreso, the expansiveness and flexibility of the Islamic caliphates - and their distributed power centres over time when a caliphate isn't operable. I mean even the middle eastern / levant had elite families that would tussle over power / control. The hashinite and suad families fought over what is Saudi Arabia until British empire finalised the agreement for the families to establish Jordan / Gulf states.
Your point, please? A whole lot of words with no point. Arguably what can be derived from your jumble PROVES Curtis' theories quite handsomely. Had one man consolidated power over these frivolous pseudo-aristocracies and crushed them, no British intervention required. What you've described here is democracy at work, mobs motivated by whichever aristocrat they pay respect to, fighting pointlessly, killing their own kind. The complete inverse of a hierarchical order.
Any good books on the topic? Been meaning to read more on the caliphates
Thought provoking.
12:10 Curtis takes a brave stance against anti-Cambrianism.
What is anti-Cambrianism? Google didn’t provide any meaningful results. All I’m getting is stuff about the Cambrian Explosion millions of years ago
@cpebud Google is almost worthless now. Cambrian also means Welsh.
@@oraz. gotcha. And what was he referencing when referring to “anti-Cambrian protests”
Ozempic Yarvin.....
All the elites are on it
🏴♥️✝️
Excellent thank you.
This is prescient; kings are returning, and soon.
Great conversation. A point of pedantry, Emperor John (Yohannes) died in battle in 1889. Would love to hear if any kings fought in battle more recently than that.
Woke culture is to a great extent, “performative’’ and while this has led to its rapid ascendency this same “performative’’ attribute delineated Woke culture’s deficiency/absence of concrete answers, and or reasoning. Beyond that Woke culture must have DEI, Diversity, everywhere, tomorrow because not having DEI, Diversity, everywhere, tomorrow is racist.
Woke - When you see racism and injustice in an omnipresent cloud, everywhere, in every direction. In every action, word, and thought. When you see racism and injustice in every action, word, and thought with the notable exclusion of within your own sanctimonious hypocritical behaviour.
Not sure what this has to do with the video, but those are some great points and I agree. 🤣
"something greek and racist"
sums up classical philology.
As an American my concerns are focused on oligarchs who seem to have taken over everything including most of our government. Trump seems to be the only one standing between democracy in America and the demise of our country.
One of his best
@16:00, seems certain that the manufacturer of yellow vests was behind the uniform idea.
Great interview
Love Uncle Yarv... think the Roosevelt speech has reached it's zenith and it's time for retirement. Good talk. 🫡
I've been reading his new new blog posts it seems like his best so far
Man this was good
🔥♥️🔥
Thank you.
I like Yarvin, but I swear, he used the word 'basically' at least 50 times in this video. Followed very closely by, and in a dead heat with each other, 'like' and 'you know'.
Sure. Sure. Sure, sure, sure, sure, sure and so
I personally enjoyed hearing the fake Austrian painter actual FDR speech in Bill & Ted California surfer English. I think it would be hilarious/awesome to see him actually pounding on some podiums and getting some huge crowds worked up in that exact style. 🤣
@ Thanks. Are there go-to book recommendations? I like the guy and find him amusing but would be good if he finished a sentence without getting distracted
And and and and and and
And You Know
Yarvin, always discursive, entertaining, and taking the piss, as it were. The host was patient with him.
Curtis Yarvin is what really became of Donnie darko.
Mr Youknow Yarvin has much to say and all of it alarmingly interesting and insightful. Mr Pitt appaesr to enjoys the American friendliness of it and we sit back and listen to the dialogue which is mostly monologue but that is perhaps what it should be don't you know?
Kurtis thinks that Harris will win 🙄 Time will tell...
I am voting for Harris to accelerate the collapse. I am voting several times for her and I am not even a US citizen.
Very interesting, and funny resemblance to my husband
I really want to hear Trump's version of FDR's address.
How do we restore traditional native sovereign democracy?
That is a great question
You don't.
It's far more likely that we find ourselves under a foreign theocracy.
There is no such thing.
Why would you? To have it breakdown again in your grandchildren’s time?
The cryptojew never mentions by which ideal the monarchy would be led. Of course he won’t mention the fact that the most successful monarchies in history were Catholic
@Jozaaaa He's just innocently and altruisticly looking out for the best interests of Anglo men, I'm sure.
Your arteries are hardening as this stupid rage consumes you.
Hmm most successful monarchs. Queen Victoria, Gengis Khan, Alexander, Julius Ceasar. OK I'll give you Charlemagne.
@@the_Kurgan Khan, Caeser and Alexander were not kings tbough, rather Emperors.
What could be argued was that they were legitimised by a belief in a 'divine right'
Wrong. Return to Pagan Imperialism.
Curtis looking like a panty dropper.
Very interesting.
Very interesting indeed

What's he using for weight loss ?

That gray cat is out of control.
I like the little boy sniggering. If Keanu Reeves was an intellectual.
Yarvin is not our guy.
Could you turn caption on?
Fascinating. We need clever guys like this to illumine a path.
11:51 🐈⬛️
1:00:00 “H aimed at world domination”
What?
That was said sarcastically
Yarvin's goal here seems to be to convince a certain contingent that anything they do will be ineffectual. To demoralize. Who does he work for?
The Nxxxs living in Antarctica. He's being realistic, but the interview gets a long, detailed whitepill way forward from him both in the case of the US and the UK towards the end.
Jews
I like yarvin a lot but also skeptical cause little hat
Fair enough but he's not doing typical little hat man things, and he has spoken about his ancestors rather frankly in ways that little hat men don't.
You should check out his interview with Kisin (another hat who has made a video saying why communism was worse than Austrian painter, due to Orwellian thought control by communists, private property under painter, etc.). There's a part in there where Yarvin says basically every conspiracy theory about WW2 except H-caust denial is basically true or has a huge element of truth to it. You might enjoy it.
@@ShimobeSama communists and not-sees are two sides of a progressive coin; both envision a utopian end or eschaton, a dialectical operating system that leads, eventually, toward the same goal. Communism is designed to debase national, ethnic and individual identity, nat soc/fascism is designed to counter the commies with a mythology of birth right and national or ethnic identity that has been attacked leading to the failure of the fascists to be later pushed along toward the synthesis of communism and fascism with an emasculated citizenry - German, Japan, Italy and Spain all evidence this function.
i get it lol. Dont let that detract you. It could be argued he is a form of hedging their bets or even planting someone in this camp early to potentially serve as controlled opposition, but that doesn't mean his points presented in the video aren't valid. Always stay suspicious but also follow your intuitions and pattern recognition.
….if divine kingship…then divine legitimacy….
…divine kingship is however conferred by anointment and requires a priest-prophet to make the anointment - the (?) ultimate consideration then is whether or not such a possibility yet exists or else how ‘the lively oracles’ might creatively represent such again to general safety and to burn through the scarring barbs of Kantian rationalistics manifesting in material cultures such as Marx’s, Freud’s and Darwin’s and their combination with the hapless delusion of La Conte’s Positivism! - and from which Blair’s political leukaemia - and this itself heir to the further difficulty of Fabian disdain/‘patronage’ of ‘lower’ classes and its core vicious and vitiating relativism regarding Power….perhaps🤯😂…..
Was lottle Soenser waiting for this ?

Glasshoppa!
Great interview with Templeton the rat
But can Yarvin cook?
Most intelligent man alive
Why not a Godelian computer❤

Explain why
@@georgerafa5041 Trace amounts of Middle Eastern ancestry that have magical demonic powers to connect one to some kind of interdimensional hivemind that's impossible to break free from and no one even wants to break free from, according to people on the internet.
Bullshit. He’s a realist.
did Yarvin get the aids?
joking aside, I hope he's in good health and just dieting/exercising.
There's another recent video where he talks about Ozempic, and makes some half-jokes about saving money with ghetto off-brand DIY equivalents or whatever. It's hard to tell how much of it is serious and how much is a joke. 🤣
Interesting that Yarvin never mentions Thomas Hobbes, having basically an identical central thesis.
He mentions Hobbes in UR
He goes deep into history if you read his stuff
@Kwisatz-Chaderach As in, "what I'm advocating is essentially Thomas Hobbes"?
@@candidlens Except he's not........Curtis' idea is more like a joint stock company than an absolute monarchy. Like a whole bunch of them like the HRE. You should check out UR and Patchwork.
@Kwisatz-Chaderach Thanks, will do. In the, at least, 20 interviews I've heard in recent years he advocates government as corporation with one autocratic sovereign at the top, citing unparalleled efficiency and good results by analogy.
... I'm not bright enough to understand lots of what Mr Yarvin says. He does however seem to be a little too sure of, well everything, and that always seems very dangerous. Very.
OVER MY COLD DEAD BODY
AND MANY OTHERS JUST LIKE ME
I find no evidence that the word "Welsh" means immigrant. Anyone else fact check this claim by Yarvin?
> In England, the Anglo-Saxon language had long supplanted the old Brittonic languages, and the English words "Wales" and "Welsh", meaning "foreigners", came to be used to describe the free lands to the west.
en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cultural_relationship_between_the_Welsh_and_the_English
Yarvin please find an orator to give you some advice before giving a speech
This guy is straight up un-American
Yeah he wants to go back to having a king, it's about as unamerican as it gets
England has always been a land of foreigners, eh, care to back that up? Genetic analysis indicates the British are mostly related to the original neolithic farmers. I know that the case in Ireland. We've been here so long we have developed our own skin colour, translucent. The Celts and vikings and Saxons didn't leave that large a genetic imprint.
I'm pretty sure that was a joke making fun of woke neoliberals. These two would be some of the last people to seriously argue that.
He was being sarcastic.
@@samuelprice2461 ah, I see
I was taking them really seriously and then they just started laughing like little kids about chavs and the labor party being best described as "its complicated relationship", i mean come on, you cant go from serious greek/roman political analysis to that in a couple seconds
Curtis please. STOP TO SAY YOU KNOW YOU KNOW YOU KNOW HUNDRESS OF TIMES. This destroys your speech and makes you look like unable to articulate a proper idea. It makes me almost impossible to follow you, even when I’m quite interested in your ideas.
Yeah it'll be a while before he's pounding on any podiums, but at least he has a better speed and cadence than Musk, who seems like he still isn't really that used to public speaking after all these years of doing it, and has a hard time getting into a flow state where he doesn't have to perform a million computations just to figure out how he wants to word something fairly basic.
I just kind of noticed that Yarvin and Tucker actually have a lot of mannerisms and peculiarities about their speech patterns in common. Try watching either of them and looking for them. It's kind of uncanny. Interesting contrast though is that Tucker is actually a really good public speaker that can get a huge crowd of plebes really riled up. Maybe Yarvin can learn how to work a crowd from him since their mannerisms are almost the same anyway so we can get him pounding on some podiums.
you know, you know , you know, you know. ffs please remove that from your speech Yarvin, its intolerable
Curtis you look great nice hair cut and you lose some weight, been hitting the gym?

Abrahamic religion and mentality castrated the native culture of Europe. It's inherently fear based, passive aggressively despotic, apocalyptic and utopian. Woke is just the Jungian shadow. A revival of the native Indo European religion, mindset and culture of Europe is vital to any other solutions.
@S.J.L Yes, it's a morality rooted in the slave mentality of ancient Egypt according to Nietzsche. He speaks of the need for the return of the blonde beast, you may know.
What native Indo-European religion? What mindset? Europe was a disparate wilderness of warring tribes and states from the dawn of time until the Roman subjugation. And even Rome began crumbling after scarcely a century or two.
The "Abrahamic religion" that rose from the ashes has proven itself to be one of the most resilient, unifying, and vivacious forces in the last 2000 years of human history. It's only since Europe began to abandon that religion in earnest starting in the middle of the 20th century that we began to find ourselves in the current predicament.
@vel0xraperio There's some truth to what you say, but it's also true that a fair portion of the Christian message was never fully in accord with the true essential nature of Europeans, as Andrew Klavan has pointed out. Prior to the top-down forced conversion of Europe, Europeans worshipped gods similar to those of the Ancient Greeks, their natural ethno-religions. The Mediterranean world and Middle East, though civilized on a grander scale and more urban thanks to ideal geographic conditions, were likewise made up of countless warring tribes prior to Roman subjugation. An early example of Judaic idea warfare can be seen in the destabilizing effect that the spread of Christianity had on the Roman Empire and the ensuing dark ages.. A theme often recurring.
@vel0xraperio Also, it was the return to classical ideals during the Renaissance that really made Europe, according to many. The Romans copied the Greeks. Northern Europeans played their role in the bronze aged world and are mentioned as being larger warriors. Fair-haired Menelaus was certainly European.
Christianity is anything but utopian, it's rather the opposite; let's not conflate this world with the after life, whether you believe in one or not;
also, considering the wild unprecedented success of Europe over the last 15 hundred years, you whole statement sounds idiotic
A nation of immigrants, huh?
What's this guy's early life?
