Mussolini on Moral Relativism

Everything I have said and done is these last years is relativism, by intuition. From the fact that all ideologies are of equal value, that all ideologies are mere fictions, the modern relativist infers that everybody has the right to create for himself his own ideology, and to attempt to enforce it with all the energy of which he is capable. If relativism signifies contempt for fixed categories, and men who claim to be the bearers of an objective immortal truth, then there is nothing more relativistic than fascism.

—Benito Mussolini, Diuturna (1921)

Reminds me of our political campaigns: so ideological yet so fictional. The modus operandi of most campaigning politicians seems to be deception in the pursuit of power.

Love the Kierkegaard quote in the title, by the way.

It's unfortunately true: Machiavelli rules the day. There are a few exceptions, but they come around very infrequently.

Sigh

But Kierkegaard is great!

Hey just wanted to give you a quick heads up.

The text in your article seem to be running off
the screen in Safari. I'm not sure if this is a formatting issue or something to do with internet browser compatibility but I figured I'd post to let you know.
The layout look great though! Hope you get the problem solved soon.
Many thanks

My coder is trying to persuade me to move to .net from PHP.
I have always disliked the idea because of the costs.

But he's tryiong none the less. I've been
using Movable-type on various websites for about a
year and am nervous about switching to another platform.
I have heard great things about blogengine.net.
Is there a way I can transfer all my wordpress content into
it? Any help would be greatly appreciated!

correct this problem. If you have any recommendations, please
share. Many thanks!

I know this if off topic but I'm looking into starting my own blog and was wondering what all is required to get set up? I'm assuming having a
blog like yours would cost a pretty penny? I'm not very web smart so I'm
not 100% positive. Any suggestions or advice would be greatly appreciated. Appreciate it

Hi. I noticed your website title, "Blogger: Civics Geeks" doesn't really reflect the content of your web site. When composing your website title, do you believe it's most
beneficial to write it for Web optimization or for your
readers? This is something I've been battling with due to the fact I want great rankings but at the same time I want the best quality for my site visitors.

Hello! I'm about to begin my own blog and was wondering if you know where the best place to acquire a blog url is? I am not even sure if that's
what its known as? (I'm new to this) I'm referring to "http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=4669958696229907702&postID=4823265694769720946".

Hey just wanted to give you a brief heads up and let you know a few of the pictures
aren't loading properly. I'm not sure why but I think its a
linking issue. I've tried it in two different web browsers and both show the same outcome.

Hello there! I know this is kinda off topic however I'd figured I'd ask.
Would you be interested in exchanging links or maybe guest authoring a blog
post or vice-versa? My site covers a lot of the same subjects as yours and I
feel we could greatly benefit from each other.
If you happen to be interested feel free to shoot me an email.

I look forward to hearing from you! Superb blog by the way!

The most effective way in order to avoid a unsafe
problem will be to not get in the unsafe problem. The
concept is traced to some Northern League leader in the course of the fight he was struck by some birds that were resting on indications Lombard generating sense the victory.
Now everyone has listened to that ahead of many situations at their Martial Arts college, but till you might have
truly performed it in a true battle, you do not truly
imagine it.
