by Adam Voight The morality of Achilles is two fold: 1) Freedom – Rulers do not own the ruled; rulers owe their power to attracting good subjects who will fight for them and serve them. This is revealed in Achilles’ dealings with Agamemnon and Menelaos. 2) Universal Honor code – Just because you are fighting a war against some nation, does not mean that you hate those people or deal with them dishonorably. All just war is just insofar as it is fought for honor and fought with honor. The fact that Achilles recognizes the honor of the Trojans when he returns Hector’s body and when he dies accepting the Trojan’s word that it was the Greeks who broke the cease-fire.

—“why Are We Not Seeing a Shock from Gender Asymmetry in India and China?”—
1- Economic opportunity is masking conflict – as it always does. The return of economic limitations restores group conflicts. 2 – Substantial underclass populations still preserving family. 3 – So there is sex pressure but still hope. 4 – And there is marriage retention and still hope. 5 – Unlike the west, they are not wealthy enough to destroy the economic security of the family. 6 – Japan is the … oddity. (Low testosterone in asian men is not a good thing) In any society where the woman are capable of both single motherhood and middle class (technological) workplace substitution of men, we should see a retreat to serial marriage and excess males. Males are cost to a woman while raising children if they are working. This same effect won’t occur in populations with IQ’s below 95 (massive underclasses). And the upper classes will always find greater competitive and status value in dual incomes or high male income with supported females. Without eugenics either environmental, agrarian, or political, it is very hard to maintain human advancement.

The Matters Of Europa
THE MATTER OF SCANDIAVIA The Eddas. Scandianvian Mythology
THE MATTER OF GERMANY Germanic Mythology
THE MATTER OF ENGLAND https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Matter_of_England
“THE MATTER OF IRELAND” https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ulster_Cycle
THE MATTER OF FRANCE (the Carolingian Cycle) —“The Matter of France, also known as the Carolingian cycle, is a body of literature and legendary material associated with the history of France, in particular involving Charlemagne and his associates. The cycle springs from the Old French chansons de geste, and was later adapted into a variety of art forms, including Renaissance epics and operas. Together with the Matter of Britain, which concerned King Arthur, and the Matter of Rome, comprising material derived from and inspired by classical mythology, it was one of the great literary cycles that figured repeatedly in medieval literature.”—
THE MATTER OF TROY (GREECE) Homer. Enuff Said.
THE MATTER OF ROME —“According to the medieval poet Jean Bodel, the Matter of Rome was the literary cycle made up of Greek and Roman mythology, together with episodes from the history of classical antiquity, focusing on military heroes like Alexander the Great and Julius Caesar. Bodel divided all the literary cycles he knew best into the Matter of Britain, the Matter of France and the Matter of Rome. The Matter of Rome also included what is referred to as the Matter of Troy, consisting of romances and other texts based on the Trojan War and its after-effects, including the adventures of Aeneas.”—

—“Truth? I thought you just told the truth, and that’s it!”—
Well, you can speak honestly regardless of whether what you say is true. It’s the level of falsification you apply and the warranty you put behind it. Honest > Truthful > True > Analytically True > Tautological. Honest(personal but not instrumental due diligence complete) > Truthful(instrumental Due diligence complete) > True(proper) > Analytic Truth(math, logic) > Tautological. Man of us are honest, truthfulness takes time and effort, we rarely if ever know what’s true due to informational incompleteness, and tautology is meaningless repetition.

—“Do you have to be right-Wing and emotionless to be a masculine / real man ?”—
Um. I dunno about emotionless, but if that means “not open to femininemanipulation or argumentative sophistry”, then yes. As far as I know to be a left wing man requires you’re effeminate in temperament, suggestible under effeminate manipulation, a practitioner of argumentative sophistry, and you are completely ignorant of demographics, genetics, economics, and the behavior of people in organizations and groups. I mean. That’s pretty much on the mark.
