Samo Burja’s (@SamoBurja) work on the great man hypothesis isn’t (that I now of) out yet. But I don’t see the insight yet if there is one. We know cycles of biz, econ, gen, culture, empires, civs. We know great men are archetypes – systems of measurement for the new ‘theory’. So?

Anime is effeminate and pubescent, and I can’t tolerate it, because it conveys the asian aesthetic of weakness. But if it works for some, and I guess it does, that’s ok. 😉

Well, playwrights are in the woke gutter. Movies are in the woke gutter. TV is in the woke gutter. Media is in the woke gutter. So, of late (and increasingly so) the real world, which is decidedly NOT woke, is providing the ‘entertainment’ (drama) instead of #Woke propagandists.

It was. You’re correct. Historians differ on how effective it was. AFAIK ‘consensus’ if there is one, is that it was more effective in influencing the emergence of up and comers than the purely military class. Post-Plague europe developed romanticism and the movements merged.

Interestingly, they didn’t adopt it. It ended up being adopted by the emerging lower middle classes and middle classes.
Most ‘knights’ were essentially gangsters. 🙁

Not true. It’s (a) introduction of women (b) jewish migration of anti-european tradition into USA w/ example of the frankfurt school (c) credentialism that results (d) birth control feminism adopting jewish anti-europeanism (e) capture of education, (f) advocacy of immigration.

There you go. 😉
Well done.
Now reverse it to the dark version:
Who is the most likely to kill the king, warrior, leader?
Wives and servants.
The origin is insurance by betting your life on keeping him alive.

Go back in time. As we go back in time, trust decreases, just as if we go forward in time trust increases. You’re still attributing a higher degree of civilization than existed at the origins of the practice.

MORAL QUESTION
The practice of killing or suicide of a wife, servants, etc upon death. Was this a moral or immoral tradition? Why did this tradition develop? What does it tell us about moral norms and traditions? Why do moral traditions change? What do changes have in common?

It was an exceptional vehicle for reducing the numbers of the aristocracy and nobility who joined the church and monasteries to solve the problem of primogeniture, while keeping land acquired for the church ‘in the family’.
