Thomas Carlyle was a fraudulent, racist charlatan who propagated the myth of the Teutonic race (which never existed), a direct precursor to Nazi ideology.

He kinda does look like a chud if you imagine him without the exquisite beard and hair

Who cares

He was super based (überbasiert)

>He disliked Jews - claiming that they had no sense of humour. Standing in front of Rothschild's house at Hyde Park Corner, Allingham reports in his diary, Carlyle imagined himself King John demanding money from a rich Jew -'palaces or pincers'. " 'You won't?' Carlyle gives a twist of his wrist. 'Now will you?', and then another twist, till the millions were yielded." This unpleasant piece of sadistic fantasy, torturing rich Jews, exceeds the conventional anti-semitism of the period.

And glasses, and a different face

Sartor Resartus is one of the best novels ever written, along with Don Quixote

Stop posting yourself mate.

next time the atlanteans will drown you instead

Thanks will look into him

says you

Where do i start?

Has anyone here read his biography of Frederick the Great?

I have his complete works.

I own it

I recommend his essay Signs of the Times to get a sense of his completely unique prose. Heroes and Hero Worship would probably appeal most to Yea Forums since it's a romantic metaphysical treatment of the Great Man.

His essay on Chartism (British socialism basically) was hugely influential for decades, including on Marx and Engels. The story of the burning of the first draft of his French Revolution is also insane.

So we know what you think about why his work is or may be well-received, but what do you think of his work? At least favorites, least favorites, why?

Sign of the Times strikes me as unique in being one of the first explorations of the consequences (after the fact) of the Industrial Revolution and the ascendancy of liberalism (leading to the primacy of the Mechanical for Carlyle). Particularly notable (or at least humorous) for me was his comparison between the religiosity of the millenarians and the utilitarians. While his analyses are hardly groundbreaking today, I find his value is in his ability to ask and explore the important questions (which are still yet to be answered), and from a perspective much closer to the outside than we are normally able to muster. Even if his romanticism can hardly be expected to shed light on the correct answers, he always seems to make the best argument possible for his case.

Sounds based!

>Thomas Carlyle
You keep posting this guy and I don't even know who he is.

It's 2022 and human beings are still using the term "racist" as a genuine denigration toward someone's character and expect to be taken seriously on an intellectual forum.

You're not going to get very far with this type of thinking, my guy. Carlyle is 1000x the human you will ever be.

how did carlyle influence marx and engels?

how is racist not a denigration? it demonstrates an irrational bias

Because judging based on race is not irrational. Biases are perfectly helpful and rational when they are based in reality.

an entirely subjective assessment.

pattern recognition is one of the most objective phenomena to be aware of, and your war against it is most pathetic

stop responding to trolls

you got btfo by the other user

this kills the debatelord. Good job user.

no, it is literally subjective because it is based on each individual's experiences and heuristics. Plus, if it were objective, AI would be a lot goddamn farther along than it is.

I'm on a boring conference call, I'll do whatever the fuck I want to pass the time.

Nope, still here fucker!

Imagine this user, he has to work on a farm and the farmers tells him he needs to pick out the weeds between the green shoots of grain, to bad user is not a racist so half the time he picks out the grain shoots. Leftists are stupid.

imagine being so craven as to not say what you area really thinking and resorting to weak analogies.

>no, it is literally subjective because it is based on each individual's experiences and heuristics.
This would apply to your neoliberal concepts like racism, lol.

actually no. Equal treatment is the absence of bias. How are you so dumb as to not understand this?

>Yeah well... racism is subjective
Damn you really gave up after like 4 posts?

it seems you struggle with reading comprehension.

Not even an analogy, its basically the same thing. If you cant tell the difference between lets say a crow or a raven, or between two species of mushroom, you are officially stupid.

>still making spurious comparisons
oh so you're saying other races are different species? Citation fucking required.

Equal treatment is evil and insane, bias is perfectly oke, except when people like you are biased against people like me.

I don't know anything about you other than you're an idiot, and I admit my bias against idiots.

Oh and please expound on how equal treatment is evil and insane. Feel free to drop those n bombs you're bottling up.

Lol trying to change the discussion.

Lol, imagine walking up to a pitbul and petting it, this user would do so. Lol

Anyone who does not have the abilities of a naturalist should be sterilised.

>Racism is an irrational bias
>....Actually its subjective
>Nevermind I base my worldview on subjectiveness
Damn you actually gave up after only 1 post

>I admit my bias against idiots.
Here we go, just took one post and this user has already rejected his previous believes as inconvenient. Morality is just a tool these sociopaths use to gain power.

no, I'm directly challenging your assertions. There's no change here, so you must be ESL or something to fail to understand that.

You're inferring there are species/subspecies dynamics at play with regard to race, but you can't prove that claim. So you dance around it and refuse to back it up because you know the foundation of your argument is built on sand.

Irrationality and subjectivity go hand in hand shit-for-brains.

I rejected no beliefs, I just insulted you.

>Irrationality and subjectivity go hand in hand shit-for-brains.

That's just subjective speculation you ass eating nigger

no, it's logic. If you got t-boned by a redhead and concluded all redheads are bad drivers, you have made a subjective but irrational judgment.

>You're inferring there are species/subspecies dynamics at play with regard to race, but you can't prove that claim.
Nope, never said that, you are so dumb, if someone had small beady eyes or a bad skin, you wouldnt notice or use that too understand their character because you lack the required intelligence.

Holy shit this reddit tranny has never heard of either inductive or deductive reasoning. You should start at the beginning (ABCs, basic arithmetic) and work your way up again

>running away from his own insinuations
weak shit user, weak fucking shit

>refuses to explain his own biases
13 minutes left in my meeting, give me your best shot.

Thats my whole point, he literally is unable to tell different objects apart or animals apart, because his mind simply does not look for the details that seperate them. Its like some ancient bronze age language where snake, worm and rope are all the same thing.

>weak shit user, weak fucking shit
If you can not tell the difference between animals or people or plants based on their appearance, you are stupid. Period. This whole discussion and the whole concept of racism is about leftists trying to disappear the prove of their stupidity.

Wasn't he madly in love with a Pajeeta?

>meeting
Fuck me, i can imagine it, the entire table surrounded by the underclass of society, just blabbing away, using vague abstract concepts that dont mean anything.

Shave the beard, Cut the Hair, Put Glasses on him and Caryle is 1800s Chud incarnate.

No

I never said you can't tell the difference, but you're the one who can't quite bring himself to say what he's thinking that means. Just say it.

enjoying the NEET life?

>never said you can't tell the difference
If there is difference, it can not be equal.

don't distort your own argument. No two people are identical, even twins due to epigenetics and epistemics, so that's a stupid way to position it.

>No two people are identical, even twins due to epigenetics and epistemics
Therefor equality does not exist.

I never said it did you dunce. But all people deserve equal treatment.
