/funpol/ - Anti rulefaggot political board

Depends on the definition of failed. Until the kikes conspired to sucker the world into a war against Germany, Hitler did fix it.

Btw do you call what is happening in Europe today as success? Shitskins from all over the planet are moving into Europe and ruining it. Your democracy is only facilitating it, not stopping it. God help me if I would love me some totalitarianism now.

The problem in these cases is 'Liberal' Democracy with a capital L. Democracy per se could have prevented this but you Nazi faggots ruined any chance of this by basically giving nationalism a bad name. Nationalism became a dirty word. Thanks Nazis

Democracies with Strong Written constitutions and Presidential Governments could have prevented this.

I must confess that my knowledge of the politics of Sparta is limited, So iIll concede your point that it was a totalitarian regime. Even so this is a regime that goes back more than two millennium in history, so I have no idea how relevant a political system like that would be if transplanted to modern day.

The root of the problem, according to me is that Totalitarianism ultimately is the state deciding which ideas are acceptable and which are not. An offshoot of this is that state gets to decide what knowledge is good and what knowledge is bad. This runs counter to the fundamental principle of scientific discovery which doesn't really discriminate in this manner. This is why all such systems will eventually stagnate and die.

Humanity naturally is conservative. In most aspects of life this isn't a flaw but a benefit. However this natural conservatism of humanity is flaw when you factor in evolution - the idea that life is about change and adapting to change.

Well it was objectively a no fun allowed place, even by /pol/ standards, of negative eugenics and slave based economy but it was still an influential, respected and feared regional power for half millenia that actually managed to serially kick an ecumenical Empires' shit all the way to Armenia more than a century earlier than Alexander.

So we can rather safely conclude it was a functional and viable model of totalitarianism for the pre-emancipation era. Of course they had lots of enemies but more often than not they managed to kick their shit and even grab their oversea colonies.

What about the centuries of total monarchy that dominated most of history?

You'll have to identify these totalitarian monarchies m8. In any case all these systems of a past eras face the problem of applicability in the modern age. Preferably if you could provide examples at least in the past 300 years we could discuss them.
