History is...
The russian state, being for our purposes without philosophy, instead stole from the germans (embracing hegel and marx among others). Yet the russian state ended up with communism, the epitomy of a philosophy in action, the ultimate realization of a rational thought.
The german state was ripe with philosophers who seem to have grown in tiny ill-lit apartments like mushrooms under stone, and they produced endless philosophical dissertations explaining this, that, and the point of eternity. Yet the german state ended up with fascism, which is really quite devoid of any philosophy, at least one beyond the mentality of a preschooler. It could even be defined by its irrational nature.
Its so insane.
