Izzat True?
Boromir was dumb enough to try and steal the Ring. He wasn’t so blitheringly idiotic to think that the only way of beating Sauron is to become an ork.
Neopagans are that stupid.
Imperium Press regularly declares the “White race” should practice Izzat.
Since Christianity’s “le great oppressor”, he has to find another reason for Europe’s success. Since European “guilt cultures” are uniquely Christian, he’s forced to claim:
The problem with the izzat greentext (you should read the whole thing) is that it assumes that meritocracy can stand independent of the social capital generated by honour-shame systems. These systems enforce reliability, promise keeping, selfrestraint, and social coherence, producing exactly the behavioural traits that meritocracy assumes. But meritocracy denies the legitimacy of these honour systems…
Izzat (what we call honour culture) is the micro-foundation of public legitimacy in a pre- or post-liberal fragmented environment. It regulates behaviour where state authority collapses. The racist liberal finds it a bit uncouth, and so his solution is to try to recreate that state authority, but what the liberal doesn’t realize is that it was izzat, or this honour culture, that built the state in the first place.

Shame cultures can at best preserve and copy. This is how East Asia’s doing well currently: they copied aspects of cultural Christianity: westernness. India however:

Thanks for the highlight!
