user, that was a compliment. You don't need a comeback for it.

Lmao he got you.

Ouch

nigga was hitting on you

“Western civilization” does not exist. Eastern civilization does, though.

How can an "Eastern civ" exist when there is no "western civ"

“The west” is a social construct. There’s no definitive marking between what is “western” and what isn’t.

>“The west” is a social construct.

what isnt a social construct?

Same for eastern, then.

That's not Jaden Smith

western civilisation was born at the battle of marathon.
please know what youre talking about before going on an autistic image board

History, science, justice, etc.

“Westernism” is just a lens through which truths like these can be warped.

No.

So the day before that battle, the participants weren’t western but the day after they were?

>No
why?

>History, science, justice, etc.

those are all social constructs. they all have no meaning beyond what man makes of them.

Yeah, western civilization doesn't exist. White civilization does though.

History exists whether man observes it or not. The current state of things is perpetually dependent upon it.

Unless you’re one of those retards who thinks falling trees stop making noise when humans aren’t around.

yeah

Cast him.

Im here to state facts, user. Ofcourse we can delve into this in a philosophy thread but its purely opinion from me here.
I see it as the moment western ideas were shown as superior. the values were still there the day before but battle of marathon is the huge clash

No such thing as white.

>if you don't respond to pasta in a very specific way then you're a newfag
Fuck off retard

>western ideas were shown as superior
Only in the eyes of fascists.

>History exists whether man observes it or not.

You're arguing that reality exists independent of observation. Which I agree with, but what what and me you call "reality" or the perception of some state of affairs, is all too fragile user.

Who was fascist at the time of Marathon? Pericles?

Well, events happen, sure, but thats not what history is. History is mans understanding of past events in relation to his present circumstance. Thucydides is history, Toynbee is history.

A proto-fascist, yes.

My cum in your moms pussy is white.

Caligula, of course.

No such thing as black

>“Western civilization” does not exist
It used to, before liberalism (not in the American sense) destroyed it and left us with nothing but nihilism.

if Heraclitus was the father of western philosophy we would be colonizing other planets right now
