WORTH REPEATING

(read this as a lament that the anglos foolishly truncated the german evolution into empire and the full maturity of german thought.)

***It’s that as intellectual work, excuse-making (the german rationalist model) and social engineering (the anglo legal model) are for different purposes: reinforcing the existing behaviors (germans) as a means of territorial defense, and colonizing new people (anglos) as a means of expanding commercial empires. Anglos and Romans dominated the world with Law and accounting, insured by arms. Germany never got to her empire phase because the Anglos and Russians (foolishly) stopped her. But if it had happened, then germans would have had to make the same transition from a philosophy of justification (how we should be) to a philosophy of law (we can be anything but what we must not be).

Once you understand this difference between justificationary reinforcement of existing ideas and operational transformation to new ideas, you’ll understand the difference between german domestic philosophy and anglo roman imperial philosophy and why germans use new-Christianity rationalism and anglos use rule of law.***
