10/ Why does this still matter? Hegel’s ideas of freedom and progress still reverberate today, both in theory and in practice. Yet they’re entangled with a logic of tutelage – the belief that some peoples must be “guided” toward freedom – risking a repeat of his errors alongside his insights.

A 1921 Literary Digest map titled “Map of Palestine (British Mandate)”, depicting the territory administered by Britain under the League of Nations Mandate. The map outlines the borders of Palestine, neighbouring Syria and Egypt, and major cities such as Jerusalem, Jaffa, Haifa, Gaza, and Amman. It marks railroads, principal highways, and regions “below sea level”, with shaded zones indicating definite and tentative mandate boundaries. The image visualises the political geography of a League of Nations Class A mandate: territory carved from the Ottoman Empire and placed under European administration “until such time as [its] peoples are able to stand alone”.

Context: In Hegel and Colonialism, we argue that this form of hierarchical sovereignty echoed Hegel’s philosophy of history, which framed colonial domination as an “educational stage” in the world-spirit’s progress toward freedom. The Mandate system’s logic of tutelage – administering “not-yet-mature” nations until “ready” for self-government – reproduced Hegel’s view that freedom develops unevenly across climates and peoples. British Idealists like Edward Caird and Jan Smuts adapted these ideas, recasting empire as a moral duty to guide “backward” peoples toward civilisation. Article 22 of the League’s Covenant codified this rationale by formalising graded classes of sovereignty, institutionalising a hierarchy of political maturity.

Claiming that you're part of a "chosen people" and using that as an excuse to genocide the "lessers", is Nazi shit. The Palestinians are entitled to that land, not Israeli settlers who weren't even born there.

I was hugged in that instance, coldly, at a work function. Happened before I knew what was happening

I haven't willingly chosen to hug someone as a freethinking agent of personal will since mid dec 2024

if the Nazis were “anti-communist“ then explain why their flag was in crimson red? Or why red was an important color nazi occupied territories?
They made it look like communism they made it look like socialism, but it was fascism. the only thing we have to go off history of first hand accounts.
