study whatever you'd get A in, get good internships in kind of job you want after or do well on LSAT if you want lawl skrewl or something like that. Major doesn't really matter. If you study anything outside of hard physics expect the pozz. And now it's infected the sciences too

28/Entire purpose of the ""rightwing"" or "trad" reading of the classics (conservative Catholics are complicit in the fraud) is on its surface to refute the left (as also "leftist natzees") and prove that the classics "aren't rayciss" but universal/timeless, about virtue....

29/But what the ""right""wing reading really wants is to claim that the West has no special claim to Greco-Roman antiquity. "You didn't build that." It's not yours, it belongs to the world. You don't exist and in fact never existed. Your ancestors misunderstood the classics.

30/You see Thucydides said his book is a possession for all time. Plato's Republic was Greek but needn't have been (?? idk...but this is something they say); Aristotle and Xenophon showed interest in the social and political organization of foreigners. Therefore...therefore...

31/Because this reading is based on a number of half-truths, as opposed to outright falsehoods (like the leftwing reading) and because it presents itself as a friend of the classics, it's more dangerous...it can seduce naive young students and conservatives....

32/But the intended end-result of rightwing reading of classics is same as that of the left. The "provincialization" or "decolonization" of the West, under the guise of anti-racism and anti-ethnonationalism. Language of Roman imperialism and ancient philosophy is repurposed...

33/In both cases "left" and "right," the kosher takeover of the classics has one message: the West as exists since Hellenistic civilization must cease, and submit itself to a new project, hardly defined, where Westerners are to prove their virtue by deferring to ethnonationalists

34/The makers of English or Roman (or Russian) or other Euro empires had universal aims and ideals. Never once did they think this meant they had to surrender power or resources to aliens, allow them to immigrate, or that the white/European race was not superior...

35/Indeed "white" and "Western" are synonymous, with "white" simply being the word outsiders gave to Westerners in the colonies. Indians called Euros "the white man" and attacked you regardless if you were a Slovak farmer in Tennessee or blueblood Anglo-Norman...

36/The fate and destiny of Western or "white man" in the colonies was a special concern of many 19th c liberals, including e.g. Joseph Conrad, which is why so much hatred and obsessive kvetching has been directed at him (Said built theory of "Orientalism" opposing Conrad)

37/the "anti-racist" project of socalled "rightwing" or trad reading of the classics is in fact anti-Western in intention. The language of universalism and the example of Rome itself is perversely abused to attack Western colonialism, imperialism and universalism as it existed

38/This is abused in same way the universalist ideals or intentions of the American Founders are abused to pretend that, e.g., the Declaration or the Constitution mean that Washington created America to be the playground of 100 million Gambian welfare cases and Azeri car salesmen

39/Behind all this is something you may not yet see, because many on "our" side have also misled you. The Jewish dispute with the West isn't what either they or you would like to think. Since at least Philo they have resented the universalism of the West, tried to modulate it...

41/Globalism as now understood has nothing to do with Western imperialism as existed before 1960 or so. It's action of particular factions/gangs--many you don't know!--who have hijacked Western institutions during Cold War and are trying to receive short-term benefit from chaos

42/Anyway as regards classics, in America and in general in Anglo world after 1950, with collapse of German scholarship, artistic traditions, it was very easy for this group to hijack and modulate founding texts of West, done largely with senile consent of the WASP establishment

43/"conservative" reading of classics--the leftwing falsehood you know already--is a convoluted attempt to get you not to think in political terms of "friend and enemy"; to make you not know that it was thought of self-confident European empire, civilization for ~2500 yrs

44/Above all, the kosher hijacking of the classics...driven ultimately by the various fears, jealousies and resentments I mentioned...has this one main goal, to prevent Western men from taking direct inspiration from ancient Greco-Roman heroes and politics, as Machiavelli did...

45/ And their main goal... to prevent a revival of Hellenism such as was taking place in 19th c-early 20th c Europe and especially Germany, with everything that was leading to...and no I don't mean Natzees, although that is the excuse they use in own minds...

46/ To this end various perverse readings are promoted, especially on the left; the Zuckerface sister hysteria is only the most obvious, and is one step away from burning and banning Plutarch or Homer...
But don't forget the more insidious falsehoods promoted on the """right"""
