He lived in a completely different world.

Not everything he said properly applies to today.

To try to apply the world of 1820s Prussia to 2021 America is massively retarded.

Just keep that in mind. Don’t make an idiot of yourself.

But, with every new era, there needs to be a serious review of their philosophy.
You can’t just take their word as Gospel Truth for everything
