Supposedly she died while horsefucking because the harness she used to suspend the horse above her broke causing the horse to fall and crush her.
As you said though the horsefucking was almost certainly just propaganda made up by her enemies.

How did the ancient Greeks train?

Anonymous Thu 10 Dec 2015 05:05:07 No.385717 View View Reply Last 50 Original Report

Quoted By:

It is well known that the ancient Greeks were very fit, but there is a lot of controversy over how they trained.

How did they train? Obviously this didn't have barbells and such. How did they get such a massive core (pic related)?

While some may believe that /fit/ would be a better board to post this, I feel like /his/ would have more information to weigh in on the subject.

Not middle management. I should know, I've worked in it.

The sad thing is that the Dilbert Principle is real. The most incompetent people that are for whatever reason unfireable are put into management positions where they can't do any real damage.

Thread 404'd when I'd already typed out this behemoth comment, so fuck it. Mods are fags.

Econ PhD student here. I think there are a couple reasons so few on the extreme left study economics at the graduate level, which is a necessary condition to become an academic economist.

1) Self-selection. I suspect that most people who identify as Marxists or have similar beliefs have an extreme aversion to mainstream economics in the same way that I and most others on this board have an extreme aversion to gender studies. Therefore they choose not to study it at the graduate (or even undergraduate) level opting instead to find another line of work or study since they perceive mainstream economics as incompatible with their ideological beliefs, perhaps at a foundational level.

2) Math. While your undergraduate economics courses might have given you a different impression, academic economics is actually very mathematically rigorous (scroll through some of the articles in Econometrica if you don't believe me)*. I've noticed that people on the extreme left tend to have relatively weak quantitative skills, so I think most bona fide Marxists would have trouble getting into and completing an Econ PhD. You basically need to be a math major with a high GPA (among other things) to get in. How many extreme lefties do you know that fit that bill? The reason why mainstream economics has become so mathematical is another discussion...

3) Network effects. If you spend all your time around academic economists, you'll likely pick up some of their beliefs.

>Iran wouldn't be in any better a position right now if Mossadegh was allowed to stay in power. He would have been just as authoritarian as the Shah if he had been allowed to stay in power and so would any of his socialist ridden cabinet if they succeeded him. More to the point the Islamic revolutionaries of 79 were opposed to any government which wasn't dominated by the clergy like they have now.

Conjecture, but even so if Iran was shouting "death to gommies" instead of "death to Amerika" it's already be in a better position. This resistance axis meme is an excuse for shitholes to behave like shitholes and any criticism is "western imperialism"

That's more to do with globalization than anything else. As economies are so inter-connected these days, you end up hurting yourself by attacking your neighbours. Oil is the one substance impervious to this, as control of it is obviously very advantageous. Spice must flow.

I don't agree with the principle of Modernism, and I feel it tries to reject a lot of core traits many societies has in favor of a so called "objective" and "progressive" view.

>>77779
Romanticism often analyzed the darker side of human nature and the causes of it, as opposed to accepting it in face value.

I don't agree with embracing nationalistic or romantic form of history, I thought we were talking about formal Romanticism, not romantic values?

Still, it is a rejection of traditional and classical values that Modernism had but without the acceptance of the "Rational Theory" of life since it had many "problematic" views.
I'd say a lot of it has been blocked by a lot of people pretending to try to use history as an example in a underhanded way to push their agenda.
