Quote by: Epistemologist  What do you mean I don't understand? I never said anything about revenge. Two cultures would obviously have two different intersubjective truths, and they'd be conflicting with each other since the existence of one threatens the existence of the other as that distinct entity. They fight for expansion and solidarity in relation to that intersubjective truth that they hold so dear.
So, some cultures e.g. African cultures may not attack others because they may not have enough initiative or even "might" to do so. However, Muslim cultures are attacking Western cultures because they are being stuck in a corner. And Hitler's German nationalism is another example. And the eviction of Native Americans is yet another.
Since the absolute truth can't be absolutely decided, every culture's goal is to make its intersubjective truth the single truth on Earth. That's a natural tendency, although some cultures e.g. the ones I mentioned may not be able to satisfy that tendency due to laziness, inefficiency, fear, etc.
The concept of "might makes right" is explicitly connected to the concept of cultural conflict and thus cultural differences since each culture has its own intersubjective truth or ontology that it must preserve. |
Your entire post is summed up as "might makes right" is a conflict between two cultures.
Whats the phrase im looking for?
No $*#@ Sherlock!
Thats like saying war is a conflict between two sides, why are you stating the obvious?
But again, its clear you havent ever heard of "Might makes right" before, ill help you out
Might makes right - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
In English, the phrase is most often used in negative assessments of expressions of power.
Also your posts look like they went through some kind of online translation website, did they?
If not, why do you speak that way? what kind of education have you been though?
