  • Hannah Ardent

    “Race was the [South African] Boers’ answer to the overwhelming monstrosity of Africa – a whole continent populated and overpopulated by savages.”

    She writes of the “dark continent,” a “world of native savages was a perfect setting for men who had escaped the reality of civilization…human beings who, living without the future of a purpose and the past of an accomplishment, were as incomprehensible as the inmates of a madhouse.”

    Arendt praised colonialism, calling it a “form of achievement” carried out in “exotic countries.” Exterminating native peoples was fine because it was “quite in keeping with the traditions of these tribes themselves. Extermination of hostile tribes had been the rule in all African native wars.”

    Describing Israel, Arendt noted that the country had at its top German judges of whom she approved as the “best of German Jewry.” Below them were prosecuting attorneys, one of whom, a Galician Jew, was “still European,” she noted. “Everything is organized by the Israeli police force which gives me the creeps. It speaks only Hebrew and looks Arabic. Some downright brutes among them. They obey any order. Outside the courthouse doors the oriental mob, as if one were in Istanbul or some other half-Asiatic country.” People who looked Arab were seen as disgusting by Arendt. “Orientals” were part of a “mob,” similar to the “savages” she had described in her previous writing.

  • ) how Platner is a neo-nazi and not just a shitty blackwater guy

    America is a fascist country, Platner bragged about killing 100’s of Muslim civilians on reddit and did 4 tours in the middle east, one for Blackwater which obviously as we both know killed millions of people defending there own countries in the two attempted genocides in both gulf wars as well as oversaw the concentration and torture black-sites used in both wars as well - imagine knowing that there where active concentration camps in your own military and then with glee singing up for that same military 4 times.

    Platner had a literal totenkompf tattoo on his chest, are we really going to pretend someone like that is reformable?

    I would trust an average school janitor to run a country more than this guy, why are we defending him because our favorite pet streamer platformed him?

    You should read ‘Ideology and State Apparatus’ and understand that twitch/streamers/online is just another extension of the upper classes ideological hegemony and is an arm of the state, which is why it permits social democracy within its own spheres as the upper class have an indepth understanding of politcal theory and how to effectively utilize it to lead the masses down false paths. The only reason why you care about social democracy, Hasan and are spending time arguing for them is because they allow them to be rich and influential on the platforms that they own - its why they say the revolution wont be televised, who do you think decides who is allowed on the television?




  • In the context of American politics, however, that particular politician is actually pretty radical.

    My entire extended family where killed by people with that tattoo assigned to them, are you for real?

    If this is the best American politics has to offer. we’re essentially arguing which nazi would be best at running the concentration camps, we’ve already lost.
