>>241915Time will tell.. As for the two theories, as I tend to approach everything individually, saying that there are plenty factors and influances would serve a useful guideline.
And as far as I can tell, both of them are not far from the truth. Potential influance of a person is just as much about chance and circumistances as willpower, cunning or rhethoric of the individual.
You have Ayn Rand claiming her lifetime might have not been the right moment for her philosophy to be influential as people were stuck up on cold war of collectivism and capitalism, for the latter's domination to idealise it just as falsly as stalinism did it's strife for utopia. Or you have Germany's bitter decline used by cult of a person for a leap towards radical nationalism.
It get's kind of metaphysical even as there isn't one without the other where there always is something in between.
There's is no realm of theory without the material realm and vice versa. No good without bad without both being subjective, collectivism without the individual/s.
All in all a golden mean.
