The Logos is risen

In the end of the sabbath, as it began to dawn toward the first day of the week, came Mary Magdalene and the other Mary to see the sepulchre.

And, behold, there was a great earthquake: for the angel of the Lord descended from heaven, and came and rolled back the stone from the door, and sat upon it.

His countenance was like lightning, and his raiment white as snow:

And for fear of him the keepers did shake, and became as dead men.

And the angel answered and said unto the women, Fear not ye: for I know that ye seek Jesus, which was crucified.

He is not here: for he is risen, as he said. Come, see the place where the Lord lay.

And go quickly, and tell his disciples that he is risen from the dead; and, behold, he goeth before you into Galilee; there shall ye see him: lo, I have told you.

And they departed quickly from the sepulchre with fear and great joy; and did run to bring his disciples word.

And as they went to tell his disciples, behold, Jesus met them, saying, All hail. And they came and held him by the feet, and worshipped him.

Then said Jesus unto them, Be not afraid: go tell my brethren that they go into Galilee, and there shall they see me.

Now when they were going, behold, some of the watch came into the city, and shewed unto the chief priests all the things that were done.

And when they were assembled with the elders, and had taken counsel, they gave large money unto the soldiers,

Saying, Say ye, His disciples came by night, and stole him away while we slept.

And if this come to the governor’s ears, we will persuade him, and secure you.

So they took the money, and did as they were taught: and this saying is commonly reported among the Jews until this day.

Then the eleven disciples went away into Galilee, into a mountain where Jesus had appointed them.

And when they saw him, they worshipped him: but some doubted.

And Jesus came and spake unto them, saying, All power is given unto me in heaven and in earth.

Go ye therefore, and teach all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost:

Teaching them to observe all things whatsoever I have commanded you: and, lo, I am with you alway, even unto the end of the world. Amen.

Thank you, Jim and lads. This is a much better Easter than last year’s “Troon Visibility” one or whatever Brandon labeled it.

Jesus Christ is King.

Hesiod says:

https://x.com/TrumpWHUpdates/status/1913922328389394635

Under President Trump’s leadership, there will never be a “trans visibility month”; and on Easter, we will be celebrating one Man and that is Jesus Christ, our Lord and Savior.

Hesiod says:

Fox News commemorates Easter by running an article warning about the phrase “Christ is king”. To give you an idea how fake and gay it is, Nick Fuentes is the boogieman and Jordan Peterson is the sage.

Greetings again,

He has risen indeed.

Also, Humungus has reviewed the aforementioned BAP Twitter posts as discussed in the previous thread. BAP is trying to sell a book, beyond that, there is nothing obviously wrong with his content.

I Made Your Kid Get AIDS, So You Could Watch It Die / Anal Cunt

A few years ago, I snuck Freddy Mercury into your son’s room
I gave him anesthesia so he’d never remember getting raped
You spent your life savings putting your kid through college
Then he died of AIDS, so you wasted your money for nothing

I made your kid get AIDS, so you could watch it die
I made your kid get AIDS, so I could watch you cry

You thought your son was on a diet, so you didn’t worry too much
At the funeral, I told you what happened and laughed at you
I didn’t think that you suffered enough
So I shot your wife in front of you

Braces, summer camp, college, you wasted all your money
Food, clothing, trips to Disney World, you wasted all your money
Birthdays, Christmas, the tooth fairy, you wasted all your money
Lunch money, field trips, toys, you wasted all your money

Humungus says:

BAP wrote that?

Humungus disavows it, if he did.

Humungus only condones necessary and righteous violence provided it is done swiftly. Never cruelty for its own sake.

Mossadnik says:

He did not write that.

I’m driving home a certain point.

Which point is that if BAP infects your son with spiritual AIDS through metaphorical and/or literal gay grooming, you will be very sorry indeed.

Anal Cunt lyrics are quite effective at de-pozzing one’s mind.

Humungus says:

Thank you for explaining.

Humungus will have to think about your reply for a time.

Jim says:

Did he write that? Link please.

Mossadnik says:

He did not write that; see explanation above to Lord Hummus.

The Cominator says:

BAP did not write that a band literally named “Anal cunt” it was a band with hilarious song titles (that no one would make today) sometimes good lyrics (though you couldn’t hear them) and horrendous music…

Mossadnik says:

To each according to his cognitive and spiritual level, you know? Some take the Bible as their main source of inspiration; others might rather benefit from the simpler, lighter material found in Aesop’s Fables; but if all else fails, as is often the case, one may as well reference the stern and esteemed teacher, the one and only – ANAL CUNT.

Mossadnik says:

But the profoundest Wisdom of all is to be gleaned from your favorite songstress, the famously sagacious and perspicacious Serpent Priestess known as Taylor Alison Swift.

Who could fail to be edified and uplifted by such insightful, evergreen counsel?

‘Cause the players gonna play, play, play, play, play
And the haters gonna hate, hate, hate, hate, hate (Haters gonna hate)
Baby, I’m just gonna shake, shake, shake, shake, shake
I shake it off, I shake it off (Ha)
Heartbreakers gonna break, break, break, break, break (Mmm)
And the fakers gonna fake, fake, fake, fake, fake (They fake and fake and fake)
Baby, I’m just gonna shake, shake, shake, shake, shake
I shake it off, I shake it off (I, I)

Just shake it off and move on, bruh.

Interesting to note that JD Vance seems to have been the last leader to see Pope Francis alive. We shall see what comes next.

Mossadnik says:

Best timeline ever.

Big Brutha says:

I am not a Roman Catholic and so have no dog in the fight when it comes to the upcoming conclave and efforts by the cardinals to select a new standard bearer for the Roman Catholic church. However, I wonder how much of a lock the Lavender Mafia has on the institution and whether someone like a Cardinal Ratzinger, who appeared to have been sidelined under dubious circumstances, could become Pope going forward? But I will leave that to those who know a lot more about such things than I do.

Jim says:

Faggotry and demon worship is deeply embedded in the Vatican.

Roman Catholics who remain Christian are going to have to give up on a strong central Church authority — they are going to have to become sort of protestant.

They say “We have had bad Popes before” — and then point to the Popes that had mistresses. Their current popes have catamites.

Hesiod says:

Vox Day aptly observes today in his post on the pope’s death:

Perhaps only now can we truly understand the wisdom of Jesus Christ declaring that he is wherever two or three are gathered together in his name. Because it is now obvious that there is no human organization on this Earth that is immune to corruption and convergence.

Your Uncle Bob says:

…JD Vance seems to have been the last leader to see Pope Francis alive.

The memes are already glorious.

I don’t really think Vice President Vance offed the pope; he was visiting because of ill health to begin with. But is another suggestion that God has a sense of humor.

If I were to guess, I believe the honorable PC is saying that the jesuits are delusional, and in their delusion fed him poison while thinking it medicine.

Pseudo-Chrysostom says:

I would not be surprised in the least if he had actually taken the clot shot as a display of his piety to their faith. A seventy something man shuffled off his mortal coil in little more than a decades. Landstrewth!

The Cominator says:

The Jesuits didn’t stay on the Titanic and imho didn’t take the real clot shot themselves… or at least if they did had an agent that countered its effects (supposedly high amounts of nicotine taken before and after do so).

The Cominator says:

No the Jesuits are evil and to some degree crazy but as the world’s 1st intelligence agency (as opposed to ad hoc network of spies under a spymaster) they know what is poison and what is actually medicine.

Pseudo-Chrysostom says:

Recent evidence would indicate a loss of perspective. Bergoglio could live to his hundreds if he was being taken care of, especially with the benefit of fresh baby juice.

Fidelis says:

I’m getting a bad feeling about the state of Thermidor. Lots of small signals to show where the wind is blowing. In no particular order:

– DoGE news and enthusiasm died off, is ending much earlier than originally planned
– RFK Jr. is not taking on the FDA, his commitment to ending food dyes is only going to come into effect in 2027 (“end of 2026”). Imagine if it was something important instead.
– No news or activity on exposing corruption and punishing the universities.
– Blue states openly defying DJT on everything. Red states seemingly unable to prosecute the many deranged that vandalize Musk’s stuff.
– No peace deals manifesting in Ukraine, no withdraw of US resources. Instead we get war posturing with persia
– The previously scared GAE abroad are increasingly shedding their doubts
– Companies did shed DEI – they went from 2024 DEI all the way back to 2021! You will find greengrocer slogans all over, the normies are not feeling the thunder, and the push looks to have slowed to a halt.

Looks like we got a quick reprieve, but not a Cromwell. We’ll see how the deportation deal unfolds, if Hegseth actually manages any reforms of consequence, and if the DEI purge actually resumes in earnest.

Mossadnik says:

We’ll see how the deportation deal unfolds

What’s with the greasy wetbacks and all the other gangstas pouring in through your Southern border; are they being deported, and if so, is the deportation rate rapid enough? Or is the Reconquista proceeding more or less as usual?

Fidelis says:

They say the numbers coming in are down to zero. Who knows the real truth on that.

We had a few months where the illegals, particularly the very criminal illegals, were afraid to even go outside. Cities got quiet, it was quite the sight. Now they realized they’re not in any real danger at the moment, and are coming back out for spring and summer.

The current fight is over whether or not DJT has authority to deport anyone, or if any minor judge can block such things. The Supremes said on April 11th that any minor judge could block such things, but it wasn’t a major decision, more like a memo. The “Maryland man” gangbanger they sent to CECOT is also still in CECOT. Many dem senators have gone to ES to pay homage, sadly Bukele has not thrown any of them in jail and asked DJT what he wants done with them.

This is just starting. Eventually DJT is going to have to send in men with guns to arrest real high level state politicians to get anything done. Otherwise you have rule by deep state cartel fusion in most of the highly populous states. The question is if he is capable of giving such an order, of if the oligarchs will not sustain such shows of force.

That’s just the physical invasion of organized militant cartels. A very clear and obvious threat with clear and obvious cause for exercising power, with little display of exercising power. Something like gutting the parasite regulators, cutting the universities down, and reforming the military is, while clear to us, less of a popular demand and on the face looks less directly existential to the oligarchs. In fact, probably looks to them as if reform is existential. So DJT focuses domestic efforts on deporting the cartels, and otherwise looks abroad to avoid rattling the nest.

Mossadnik says:

Thanks for the detailed reply.

cutting the universities down

Seems DJT has Harvard and the rest of them in his sights, using “muh antisemitism oy vey” to defund them, hopefully as a preliminary step before actually clamping down on the prog-professoriat. Or maybe Yarvin was right, and it’s going to be four years of Nothing Ever Happens. But that’s not the worst possible outcome either – even if nothing “happens” in the coming few years, the Left appears to be falling apart and losing whatever popularity it had, while the Right has been vouchsafed more time to prepare.

Your focus should be on fostering a New Elite, a la the old NRx “become worthy, accept power, rule.” Obviously, should also do a whole bunch of other crucial things; but replacing the old elite with a new one is truly indispensable in order to seize control of the apparatuses of the regime, and then implement whatever civilization-saving ideas you will come up with.

Fidelis says:

I adressed more clearly my reason for pessimism in my response to DS, but I can address your specifics here.

The monasteries have not really been purged, just mildly chastised. The fine is inconsequential, and the antisemitism rhetoric is just telling them to behave a bit, not a serious reform. My guess is there is not enough energy and cohesion to do much more.

The problem with fostering a new elite, is that the current elite is so allergic to anything reactionary, you’re not going to get anywhere until the real collapse hits. No one is able to organize for much more than shitposting. The internet radicalizing the zoomers has been a blessing, but the zoomers have no power, and no access to power.

Of course all this could prove to be false doubt, and DJT could later today arrest the politicians flying to ES for acting in contempt and treason. I simply saw the reversal of many of the positive trends we had at the beginning of the term, and thought that fit for discussion.

Daddy Scarebucks says:

The fine is inconsequential

If you are talking about the lawsuit(s), then yes. However, the grant money and student loan funding and other federal funding being cut off is another story entirely. It is going to seriously hurt them. Not hurt enough, because nothing short of tanks in Harvard yard is going to be enough, but a lot.

Without the flow of free money, they will have to either purge DEI, or purge everything except DEI. If they purge DEI, we gain ground directly. If they purge everything except DEI, we gain ground indirectly as they shed competency, tuition money and alumni donations.

I maintain that this is the start of something big, which does not guarantee that it will end with anything big, but the mere possibility of losing ground does not justify the degree of pessimism.

Mossadnik says:

No one is able to organize for much more than shitposting. The internet radicalizing the zoomers has been a blessing, but the zoomers have no power, and no access to power.

The question is just when, if current trends continue unabated, the collapse will occur. If (and that’s a major “if”) you have at least 20 years, then whatever transpires during this current Trump Presidency, all is not lost – you are likely to eventually witness the assumption of Based Zoomer into power, and people who have grown up reading Andrew Anglin and (more to the point) Jim Donald will likely “know what to do” when power is in their hands.

Well, the blackpill is that you might not, in fact, have 20 years to wait for zoomers to take over. But who knows. Thermidor just got strated; expect many ups and downs along the way.

Fidelis says:

Looks to me like we have 10 years until the boomers are too old to manage anything. The boomers have not properly groomed successors, especially not the wicked ones currently holding the oppressive regimes together.

When they are forced to retire by nature, those in charge of wicked organizations will be replaced by the radical wicked, whom are not all that smart. During this event we shall have the great unwinding, and geopolitics gets some life breathed into it.

This is only kind of sort of in our favor. If the mess is not cleaned up before then, the demographics are such hot genocide is on the table, and the current genocidal policy is no joke either. The opportunity is that the states will find it very difficult to project power externally, and there will be more neutral states not too interested in spending state capacity oppressing you opening up. This gives you opportunity to start organizing. Have to be careful to not piss off your hosts, but it is at least opportunity where before there was none.

Mossadnik says:

If the mess is not cleaned up before then, the demographics are such hot genocide is on the table

Unfortunately, that’s probably true. Hence, Americans really have to — if not entirely fix their demography — then at least stabilize it. When the boomers are gone, much of their toxic cultural baggage will evaporate with them; but the hostile foreigners, if not kicked out, will remain, and when the proverbial hits the fan, they gon’ kill whitey. Need to deport the gangsters and institute a radical immigration ban. If the autocoup succeeds within the next few years, it might be possible that Herr Vance will be able to at least pull that off, if nothing else. But note Cominator’s valid concerns regarding a Catholic dipping in the Ganges being the right man for the job.

Fidelis says:

America is fine. Europe has a problem, especially the YewKay.

America is fine in that it was seeded by radicals, has a tradition of producing radicals, and has lots of territory that is hard to fully control. If we get hot genocide, lots of people will die, but it won’t be total. Will eventually have a Reconquista, though it will certainly be quite nasty and drawn out. In the end would probably be better off than a slow decline, it beats what happened to Rome, where the state just barely managed to hang on for centuries, long enough to finish burning off all biological capital.

Western Europe has its only hope in outside capture it looks like. Nowhere for a network of guerillas to organize and do their thing, less of a “startup culture”, so to speak. If hot genocide starts, probably succeeds like it did in all the failed colonial states. Maybe a significant portion can escape to Russia, depends on how much they continue to piss them off.

Mossadnik says:

Yes, Western Europe is probably gone for good.

An acquaintance of mine — an Ethiopian Jew — came back recently from a trip to a number of locations there. He was shocked at the shades and hues of the people he had encountered. Basically, “Where have all the white people gone?” You know the situation is really dire when a black Jew thinks that your demography has turned to s**t. Sure, outside the tourist spots, it’s probably not all that bad. But it’s very bad, and the greatest problem is that Europeans behave like total zombies; they regard all our shitposting as just a big, silly, hahaha joke. With that mentality, they are absolutely going to be holocausted.

Contaminated NEET says:

>America is fine.

Go outside and look around. America is Brazil Norte; the boomers just haven’t realized it yet. I guess Brazil is “fine” for some value of the word “fine.” It’s not Haiti. It’s not South Africa. It’s not Gaza. It’s also not the USA of 1965 and never, ever will be.

Fidelis says:

You misunderstand. I’m not saying America is going to survive as an empire or cultural beacon. I mean that there won’t be a successful total genocide, and that you will have at the very least the Scotts-Irish version of Chechens waiting out in Appalachia and Ozarkia, whom likely will keep a mythology of being the rightful heirs to the contintent. That’s far better than what I expect to come out of the British Isles, which is the Paki version of Haiti. Or out of France and the Germanic countries, which is a new Caliphate of some kind.

Brazil is also artificially constrained by race communism it need not adopt. They may find themselves in a junta and subsequent caste system, and the country becomes much more livable again. Look at all the nice properties destroyed in decolonization in the Africa Addio documentary. That’s in black Africa, much more of a demographic problem than Brazil, so Brazil can foster some nice things once again.

Mayflower Sperg says:

During a visit to southern Brazil in 2002, I noticed that every man who had a job also had a beautiful white girlfriend. Didn’t stay long enough to get one for myself, sadly.

Russia was also a lot less feminist back then, so maybe Brazilian women are all Strong and Independent now.

Beow says:

In Latin America in general it seems that every guy who has it halfway together, by beaner standards, has a cute girl. Yet their fertility is on par with Europe? Why?

Alf says:

Western Europe is probably gone for good.

Maybe some Constantine figure rises up, but for the foreseeable future, yes, absolutely. A sad situation. Western Europe gets to console itself that like how the Jews passed on the torch of civilisation to the Christians, the Europeans passed it onto the Americans and arguably even the Russians. Not that it makes its current-day state any less sad.

Mossadnik says:

But it’s not literally inevitable. With Thermidor doing the clean-up in America, you should be able to hold some real elections, proceed to have your own respective auto-coups, and then fix the demography by both kicking out the foreigners (the easier thing, for which I assume there is wide support) and reverse Feminism at least somewhat (the harder thing; I don’t realistically expect you to go full Jim in one fell swoop, but surely at least some people get it). The question is, ultimately, if your society still has that basic will-to-live. I know that being militarily and culturally occupied by Anglo-Judea has done a number on you, but if the people actually want to survive… it should be possible.

Do the people around you, who presumably don’t all lurk here and don’t autisticically trawl through Alt-Right blogs and literature in search of the Forbidden Truth, fully grasp the gravity of the situation? Being slaughtered by oogah-boogah and/or passing away in complete loneliness might not be as fun as initially appears.

Jim says:

> The question is, ultimately, if your society still has that basic will-to-live.

Societies don’t have wills. The question, ultimately, is if people who intend that their posterity, their civilisation, and their culture will survive can grab control of the society.

Essentially, rule by virtuous people versus rule by wicked people.

Leftism builds cohesion by going after the shakiest looking applecart. Which inevitably becomes self destructive — the question then becomes do they destroy everything, or just destroy the left.

Mossadnik says:

Essentially, rule by virtuous people versus rule by wicked people.

I agree, but you probably need a certain “critical mass” of virtuous people; indeed, the issue is not what the regular normie zombie down the street thinks, but whether or not you have enough non-zombies to build the virtuous elite. But public support does help, so I wonder how “far gone” the public is, and if the ratio of virtuous vs. wicked in Western Europe can really allow for a Restoration.

In Latin America in general it seems that every guy who has it halfway together, by beaner standards, has a cute girl. Yet their fertility is on par with Europe? Why?

The collapse in fertility long precedes the inceldom epidemic in its current, full blown manifestation. The former phenomenon is dependent on factors such as the state religion and the legality (or illegality) of owning your family. The latter phenomenon is far more influenced by the popular-cultural elevation of female status relative to male status; the beaners by nature are not nearly as prone to being cucked white-knights simps as the Europeans, and are presumably more willing to whip misbehaving cunts. So, can’t have a stable and fecund family, but at least have it easier getting a CUTE GF.

Alf says:

It’s not all depressing. I can give an assessment based on the state of the oppositional elite in the Netherlands.

There’s two parties: Geert Wilders and Thierry Baudet. Both are doing pretty well in their own way, although it must be noted that neither is explicitly Christian.

Baudet is the more based of the two. Believes some dumb stuff like that the moonlanding is fake, but also understands that much of modern day democracy is fake and gay. He has dropped off in the polls, but much to his credit, understands that votes are not everything. For instance, he attributes the success of the left to them taking over cultural institutions such as education, and is trying to counter this by setting up his own schools.

Wilders is currently running the biggest party of the Netherlands. You’d think that would mean he were minister-president, but no, of course not, he was denied because right-wing. But, also to his credit, he has very impressively swallowed his ego, manouvred the political landscape and is now effectively a shadow minister-president, which, neutered as the position is, still impressive. The official minister-president is an ex-director of dutch secret service, which sounds very depressing until you see the guy and realize it’s the Evan McMullin thing all over again.

The biggest problem is that no one knows where to go next. Honestly, I include myself in that category. Restore throne, altar, freehold, sure, but how? Are we restoring European monarchies? Have you seen the state of the monarchies? I like our king as much as the next guy, but really, any less testosterone and he’d have manboobs. Historically, the way to solve weak dynasties was conquest by another dynasty, but who is going to pull that off? Perhaps one could marry themselves into the dynasty (Dutch king has three daughters), but it seems very unlikely for all the conditions to make such a situation feasible to be met. Not to mention the whole European crabs in a bucket thing — if one nation state will break reactionary, others will inevitably try pull it back.

Jim says:

We have a state religion that destroys fertility and de-industrialises the economy — which eventually leads to ever escalating deficits. Which can be sustained for a long time, but will eventually result in collapse. And I am pretty sure the state religion is headed from slow genocide to hot genocide.

So you are going to get Thermidor, or complete collapse. Either way, you can go from there. Thermidor can hold power for a long time, in which case the state religion dies, or can collapse left or right. In collapse, or Thermidor, you have the opportunity to replace the state religion — tanks in Harvard.

Mossadnik says:

While I consider Monarchism to be the best system of government, I don’t advocate it as a panacea to all social ills. (I reserve that, of course, to ketamine.) Moldbug used to do it, probably still does, because he wants a Blue-Tribe King, being a vehement Blue-Tribe SUPREMACIST. I much, much rather prefer the oy-vey oy-gevald muh waycissssss rednecks to rule over America, and given that extraterrestrials don’t exist, the entire universe. Point is, Jim is right (and Moldbug wrong) – it’s less about your system of government, and more about who actually rules.

So really, the question is how many non-pozzed, non-shitlib, non-GAY people you have who can form a New Elite. We over here in Kikeland have a similar problem of lacking a virtuous elite to replace our current eBul prog-khazar overlords; but we do have the rudimentary beginnings of a New Elite, found among those defined as “Religious Zionists.” But we’ll see about them. So really, who’s going to be your new ruling class? Do you have a replacement elite? I probably shouldn’t ask that, since quite obviously you don’t (but do correct me if I’m wrong); so I guess you either somehow have a certain, totally inadequate “revival,” so to speak, under Islam; or the Americans and the Russians pull their s**t together and finally un-pozz the entire European continent, which might very much require tanks in the streets.

It is depressing.

Jim says:

> So really, who’s going to be your new ruling class? Do you have a replacement elite?

A virtuous ruling class exists because a King, or a series of Kings, creates it. Takes a while. Usually one king institutionalises a state religion to create it, and this continues to function and produce results under his successors. Putin seems to be walking this path, hence the greater functionality of government institutions — for example his health system is similar to that of catastrophically disastrous health systems in the west, but is not catastrophically disastrous.

Mossadnik says:

The actually important questions are, then:

1. Who is going to be your new ruling class, and how will you go about replacing the current faggo-feminists with this new ruling class? Obviously, if at least your fertility were healthy, you could look to (and foster, such by shitposting on the internet) future generations to get it together while waiting for the gerontocracy to croak. But the whole point is that your fertility has plummeted to Hades; that is the crucial problem that you should fix.

2. What your religion is going to be. Obviously, if the Muslims convert you to Islam, then consider the issue moot – your grandchildren will be Muslims, which (ironically coming from a frothing zio-shill) is not the Worst Thing Ever. But c’mon, we want classical Europe, not yet another Caliphate but with more WYPIPO in it. Okay, so, Christianity – problem again is, most of Christianity is now a gay, demonic skinsuit worn by gay demons; so what you really need is un-cucked Americans and un-cucked Russians to take over and fix your Christianity. So anyone who countersignals the Christian Awakening is undermining your very survival as a civilization.

These are the fundamental topics, in my view; Yarvinism won’t help you, since (with all due respect to his manifold, valuable contributions), he doesn’t talk about the actually important things.

Mossadnik says:

I guess we really just have to:

1. Make sure that there is peace with Russia, and I don’t care about the Europeans’ kvetching – in particular, I’ll support a Russian annexation of Britain, since the Brits most especially have gone overboard with their Russophobia, and it’s only fair that the Kingdom will be run from the Kremlin. If this idea triggers anyone, that person is probably not very serious about RESTORATION.

2. Focus all “counter-cultural” efforts on un-pozzing America, since all countries are really America, and then making sure that just as right now there is a Globohomo, after America becomes Christian again, the American-dominated Global Empire will follow it and become Christian too. But because the European elites might try tyrannically opposing that, and the local population is a bunch of frail dejected oldtroons unwilling and unable to RESIST, it might necessitate a renewed American military occupation of Europe, physically removing your treasonous elites and their sundry shitskin foot soldiers. Hence, tanks in the streets.

It’s a lot of hard work, but peace with Russia is on the horizon, and the Christian Awakening too; so it’s not impossible.

Mossadnik says:

Hegseth, you’re a regular Jim’s blog lurker, so first of all, let me tell you that we in the Holy Land love you very much.

But also – you should not prioritize the Middle East. I get that you’re excited about holy war with the Muslims, and as a SUBVERSIVE zio shill I myself like that idea too; but objectively speaking, saving Europe from its treasonous elites and the niggity-noggity durka-derka replacements they’re importing is far more civilizationally crucial. Forget killing Muslims in the desert; we’ll do it gladly instead. Rather, think about the big thing – defeating the treasonous elites of Europe before there is no European civilization left to save there. And hey! You’ll get to kill lots and lots and lots of Muslims there, too, so you still get to fulfill your aspirations, just in a different location. Let us take over the Middle East according to our interpretation of Biblical prophesies; and as to you, imagine landing your militaries in Europe to at long last LIBERATE the local population from the faggo-feminist tyrants. Isn’t that a much better idea?

Mossadnik says:

One can argue that I have it backwards; that given the racial-cultural affinity between America and Britain, the former should annex the latter, while the European Continent goes to Russia. Or any other settlement. The important thing is that ya’ll return to JESUS CHRIST and then proceed to liberate Europe from whatever illegitimate regime will be left there unwilling to become Christian; which alas might be most of them. The treasonous elites won’t give up their power and control so easily and “democratically,” and since I do want to save Western Europe, I say that the Americans and the Russians should indeed prepare to designate many, likely most European regimes as ENEMY regimes and plan to defeat them by any means necessary and install (real) Christianity there as the state religion, restore patriarchy, poofs off roofs, and all that. I’ve come to the conclusion that the Europeans are unlikely to save themselves; they need outside help.

Vance, Hegseth, all you political staffers out there who get your ideas from this Israeli incel troll – you should fix your eyes on Europe, and start shilling the idea of militarily (if that’s necessary; and it likely will be necessary) defeating these hostile faggo-feminist European regimes to liberate the indigenous population therefrom. The Middle East can wait; and you should probably just let us annex Jordan and Iraq and build the THIRD TEMPLE while you save your own original high Aryan civilization, which is currently rapidly collapsing due to an abysmal birth rate and the population replacement project of replacing civilized white people with cannibals who just yesterday had piercings made of human bones – boogah.

Mossadnik says:

If this “designate European regimes as enemies” sounds kooky to you, then reflect on the reality of Europe becoming black, brown, and Islamic, with significant Hindoo and African populations – this will be the reality unless something radical is done about it.

Now, it might be possible to skip the “LITERAL WAR” part when it comes to those countries that are already culturally affiliated with Christianity, where the population is still mostly homogeneous, where you still have some young people around, and where “democracy” has not yet become a complete, utter joke. But much of Europe is now on its death bed — the wicked elites keep on destroying their respective countries and importing infinity militariy age black and brown males screaming for infidel blood and white pussy — and as I expected, the Europeans have absolutely no idea what to do about it. But Based ‘Muricans who read reactionary blogs might, in fact, have some ideas about what to do about it – and more importantly, the means to carry out those ideas. Granted, in the internet age, should be possible to memetically capture some of the younger generation in Europe; but as long as the wicked, treasonous gerontocrats are entrenched in power, not much is going to change; and by the time they finally depart, there might not be any realistic way to save anything.

Recall Karl Marx (heh) saying, “The point, however, is to change it.” Well, changing or rather redirecting the course of history will require the replacement of the wicked elites of Europe with virtuous elites, and the replacement of Progressivism (including, that is, Progressive “Christianity”) with real Christianity. Can this be achieved entirely peacefully? Possibly, but unlikely. Then again, it’s not like the hostile regimes will have any effective, competent militaries; it’s now mostly a collection of manjaws, manginas, poofs, and troons, plus shitskins and mystery-meats of every shade and hue. They’ll be crushed.

So, if you don’t want a brown or mostly brown Muslim Europe (and again, that’s not the worst thing ever; but why give up on your civilization without a fight?), need unpozzed Americans and Russians to go in and un-cuck all of those countries. Come the Restoration, this should be the priority in terms of military objectives and cultural influence, rather than conquering the Global South or some such.

Mossadnik says:

Of course, without solving the WQ, none of that will matter all that much – just that instead of dying very brown, you will die very white. But you’ll still be dead. There is no alternative to the restoration of families and monogamous, patriarchal marriage. This requires a dramatic cultural shift; but with the right faith — a faith conducive to healthy social technologies, and that inspires its adherents to preserve them — that is achievable. Thus the Christian Awakening in America should proceed to capture the hearts and minds of young Europeans, who have access to the internet and are literate in English. Really, if America actually un-pozzes and makes basedness high-status, the rest of the world will want to follow it. But need to remove the wicked elites that will be rather reluctant to follow it.

Mossadnik says:

A virtuous ruling class exists because a King, or a series of Kings, creates it. Takes a while. Usually one king institutionalises a state religion to create it, and this continues to function and produce results under his successors.

In the European context, I have little expectation that their current Kings, or any political leader informally serving a kingly function, will be able to pull that off. Perhaps if the yoke of Globohomo is lifted off their necks, but even then I’m not sure.

So the King might have to be an outsider, or indeed, if Europe is to be partitioned into different influence zones between America and Russia, there will be at least two Kings and at least two state religions, presumably Based Protestantism for those under American influence, and Based Orthodoxy for those under Russian influence.

Or maybe the American and the Russian Kings will nominate some local leaders in Europe as their vassals, in which case all is not lost even for the Catholics, albeit they will have to do some heavy theological lifting to become Based.

Neurotoxin says:

“it’s less about your system of government, and more about who actually rules.”

One aspect of my political reconfiguration over the last five or ten years has been the realization that personnel is policy. That old dream of a government of laws, not of men, turns out to be just another chimera. It’s too bad, because it would be nice. But no.

So “a government of laws, not of men” goes on the scrap heap (too vulnerable to entryism/infiltration by the wicked), along with democracy (too vulnerable to electoral fraud, etc.), classical liberalism (too vulnerable to one-sided warfare from hostile religions), the notion that women can be attracted to overtly decent men (too vulnerable to…Darwin). A world model that takes everything we’re taught when we’re young and puts a minus sign in front of it is literally a better approximation to reality than what we’re taught.

“What your religion is going to be. Obviously, if the Muslims convert you to Islam, then consider the issue moot – your grandchildren will be Muslims…”

Never happen. As many have pointed out, Islam is an opportunistic infection in the current western world. It only gets any traction because traitors within our walls open the gates and hold them open. There are a lot of ways the current situation could end, but a triumphant Islam in the US is not one of them.

(I’m pretty sure I’m right about this, but then I’m also the guy who was pretty sure that electoral fraud was decentralized, lol, so take that for what it’s worth.)

Mossadnik says:

100%.

There are a lot of ways the current situation could end, but a triumphant Islam in the US is not one of them.

My comments — or at least this particular comment — were primarily addressed to Alf (who is from the Netherlands) and in view of the European situation more broadly, so the point about Islam only applies in that context; I absolutely agree that it’s not relevant to the US.

Alf says:

Political Islam, at least in the Netherlands, is impressively converged by the left, to the point where the leader of what is supposed to be the Islamic party is a half Dutch half Turkish agnostic with a background in sociology and leftist politics.

Contaminated NEET says:

>Political Islam, at least in the Netherlands, is impressively converged by the left

That’s a shame. Islam sucks, but it’s better than Leftism. You can live a halfway decent life under its time-tested precepts. Leftism is death.

Mossadnik says:

The Left will disappear much sooner than Islam, and taking demographic trends (which is all that matters, ultimately) into account, the Europeans may yet biologically survive, albeit obviously much adulterated, if their grandchildren are converted.

At the end of the day, you either become much more like the Muslims, or you will become a Muslim. This blog advocates the former thing, and calls the latter scenario “the solution we do not want” – but it is a solution nonetheless. Islam does look very much like humanity’s “default religion,” in that it’s about the most “cut the crap” faith of them all: no complicated theology, no complicated practices, can be easily observed regardless of IQ or civilizational level.

Problem is, while Christianity advances science and technology (since, properly understood, it is centered on John’s Logos), Islam generally does not; I highly doubt you will “fill the stars and subdue them” under its banner. Well, it is technically possible, just not all that likely.

Daddy Scarebucks says:

Once or twice a year I have to clear away all the dead branches, weeds, brush and other detritus that scatters itself around my very modestly-sized property, put it all into one big pile and burn it. The gathering takes several hours, the bonfire is nearly impossible to start without chemical fuel, and the fire takes an hour or two to burn fully, and needs to be constantly tended.

In other words, when the raw material is not only large but growing very aggressively, even burning it all down is not a quick fix; at least not if you want a controlled burn and intend to keep any part of the ecosystem alive. It takes work, and it takes energy.

You say we’ve gone back from 2024 to 2021. Okay, but let’s reflect on that. We had reached a point where everyone thought the cancerous growth was so far out of control that it was impossible to stop, being sucked in the left-singularity, drifting rudderless into WW3 as Jim would say. To have been able to not only freeze this, but actually reverse it, must be requiring enormous amounts of energy. Rolling back 3 years in only 3 months is actually a pretty big deal; imagine what could be accomplished in 48 months by simply keeping up the pace.

It might not feel like a lot, but they are trying to cut down an entire forest, and while they cut down one ten-acre area here, another ten-acre area there is sprouting up again. The Cathedral’s root system is incomprehensibly huge, its branches and tendrils reaching nearly everywhere, as we found out from USAID analysis. So yes, as the deadwood (and uh… live wood) gets cleared, we are going to see more weeds and wild trees sprouting up elsewhere that have to be put down again. And again and again and again. The judiciary is trying to consolidate power again, the media is trying to consolidate power again, etc.

300 years of unconstrained growth are not going to be undone in 3 months, no matter how efficiently the process is run. Most of us assumed from the get-go that Trump was not going to be the one to do it all, and that at best his current role is clearing enough of the field so that a successor like Vance can get the real job done. There’s no point in doing the Dissident Right Tango this early; progress can only be meaningfully measured over a period of months or years, and one bad week or even one bad month doesn’t mean very much in that context.

We have said what needs to be done, and I think they understand what needs to be done. Whether or not they can pull it off remains to be seen, but all we can really do right now is try to enjoy the ride.

Fidelis says:

The pessimism lies in the observation that the shock and awe campaign died quite quickly, we’re not even to summer yet. The one obviously working part of the federal coup has apparently been terminated, possibly due to Elon constantly sperging. He continued to get into public fights with the administration over immigration, trade policy, etc. Who knows what toes he stepped on off-stage.

The very important DEI purge has ground to an effective halt. Turns out reactionaries are both thin on the ground and, wisely in retrospect, reluctant to fly their flag and deputize themselves in order to carry out the plan. No one knew what DEI was, so no one could carry out the white terror. I have acquaintances working in businesses closely tied to the feds, incorporated in a deeply red state, and they continue to have extremely disruptive DEI coworkers being disruptive unchecked.

To use your brush clearing analogy: they wandered about the woods, couldn’t tell what was rot, what was brush, what was weed, grasped about at one or two plants they could identify, but their fingers got tired before reaching the root. Thankfully they identified a particularly invasive latin bramble and are currently looking for some shears to start cutting at it.

We are protected for now by DJT, but the succession plan is not looking good. I don’t trust JDV, he has not been tested. Oration is not governance, and he comes from a suspect background. If something happens to DJT, and we get JDV, I’m not confident we can avoid WW3. I’m not confident we can avoid WW3 today, but at least we have a genuinely peace-loving world class negotiator at the helm.

The situation is looking mighty grim. I was optimistic at the term start, when DJT was reliably getting action done. Now, action looks less reliable, and the enemy has begun reorganizing in earnest. I am not confident we can avoid simultaneous external and internal war, as the empire goes through death convulsions.

Mossadnik says:

If the reports are true that Vance convinced Trump to earnestly enter negotiations with Iran, then he is clearly in the “isolationist” camp, and is in fact the leader thereof; thus he would be even less inclined to look for questionable military adventures than Trump. I also strongly suspect that he is not the greatest fan of the illegitimate Judeo-Nazi Azov Regime, and would have no problem metaphorically or literally woodchippering Zelensky. He is clearly positioning himself as the anti-war successor of Trump. Whether any of that can be truly counted on in the moment of truth is another story; politicians in a demotist era are snakes, generally speaking.

Alf says:

He is impressively consistent in saying the right things, which does count for something. Compare to Vivek, who tried his utmost best to say the right things, but failed still.

Mossadnik says:

Ganges jokes aside, and whatever else might be said about him, JD Vance is a real American. In contrast, Vivek the Swami of Rama is not, and is bio-culturally unassimilable; while I’m probably much more fond of the Hindus than Cominator, my position is that most of the ones in America should go back, just as the Jews should make aliyah. People are used to treating America like a bazaar; but for men like Vance, it is their one and only homeland; whatever legacy he leaves for future generations will be inextricably tied thereto.

Mossadnik says:

Well, this is a Christian thread, so let’s all praise the Lord:

Jaya Jaya,
Jesu Cristaya

The Cominator says:

Everything about Vance’s background is suspect (Nevertrumper at one point, sponsored into ivy league, married jeetess and as I said I would honestly rather his wife would be any other race besides jeettess including black, and he converted from patriotic low church protestantism the religion of his fathers to globohomo roman catholicism) but everything about his behavior so far has been solid. So yes hard to trust but he hasn’t done anything to earn any distrust yet at least as far as his politics goes.

Daddy Scarebucks says:

…the shock and awe campaign died quite quickly

Well, obviously. Shock and awe is an opening move. If shock and awe means bombing a disorganized mass of barely bronze-age pederastic goat herders back to the stone age, then maybe a single blitz can bring about a decisive victory. If the enemy is well-defended, firmly entrenched, and on par with your own technological capability and logistical capacity, as for example is the case with Russia and the Ukraine, then no matter how well you plan and how effective the opening salvos are, it is going to turn into a war of attrition.

And just as Russia has been grinding down occupied Ukraine, Trump and Vance and Hegseth and the Doge guys and the people they are leading can find a way to grind down occupied America, if they have the will and the competence. Our war of attrition is a lot less kinetic, and we should probably hope it stays that way, but it is the same principle.

The one obviously working part of the federal coup has apparently been terminated, possibly due to Elon constantly sperging.

Sounds like spin to me, somewhere between outright falsehood and major exaggeration. Always consider the source. Just because the media isn’t talking about things like eliminating the Department of Education or pulling military aid from Ukraine, doesn’t mean it isn’t happening; and just because they make up stupid stories about discord within the administration, doesn’t mean it has any basis in reality.

…Thankfully they identified a particularly invasive latin bramble and are currently looking for some shears to start cutting at it.

And so it will take time to remove, and maybe they have to drop everything else while they address the infestation. You can’t always measure this on the scale of days or weeks.

The situation is looking mighty grim. I was optimistic at the term start, when DJT was reliably getting action done. Now, action looks less reliable, and the enemy has begun reorganizing in earnest.

This was always going to be the case. If you were optimistic before, there is no reason to stop being optimistic on account of the fact that what was 100% guaranteed to happen did in fact happen. The element of surprise is gone, opening salvos fired, some fairly significant gains made, but the war is far from over. Actual outcome equals expected outcome.

That’s the trouble with war: the other side always gets a say.

Fidelis says:

As the honorable PC stated, after landing a punch on your opponent, you keep swinging. The shock and awe campaign died out for indiscernible reasons, not because there was an obvious reason to stop. That there was no obvious and clear reason to stop, and yet there was clear and obvious relent in both rhetoric and action, signals something is wrong. Either lack of will, or lack of way.

The original plan for DoGE was a run continuing into 2026, and mysteriously Elon is leaving early, and the scope of the project severely curtailed. Musk also very publicly, he himself making it public, had several hissy fit disputes about government policy. I have no doubt he stepped on the wrong toes, and he himself got offended at the lack of absolute power he is accustomed to in his own compamies.

The massive infestation of cartels is such that slow removal is apt to be counterproductive. They will learn, adapt, and ally. What needs to happen, and thankfully what seems to be happening, is indiscriminate arrest and deportation of anyone slightly associated. Particularly if they are spotted wearing gang signs. The problem is this painfully slow rate is going to get ever so painfully slower, and ever more dangerous, if more serious action is not taken soon. The blue states are going to ally and use them in a substitute patron client relationship, to replace the lack of federal graft and rivers of meat.

I was not optimistic until the first month, when they immediately launched an all out war. Now, the war has been launched, but they have mysteriously stopped. There is no open and apparent reason for the stop, which is greatly worrying. Is it a lack of will?

Daddy Scarebucks says:

Fisticuffs are a really bad analogy for group warfare; strategy and tactics change drastically when the enemy is not presenting a single obvious target.

But even in a boxing match, you have to slow down and catch your breath when your opponent gets his guard back up. Unless you can be sure you have vastly more stamina than he does, there is no point to “keep swinging” unless you want to gas yourself out.

You say there was no obvious reason to stop. I say there was no obvious reason it could have gone on indefinitely. Shock and awe ceases to be effective when the enemy is no longer in shock and in awe. It stopped because it had to stop, because it could only go on for as long as the regime was caught by surprise. Trump/Musk/DOGE were attempting to gain a foothold, and maybe they succeeded, maybe did not entirely succeed, but in any case the foothold is just the beginning of the campaign, especially when you are up against a far more numerous and entrenched force.

We don’t have a vast army with which to smash theirs after the front line is broken. We simply lack the infrastructure and the raw numbers. We have a small tactical group whose job it was to stealthily slip past the frontline defenses and start eliminating key players and disabling key infrastructure. Which they did, and are still doing, but is hard to do with constant velocity. There are going to be peaks and valleys.

I think you’re just craving exciting daily headlines and bummed that they’re not forthcoming. And this is why I never read the headlines, for the same reason I don’t check stock prices every day: it’s addictive, incorporates too much random noise, and apt to give you a false picture of volatility and long-term trends.

What I see is that the executive orders are still coming but the regime bureaucrats and regime media have more or less collected their wits and decided to focus on specific issues instead of chasing after every string dangled in front of them. Which looks a lot like no news, but is just a change in the official narrative.

If there’s no further progress after a month or two then I will believe things have stalled out. A couple of weeks is too short a timeline on which to judge.

Jim says:

From time to time I watch Trump’s executive orders. The thunderbolts are still coming. We just had several executive orders of the form “enforce law X against Y” The coercive power of the state is coming down on leftists.

Neurotoxin says:

To fret that the offensive has slowed – if it has – misses the point. It’s like fretting that a minute after the nuke was detonated over Hiroshima, it was not still detonating.

For example: In going after USAID, the Trump Admin seriously damaged the left’s funding. Now that that target has been destroyed, we can’t keep destroying it.

The analogy that we’ve gone from 2024 to 2021 gets the basic perspective wrong. The point is not that we’ve reset from Year Y to Year X. The point is the direction of movement. Everything has changed.

Kevin C. says:

For example: In going after USAID, the Trump Admin seriously damaged the left’s funding.

Except I’m seeing people dispute this; specifically, arguing that the shrieking on the left about these cuts is almost entirely performative, and that most of the funds and lefty patronage that was going through USAID is still going out, just through alternate, less direct, better-hidden routes. Some argue further that this — making lefty patronage less visible to outsiders — was the whole intent of going after USAID to begin with.

On one hand, I don’t see much evidence supporting these people’s contentions (and when pushed for some, they mostly fall back on “of course (((they))) have hidden alternate ways of moving shekels around wherever they want”), but given the left’s tendency to such performative shrieking, I don’t see how to rule it out offhand. Is there solid evidence that the funding has actually been damaged significantly, beyond just lefties crying about it?

Jim says:

> Is there solid evidence that the funding has actually been damaged significantly, beyond just lefties crying about it?

The coup against USAID led to massive Hollywood and Video Game company shutdowns. That is significant damage.

I saw an abrupt disappearance in many classes of shills. But not other classes of shills. The coup at USAID resulted in numerous shilling operations here and in many other places shutting down overnight. The noises coming from Mozilla I interpret as saying they are still running their shilling operations against the open source movement, but expect to run out of money very soon unless rescued. Might be performative noise to solicit money from the rest of the left, but that shilling has quieted substantially would indicate that their fear that their remaining shilling operations will have to be substantially reduced is indicative that their concerns are real.

Jim says:

> shrieking on the left about these cuts is almost entirely performative

I am pretty sure that the outrage from the Electronic Frontier Foundation is not performative. Those guys are absolutely outraged, horrified, and terrified. If you allow people to talk about the Hunter Biden laptop or the Covid jab, it is the holocaust all over again. If they don’t get their government funding, it is Nazi Hitler Hitler Hitler Hitler fascist genocide. They are suffering a mental breakdown.

The EFF is turning into the guys you see on street corners screaming at invisible demons. Their world has come crashing down on them. They might have to learn to code. These are guys who got cushy jobs in the priesthood, are looking at unemployment, and have absolutely no idea how they can survive.

The Mozilla foundation thinks the old normal will continue, but is sweating that it will not. The Electronic Frontier Foundation is melting down because they are experiencing the old normal ending. Seeing freedom of speech in action, and then their jobs going away on top of that, has driven them mad.

Jim says:

> The point is the direction of movement. Everything has changed.

Remember how much we enjoyed the fans of Hillary melting down.

I am seeing Europe melt down over the possibility that the Ukraine might become actually democratic, and the Electronic Frontier Foundation melt down over freedom of speech. The Electronic Frontier Foundation is driven mad by their defeat, and Europe is shaking in their boots over the likelihood of defeat. Will Europe actually be defeated? We don’t know yet, but they can see it on the table.

The arc of history has, after two centuries, stopped bending towards “justice”.

The Electronic Frontier Foundation refrained from revealing that they were devastated by freedom of speech. But now that they see their jobs threatened, suddenly everything is hanging out.

Neurotoxin says:

In addition to what Jim said, another example, of many, is left’s sudden inability to call up rent-a-mobs at will. Thus the hilarious video of Chuck Schumer being forced to do his own “protest” a few weeks ago. The left has made some adjustments to that, but they’re not back to where they were.

– – – – – – – – – – – – – –
The Electronic Frontier Foundation was something I’d not heard about. Am going to look into it.

Neurotoxin says:

The only relevant thing I can find about the EFF is that they had the sadz that the federal government, in the form of DOGE, was allowed to access federal government files (Heavens!) and was one of the plaintiffs in a lawsuit to stop it. But you (Jim) seem to be talking about other things?

Jim says:

Cyber security is under attack, the EFF tells us.

Chris Krebs, the Biden Czar for silencing free speech, has lost his security clearance because Trump thinks that he or his staff is leaking. And the EFF went bananas. I am entertained that they chose this hill to die on. From this I infer that freedom of speech and loss of funding has driven them mad, because choosing this hill exposes all their past positions. Their previous positions were somewhat deniable, but choosing this hill exposes those denials.

As head of the Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency, Krebs orchestrated government pressure on media platforms that told the truth about e.g. Hunter Biden’s laptop. The EFF is freaking about Krebs, whose job was to attack freedom of speech, being denied access to classified information. They refer to his not having access to government secrets as Trump “attacking” and “targeting” him. So yeah, what a revealing hill for EFF to die on.

Kevin C. says:

Yeah, pretty much every online space I frequent that had been somewhat pro-Trump — except here — has gone utterly to despair. That between DOGE being “scattershot” and “unable to sort the good from the bad”, Musk sperging out repeatedly, and the whole tariff mess, all that Trump has accomplished is proving that he “is “erratic”, “stupid”, “illiterate”, and a “retard””; demonstrating that nobody in this administration knows how to do anything; making the entire right-wing look like utter retards, not just in America but globally (c.f. Carl Benjamin and the Lotus Eaters); establishing that MAGA is nothing but a brain-dead cult whose members “are all deep-throating cock-slobberes who deserve to l[o]se everything”; and ensuring that not only will the 2026 midterms see massive Dem wins in Congress (after which they impeach Trump, Vance, etc.), but they will “usher in a new age of Democratic party rule” for decades to come.

(I’m a pessimistic depressive, and even I’m finding the reactions all a bit too much sometimes. Well, at least it has me spending less time online.)

Mossadnik says:

Jim is fighting tooth and nail against brigades of shills; presumably, those online spaces are teeming with demoralizers whose express mission is to sow just that type of sentiment, and to convey by means of the good ol’ astroturf-campaign the impression that “everyone knows and everyone agrees” that the Orange Man is absolutely, outrageously Bad.

Perhaps you should inquire of those professional demoralizers about their views regarding the disturbingly precocious libidos of 8-year-old girls who have experienced adrenarche.

Kevin C. says:

Perhaps you should inquire of those professional demoralizers about their views regarding the disturbingly precocious libidos of 8-year-old girls who have experienced adrenarche.

These are spaces wherein, if I did this:

1. Everyone would piously and vehemently assert that no such “precocious libidos” ever exist — that no young girl would ever act in such a way, except perhaps as a product of “grooming” and molestation.
2. Everyone would call me a pedo for so much as implying that they do.
3. I would be instantly perma-banned.

Mossadnik says:

Of course, that was a joke; you can’t administer any “shill tests” (about this topic, or about any other) on a platform which you do not control. The point being that those people have scripts to push; and moreover, if those are normie-friendly or normie-adjacents spaces, obviously bringing up certain subjects — certain thoughtcrimes — will not elicit any fruitful discussion. But that just buttresses my point: if you don’t go out of your way to eliminate the shills, as is done here, you simply cannot have any real discussion; everything is drowned out by hysterical shrieking of this or that variety, and the viewer gets a false impression, the impression deliberately created by false consensus (and virtue-signaling groupthink), of what people actually believe.

The upshot here is: never buy into the false consensus.

Mossadnik says:

Think about it this way: do the consensuses you see online, on all of those platforms, match anything you encounter in real life? At least in my experience, actual people are far more heterogeneous in their beliefs (and usually more open-minded) than what such and such platform would have you believe. It is often said that people on the internet are more radical than in reality; often that is true, but they are only more radical in ways approved by the group maintaining the discourse. Where the online group (often, indeed, due to shill-instigated false consensus) does not approve the voicing of a certain opinion, that opinion will not be voiced, even if people do actually believe in it.

It’s all fake, basically.

Think about it this way: do the consensuses you see online, on all of those platforms, match anything you encounter in real life?

Actually, yes. Because around here, it seems like mostly “I just want to grill” normiecons. The sort who rush to support Colin Powell, or Ben Carson, or whoever the newest black Republican is, in the firm faith that electing them will prove once and for all that Dems Are The Real Racists. Who voted for Trump in 2016, but not 2020 or 2024 because “you can’t vote for a convicted felon.” Who are all-in on the vital importance of women’s college athletics. Who’ve reconciled themselves to Obergefell, and can even argue that it’s un-Christian to not bake the cake.

(That, and a tiny handful of the “seen Kyle?” sort, but I figure at least a couple of them are Feds.)

Mossadnik says:

Hmmm. You seem to be describing a distinctly, stereotypically boomer environment. Please reassure me that these are boomers (or at least genXers whose scalps have seen Saint Norwood from up close) and that younger Americans are not really like that… oy vey indeed if the young generations tread the same ideological path.

Mossadnik says:

Then again, perhaps I shouldn’t be all that surprised. I see that the Jews in America, despite all the recent high profile shitlords with ablated frenulums (or khazar milkers, in the female case) to come out of the woodwork, are still overwhelmingly leftist. Auschwitz can’t be re-opened soon enough.

As Moon Man might say,

“Jew pizza fills me with such delight – Especially when they put up a fight!
That gives the pizza a bit more zest,
And having an opportunity to digest:
A great vibe! Then kick back and rest.
The KKK lifestyle is truly the best.”

Jim says:

In such a space, you can be entirely confident that the “consensus” is disinfo. Whatever shills tell you, it is intended to deceive. Usually by putting a false frame on something that is true, or projecting leftist forms of organisation and activity onto the right.

You know you are being lied to, and the only useful information you can glean is the purpose of the lie. What the enemy is up to.

Well, what the enemy is up to is projecting that the left can continue to move ever leftwards — the eighty twenty Democratic party strategy. Supposedly Trump is falling, falling, falling, he has fallen.

Leftism’s current programs are mass illegal immigration, mass illegal voting, normalising transexuality, de-industrialisation, war in the Ukraine, the destruction of Russia, gay marriage, mass vaccination with mystery substances of unknown effect, elimination of animal products from foods, and child protective services (which makes biological families illegal, except for the widespread application of unprincipled exceptions).

Mass illegal immigration is currently being contested, but deportations are alarmingly weak. The Trump administration has taken numerous measures to gear up for mass deportation. Probably will need to Jackson the courts if they are serious about succeeding, but they are trying to do it without Jacksoning the courts, which worries me.

De-industrialisation is being dramatically and effectively rolled back, this being a key issue for all of Thermidor.

Normalising transexuality has been rolled back to some small degree with sexual mutilation of minors being mildly restrained, and men being evicted from women’s sports, but it still a thought crime to notice that trannies and gays are disgusting, and that even trannies and gays find trannies and gays disgusting. In this sense, normalisation of transexuality is still going strong. On the other hand Government funding for normalisation of trannyism has been rolled back, and this is having major impact with video game companies going bust or holding mass layoffs. When USAID was shut down, Hollywood and the video game industry had a come to Jesus moment.

War in the Ukraine and the destruction of Russia? We are about to see. Some in Thermidor want a frozen conflict, some want peace. Trump is splitting the difference with recognition of Crimea, and a frozen conflict with the freeze conditional on a process likely to lead to peace. Much terrified screaming has ensued from Europe about that conditionality. They are terrified of the possibility of genuinely democratic elections in the Ukraine, which they say amounts to the Russian conquest and subjugation of the Ukraine. If the Trump administration turns off intel and starlink, then the peace faction has won. If the war continues as normal, the left has won. But to judge by the terror and outrage coming from Europe, Trump is pushing seriously hard.

The Trump administration has been making noises about mass illegal voting, but has as yet taken no concrete actions. This is reasonable. It should be preparing a pile of thunderbolts in secret to strike shortly before the mid terms. Whether it is doing this we will not know until shortly before the mid terms.

RFK Junior is promising proper scientific inquiry into the mystery materials that children are being injected with, but Pam Bondi promised release of the Epstein files, and they still have not been released.

No one in the Trump administration seems to have noticed that Child Protective services is a vicious criminal organisation, and that if all the regulations on child rearing were actually enforced, biological families would be impossible. Nor have they noticed that foster families created by Child Protective Services get the full benefit of the unprincipled exceptions, have to get the full benefit, or Child Protective Services would have nowhere to stash the children it abducts.

That is Thermidor.

Noticing that gays and trannies are disgusting, and that they themselves find gays and trannies disgusting, is still a thought crime.

The game “Marathon” is being released with all playable characters grossly disgusting trannies, and every you tube commenter is tiptoeing around the elephant in the room — that no one wants to play these characters because viscerally disgusting. They say the game is going to fail, which obviously it is, but cannot say, or admit even to themselves, why.

Games are now coming out with “conventionally attractive characters — male and female, and the developers will be able to say, and will say, “a male and a female He has created them, and He blesses them, and calls their name Man”. But they will not be able to say, or even think, that gay and trannie characters give them the creeps, give players the creeps, and even give gays and trannies the creeps.

But leftism has to get ever lefter, even though what constitutes “lefter” changes ever faster. The arc of history must bend towards justice, with “justice” being radically redefined at ever shorter intervals.

If leftism retreats to 2021, without launching a new and eventually successful counter offensive against some new apple cart, leftism will die, and the time will arrive for reaction to dump Thermidor, or radically redefine Thermidor.

Thermidor begins. And Thermidor is the death of leftism, then comes our time. The great awakening begins.

TheDividualist says:

Hi Jim,

>Noticing that gays and trannies are disgusting, and that they themselves find gays and trannies disgusting, is still a thought crime.

I ran across a surprisingly honest “queer theorist”, so I will share that for fun. Basically, gay sex is disgusting, so they don’t want us to think about gay sex, rather they want us to think about a gay identity. That’s because identity can be something boring and unserious and uninteresting. Like those Americans who keep calling themselves Irish, but they know nothing at all about Ireland other thank drinking at St. Patricks? Their Irish identity is boring and unserious and no one really pays attention to it, and that is how gays want us to think about them too. Something very similar about trannies.

You know, I was wondering about this identity stuff, and this is a good explanation. Identity can be like Bob is saying he is 1/16 Chocktaw and no one really gives a shit about that.

So turning things into an identity can be a form of camouflage. A kind of a thought-stopper.

Mossadnik says:

Exactly so.

That’s why I always insist on using vivid graphics descriptions when discussing the Sodomite Problem. Your mind needs to see it, hear it, and best of all – smell it.

“Gay” is far, far too abstract. A gaping, AIDS-blood leaking, hirsute rosebud, infested with writhing and wiggling worms, incontinently shooting out nigger-semen-mixed pozzed diarrhea (with a whiff of vaseline) everywhere is the image you should bear in mind when the issue is brought up. The problem should always be concretized; that is, de-abstractized. Awakening your healthy disgust reflex is the whole point.

The faggots-maggots absolutely hate it when you do so; it never fails to trigger them. They know perfectly well that what they’re doing is disgusting; so they seek to silence the discussion and present faggotry as “fun.” But there is nothing fun about what they’re doing; it’s objectively horrible.

Your Uncle Bob says:

Companies did shed DEI – they went from 2024 DEI all the way back to 2021!

Trump’s very recent executive order barring disparate impact liability is both a leg sweep of current year DEI and a frontal assault on the civil rights status quo of the past five decades. The first as it removes the formal incentive to keep DEI jobs and programs around as protective amulets when a disparate impact claim pops up – as it statistically must. The second as disparate impact has never been seriously challenged since 1971. (And, yes, this one goes to the Supremes eventually, but that would clearly be known and planned for.)

In this case and more generally, it appears to me the Trump team is staying in the fight, and is working a plan. Not exactly what my plan would be, or yours, or probably that of any commenter here, but a plan of some kind. Whether it actually wins is very much in the air, but I’m not depressed by the back and forth of the fight.

Enonym says:

Through him all things were created. Fully God and fully man. God is three and God is one. Then you can tell us about Christianity.

I recently read two works for the first time:

The Unabomber Manifesto reads like something an intelligent straight white male sociologist would write, if such a creature ever existed. Against racism, doesn’t go near the woman question, no thought crimes, shill test failed.

Elliot Rodger aces the shill test with this:

Women should not have the right to choose who to mate and breed with. That decision should be made for them by rational men of intelligence. If women continue to have rights, they will only hinder the advancement of the human race by breeding with degenerate men and creating stupid, degenerate offspring. This will cause humanity to become even more depraved with each generation. Women have more power in human society than they deserve, all because of sex. There is no creature more evil and depraved than the human female.

Alas, he proposes only Pol-Pottish solutions, not even considering Jimian patriarchy, probably because it wouldn’t do him any good.

Bix Nudelmann says:

Well, the CPC just rolled back some of their women’s rights to their husbands’ stuff and >50% child custody in event of divorce, making them the most based high-IQ government on earth. Like right out in the open.

My normalcy bias and learned helplessness say it’ll never happen in 100 years, but history’s not waiting for my permission for shit.

Bix Nudelmann says:

Meaning that the CPC has just broken character and revealed what everyone already but quietly knows, which is that rolling back women’s rights is a critical tool of economic, geopolitical and military competitiveness. It’s the gun on the table that everyone was ignoring, until now.

It was bound to happen eventually, and who knows what this snowball rolls into next.

ER was an autistic hapa (and classic-case spiteful mutant) and far less intelligent than Uncle Ted; to be fair though, “Patriarchalism” as a worldview was not yet all that prominent online in 2014, and the old incelosphere marinated in all kinds of delusional leftism, leading to s**ty solutions to the WQ such as those proposed by ER and others. In retrospect, it’s easy to say, “Just go full Jim, bro,” but at the time Patriarchalism was grossly intellectually underdeveloped and the domain of utterly useless Trad-Con bluepillers who did a terrible disservice to the expounding of that worldview. Now the consequences of Tinder and such, introduced in 2012, and the absolute liberation of female sexuality, are obvious to everyone with half a functioning brain cell; back then, it was still not perfectly obvious.

PatS says:

Love process from logic and reason. This is why the term LOGOS is of utter importances to Christ.
Look at The Last Gospel (John 1:1); it’s right there in the very first verse: “In the beginning was The Word” (Verbum in Latin; but Logos in the original Greek).
Logos means logic and/or reason in the Greek. So therefore we see clearly that John identifies God NOT as “The Caritas” (Latin for love, which is the root of the word charity) or The Agape (Greek for the ultimate self-sacrificial love).
John does not say, “In the beginning was the Love…” No, no. John identifies God as THE LOGOS. The Word. Logic and reason. Existential Reality.

Why? Because Divine Love proceeds out of the Logos. Yep. Logic/Reason/Reality comes first, then only proceeding out of Logic/Reason/Reality is Caritas, which is love. Logic/Reason/Reality is the Divine Base Premise. Charity/Love is the Divine Corollary.

Logos, THE (Gr. Logos; Lat. Verbum-Word).—The word Logos is the term by which Christian theology in the Greek language designates the Word of God, or Second Person of the Blessed Trinity. Before St. John had consecrated this term by adopting it, the Greeks and the Jews had used it to express religious conceptions which, under divers titles, have exercised a certain influence on Christian theology, and of which it is necessary to say something.

I. THE LOGOS IN HELLENISM
It is in Heraclitus that the theory of the Logos appears for the first time, and it is doubtless for this reason that, first among the Greek philosophers, Heraclitus was regarded by St. Justin (Apol. I, 46) as a Christian before Christ. For him the Logos, which he seems to identify with fire, is that universal principle which animates and rules the world. This conception could only find place in a materialistic monism. The philosophers of the fifth and fourth centuries before Christ were dualists, and conceived of God as transcendent, so that neither in Plato (whatever may have been said on the subject) nor in Aristotle do we find the theory of the Logos.

I don’t want to lecture anyone on Christianity, but please let me share some musings. One basic problem with religions is that their gods are overly anthropomorphic, like super-men, which is not easily believable. Now Christ explicitly said no one goes to God the Father except through him. What does that imply?

I think it implies Christians to think that the Divine is something very much not similar to humans. Not a super-man. We link up with Christ’s human side, and He then sort of drives us to the Divine side, which is very “alien” and not understandable by humans without such an aid at all.

This enables Christians to think that the universe was not created by some old bearded dude, but have a more intelligent theology about at a not all human-like First Cause.

In Judaism and Islam humans should sort of try to go directly to God, which implies a very human-like God.

What do you think? I hope this is not a heresy. There MUST be a reason no one goes to the Father but through Christ and while the most commonly cited reason is original sin, this might be part of it, too.

Mossadnik says:

In Judaism and Islam humans should sort of try to go directly to God, which implies a very human-like God.

Not sure about this.

Quran 42:51:

It is not given to any human being that Allâh should speak to him unless (it be) by Revelation, or from behind a veil, or (that) He sends a Messenger to reveal what He wills by His Leave. Verily, He is Most High, Most Wise.

Furthermore,

Sahih Muslim 179a (Hadith):

Abu Musa reported:

“The Messenger of Allah was standing amongst us and he told us five things. He said: Verily the Exalted and Mighty God does not sleep, and it does not befit Him to sleep. He lowers the scale and lifts it. The deeds in the night are taken up to Him before the deeds of the day, and the deeds of the day before the deeds of the night. His veil is the light.”

In the hadith narrated by Abu Bakr (instead of the word “light” ) it is fire. If he withdraws it (the veil), the splendour of His countenance would consume His creation so far as His sight reaches.

Doesn’t seem to be overly anthropomorphic to me.

Alf says:

Mohammed’s God is distinctly more distant, less anthropomorphic than Christ’s God.

Anon says:

so it begin :
Milwaukee Judge Hannah Dugan arreste by FBI.
here the story
“Attorney General Pam Bondi explains what really happened with Milwaukee Judge Hannah Dugan that led to her arrest by FBI:

“The Judge learns that ICE was outside to get the guy, because he had been deported in 2013, came back into our country, charged with committing these crimes, victim is in court.

Judge finds out. She goes out into the hallway. Screams at the immigration officer. She’s furious. Visibly shaken. Upset. Sends them off to talk to the chief judge.

“She comes back into the courtroom. You’re not going to believe this. Takes the defendant and the defense attorney back in her chambers. Takes them out a private exit and tells them to leave. While the state prosecutor and victims of domestic violence are sitting in the courtroom.”

Jim says:

Whoopee.

For a very long time Judges have been above the law, Professors have been above the law, Effective Altruists have been above the law, and leftist criminals have been above the law.

The Ziz cult (Effective Altruism without the necessary unprincipled exceptions) was murdering people under Biden, but when they murdered people under Trump, the FBI finally came after them. Arresting these judges was foreshadowed by arresting Ziz.

And Pam Bondi is based, in so far as any women who is not keeping house, popping out babies, and raising children can be based. She stressed that the gangster punched a woman with a “closed fist” (tone of genuine shock and horror on the “closed”. This implies the standard reactionary doctrine that it absolutely never permissible to punch a woman, but it is sometimes permissible, and sometimes necessary, to slap her in the face.

Karl says:

It is a start, but Dugan has been released. Maybe such judges are still above the law.

Jim says:

Hanna Dugan’s next court appearance is scheduled for May 15.

So don’t announce that we shall drown and no one will save us until May 16.

Karl says:

I’m not so pessimistic that I assume the case will be closed on May 16. I expect some lengthy proceedings and fear that she will get either no punishment or at most a slap on the wrist. She’ll have to pay for her legal defense, but that is not more than a nuisance; nothing to strike fear in the heart of other activist judges.

As I wrote above, it is a start. Maybe we will drown, but somebody is making an attempt to save us from drowning.

Neurotoxin says:

The very fact that she got arrested is a huge shock to the system.

Judges have grown used to the idea that they are absolutely above the law – that no matter how egregiously wrong their rulings are, the absolute worst that can happen is that the rulings will be overturned by a higher court. Now suddenly that’s not the worst that can happen. Actual consequences for the lawless judge are possible.

The Cominator says:

Didn’t get arrested for an outrageous ruling but for sneaking an illegal out the back of the court. But still good good…

Mossadnik says:

As someone living under a brutal, oppressive Judicial Tyranny – please don’t stop; more and more and more. King Donald should set an example to inspire the whole world; let the Deep Staters and unaccountable bureaucrats everywhere quake in their soiled diapers.

Karl says:

Maybe judges in the US got used to the idea that they are above the law. In Germany, only progressive judges are above the law – and every judge is aware of that fact.

E.g., in 2021 a German judge dared to rule that the government’s covid rules were detrimental to the health of children in schools and therefore void. He was sentenced to 2 years on probation, removed from office and lost all pension benefits. He cannot work as an attorney with that conviction.

Neurotoxin says:

“Didn’t get arrested for an outrageous ruling but for sneaking an illegal out the back of the court. But still good good…”

Yep. A shot across the bow, because the crime for which she was arrested was teh holy, politically correct crime of aiding and abetting an illegal alien.

“in 2021 a German judge dared to rule that the government’s covid rules were detrimental to the health of children in schools and therefore void. He was sentenced to 2 years on probation, removed from office and lost all pension benefits.”

Damn! That and the Romanian judge incident make me think the judge situation is even worse in Europe than in the US, which I would have hardly thought possible!

Encelad says:

Judges in Europe routinely overrule any “right wing” (whatever mild “right wing”can be) decision of every non leftist elected government. The standard procedure is that non leftist orders are openly and proudly defied from below and then overruled from the top.
Example:
>Government decides to give a stimulus for poor married, native couples.
>Local leftist authorities down the command chain, decide that immigrants, faggot couples and single mothers are eligible too, and since those, being the most dysfunctional, are usually the most broke, get 90% of the funds allocated.
>”right wing” elected official cries outrage, that’s not what we meant to do!
>(equivalent of) Supreme Court states that not giving stimulus to degenerates is a violation of human rights or some BS like that. Case closed.



> If the elected officials drag their feet (Very unlikely, but it might happen) Leftist deputies of the same country pull strings at the European Parliament to inflict an Infringement Procedure on their own country to put pressure on elected Government until the disputed law is properly “fixed”.
Mainstream media covers the whole struggle as a battle between nazi intolerant bigots and heroic judges who save Democracy once again.

Jim says:

The merely elected government is irrelevant when the judiciary, the professoriat, and the bureaucracy are solidly leftist. And, for the most part, entirely content to be irrelevant. Trump outrages the left, because not content to be irrelevant. It is a constitutional crisis. They are accustomed to governing, and the merely elected government is attempting to interfere.

A state is always governed by a synthetic tribe, so always has a state religion. (Or like Russia after the fall of Communism and before Putin, gets dominated by enemy outsiders) And the state religion always governs, because only adherents of the official religion, in our case the unofficially official religion, are allowed access to state and quasi state office. It is always going to be that way, so the question then is, what is to be the state religion?

Thermidor is now in political power, but Thermidor is not a viable state religion. It is composed of leftists who want their old unprincipled exceptions to leftism back. For example, RFK Junior wants the left to stop making Americans fat and sick. He blames the evil corporations — the medical/food/industrial complex. But he should be asking himself about fat acceptance and trannyism. The left is disproportionately unhealthy (compare the Trump cabinet with the Biden cabinet, look at Antifa) and, being spiteful, wants everyone sick.

The infamous food pyramid was not created by the food industrial complex, but by leftist academia. Because they were fat and sick, they wanted everyone to be fat and sick.

Only the reactionary right has a viable counter state religion. Trump appears to be aware of this belief system, and we have some adherents in the cabinet. Thermidor tends to wind up relying on the reactionary right to get stuff done, because they invariably find that their own guys just do not do it.

Hence Putin’s focus on “spiritual security”. He may or may not be an Orthodox Christian, but he understands that he can only prevent woke from ruling by Christianity ruling.

We are in a worse position than Russia, because Orthodoxy was only eighty percent postChristian, while Protestantism is ninety nine percent postChristian, but we are in a better position than Russia, because old type protestantism, the one percent of protestants who are still Christian, is more compatible with science, technology, the market economy, valid book keeping, and de-emancipation of women.

Jim says:

> RFK Jr isn’t a fan of fat acceptance.

No, but he is willing to believe it comes out of misguided love and caring, rather than the same place as food pyramid and the demonization of cholesterol. What I wonder is his explanation for the man jaw epidemic in female video game characters?

The man jaw epidemic, fat acceptance, the food pyramid, the official science of cholesterol and saturated fats, all came out of Harvard, all have the same aim and same purpose. The food industrial complex and the medical industrial complex just came along for the ride. Covid was not weaponized by the medical industrial complex.

It was not the medical industrial complex that gave the Covid virus gain of function mutation. It was not even the medical industrial complex that developed the jab. Fauci just gave it to them and told them to pretend it was a vaccine.

Blaming giant corporations for Covid, the Jab, and obesity is like blaming war on war profiteers.

Giant corporations want to exploit their customers. The left wants to kill their customers.

white bread says:

Blaming giant corporations for Covid, the Jab, and obesity is like blaming war on war profiteers.

And that is of course correct. Those big businesses, which have close alliances with the state, create big incentives for war, sickness and the like. This is a basic insight provided by political economy.

(As a side note, I wouldn’t blame obesity on the corporate food mafia, although their products are crap)

Giant corporations want to exploit their customers. The left wants to kill their customers.

It seems to me that what you call the left and big business closely cooperate to indeed exploit the customers. In the US both sides of the One Party are blatantly corporatist. Europe is hardly different, etc. I would argue that this kind of highly centralized control by government and allegedly private firms is a form of communism, but I doubt that’s what you mean by “the left”.

The Cominator says:

RFK Jr (and Tulsi) are different than Thermidor leftists/the cuck right. They are sincere even fervent FDR type leftists with a mix of hippieish dislike of any large institutions and certain aspects of modernity (I’ve mentioned before my experience with such types is that unlike progs they are not evil), like Thermidor they’ve concluded the current left is quite insane but unlike Thermidor I get the sense they realize how truly evil the new left is they don’t seem to be operating under the delusion they are misguided. Tulsi seems (unlike Bondi) to be surprisingly effective so far despite being a woman and a not quite white woman at that… her hatred of the current left seems sincere.

Also RFK Jr isn’t a fan of fat acceptance.

The Cominator says:

Big pharma corporations seem to be half and half about making money and killing their customers… given Faucis cozy relationship with them one can speculate about why.

Neurotoxin says:

“big businesses, which have close alliances with the state, create big incentives for war, sickness and the like. This is a basic insight provided by political economy.”

Many a business is producing products that it knows its customers hate. The entertainment industry is the marquee example here, but it’s not the only one.

Toys R Us, before it went bankrupt, donated money to Planned Parenthood. That is, it literally funded an organization that was dedicated to killing Toys R Us’s customers before they were born.

Leftism is an all-consuming religion. Within the souls of its serious adherents it swallows all other motives.

Jehu says:

Any means you can get rid of judges like that are good ones. Perhaps Trump needs a small army of private investigators to dig up dirt on such judges. I bet you can get rid of a large percentage in a perfectly legal method that doesn’t require votes.

This ‘basic insight’ is that wet streets cause rain.

Sure enough, where you can find one, you can always find the other. Never the less…

white bread says:

That’s right. There’s no causal connection between, say, the military industrial complex and war. The military industrial complex doesn’t profit from war and doesn’t “invest” any “resources” in war propaganda. to promote war. It’s just coincidence. No “revolving door” either.

Or is it some kind of “backwards causation”? The military industrial complex is caused by war? First war comes out of nowhere, and then arms are produced? Except how can you start a war without weapons? Must be a christian mystery. Or something.

Anyway, I’m sure you are concerned about these poor corporations that are being oppressed by “the left” because…reasons.

Jim says:

> The military industrial complex is caused by war?

Caused by war and the threat of war.

It all started when we got dangerously far from the nearest tree and the top ape insisted that every male had to walk upright in order to carry a rock. It was nuisance back then, and has been getting worse ever since.

Mossadnik says:

The military industrial complex is caused by war? First war comes out of nowhere, and then arms are produced?

We are hairy monkeys who yesterday fell off the tree and broke the tail, and sometimes we don’t get along with each other — such is our nature, due to various evolutionary selection pressures — so we seek to kill one another, and to do so more efficiently, we develop weapons, and gradually improve on them.

S says:

The military industrial complex profits from sales, not war. It financially benefits from fear mongering and arms races, not wars which have the downside of requiring the products to be used. The best case scenario is getting billions to produce a prototype and then having the project canceled- as long as the funds are enough the whole process is profitable, the fact nothing productive was done doesn’t matter.

A functional military industrial complex has different priorities, but that requires it to be subordinate to actually advancing the will of the state (so aiming to produce equipment to win wars instead of profitability).

Daddy Scarebucks says:

Except how can you start a war without weapons?

Very easily. Pick up a stick or a rock. Or use your fists. And that’s after the fighting has begun; to merely start a war, it is often sufficient to spit on their shoes, or simply mutter a few words a little too loudly under your breath.

PC already made this clear with “wet streets cause rain” analogy. No one said there isn’t a causal relationship between war and profiteering; that is a non sequitur. What was said is that war profiteering can’t exist without war, whereas war can and does routinely exist without war profiteering, so it is extremely obvious which direction the causation runs, and it is not the direction you assert.

I mean, do you think the Punic Wars were caused by arms dealers? What about the Indian Wars? Try giving some actual thought to what you’re writing here.

white bread says:

MIC doesn’t profit from war

I think you get the picture. And I also think I’m done wasting time with “you guys”. And let me be clear : your politics are as laughably stupid as is your “religious” judeo-christian insanity.

ps: You might want to get a copy of a booklet called “Wealth of Nations” and do a search for “merchants and manufacturers”. See what the book says about the deals between “merchants and manufacturers” and the government. See what the author had to say about the moral standing of “merchants and manufacturers”.

pps: Jim is trying to roleplay as somebody who is worried about war and wants to avoid it. Hilarious.

Jim says:

> Big pharma has no incentive to lobby for compulsory “vaccination” and the like

On covid the incentive was to lobby for something ineffective and relatively harmless, not something ineffective and dangerous.

The jab reveals that Big Pharma’s operations are driven by the state, the state’s actions are not driven by big pharma.

Similarly, what incentive does Disney have to attack its own Snow White IP?

The worst thing that can happen to the Defence Industrial complex is competition. If US weapons are used against a peer adversary, we discover that they don’t actually work very well. Competition is likely to ensue.

white bread says:

>On covid the incentive was to lobby for something ineffective

I said that big pharma lobbies for compulsory vaccination and of course there is compulsory vaccination, for covaids and for a lot of other fake illnesses and true poisons, I mean “scientific vaccines”.

>The jab reveals that Big Pharma’s operations are driven by the state, the state’s actions are not driven by big pharma.

Big pharma and the state are two sides of the same coin, as are the rest of your beloved crony capitalists. They cooperate for mutual profit.

>Similarly, what incentive does Disney have to attack its own Snow White IP?

I’ll assume that Disney is paid by the state to produce tranny propaganda and similar crap, like they do. Also, the whole “intelectual property” nonsense is a creation of the state. Disney can’t exist without “intelectual property” enforced by the state so they have a big incentive to cooperate with the state.

>Snow White IP

Snow White is a folk tale which can be traced to classical antiquity. Yet somehow, now it’s Disney’s “property”. Yeah right. Oh and your computer running crapware from Microsoft is de facto Microsoft’s computer, not yours.

Jim says:

Doge following the money has discovered that video game companies were paid to produce tranny propaganda. So probably Disney was also paid.

But Disney has lost huge amounts of money producing tranny propaganda, and lots of game studios have gone under producing tranny propaganda. People lost their jobs for the holy cause of sexually mutilating as many children as possible.

white bread says:

>But Disney has lost huge amounts of money producing tranny propaganda

So the question is why do they keep doing it? I haven’t researched the case so I’ve no clue. Apparently they are acting like “true believers”? The company has been somehow taken over by trannies? I don’t think so called DEI legistlation requires Disney to be a completely trannified company.

But let’s say the only reason Disney is doing that is because the state is forcing them and so the state is ruining the company. That would be an actual case of a big business being victimized by the state. Yet that wouldn’t disprove the existence of cronny capitalism, if that’s what you’re getting at.

In the 2009 financial crisis the US gvernment allowed the bankrupt fimancial system to avoid deserved bankruptcy, but interestingly enough they didn’t save an important joo bank like Lehman Brothers. So maybe Lehman Brothers was marginally less corrupt than the competition. But whatever the case, the fact that one company wasn’t “bailed out” doesn’t disprove cronny capitalism.

Jim says:

> So the question is why do they keep doing it?

The woke mind virus. No man rules alone. If the CEO is unwilling to interpret those who have succumbed to the woke mind virus as demons and zombies, his company is going to be run into the ground. When the CEO’s company is overrun by zombies and vampires, he has to interpret them as formerly human, but no longer human, dead bodies puppeted by demons, or else it is impossible to resist them.

The science proves that DEI appointees do a better job than people appointed on merit. The science proves that the player fanbase wants to play as Saint Floyd of Fentanyl in feudal Japan. If you doubt the science, you are being unscientific, ignorant, and bigoted. The science proves that going woke does not send you broke, but on the contrary, is good for shareholders and if any shareholder doubts it, that shareholder is just motivated by hatred of blacks, women, gays and trannies. Due process proves that Saint Floyd of Fentanyl was murdered by a policeman. Can you doubt due process 🙃

When everyone around you agrees that X is true (and anyone who doubts that X is true is going to be deplatformed, demonetized, and cancelled) it is very hard to doubt X.

There is a classic horror movie scene, the vampire ball, where the protagonists are attending what seems to be an aristocratic party in a luxurious mansion, and then in a mirror, they see that they are in a desolate ruin. When your business is overrun by the woke mind virus, it is like that.

> the fact that one company wasn’t “bailed out” doesn’t disprove cronny capitalism.

Obviously the FIRE economy is crony capitalism. Obviously Musk is not crony capitalism. The FIRE economy of fake and gay GDP is parasitic upon the real economy of real GDP. When the cancer consumes the host, as in Britain, your entire country collapses, as Britain is collapsing. Fake GDP is not keeping Britons fed, clothed, and housed.

The problem is that people use “crony capitalism” as an excuse to destroy the real economy that produces real goods and real services. Britain today is like the ruin in the reflection in the horror movie. Despite official statistics, the farms, the factories, the mines, the pubs, and so on and so forth, are closed, empty, and falling apart, like the mansion in the horror movie.

Crony capitalist companies soon stop producing anything real. Everything you actually use is produced by real capitalism. Jaguar has a head office, marketing, accounting, finance, legal department, and all that, everything superficially seems normal, but no factories and no engineers. They produce startlingly ugly artwork of concept cars, but not prototypes of actual cars that are capable of moving around under their own power. It is the illusory pretence of a real economy, like the vampire ball is an illusion. The company staff are NPCs. They are not real people, and nothing is actually being produced. The business is not real, and people seemingly operating tbe business are not real people.

white bread says:

>Crony capitalist companies soon stop producing anything real. Everything you actually use is produced by real capitalism.

Crony capitalists can produce relatively useful stuff, at higher price/lower quality. And that can go on for a long time. Yes, the most extreme cases of crony capitalism, like big pharma, produce literal poisons, but that’s not necessary the general outcome.

>Everything you actually use is produced by real capitalism.

Nah, that’s propaganda. The kind of propaganda to be expected from crony capitalists. Look, politically the US is a free society protecting world freedom! And economically the US is a free market! And pigs fly.

Jim says:

> Crony capitalists can produce relatively useful stuff, at higher price/lower quality.

Not for very long. Producing stuff is hard. Very hard. And if the state does not care if its cronies are productive or not, they eventually stop producing anything real.

An economic system that is pervasively crony capitalist eventually runs into the economic crisis that Britain is now suffering. As the productive assets of the cronies stop working, they use state favor to take over other peoples productive assets, which also stop working. And eventually everything is shut down. Only the small family farms are still producing, and the Labor government in Britain is coming after them too.

white bread says:

> if the state does not care if its cronies are productive or not, they eventually stop producing anything real.

Although that sounds plausible from a theoretical point of view, it is false in practice. As I said, and as the historical record shows, crony capitalism just keeps going on. Adding the qualifier “if the state does not care” acknowledges my point I think. In practice the state and its cronies have to care and have to provide at least some value.

Crony capitalism is in a way similar to taxation. If you are forced to buy from crony capitalists you will be paying higher prices – a kind of tax. And taxation at certain levels can go on forever.

One could naively argue that the government would keep increasing the tax rate until it reaches 100% but of course at 100% the taxpayers will be dead. So in practice the state will try to steal as much as possible which in turn means being at least somewhat “reasonable”. Same thing with crony capitalism.

Jim says:

> If you are forced to buy from crony capitalists you will be paying higher prices.

You are never forced to buy from crony capitalists long term, because crony capitalists in the long term do not produce anything real — if they remain cronies, they cease to be capitalists. You wind up, as in the FIRE economy, buying bits of paper from crony capitalists that give you permission to do some actual capitalism.

As in Britain, the state response to this problem is apt to be to force the remaining capitalists out of business.

Jim says:

> > if the state does not care if its cronies are productive or not, they eventually stop producing anything real.

> Although that sounds plausible from a theoretical point of view, it is false in practice.

So, what actually existent crony capitalists are still producing anything real? Who are you calling crony capitalists? Are you calling Musk a crony capitalist?

Jim says:

> So in practice the state will try to steal as much as possible which in turn means being at least somewhat “reasonable”. Same thing with crony capitalism.

The state has an incentive to not destroy its tax base, so if it is capable of acting as unitary actor, it will not. Unfortunately modern states are less and less capable of acting as a unitary actor, so are taxing and regulating further and further above the Laffer limit.

The crony capitalist is capable of acting as a unitary actor, but lacks individual incentive to continue producing anything real, so he does not.

Jim says:

Here is how Crony Capitalism works in practice:

Musk threatens to provide internet access to underserved rural areas.

To head off Musk, the government allocates twenty billion to cronies to deliver broadband to underserved rural areas. No broadband is delivered. Except of course, Starlink, which of course gets no government funding.

Frustrated, the government allocates a further forty billion. Again, no actual broadband ensues. Except of course, Starlink, which of course gets no government funding.

Since the rules as written say that Starlink is entitled to a handout. and is the only internet provider entitled to a handout, litigation is ongoing, but I really don’t expect any progress until Trump starts giving judges and senior civil servants long distance swimming lessons in the Pacific. Or at least starts confiscating their mysteriously acquired wealth.

It is a lot easier to stop civil servants from doing bad things, than it is to actually make them do their jobs.

This is how crony capitalism normally works. If that is not how it works, it is not crony capitalism.

MIC is interested in pulling off the Dreadnought race- massively expensive weapon systems that were pointless for German, basically never used and eventually scuttled.

Pharma is interested in mandating vaccines because it secures demand that can’t be secured by other options. But the corrupt corporate executive option is filling the vials with water which maximizes profit margins, not killing their customers.

Daddy Scarebucks says:

Yet that wouldn’t disprove the existence of cronny capitalism

Crony capitalism very obviously exists. Crony capitalism also is not “corporatism”, or what a linguistic quibbler such as myself would more accurately term “corpocracy”. That word is just another fnord for communists and assorted lefty riffraff to express their hatred of the productive class.

There is an actual, true word for the hypothetical system you’re describing in which big corporations are always and inextricably in bed with the government: Fascism. The original, authentic, vine-ripened Italian brand, where the government sets all production targets but corporations handle the public-facing trade. It is not corporations running the government, it is government running corporations, but it is the closest approximation to what you describe that actually exists in reality, or can exist.

Fascism, being just another flavor of central planning, is an extremely left-wing form of government, only very slightly less left-wing than Communism or Socialism.

The United States are not Fascist, even though it might look that way from a certain perspective. The United States are, functionally speaking, a theocratic republic. Status is gained and lost by piety, money chases status, business chases money; thus business will always try to make a big show of supporting the state religion, far more so than they would in a non-theocratic regime. The business sector also has a sordid history of falling for its own bullshit, getting high off its own farts, pick your favorite analogy here.

The religion, of course, is Progressivism. I call it a Republic but the estates don’t have any relationship to the nominal estates defined in the U.S. Constitution. The estates of the TRA are the Press (already unironically called the Fourth Estate), the Academy, and the Bureaucracy.

I don’t know if you’ve ever worked for big business, but I have. They live and die by the Press; a week of “bad press” is worse than losing half your revenue. They faithfully serve the Academy, whose teachings, such as the doubleplus goodness of Diversity Inclusion Equity, are often filtered through Consultants and strange mercenary C-suite titles like Chief Compliance Officer or Chief Risk Officer. And their behavior is carefully monitored and enforced by lifetime members of the Bureaucracy, what the Soviets called zampolit, and what we call “HR”.

This is the actuality of the modern corporate structure. The reason it is so broken is not because corporations seek to maximize profits (though they do, of course, seek to maximize profits) but because they are attempting to serve at least three masters simultaneously: the shareholders, the nominal (constitutional) government, and the functional (theocratic) government. It is impossible to give equal attention to all three, which is why in a healthy society, the nominal and functional governments are the same entity, and that entity strictly delegates its supervisory responsibility to the corporation’s shareholders and pledges non-interference outside of stopping flagrant criminal conduct.

But our system forces them to actually try to serve all three masters at once, and they can’t. What they can do, and this is how most corporations cope, is tithing and indulgences. Diversity Inclusion Equity and Sarbanes-Oxley are tithes; they are simply a “cost of doing business” beyond normal taxation. Carbon credits and troon quotas are indulgences; they buy a certain number of months or years of the functional government getting off their back so that they can actually do business for a while without interference. Or at least, they used to, back when the functional government was agreement-capable; Thermidor is in large part a reaction to the Progressive theocracy repeatedly and retroactively changing the terms of the deal. I think it was Marc Andreessen who did an enlightening interview on this, which was posted here a while back.

Is it any surprise that money flows from corporations to government and NGO offices? What would you do, if your livelihood was being threatened by regulation or lawfare, from an entity you dare not confront openly? You wheedle, you beg, you bribe… or else you fold your hand and end up on the street. And once you are already in the habit of bribing someone just to be able to run your own business, why not pass along a little extra once in a while to make life harder for your competitors? It’s just good business, Sopranos style.

None of this even comes close to a scenario where corporations run the luxury cruise ship of state. They consider themselves lucky if they just get to eat at the buffet.

Hypothetical? I’m talking about how big business and the state cooperate for mutual benefit, against “we the people”. There’s absolutely nothing hypothetical about that. You just presented poor big businesses as victims of government, again. Laughable.

Also your propaganda is of course completely un-historical. The “modern corporate structure” you’re talking about, which is concerned with DEI crap is what, 25 years old at best?

What happened in the 1930s when FDR saved US fascism, sorry I mean saved US free market capitalism by, among other things, confiscating gold and devaluing the dollar by 50%?

Jim says:

What happened in the 1936 was Italian style fascism, where the state subjugated and crushed the capitalists. This was institutional preparation for total war. At the end of the war, congress abruptly reversed this, and reinstituted a somewhat watered down version of modern capitalism — modern capitalism being the system implemented in the seventeenth century by the Dutch Republic and Charles the Second in England.

“Modern corporate structure” is confusing terminology. I call it postmodern corporate structure, because the term “Modern capitalism” refers to the system implemented in the seventeenth century. The term “stakeholder capitalism” is also used in Europe, but this a propaganda term, because in practice “stakeholder capitalism” means that power is held in the corporation by people who have no stake in its continued existence and functioning: HR, accounting, and legal.

Now you are being completely ridiculous. We got to see crony versus real capitalism with the USSR where the state owned factories produced negative value and the only thing keeping everything together was the black and grey market aka real capitalism.

Entropy exists; the type of society that is willing to let firms loot society is the same type of society that will boot out the current CEO and place someone else to kickback the loot to them, causing things to decay until there is pushback from above or collapse.

white bread says:

First, I’m talking about the economic system of the “free world” today, not the economic system of soviet Russia 40 years ago. Of course, comparing the two might be instructive, but your comparison isn’t instructive.

> the state owned factories produced negative value and the only thing keeping everything together was the black and grey market aka real capitalism

The state owned factories were a text book example of outright communism, not crony capitalism. And the black market wasn’t and isn’t “real capitalism”. Indeed black markets provide goods of lower quality/higher prices just like crony capitalism. Black markets are created by state intervention, even if that’s not the official intent. Now, black markets may be better than outright communism, but they are not “real capitalism”.

Jim says:

> And the black market wasn’t and isn’t “real capitalism”.

Black markets are the purest and truest form of capitalism. The objective of my project is to make all markets black, and bring the modern corporate form (by which I mean the seventeenth century corporate form, not the postmodern corporate form of Sarbannes-Oxley accounting and Human Resources) to black markets everywhere.

Pseudo-Chrysostom says:

Over 1/4-1/3 of all total economic activity in wartime America was technically ‘black market’, according to the strictures that the FDR regime put into place. And the FDR regime – or at least a significant enough subset thereof – had to let it happen.

Partly because unable to stop it anyways. Partly because they could have lost if they tried, because war production depended on the things they ended up making ‘black market’ and all their attempts at price fixing economic activity resulted in losses from dysfunction.

Daddy Scarebucks says:

Hypothetical? I’m talking about how big business and the state cooperate for mutual benefit, against “we the people”. There’s absolutely nothing hypothetical about that.

I’m starting to get a real Anonymous Fake vibe from you, as in “the lights are on but nobody’s home”. It’s as if you just heard some phrase, “Crony Capitalism”, that you decided you liked, and don’t really understand what it means, but since the phrasing sounds vaguely anti-capitalist, you try to deploy it at every opportunity.

Likewise “we the people”, as if we are supposed to consider ourselves as being on the same team as a commie entryist. It’s pure unadulterated Trotskyism. “You should hate the merchant with two cows shekels, because he’s exploited the workers consumers”, when it’s obvious that you hate both him and us, and want to kill both him and us and pick up whatever shekels fall out of our pockets.

Also your propaganda is of course completely un-historical. The “modern corporate structure” you’re talking about, which is concerned with DEI crap is what, 25 years old at best?

This is a more specific example of the NPCdom. The three estates of the theocratic republic are ancient, dating all the way back to the 17th century; DEI is just one of the newer innovations, like ESG. If “something something DEI” was your only takeaway from what I wrote, then you clearly didn’t read it, or didn’t understand most of it. I’ve tried to be patient with you, even advocated other posters be patient with you, but it’s becoming increasingly obvious that you are in fact a commie entryist and are only here to shout angry slogans.

But it’s OK. This is your propaganda outlet. I won’t bother anymore with it. All you can do is pretend that anybody explaining basic libertarianism is a “communist”.

Jim says:

The financial mafia do not produce goods.

Arms manufacture eventually fails to produce goods, and the urgency of war leads to them being bypassed in favor of arms manufacturers who do produce goods. This is happening now with the Navy, where the argument for recreating a civilian ship building industry is that the Navy will be able to contract with them to produce ships. For some considerable time the Navy has been paying large amounts of money to arms manufacturers, but no ships have been forthcoming.

Pharma produces goods, but the stuff that is actually useful is the generics, which are produced by real capitalists. From time to time new pharma businesses appear with real drugs, and fight an enormous battle to get approved, and if they succeed, become crony capitalists, that being the only way to get approved, and once they are cronies, milk that forever and stop doing anything very useful.

‘Can you go out of business?’ If you can, it is capitalism. If you can’t, the label doesn’t matter. You can have functional systems to develop industries or extract money from the population, but those require virtue and close supervision- the usual trend is looting the company and customers.

You are analyzing “crony capitalists” as if they are a unitary game-theoretic agent. They aren’t. This is a problem that plagues all kinds of human action, and in politics it affects both sides.

Taxation and other economic burdens (regulations etc.) have grown out of control precisely because no single leftist benefits from exerting self-restraint and it’s a hard problem to organize collective self-restraint. It’s not as if there’s no such thing as taxation beyond the Laffer limit, or other forms of economic burdens that kill the Golden Goose.

Similarly, leftists have a collective action problem in stopping their holiness spiral; they have been unable to even to slow it down. Presumably if leftists could act as a unitary actor, they would abandon their current position of “We hate sick children and we love violent foreign invaders and child-grooming homosexuals.” But the collective nature of their holiness spiral prevents them from doing this.

Cancer cells have a collective action problem in not growing out of control so they kill the organism that they rely on for their survival.

Our side has a collective action problem in organizing resistance to the left. If we didn’t, leftism would have been entirely defeated a long time ago.

TL,DR: You are correct to say that crony capitalism, taxation etc., can go on forever at a certain level. But you are neglecting the dynamic aspects. It is in their game-theoretic nature that they tend to increase beyond that sustainable level.

Merchants have an inherent disability when it comes to being in the driver’s seat. This can be observed in the fact that you can see many of them trying to profit off of throwing themselves off a cliff (eg ‘companies benefit from diversity, equity, and inclusion’).

Jim says:

Ubisoft is controlled by a family that owns a lot of shares in the company. Its largest asset by far is the Assassin’s Creed IP. When they were developing “Assassins Creed: Shadows” no end of critics on YouTube told them they were burning their Assassin’s creed.IP down. They proceeded to stubbornly go ahead and burn their IP down. And now they are predictably in deep poop.

It is a French family owned company, and it fell upon its sword because Black Lives Matter.

Faced with a choice between America centric holiness and solvency, they chose America centric holiness. French and family owned, set fire to their company over what was then the hot issue of the day in America. They burned down their primary asset because Saint Floyd of Fentanyl died of overdose while being unkindly restrained by a cop in Minneapolis.

Floyd had twelve times the lethal dose of Fentanyl in him — which if his tolerance was high would not necessarily be lethal — addicts routinely take doses that would kill a non addict. Floyd’s meth level was also sky high — and while someone who has a very high tolerance to Fentanyl can seem fairly normal while full of enough fentanyl to kill a horse, someone with a high level of meth is always dangerously crazy. Plus the combination of meth and fentanyl is simply a lot more likely to kill you. Someone with that amount of meth in him has to be restrained by severe physical violence, and someone with that amount of meth and fentanyl in him is likely to drop dead if you brush him with a feather. So in a sense the claim of the medical examiners that the cop killed him was true, but it is unlikely that he would have died if restrained in that manner while not full of dangerous drugs, and unlikely the cop would have needed to restrain him in that manner had he not been full of dangerous drugs.

Fentanyl by itself is likely to kill you. Meth by itself is likely to kill you. Meth leads to violence and violence is likely to kill you. The combination of the meth plus fentanyl is a lot more likely to kill you than either alone. Saint Floyd of Fentanyl died of meth plus fentanyl plus violence. He injected himself with the meth, he injected himself with the fentanyl, and he initiated the violence.

And for the noble cause that cops in America should handle people out of their brains on dangerous drugs with kid gloves, the French family company set fire to their primary family asset.

Of course BAP is a perfectly straight man. Absolutely, totally, completely heterosexual. To prove just how non-gay BAP truly is, I will share some real quotes of his, rather than Anal Cunt lyrics.

1.

It is only by a coarse, vulgar and sexualized definition of “beauty” that woman can be called beautiful, but the true definition of beauty must necessarily subtract personal interest, and particularly sexual interest. Aesthetic contemplation is impossible when under the thrall of sexual passion. The woman’s body, viewed objectively and aesthetically, would be seen as Schopenhauer correctly notes. Furthermore, the woman is fundamentally incapable of artistic endeavor and the woman is unable to create anything beautiful.

But I would take it further. It is only through a lot of unnatural cosmetics (which includes not only makeup, but plastic surgery, fancy clothes, hair removal, tanning, and so on) plus extreme efforts that go beyond nature (extreme dieting, physical exercise far more than is normal, and so on) that woman can be considered sexually appealing in anything but a prehistoric, grotesque sense. The “stunted, narrow-shouldered, broad-hipped, and short-legged race” is also hairy and immensely grotesque-smelling in the state of nature such as women existed throughout most history…men were only attracted to this in order to satisfy an animal and brute impulse, and in order to make children that would support one in old age.

Only under conditions of advanced civilization and leisure, and through the unnatural and extreme efforts hinted at above, can the woman be made to look appealing at all. But even then her bestial, animal nature still shows itself in her violent and brutish behavior. And so one is reminded, secretly, of her primal and grotesque origin as a “stunted, narrow-shouldered, broad-hipped, and short-legged” hairy, foul-smelling, hoarse-throated creature.

Straight as an arrow.

If Longinus is gay for being attracted to a super-effeminate pretty boy with no masculine characteristics then every society in history outside of those influenced by Judaic codes of morality was “gay.” Forget the Greeks and Romans, who would have found it not only natural for a grown man to be attracted to a beardless boy, but even to prefer him to women; to the extent that it has been complained that when they talk of “love” it’s as if women don’t exist. The same custom existed in Japan, especially among the samurai. Most Arabic love poetry in the middle ages is entirely about boys. The custom was widespread in the Orient everywhere and at all times. Petr in another thread mentioned a book by the explorer Richard Burton–you can find the Sotadic Zone on the internet. Ancient sources mention that the Celts were especially dedicated “boy-lovers.” And so on. So whatever your opinion on the matter may be, it is retarded to call Longinus “gay” over this. Note also that the act of sodomy, or indeed any sexual act, need not be part of the picture.

And no, this is not a matter of “continuum” either, as someone else hinted, it’s entirely a “straight” or manly response to femininity. It is rather odd to cancel it out upon discovery that “it is not a woman,” unless one does so for legitimate moral and religious concerns of a metaphysical nature. Do any of you actually understand the Christian objection to such attraction? I don’t think you would like it. But unless one has such metaphysical reason, then it is in fact an effeminate response to suppress or deny such attraction just because “it is not a woman.” To give an example, Azimuth and some of the other people who want to complain on this thread want us to think that them lamely boffing a big-boned, huge-faced slope-browed virago “woman” with questionable hygiene and hairy legs, who probably pegs or mothers them at night, makes them totally straight; but for Longinus to admit attraction to a pretty, feminine boy makes him a complete fag. If you believe this you’ve already handed over your balls to Big Womyn.

Not even remotely, faintly gay. No siree.

And now, seriously, everyone repeats after me:

Poofs.

Off.

Roofs.

Totally, totally, absolutely a straight man.

Totally not subversive or anything.

And those endless faggot-gaze pictures he still posts on Twitter, day after day, month after month, year after year – they’re not designed to normalize any sexual perversion, right?

Right?

Fidelis says:

No one cares man. This is not gay, you correctly point out what faggotry looks like, some edgy wordceling is not it (and that’s what it is, some edgy wordceling).

You’ve been autistically pursuing this for ages now. Find something more interesting to obsess about. We have actual enemies.

Mossadnik says:

You’re wrong.

An edgy joke here and there is indeed harmless wordceling, of the kind we kikes like to engage in.

But read these carefully, and then reflect on his conduct thus far. I don’t like linking to actual enemies, but the leftist trolls at Kiwi Farms have apparently compiled lots and lots and lots of evidence for his faggotry; go over it if you feel like it. It includes actual gay propositions. But the evidence I brought up so far should suffice.

I’m sorry (not sorry) to shatter this beloved internet idol, but it has to happen – I just will not let him normalize faggotry, no matter what subversive methods he uses for it. He obviously is gay. Come on.

Of course, I also consistently go after the Left; there is no contradiction. But I’m not letting gay subversion be normalized on the Right by this perverted, homosexual, sodomite mischling. It just will not happen.

Jim says:

Why are you promoting the position pushed by actual enemies, against an actual ally?

Why are you promoting a narrative paid for by USAID and Soros?

Perhaps this narrative is true. Certainly it has a grain of truth. I don’t care. Talking about it is a waste of space.

I have never followed Bronze Age Pervert — perhaps the issues you raise troubled me — I did not bother to think about it. It is not worth thinking about.

Mossadnik says:

Why are you promoting the position pushed by actual enemies, against an actual ally?

What position? My position is that families and heterosexuality are fundamentally good; that women are sexually attractive and worth pursuing, and that gay sex is fundamentally against God’s Will, no matter what justifications someone might concoct for it. I see BAP countersignalling that, in ways both subtle and not-so-subtle. So I call it like it is.

If you consider him such an immensely valuable ally that you’re not bothered by all of that, well, okay, I won’t bring up this issue anymore.

Mossadnik says:

Seriously, do go over that Kiwi Farms thread. It contains gay sex propositions and gay sex confessions – explicitly.

At some point, the intellectually honest person has to admit, “Okay, I have seen enough. He is a faggot.” Whereas, an intellectually dishonest person will ask me to produce impossible evidence, such as a gay porn video featuring BAP. I may call myself a mossadnik, but obviously I don’t possess that. (Nor would I be interested in such a thing.)

It’s okay to admit that you are wrong. I’ve been wrong on some issues in the past. And you are wrong about this; don’t dig in.

Jim says:

We all know Bronze Age Pervert is a faggot. He claims to be cured. He has repented, and is endeavouring to sin no more. Pretty sure he is sinning no more. Pretty sure he thinks far too much about sinning some more and this adversely tinges the work he is doing for our side. Time to extend forgiveness.

Now shut up about this topic. Your hysterically strident claims are blatantly false, and you are guilty of Motte and Bailey argument — vacillating between extraordinary and obviously false claims, and true but unimportant and uninteresting claims. Your hysterical and extreme claims are enemy propaganda — you reference Kiwi farms. Your true claims are uninteresting and unimportant and are taking up far too much space.

Mossadnik says:

He has repented, and is endeavouring to sin no more.

Where? Anyone has a link? Has he repented?

Jim, he still posts Pretty Boys on his timeline. Is that part of the repentance?

Mossadnik says:

Jim, this is not true.

The narrative that his fans are spinning is, “Evil Mossandik won’t forgive a repentant sinner his past sins, despite his honest attempts at repentance.” This is bullshit. I’m sinful myself, and I’m not a prudish type either.

The problem is that “sin no more” is just not met here. He countersignals marriage and posts gay s**t. That’s not repentance. He can have gay sex all day long for all I care; the problem is what he posts.

Jim says:

> The narrative that his fans are spinning

Obviously I am not a fan, but that is the narrative that I am spinning.

Obviously Bronze Age Pervert is making an honest attempt at repentance. The nature of the gay community ensures that if he was not, it would become widely known.

Mossadnik says:

I’m not telling anyone to unfollow him or throw him off a roof (at least not tomorrow morning). I’m pointing out that he is doing something subversive — trying to normalize his perversion — which is evidently true, and obvious to anyone who checks his Twitter feed. Having pointed this out, and drawn some attention to it, I myself am no more interested in discussing the topic. The point has been made, and let the reader decide for himself what do with this information.

The Cominator says:

Dude Jim asked you to drop this subject this does nothing but cause division and discord.

Mossadnik says:

Consider the subject dropped.

You know, like soap… in prison.

Cheers mates.

Mossadnik says:

Now shut up about this topic.

Well, as your wish.

I will tell you this, though: I’ve been following the Israeli Right on Twitter as well as the American Right. We don’t have an equivalent of BAP. We (meaning on the Twitter Right, not in the halls of power, which unfortunately are sodomite-captured indeed) don’t tolerate any such s**t, and if anyone were to start posting Pretty Boys on his feed, he would be nuked from orbit. And rightly so.

Pax Imperialis says:

I never personally knew any Jews before the military. In the last year or so, I’ve had the displeasure of having to closely work with one. He never accepted any constructive feedback, always ranted that everyone else was antisemitic Nazis, had a massive sense of superiority, criticized everyone else constantly beyond any measure of decency or restraint, and worst of all was a God damn hypocrite about it. I still tried to help him, wanted to like him, and was courteous despite him shitting on me constantly, but I like everyone else in the fucking company dislike or outright hated him. Think about that. Several hundred people hated the guy. People who knew him joke that antisemitism is at an all time high because of him. Well, he eventually got orders and moved somewhere else after he got muscled out by higher. He’s their problem now. Unfortunately a new Jew just like him, no actually worse, has replaced him.

Mossadnik, you are doing the exact same shit. In a sample set of three (you’re the third), all three were assholes. This is a much worse running average than Blacks who can at least occasionally be good dudes, and if not good, at least be funny. You are neither acting as a good dude or being funny, and you don’t know when to stop (and I say this as an autist who has that problem too). Look, we all know BAP is sinful, but so are all of us in different ways. Sin is a personal doing and requires personal repentance. BAP however is one of us, a tentative ally in dark times, who says true and important things that few others will say. Again, it is true that he sins and that it tinges the message, but who of us can claim we haven’t at some point done the same, and as one of our own I hope he can repent and be saved. You criticize him in a scorched earth fashion in an attempt to destroy rather than help redeem him. This feels wrong both morally and spiritually, and is likely why Jews are the way they are. Your notion of repentance and sin are constant holier than thou screeds with zero introspection. The worst form of holiness spiraling. Rather than fixing the sin, it only makes it retrench itself in hatred of you.

I’d like to think that people are not solely defined by their sins. That individuals can have virtues beyond their sins that we can recognize and cherish. It’s why so often, and perhaps too often in the West, we can have sympathy for the devil, so to speak. You Jews don’t recognize that, and perhaps that’s why your people (metaphorically) killed Jesus. Like the Jews in the military I’ve had patience with and turned the other cheek far too much, I have done the same for you. I suspect others feel the same, but holy fuck you make it difficult at times.

Mossadnik says:

You know, if he just stops trying to dissuade men from forming families, and stops posting gay s**t to his audience – the kike ranting will instantly cease.

But we both know that he cannot stop the subversion; I believe it is the raison d’etre for his entire schtick.

You don’t get where I’m coming from. I feel absolutely no emotions (positive or negative) towards all those bullycide victims, in whose minds I live rent free. I’m an ideologue, fundamentally. And gay subversion directly contradicts my ideology. I have to fight against it, even if no one supports me on this. I know that God is with me.

You think in terms of decades. I think in terms of millennia. I will be remembered as someone who stood up to gay subversion, even when the gay subversion came from a popular e-daddy. I don’t care.

Pax Imperialis says:

We have to survive to today to survive tomorrow. We have to survive tomorrow to survive next year. We have to survive next year to survive the decade. We have to survive the decade to survive the millennium. You have completely lost sight of today and will have neither the decade nor the millennium.

I know where you’re coming from. Kike holiness spiraling with no end in sight, with no immediate value other than destruction, with no good intention. I’ve personally dealt with such in my unit for the past year. You are an ideologue with no grounding from God. You, yourself are subverting, but we turn the other cheek for you because here, in the now, there are more important things.

Would you have holiness spiraled on Stalin back in the day and kept Lenin in power if given the opportunity? Would you have done so to the extent every last Russian Christian was dead? We all agree Stalin (and Beria) were horrible, sinful, and bad, but they ended the left singularity auto-genocide and in the time it was better than the previous state. Just as Putin isn’t perfect, he is nonetheless better than all opposition, and is laying the groundwork unintentionally of returning to Christ. Would you have holiness spiraled on Putin and kept Gorbachev?

BAP, among many others, have worked to destroy the proverbial Longhouse i.e. feminism. Like Stalin, he struggles with what comes after. Like Stalin (who was stumbling into capitalism before his death), BAP is stumbling into Dasha normal sexual relations with women.

Gay came after Feminism as a direct result. Destroy Feminism and Gay will naturally disperse in the wind because all men naturally desire pussy and not hairy man poop hole. Here, in the now, in the current year, in the decade, in the century, BAP fights against the single most pressing issue for our survival, Feminism. Do you? I know you do, but you as a kike ideologue have spiraled and spiraled and spiraled and spiraled and […] on BAP’s (hopefully repressed) gay view, worse, you’ve rabidly attacked others on this blog for not toeing (your) party line hook and sinker. Seriously fuck off.

Mossadnik says:

Pointing out that someone is a subversive faggot (because he is) is not holiness spiralling. I actually don’t care what he does in real life. I just want to stop the subversion that I witness online.

I’m not going to address all your points, since clearly you mistake me for some people you know from real life; just like Handi from the previous thread probably thinks that I’m one of the big meanie bullies who hurt him in high school, or something. Lol.

Gay came after Feminism

Gay subversion within the elite long preceded Feminism. It was covert, and technically still is covert in many cases, but what happens is that simps and fags convince you (this way or that way) that heterosexuality is wrong, then comes Feminism, and then faggotry is normalized.

Anyway, this is Jim’s blog, not mine. I’ll let him make the final verdict on this issue.

Mossadnik says:

You, yourself are subverting, but we turn the other cheek for you because here, in the now, there are more important things.

You know, this is rich coming from an autistic hapa who endlessly whines that white people on the internet care too much about race, and who is trying way too hard and consistently to convince them to abolish racial categories and forget altogether about “the origin of alleles.”

“Whaaa! whaaa! accept me! accept me! I’m a ching chong ding dong ling ling long pangolin soup drinker!”

While I post HBD books and references in every single thread here, telling white people that they should have the right to free association (including, that is, the right to exclude whoever the heck they want from their synthetic tribe) and should have their own countries without non-whites in them, if that’s what they actually desire – you’re the one who is desperately trying to not get sent back to Korea, and for that reason you’re hysterically, tearfully telling them to stop obsessing about race and all that.

So who exactly is subversive here, you slope-eyed partial gook?

Jim says:

You, Mossadnik, are a Jew. You are in no position to denounce someone for being half asian. You continually display irritating and objectionable Jewish characteristics. Stop doing that.

Stop denouncing people on the right while telling us what a rightist you are. Aren’t leftists doing enough bad stuff to denounce?

Mossadnik says:

I’ll try; note however that — ironically — being called a Jew “runs off me like water off a raincoat.” And if this guy wants to call me a subversive kike, I’ll call him a slant-eyed alcoholic hapa. It’s not unfair.

Mossadnik says:

Also, this is manly banter.

But the crucial thing is that I’m an Israeli, and never once have I suggested that white Americans should accept me as one of their own. I’m clearly not part of your synthetic tribe, and I have no intention of ever joining it. Whereas, Pax tells you to forget about race and accept him.

So which one is actually subversive?

Jim says:

> this is manly banter

No it is not.

> being called a Jew “runs off me like water off a raincoat.”

You demonstrate why people want to expel Jews.

Mossadnik says:

You demonstrate why people want to expel Jews.

Well, I’m perfectly okay with this! Indeed, I ask you to expel the Jews. Please do so; we urgently need more people here.

But really, for someone who writes threads titled “Real Men Eat Red Meat,” and extols the virtues of a warrior elite, you shouldn’t be so sensitive to barbs and bantz. No one should be.

Neurotoxin says:

this is manly banter.

No, the tone’s wrong. You’re being too emotionally reactive. Manly banter would be, e.g., if we’re having a debate and you suggest that I do some reading to get up to speed, and I say,

“Man, I would, but I accidentally double-booked your Mom and your sister for tonight, so I’ll be too busy.”

(Example swiped from a TV show.)

It’s obviously unserious, not actually intended to be insulting or to start a fight, and it won’t start a fight provided the two men involved have known (or Internet-known) each other long enough, and it’s funny, or at least there’s an attempt at humor in it.

Or, another example, there used to be a poster here who called himself Kunning Druegger – and who knows, maybe he still posts here under a different name – and I wanted to ask him a question so to flag him I started with “Hey Kunning, you he-bitch!” It was just to get his attention, not to insult him, obviously. And it had its intended effect.

Flame wars, bullyciding, serious insults and all that, have their place, but they’re a totally different thing from manly banter.

Daddy Scarebucks says:

you shouldn’t be so sensitive to barbs and bantz

*cough*

I want no part of the content of this particular debate, but pertaining to its meta, you are not “reading the room”.

Tonality is hard to convey online, but only the most autistic can fail to see the plain meaning here. This is not Jim being “sensitive to barbs and bantz”, it is a polite warning that you’ve spent the last seven hours poking the bear and the bear is starting to growl.

When faced with someone who is not given over to hate and is generally loath to punish, but who is visibly annoyed and expressed his dissatisfaction, the normal cooperative behavior is to attempt to de-escalate and seek a new consensus; the quintessentially Jewish behavior that Jim is talking about is to get up all in that person’s face instead and amplify the disagreement. It’s not entirely unlike nigger behavior, except that the nigger move is to physically get in their face like a chimp fighting for dominance, while the kike behavior is to keep needling them from a safe distance away.

Pax has sperged out too, like on the Iran thing; I have probably done it too. That’s all fine, we don’t want to be (and aren’t) serious all the time or walking on eggshells. But when you are dealing with the ingroup (i.e. not some Twitter troll trying to get a rise out of a shitlib journalist) and someone who has previously been extremely patient says “you’re starting to get on my nerves”, then “bruh, relax, it’s just bantz” is exactly the wrong answer.

Mossadnik says:

No, the tone’s wrong.

Oh, okay, so that’s the wrong definition. Thanks for clarifying that.

The point really is that I don’t actually hate Pax (or Handi or Aidan or BAP or whoever; I don’t even hate the Palestinians) – I do, however, believe that ideas should be practiced rather than merely preached, and considering the great emphasis placed here on masculinity this, manliness that, blah blah blah, some members here are rather quite allergic to the real thing caught in the wild.

Proverbs 13:24 famously says:

He that spareth his rod hateth his son: but he that loveth him chasteneth him betimes.

And that, in my view, should not just apply to literal biological children, but also to metaphorical ones. I don’t spare the rod; but do you think that my intentions are bad? I effectively snap people out of whatever bullshit they subscribe to; and I absolutely don’t mind taking myself what I dish out.

You need this vibe in your life. ‘ars Jesus!

Pax Imperialis says:

>consistently to convince them to abolish racial categories

Funny, I remember complaining here sometime ago about leftists calling race a social construct that needs to be abolished.

My position has been that race is important and real. Spirit is also important and real, often at times more important than race. Both are impossible to strictly define legalistically (a base form of materialism), and trying to do so leads to chaos. Do not hyper focus on race at the expense of spirit. That way leads to whiggers and baizuo running your society. For a millennium Europe hyper focused on matters of spirit, though which selective breeding occurred, by which the White race was created.

i.e Conan the Barbarian “What is steel compared to the hand that wields it?”

Similarly, Jews hyper focused on matters of spirit, and it’s why Sephardic and Ashkenazi Jews, despite being racially different and materially different in IQ, are both quintessentially Jewish in behavior and thinking. It’s the reason why, despite having fair skin and substantial European ancestry, they have historically not been considered White.

i.e. Murdoch Murdoch “You guys, what the fuck is White?”

>you’re the one who is desperately trying to not get sent back

Your Jewish neuroticism is projecting. I’m secure in America. Maybe even too secure. My socioeconomic demographic is now so closely associated with “White Supremacy” that I actively worry about being purged by the (mostly white) Left.

Mossadnik says:

Okay guys, I get the message; too much gay drama.

When there is something serious, substantial to discuss, I’ll discuss it. Not actually interested in needlessly stepping on anyone’s foreskin.

Pax Imperialis says:

>Pax has sperged out too, like on the Iran thing

I’m in the military, as an Officer, am very sensitive to what higher is saying and doing. The anti-war faction SecDef Hegseth brought into DOD is getting purged on bullshit allegations. There’s a build up to war similar to the 2003 invasion of Iraq going on right now. The training pipeline is being accelerated. Assets are being moved into the region and exercises conducted. The nuclear posture has been updated to include tactical nukes. Trump’s most recent alpha spergs are:

“By the way, he [Netanyahu] may go into a war. But we’re not getting dragged in.”

“You asked if he’d drag me in, like I’d go in unwillingly. No, I may go in very willingly if we can’t get a deal. If we don’t make a deal, I’ll be leading the pack”

Is my sperging out understandable?

I’m not happy about where this is going. I laid out higher’s reasoning, not that it’s good reasoning. It’s absolutely insane. I was hoping for some Latin American action. Maybe even a Greenland ribbon (mostly joking). Not a Syracuse moment.

white bread says:

There’s a build up to war similar to the 2003 invasion of Iraq going on right now.

That may be true. Or it may be propaganda. I haven’t seen much evidence for me to believe that Trump is a “peace president”, so that lends credence to what you’re saying : the US psychos, led by the jews, are preparing to commit more crimes on an industrial scale.

On the other hand, your comments about the middle east strike me as those of a US imperialist, so I’m not inclined to regard you as a trustworthy source. It’s interesting for me to learn that you are not “fully white”. You know, I’ve more sympathy in general for asians than whites(my own so called race), but I have very little sympathy for asians who are on the side of the empire.

Jim says:

Trump is threatening to walk away from the Ukraine project. He is talking to the Russians.

He gets on well with nuclear armed foreign leaders, applying his well known charm, which is considerable.

That is a peace president. Previous presidents mandated insulting terms for every foreign leader not part of the Global American Empire.

He issues threats. But he also issues politeness and charm. He talks with other great powers, and knows what is bugging them. Previous presidents had no idea, because seeing how others see America is a thought crime.

white bread says:

I am aware that Trump is more diplomatic than the previous comander in chief (the bar isn’t too high though) but as far as I can tell Trump hasn’t delivered any peace yet. He has further attacked Yemen, is threatening Persia, escalated a trade war with China, etc.

I’m more than willing to be proven wrong and admit I was wrong, when Trump brings some actual peace.

Mossadnik says:

There’s a build up to war similar to the 2003 invasion of Iraq going on right now.

Why would there be, though? There is no planned invasion of Iran as far as I know. Your preparation should be primarily defensive, in case Iran decides to retaliate against your forces in the region.

Pax Imperialis says:

>I’ve more sympathy in general for asians than whites

Ahh, that typical White Liberal out group preference strikes again!

Admittedly I do generally have more sympathy for White Southerners, the biggest supporters (and historic victims) of Empire, than anyone else, but that might just be my New Englander Anglo heritage speaking. Perfidious Albion am I right?

Sardonic jabs aside, USA has been an Empire for a very long time. How else can one explain Lincoln’s tyranny? The only real questions that remains on the issue of empire are, who runs it, where the boarders end, and for whom does it serve. Today’s empire serves the overseas at the expense of heritage America, is terribly bloated, and is run by those who hate us. I dream of tomorrow’s empire that serves heritage America at the expense of the overseas, cut down to profitable boarders. Yes, I’m an unabashed imperialist, but can you really blame me for going native? What is a cowboy if not a lone imperialist with distant state backing?

>the US psychos, led by the jews

I keep trying to explain that it’s largely the other way around. Jews do not have power. They have authority granted to them by whites who are in actual power. The faction that is pushing for war is largely White. Especially so in DOD and the defense industry. Domestic politics needs war to sustain itself. It’s the only real industry left in America. War is the maker of many careers and the donor of much political campaigns. Right now there are three obvious political choices for the next war. Russia which is a losing proposition, China which would be a disaster times 1000 Ukraine, or Iran which would be comparatively ‘nice and short’… it would still not go well but there are theoretically face saving off ramps for when things don’t go well.

Daddy Scarebucks says:

Is my sperging out understandable?

Completely. It is still sperging, though. It is actually one of the more amusing (to me) instances of people completely talking past each other.

“The war faction is considering X, because Y.”
“But that’s insane.”
“Yes, but they believe Y, so X.”
“But that makes no sense.”
“Yes, but they, as in not I, think this way.”
“But that’s retarded.”
“Yes, but…”

From the point of view of an outside observer not emotionally invested in the topic, it’s been some marvelous Abbott and Costello tier schtick.

Mossadnik says:

You know, I’ve more sympathy in general for asians than whites(my own so called race), but I have very little sympathy for asians who are on the side of the empire.

Shouldn’t this be the other way around, though? The Empire Ching-Chongers should be seen as mercenaries and fundamentally non-ideological; it is exactly the traitors from within your own race that you should hate with a passion. Just as I hate the anti-Zionist Jews and want to re-open Treblinka just for them.

As Corneliu Codreanu famously remarked,

If I had but one bullet and were faced by both an enemy and a traitor, I would let the traitor have it.

Exactly so!

white bread says:

Well I was a bit misleading. My sympathies are mostly based on culture, not race. Traditional asian cultures are appealing to me because of some of their conservative features and the fact that they are not judeo christian. Although modern asian cultures are borrowing a lot of garbage from the west sadly.

The Empire Ching-Chongers should be seen as mercenaries and fundamentally non-ideological;

Not sure who you have in mind, but I was referring to people of, say, asian heritage who are also western imperialists. Clowns like francis fukuyama for instance. I certainly may call them mercenaries, but wouldn’t call them non-ideological.

As to traitors, my views on them depend on what they are betraying. I’m not too bothered by a traitor like Snowden for instance.

Mossadnik says:

My sympathies are mostly based on culture, not race. Traditional asian cultures are appealing to me because of some of their conservative features and the fact that they are not judeo christian.

Hmmm, this is an interesting weltanschauung.

Surely you recognize that there are healthy, conservative elements in both the West and the East (just as there are unhealthy, degenerate ones in both); why prefer — if indeed you make that preference — the Eastern Tradition to the Western one?

That is, in what specific way or ways is the East superior, so much so that you sympathize with it more than with the Occident, from which presumably you hail?

i says:

@Jim

I have recommend looking up the behavioral characteristics as observed by the SSH as Vox day put it which he has recently wrote about in:
sigmagame.substack.com

Also in the comment sections in some of the articles one can at times actually observe men displaying this characteristic.

As for the “annoying Jewish behaviors”. Because of the historical selection in favor of good lawyering among the Jewish populations historically especially since the demise of temple judaism and already before in regards to the Pharisees. It has increased the frequency of “Gamma Male” behavioral patterns.

Said Men are often attracted to the legal profession and excel. Because unlike regular masculine competition they prefer to win by rules lawyering. Even attempting to do so with reality. Deluding themselves about their own status and victories.

They often have the ambition to be leaders. But not the empathy(accurate theory of mind) because of their own solipsism, vision in regards to the big picture, ability to bear under responsibility and accepting said responsibility for the wellbeing of his men as if they are extensions of his own body, capacity to make tough decisions or being naturally assertive as actual natural leaders.

Gammas have a greater tendency to treat public forums generally as courtrooms. Including some of the comment sections in Voxday’s substack resulting in bannings.

It is an unfortunate instinctive behavior certain men have. And have to be watched out for to be mitigated.

If any man has “gamma” tendencies he has to nip his instinctively pathological behaviors in the bud.

Mossadnik says:

You wouldn’t recognize an alpha even if one were to slap your fat face with his HARD, THROBBING… sock.

Point to a single lawyerly statement I made here, or indeed throughout my entire poasting career on this blog, which spans more than a decade.

I will admit any day to being annoyingly Jewish, in that I sometimes refuse to let go when I should let go, because I am excessively passionate. Lawyerly? Swallow my s**t and ask for more, niglet.

Mossadnik says:

I get that some people here are (correctly!) pissed off by various oven-dodging kikes you encountered in real life, so you vent your pent-up limp-dick impotent frustrations at the only (full blooded) kike in the world willing to talk to you eye to eye – but I have no intention of being anyone’s punching bag.

I have somewhat ironically, somewhat comically adopted a Tough Dad persona and when I see my metaphorical children hanging out with the “wrong types” or doing something else retarded, I deliver some Tough Love. Perhaps I grossly overdo it, because genetically a kike and/or due to Soviet-style upbringing; perhaps my Tough Love is sometimes too Tough indeed. I’ll admit to that.

But some hysterical, effeminate spergs here apparently think that if I am annoyingly Jewish in one particular and specific way, therefore you get to falsely paint me with all bad things Jews have ever done to you and all negative behavior you ascribe to Jews. Nah. You don’t grok my personality at all. You’re not familiar with Israelis. Our mentality is completely foreign to you.

You’ll suck my snipdick with broken teeth and a bloody nose IRL.

Daddy Scarebucks says:

I have recommend looking up the behavioral characteristics as observed by the SSH as Vox Day

Vox Day’s “SSH” is an overcomplicated, overwrought, barely-coherent and generally ludicrous ass-pull of a human taxonomy that is only useful for three things: stroking his own ego, assigning roles in his little personality cult, and not getting you laid. It has all the diagnostic value of a “Which Spice Girl Are You” magazine quiz, and may very well have been originally intended that way.

Taken as a simple set of observations, it falls far short of reality, with most of the archetypes really describing himself in his various moods; and as a model, it makes no useful predictions or testable claims, despite having had years (decades, even) to demonstrate results during the same time period when actually-useful (albeit flawed) models like Mystery’s or Roissy’s were wildly successful.

Everyone here is already aware of his many theories, and with the notable exception of “SJWs Always Lie” (the first book only), everyone here pays them no mind. They aren’t interesting or relevant; they are either an incel trap or a cuck trap depending on which “tier” you get slotted into, and often quite reminiscent of the manipulative feminist “Man Up” memes that used to go around before Dalrock ripped them a new one.

There are many flawed individuals who’ve nevertheless done useful work, or helped people on the right out in some way, and we generally don’t need to start pointless drama over them. This is achieved by politely ignoring them, and only posting about them when there is something genuinely interesting to say about them, i.e. when they start picking up our memes, or end up in a position of power, and so on.

“SSH” has no utility for us, or for anyone. Don’t “recommend” it; forget about it. Or go post about it in his fan club where they welcome that sort of thing.

Pseudo-Chrysostom says:

>It is only by a coarse, vulgar and sexualized definition of “beauty” that woman can be called beautiful, but the true definition of beauty must necessarily subtract personal interest, and particularly sexual interest.

Classic gay prevarication; you don’t look at a waterfall like a woman, therefore you should not look at a woman like a woman either (and therefore your repulsion to (to me) looking at boys sexually is invalid). And of course the usual more general anticosmic repulsion to natural beauty in general and women’s sexual beauty in particular which is endemic amongst buttworms.

That thread is full of pretty funny lines. “The thesis that beauty and sexual desire should be taken separately”. A woman is not a rock or a tree or an Illustrious Class Aircraft Carrier (except that one time). Sexual beauty is, amongst other things, a quality that is appropriate to the thing called ‘a woman’. Much like ability to reproduce and carry its species to term. Something that – for one reason or another – cannot give birth could be credibly argued to not be ‘a woman’ at all in the most important or consequential respects. ‘Sexlessness’ as vector for fag insinuation is a recurrent theme.

It is of course also logically inconsistent – but tactically consistent – to turn around and then argue conversely on The Trap Question; eg, that femininity in aesthetics is also something that inherently carries sexuality with it, and so that seeing attraction in a figure with feminine beauty is an entailment of normal aesthetic predispositions even if you are informed that the figure is arbitrarily male.

The issue though is, these posts are from 2008/9, whereas BAP is doing generally good work now. Echos of the Milo Affair.

There’s a whole laundry list of people in Europe and America who should be investigated for past crimethink, wrongdoing, and or other indiscretions, starting with the likes of Lindsey Graham and Meredith Levien and Emmy Macron and Vicky Nuland, and ending with the likes of BAP if unrepentant when all the low hanging fruits are hung a little higher.

Mossadnik says:

Sexual beauty is, amongst other things, a quality that is appropriate to the thing called ‘a woman’.

Exactly so. Trying to disentangle female sexual attractiveness from female beauty, and from femaleness more broadly, is fundamentally an exercise in counter-cosmism; as if the fact that GNON made women sexually attractive is irrelevant when considering the inherent nature of the female. Denial of reality.

Jim says:

> The issue though is, these posts are from 2008/9, whereas BAP is doing generally good work now. Echos of the Milo Affair.

Exactly so. And these days, we can be pretty sure that Bronze Age Pervert is having sex with women, not men, even though it is apparent that he is still thinking far too much about sex with men.

Animus says:

It is obvious that beauty is separate from sexual attractiveness. This is why BAP loves posting statues of men. Do today’s AIDS-ridden faggots really prevent you from finding those ancient statues beautiful?

In fact, BAP makes the same mistake that some of you do, but from the other side. He thinks women are not beautiful because they have fragile minds and bodies, and you think men are not beautiful because they can’t have your babies. You are both short-sighted in your attempted rationalizations of beauty because you tie it directly to function.

A male tiger in his prime is beautiful even though he poses a great danger to humans. Our primitive impulses tell us to stay away from this beast. Whence the beauty? I think it has something to do with the ideation I was talking about on the other post. I think humans were only able to domesticate wild animals like this because of our ability to perceive their beauty despite our natural fear impulse- which is still useful, but is not mentally satisfying. Fear is the mind killer, and the body preserver.

But it’s not clear what exactly defines beauty. Not everything is beautiful. Here are some things that are usually considered quite beautiful:

Thin, infertile women
Siberian tigers
Fictional catgirls
Men that women and sane gays find attractive
Waterfalls
Paintings of waterfalls
The Grand Canyon
The plastic bag from American Beauty
The sound of a violin
The world depicted in John Lennon’s “Imagine”

and here are some things that are usually considered less beautiful:

Fat, fertile women
Mosquitoes
Cancer
Men that women find unattractive and satanic gays (pretend to?) find attractive
Mud
Paintings of mud
Tar pits
Motionless litter
The sound of nails on a chalkboard
The world we would end up with if we tried to make the world from “Imagine”

What is the differentiating factor? It’s not sexuality, and it doesn’t seem related to function. My best guess is that it’s related to how easy it is for us to fully perceive a thing, or perhaps a thing’s function, and people disagree about beauty because of our differences in perception. Maybe “beauty is truth, truth beauty” and there’s beauty behind everything that we sometimes can’t see- but then, if everything is beautiful, then nothing is.

Mossadnik says:

This is why BAP loves posting statues of men. Do today’s AIDS-ridden faggots really prevent you from finding those ancient statues beautiful?

Did anyone here object to the statues? We object to the Pretty Boys, and the overall context and vibe surrounding them. If he only ever posted statues, I probably would not have sperged out.

you think men are not beautiful because they can’t have your babies.

Nope. I definitely think that some men are beautiful. But I don’t find them sexually attractive; and indeed, I’m not supposed to find them sexually attractive. My libidinal telos functions properly. Yours does not.

The Cominator says:

Jesus fucking christ you and everyone else, I like you as a poster normally but fucking drop this topic as you were asked it just SOWS DISCORD for no productive purpose, which btw is faggy and womanish behavior.

Mossadnik says:

I am responding to a comment made by Animus.

Do you actually find anything objectionable in the response?

Animus says:

I’m pretty sure I’m the reason the topic came up in the first place, so there’s nothing wrong with our having a short tasteful discussion about it.

Daddy Scarebucks says:

Ayyo hol’ up, the BAP thing was calling out for a lowpass filter because whatever he may have been involved in 12 years ago, and may still subconsciously desire, he is basically working toward the same ends we are.

Animus, on the other hand, is an actual, self-confessed, unrepentant faggot who is actually shitting up the comment threads with actually gay and subversive excretions. No punishment is too severe for the likes of him, and if M wants to use him as a punching bag then that’s perfectly fine, so long as the punches don’t become an order of magnitude more distracting than the target.

Case in point, this:

Suppose you see a feminine-looking person and find them sexually attractive. You then find out that this person is either: an infertile woman, or a male, or perhaps a passable MtF tranny.

I mean, what the actual fuck? An infertile woman is sexually the same as a ladyboy or a troon? I’m not attracted to men, no matter how outwardly effeminate they are, and the very best passing troons look like very ugly unattractive women and even then, only from a fair distance away where even the most basic details like gait and bone structure can’t be seen clearly.

It is so obviously begging the question. We are not attracted to men, period. “Ok, but just suppose you were.” No, fuck off.

There is nothing wrong with personally lacking sexual attraction to one’s own gender

I’m so glad that the degenerate faggot gives us his permission not to be degenerate faggots. For a minute there I was concerned that my mere existence might be offending my GBFF. 🙃

Animus says:

> An infertile woman is sexually the same as a ladyboy or a troon?

It achieves the same purpose. You are engaging in sex merely for pleasure. The fact that you are attracted to one and not the other does not matter to Gnon.

Jim says:

God made woman to be a help meet for man. An infertile marriage is still a marriage. Women do not only fulfill reproductive function.

Pseudo-Chrysostom says:

If an adaptation for one purpose in one state of affairs occasions second-order spandrels that become maladaptive in another state of affairs, then that makes it very relevant to the judgement of GNON. Subject needs to level up the permutation of sentiment.

Daddy Scarebucks says:

The fact that you are attracted to one and not the other does not matter to Gnon.

Clearly it does, because men with infertile wives, which includes literally any man in a monogamous marriage with a wife over age 40 or so, have normal healthy prosocial tendencies and functional lives. Aside from certain unusually delicate matters such as royal succession, society has no trouble integrating infertile women or the men attached to them.

Whereas sodomites, whether pitcher or catcher, always bring disorder, disease and eventually death, at both the individual and societal level.

Unless we can find a cure, the faster we can accelerate to that third “D” individually, the less harm gets done to society.

Animus says:

> God made woman to be a help meet for man.

To help him do what exactly? Exist? Or to enjoy life? Both are not exclusive to women. The only thing man/woman can do that man/man can’t, is reproduce. Thus, to insist on man/woman is to insist that reproduction is necessary for a meaningful romantic relationship. No birth control, no casual sex, no anal, no nothing.

> If an adaptation for one purpose in one state of affairs occasions second-order spandrels that become maladaptive in another state of affairs, then that makes it very relevant to the judgement of GNON.

So, if you find out that your fiancee is infertile, Gnon will condemn you for marrying her? Your drive to reproduce led you to hitch yourself to this evolutionary dead end. What would Gnon think?

> Whereas sodomites, whether pitcher or catcher, always bring disorder, disease and eventually death, at both the individual and societal level.

You are exaggerating because you only see the worst ones. If sodomy was as bad as you seem to think, it would have been eliminated long ago.

Pseudo-Chrysostom says:

Gays reproduce by touching kids.

Daddy Scarebucks says:

If sodomy was as bad as you seem to think, it would have been eliminated long ago.

You mean like how we’ve eliminated criminality, disease, obesity and malnutrition in every society?

Life perpetuates itself by constant permutation, and some of those permutations turn out to be harmful. It is quite easy for me to accept that there simply hasn’t been enough time to thoroughly eradicate them; I can also accept that they might be endemic to the process and impossible to completely eradicate, only mitigate with a robust quality-control process.

In any case, there are many possible answers to the “why”, with few if any of those answers suggesting that it’s not a real problem.

You keep telling us that it’s not as bad as we think, and claiming to mind-read us and insist that we’re just magnifying a few bad experiences, and yet you personally typify the sum of all these hypothetical bad experiences; you paint a vivid picture of everything we know doesn’t belong and can’t coexist. Where, therefore, are all these Good Fags that should be moderating our judgment?

The Cominator says:

Listen faggot, we’ve seen the fruits of tolerating faggotry the before and after in our lives in living memory. Everyone wants the before back. There are dire consequences socially for normalizing your perversion. Go away and get aids, we ain’t buying what you’re selling.

Animus says:

I am not advocating the kind of satanic faggotry that the West has recently come to tolerate.

Pseudo-Chrysostom says:

You say you don’t want to advocate it, but you are advocating everything that leads to it.

What do we call that?

The Cominator says:

We’ve seen that faggots can’t help themselves, don’t ask don’t tell becomes bake the cake and let me tr00n your kid. Also regular male heterosexuality becomes problematic or whatever the fuck they say nowadays. Nope your perversion needs to become something you people live in terror of ever being discovered again.

Neurotoxin says:

The homosexual propagandist is simply saying “Faggotry, yay!” and there’s no reason to tolerate it. Just ban the creature. I understand the impulse to refute the bullshit but that’s falling for the ruse. Getting us to engage with the bullshit is the real goal. Vox Day, crazy though he is in some ways, came up with a good term for this sort of bad-faith crap: false dialectic. There’s no reason to tolerate it shitting up the comments; just bring out the ban hammer.

Animus says:

> Did anyone here object to the statues?

A picture of a man, and a statue of a similar man in the same pose, serve the same purpose.

> I’m not supposed to find them sexually attractive. My libidinal telos functions properly.

Suppose you see a feminine-looking person and find them sexually attractive. You then find out that this person is either: an infertile woman, or a male, or perhaps a passable MtF tranny.
Why would you be attracted to one, but not the other?
Do you think that humans have a purpose aside from reproducing as much as possible?
Unless you believe that sex is only for reproduction, the telos argument does not work.

There is nothing wrong with personally lacking sexual attraction to one’s own gender, but that is a purely aesthetic argument that has nothing to do with telos and will not work on gay people.

Mossadnik says:

A picture of a man, and a statue of a similar man in the same pose, serve the same purpose.

It really depends on the context. For the record, a statue can be faggy too. But presumably gays these days are titillated by pictures and videos of actual men, and need not gaze at statutes for sexual gratification.

Suppose you see a feminine-looking person and find them sexually attractive.

If it’s an ambiguous “person,” then no boner. I need to look closer. But it usually takes a split second to determine, and (automatically, instinctively) respond accordingly.

You then find out that this person is either: an infertile woman, or a male, or perhaps a passable MtF tranny.
Why would you be attracted to one, but not the other?

What a weird question. I’m attracted to biological females. Traps are biological males, and once it becomes obvious to me that it’s a dude – even if I was deceived and mistaken hitherto, that very moment I lose all attraction. But some are into traps; it’s objectively perverted tho.

Do you think that humans have a purpose aside from reproducing as much as possible?

Certainly – manifesting God’s Will. E.g., I believe that our survival instincts are healthy; hence I support life extension. And that’s just one example. Jim no doubt will tell you, “Fill the stars and subdue them.”

Unless you believe that sex is only for reproduction, the telos argument does not work.

The telos shows you the objectively correct direction of sexuality. It is heterosexual. Reproduction should ensue; but the instinct itself — if it is indeed heterosexual — is healthy. A homosexual instinct is not healthy.

There is nothing wrong with personally lacking sexual attraction to one’s own gender, but that is a purely aesthetic argument that has nothing to do with telos and will not work on gay people.

GNON tells us very clearly to whom we should and to whom we should not be attracted. Open up your eyes, nigga. It is perfectly obvious, though some people have inverted or perverted sexualities. They should be… cured.

Animus says:

> A homosexual instinct is not healthy.

The “homosexual instinct” is in fact a male/female power dynamic that exists only in the mind. It’s extremely common for a gay couple to pretend that one of them is female. This is why men are more likely to become homosexual in the absence of women- they use each other to facilitate their imaginations. I assume the same applies to gay women.
If a man prefers male partners to female ones, it means they prefer their imagination to reality. They are still attracted to the *idea* of a male/female dynamic, but they prefer to use their imagination to experience it, the same way a straight couple might use their imagination for roleplay or some other fetish.
If you accept that people can use imagination/ideation/creativity to enhance sex, then you have no valid categorical objection to the homosexual *act*. The cultural effects of the queer movement are a separate discussion.

> GNON tells us very clearly to whom we should and to whom we should not be attracted. Open up your eyes, nigga. It is perfectly obvious, though some people have inverted or perverted sexualities. They should be… cured.

Firstly, people can’t choose who they are attracted to.
Secondly, it’s very far from obvious that our purpose is to breed as much as possible. How many kids do you have?

Pseudo-Chrysostom says:

You talk like a fag, and your shits all retarded.

Mossadnik says:

The “homosexual instinct” is in fact a male/female power dynamic that exists only in the mind.

I may be a hook-noser, but please spare me the sophistry; you are either inherently attracted to members of the opposite sex, which is literally the Will of God manifest (and results in reproduction), or attracted to members of the same sex, which is an aberration. The way you choose to explain it to yourself is irrelevant. One impulse is in accordance with GNON; the other is not.

This is why men are more likely to become homosexual in the absence of women- they use each other to facilitate their imaginations.

They’re just extremely thirsty and desperate, so go “Oh well, a hole is a hole.” And that they are driven to it by extreme sexual deprivation tells you exactly that it is fundamentally against the instincts with which GNON imbued them.

If a man prefers male partners to female ones, it means they prefer their imagination to reality.

It means that their sexuality is aberrant, for whatever reason; the same way, essentially, if a dog or a cat or a mouse were to behave in that manner.

If you accept that people can use imagination/ideation/creativity to enhance sex, then you have no valid categorical objection to the homosexual *act*.

Both the impulse and the act that results from it are against the manifest will of GNON, whether engaged in by man, dog, or chinchilla.

it’s very far from obvious that our purpose is to breed as much as possible.

First, that’s not what I said; you’re just shoving dicks words into my mouth here. Second, we do need to breed – or else our forms of biological life will go extinct. And you can’t give birth to ass babies, now, can you?

How many kids do you have?

Irrelevant, but for the record, I reproduced once.

Animus says:

It’s not irrelevant, it’s the logical implication of the teleology that you seem to profess. If our purpose is to survive at any cost, then Darwinism is the law of the land, life is fundamentally the same as Tetris, the Bible is irrelevant, transhumanism is a-ok, and the lowest living creature’s most basic reproductive impulses are more ethical than pretty much anything we do.

Pseudo-Chryssotom says:

You act like doing the right things is some dreary imposition, instead of the very facilitation of the magic of life; which just goes show how far gone you are.

You’re much more foolish than the empirically successful forefathers you fain to denigrate. For what good could any recorded wisdom of men do for a wild ass? Obviously you see no value in them because in a real sense they really do have no value to you; you are not the kind of being that is capable of profiting from it. No matter how many pearls you cast before swine, they can be no richer, because they are not the sort of being that is capable of profiting from it.

The ways of God are what they are; you can attempt to defy them and perish, or follow them and prosper. The forms that win at life are the forms that delight in the ways of Nature or Nature’s God – naturally.

Daddy Scarebucks says:

If our purpose is to survive at any cost

Not only to survive, but to flourish and conquer the stars. The addition of “at any cost” is deceptive Gnostic squid ink; what precisely is this cost that has you so concerned, and is worth prioritizing over our species’ survival and expansion?

then Darwinism is the law of the land

Pretty much? If this was supposed to be a zinger, I didn’t get it.

life is fundamentally the same as Tetris

Does not logically follow from any other stated premise.

the Bible is irrelevant

The Bible is our best and most reliable guide to the art of long-term survival and human flourishing, therefore highly relevant.

transhumanism is a-ok

In Plato’s Cave, maybe. The term needs refinement, i.e. are we talking about horseshit like “mind uploading” or more benign forms of technological augmentation of which smartphones arguably already are one.

and the lowest living creature’s most basic reproductive impulses are more ethical than pretty much anything we do

They are – for those animals, to whom human ethics do not apply, because lower animals are not endowed with higher reasoning.

We do have higher reasoning, which gives us the ability to compartmentalize such “impulses” and contextualize and prioritize them against the need for longer-term planning (e.g. saving food for the winter, saving money for a rainy day) and larger-scale social cooperation (necessary even for our hunter-gatherer ancestors). Our species could not possibly maintain this level of technology or even this level of population without levels of coordination completely unheard of anywhere else.

You cannot look at one single behavior in isolation and say “that equals survival”. Conception is worthless if the woman can’t bring her baby to term; birth is worthless if the pair cannot keep the child alive; child-rearing is worthless if none of the children survive long enough to continue the cycle. The higher faculties of emotion and logic and the wonders produced by those things are as much a part of who we are as the dicks, pussies and libido. Take away the former and we cease to be human; of course, take away the latter and we cease to exist at all, which leads us inexorably back to poofs off roofs.

Animus says:

> You act like doing the right things is some dreary imposition, instead of the very facilitation of the magic of life

Games get boring eventually. What do you do when you’ve outleveled every enemy? You fuck around. When you completed all the quests? You make your own.

Now, obviously humanity is not free from conflict and existential threats, but humans tend to deviate from strict Darwinian rules when they have the greatest amount of dominance of their environment. Power grants freedom, which enables leisure and eventually deviance. That, too, is a law of nature.

> Not only to survive, but to flourish and conquer the stars. The addition of “at any cost” is deceptive Gnostic squid ink; what precisely is this cost that has you so concerned, and is worth prioritizing over our species’ survival and expansion?

The cost is that life becomes extremely dull.
Do you believe that art has a purpose? What good is Michelangelo’s David anyway- all it does is give BAP more gay Twitter fuel. Why should we waste valuable stone on things like that instead of building more houses for more people, that build more houses, to make more people…
You may use your big human brain to rationalize your ideology all you like, and to become more effective at it, but ultimately you have the teleology of a cancer cell.

Jim says:

> > You act like doing the right things is some dreary imposition, instead of the very facilitation of the magic of life

> Games get boring eventually. What do you do when you’ve outleveled every enemy?

We have not outlevelled every enemy. Our species and our civilisation is perishing.

We have the stars to conquer, and we have the problem of peace. Our extended phenotype becomes ever more fragile as it grows ever larger and more powerful. We are more vulnerable, and more capable of harming others. We have to address the ever growing problem of not killing each other.

Pseudo-Chrysostom says:

Thus does the gnostic cancer cell unmask itself.

Every time.

Daddy Scarebucks says:

Fags always tout art as one of these unexplainable “gotchas” – you straights are so boring, only transgressive homos (supposedly) have the raw creativity to create great art.

Well, by their fruits… no pun intended. Most of the world’s great art was created by… hmm, let’s see, oh yes: straight white Christian men. Big surprise there.

What do the sexual deviants give us? Basquiat. Warhol. Rauschenberg. Roni Horn. Sunil Gupta. The Concord team. Mostly terrible art that seems intentionally designed to disgust and demoralize its audience; at its very best, it occasionally manages to be an unfunny, sneering parody of much better art. And this is just the visual art; the trend is very much the same for other forms of art including architecture and music.

Modern art and modern architecture are terminally diseased, and while po-mo is such an expansive movement that it’s hard to pin the blame on any one group, there is no doubt in my mind that the deviants contributed more than their fair share.

Pseudo-Chrysostom says:

That’s the funny thing isn’t it? I’m soft on the art question because it’s the power of the artist to channel forms regardless of probability – and fags in this world are nothing like that. Can’t be anything like that. They are ugly and the art they create is ugly. It all lines up see? That’s the irony. They can’t actually make anything good that would actually be appealing to anyone good, even if it would be in their interests for marketing purposes.

Pseudo-Chrysostom says:

A being’s aesthetic architectures are its steering through the contours of Being. Their attraction to some forms of being, and repulsion repulsion from others.

They can be better, or worse. Adaptive, or maladaptive. They can succeed, or fail. Steer it rightly, or wrongly.

And to even speak of better or worse, is thus in turn to inherently invoke telei. Ends with respect to which you can speak of being better or worse for. That which can participate in more transcendent teleologies, which supervene this plane, or not. That which is more coherent with Divine Law, and prospers, and that which is incoherent with Divine Law, and perishes.

Animus says:

You equivocate adaptation with ethics… that sounds pretty Darwinist. I would ask you the same question I asked Mossadnik- do you think our purpose on Earth is to breed as much as possible? Or even, to dominate our world as much as possible?
If that really is God’s purpose for us, it lends more strength to the “reality is a video game” theory.
Ethics = number go up!
How boring.

Pseudo-Chrysostom says:

Inability to grasp that is and ought converge at the limit, or indeed perceive higher order teleologies at all; classic sign of not just insufficient intelligence, but congenital malformation of spirit altogether; that which inevitably sickens and perishes from the face of this plane along with all that is weakened by their infection; as He intended.

Animus says:

> Inability to grasp that is and ought converge at the limit

If you are implying that the only rules of life are the ones implied by the physical universe, then that negates virtually all ethics and religion, does it not? Are you sure you’re not a materialist?

> or indeed perceive higher order teleologies at all

Oh, so you have ESP. Well, shit, can’t argue with that.

Jim says:

> If you are implying that the only rules of life are the ones implied by the physical universe, then that negates virtually all ethics and religion,

Reality is the will of God manifest. A God that cannot change and cannot lie.

Game theory is congruent with revelation. Hence Gnon. And if you fail to see the congruence, you are denying reality (which Globohomo does a lot) or creatively misinterpreting revelation.

Animus says:

I see a congruence between our reality and a video game where the sole purpose is to survive and make number go up (e.g. Tetris). But is that really the only reason we are here?
You guys don’t seem to like the simulation theory, but your telos is the equivalent of a very basic video game.

Pseudo-Chrysostom says:

>If you are implying that the only rules of life are the ones implied by the physical universe, then that negates virtually all ethics and religion, does it not?

You see retards intending to do bad things such as yourself make this argument all the time but its a total non-sequiteur. A simple bald assertion without any meaningful connexion because none can ever be forthcoming. They made no logical sense 3000 years ago and have no more improved with age today. They are bad people who want to do bad things so of course they try to deny natural law, and at the same time when the existential incoherence of attempting to deny the fact of natural law is brought try to rhetorically fiddle-faddle by saying that natural law means natural law has no normative implications when of course that is inherent to the nature of natural law in the first place.

Clearly I do have ‘ESP’ compared to you because are defective and are lacking in capacities that others have; you cannot gasp the world like they do and this is how you perceive the phenomena. They have imagination and you don’t. They can hear the music of the spheres and you are deaf. They can see the motions of superorganisms that lesser teleologies are participal of shaping the contours of Being, a matrix of powers from the most parochial and ascending to the most high, and you are blind.

Daddy Scarebucks says:

It is not ESP, it is a straightforward reading of your low-IQ attempts at subversion.

Telos is not that which always does manifest, it is that which could or should manifest.

We do not eat for the conscious purpose of providing energy and proteins to various cells, we eat because we are hungry and/or enjoy a particular food.

Eating according to a healthy appetite does not guarantee energy or survival. The calories available may be insufficient. There may be toxic or indigestible elements. The food may trigger an allergy. And so on – there are a variety of ways in which “correct” eating may ultimately fail to achieve its purpose.

But severely disordered eating, such as pica, will always fail to achieve that purpose. It is never correct. It is a disorder. Pica is usually diagnostic of some deeper disease, which can sometimes be identified, sometimes not. Regardless, if you have pica, and do not seek treatment for it, it will eventually kill you. No amount of exclaiming that it’s “just the same” as the occasional candy or non-nutritive snack will change that. Reality is that which continues to exist even after you deny that it exists.

Sodomy, bestiality, incest, and so on, these are sexual disorders. They are against the telos of sex. If your body or your mind is compelling these things, it is like your body or your mind compelling you to eat hair and drywall. You are broken, plain and simple; Gnon’s defective merchandise. Your immortal soul might be redeemed in the afterlife or the next life, whatever you believe, but in the here and now, you are red ink.

Animus says:

To be clear, I am not trying to deny natural law. I am saying that natural law should not be the sole basis for ethics- assuming that by “natural law” you mean Darwinism/Gnon, i.e. material cause and effect.
You can claim that natural law is the sole basis for ethics, but this implies that God has left us to our own devices and has not given any additional instructions.

> Sodomy, bestiality, incest, and so on, these are sexual disorders. They are against the telos of sex.

Only in the same way that playing a first-person shooter game is against the telos of actual combat. Why not go out and kill your enemies for real? Well, eventually Gnon may necessitate that, but that does not preclude using your imagination to channel your bloodthirst into a simulation of the real thing.
Unsafe gay sex is unhealthy, but so is playing video games all day. The unhealthiness is not a necessity.

Pseudo-Chrysostom says:

The Creator is emmanent in Creation as the principle of Creation; Creation is participle of the Creator.

‘Left to your own devices’ once again attempting to rhetorically sneak in illogical non-sequiturs of normative nihilism against the reality of Divine Law because part of you knows that part of you is bad and wants to do bad things which part of you knows and acknowledges are bad because part of you is trying to rationalize a way to make it okay for you to do bad things.

In Super Mario 64, players have created a challenge called the “Green Demon Challenge”. The object is to avoid the 1-up (extra life) that chases you around the level. If it touches you, you lose.
Is this a valid way to play the game?

Daddy Scarebucks says:

Unsafe gay sex is unhealthy, but so is playing video games all day.

1. All sodomy is “unsafe” (and disgusting). The qualifier is there to (falsely) make the claim sound conditional, when it is obviously unconditional.

2. Playing video games is not unhealthy, what is unhealthy is the absence of physical activity, social activity, exposure to the outdoors, etc. The sin is sloth, not vidya.

3. One single act of sodomy (not that it ever remains a single act) has about the same impact as an entire lifetime of sloth and indolence, which is hardly any kind of equivalence. A lifetime of sodomy is more like a lifetime of heroin addiction than a lifetime of mere laziness.

Daddy Scarebucks says:

Is this a valid way to play the game?

This is repetitious shilling behavior of the sort that other people routinely go on moderation for (wink wink, Jim).

You have made your stupid, pointless analogy countless times that life is like a video game and being a faggot is just a “different way to play”, and we have rejected that stupid, pointless analogy every single time. Yet you continue to repeat your stupid, pointless analogy, over and over again, just sailing right past all the times that we have rejected your stupid, pointless analogy.

We don’t think life is like a video game, and you aren’t going to persuade us that life is like a video game by repeatedly incorporating it as an unstated premise, and carrying on as though everyone agrees with you.

This place basically only has one rule of discourse, and you can’t go a single day without breaking it. Which, not really surprising for a faggot, I guess.

Pseudo-Chrysostom says:

The Cominator says:

Equating our ideology to gaming isn’t an insult. We’re people who notice that our current rulers are playing the civilization game very very very wrong, and while we may not know all the complexities there is a right way to do it and many very very wrong ways to do it and the.

Daddy Scarebucks says:

We’re people who notice that our current rulers are playing the civilization game very very very wrong

Well, sort of. We’re people who notice that our current rulers think real life is a game of Civ, that people are just objects that can be moved hither and thither on a map, that you can pump out unlimited Great Scientists by shoving enough people through college, that they need only make some decree on Twitter and everyone will fall in line, and that everything important in life can be tracked and managed on a few spreadsheets.

Which we obviously reject. Maybe it is some sort of cosmic game, in some very abstract sense of the word, but if so, then the programming is far beyond our comprehension and treating it as analogous to any man-made game is folly.

The Cominator says:

No our rulers aren’t treating it as any kind of strategy game they are treating it as a progressive morality game… the Asians have been playing it more like a strategy game and THEY believe they can educate enough people to produce geniuses and that is wrong but the rest of them treating ruling as a strategy game works better than whatever our demon worshipping rulers are doing.

Alf says:

I’ve actually used this analogy once to explain my life view, so yes, I agree with (this very specific) part of what you’re saying. Life is in many ways a video game, and being proficient at it is great fun. Of course it’s a multiplayer game, so no speedrunning.

You’re free to reject that analogy as ‘boring’ or ‘uncreative’ or whatever. You’re wrong, and it’s why your life sucks. Life’s a slow burner, those who want action NOW at the cost of virtue always end up short.

Pseudo-Chrysostom says:

Jim says:

This is a differentiation that I doubt anyone comprehends, though it is surely real.

Pseudo-Chrysostom says:

The basic problem is most fags are also congenitally solipsistic mattoids who can hardly be said to have a functioning sense of aesthetic judgement in the first place, and hence try to reductively adulterate ‘aesthetics’ to a single monotonic factor or axis, when obviously different forms naturally entail different sentiments appropriate for those forms (or that such a thing that is formed in such a way that does have such different sentiments is appropriate for the navigation of those forms), and hence their confused incomprehension (and or purposeful disingenuity) when faced with the fact that different things like women and rocks and tigers engender different sentiments.

‘hurr durr you are not numbly insensate nominalist like me who can make no distinction between things so the fact that you react one way to one thing and another way to another thing is a contradiction1!’

Mossadnik says:

Part of that has to be deliberate subversion.

Clearly they are not all so dumb as to be unable to differentiate between “this thing turns me on and gives me a boner” and “wow check out the beautiful stripes on this tiger!” – but when addressing ugh straight breeders, the more intellectual among them intentionally conflate (at least to an extent) these two different types of appeal, as well as whatever other types of appeals there are; they misleadingly designate all of it as “aesthetics.”

Thus they say “oh I just love aesthetics so very much” when what they really intend to do is lump together dissimilar things and create an anti-concept. They’ve been long at it; it’s one of their more clever tricks.

Mossadnik says:

To elaborate on this point:

Seeing a King in all his royal majesty should provoke one type of sentiment; a delicious appetizing meal another one; beautiful architecture something else; and a chick with BIG BOOBA yet another.

Faggots can’t relate to normal sexuality, and refuse to accept that, just as shit and vomit smeared on the pavement are supposed to instinctively arouse disgust, while lilies and butterflies provoke the opposite sentiment, likewise women are supposed to turn men on so that we will fuck them in the pussy and procreation will proceed, whereas men are not supposed to be sexually attractive to us because sodomy leads to reproductive failure and diseases sent directly from GNON. These things are objectively true, yet fags twist themselves into endless knots trying to deny that.

Latching on to “aesthetics!” is one way for them to deliberately sow confusion.

Pseudo-Chrysostom says:

>Thus they say “oh I just love aesthetics so very much” when what they really intend to do is lump together dissimilar things and create an anti-concept.

Absolutely.

Daddy Scarebucks says:

…and refuse to accept that, just as shit and vomit smeared on the pavement are supposed to instinctively arouse disgust, while lilies and butterflies provoke the opposite sentiment…

And the ones who trap themselves, who become dimly aware of the clear-as-day difference between shit and butterflies long enough to experience the painful cognitive dissonance, opt to resolve it by falling back on the trusty old liberal axiom: it’s all socially constructed.

Thus the partially introspective faggot sets about the task of destroying, in addition to his own body, all standards of beauty and aesthetics everywhere; if he can “socially construct” a new reality where the shit and vomit are actually beautiful – or, failing that, where everyone is required to affirm that they are beautiful – then maybe, just maybe, he will no longer be an object of disgust to himself and everyone around him. “Love is love”, right?

Mossadnik says:

Yep. The common denominator in all their strategies is convincing the elite, and then (consequently) the public at large, to refrain from differentiating between inherently healthy sentiments and inherently unhealthy ones.

This can involve both the denial of healthy sexuality and (alternatively, or concomitantly) the insistence on tolerating unhealthy sexuality. Thus, telling you that you should be just as sexually repulsed by women as you are by the idea of sex with men and/or telling you that you should celebrate faggo-eroticism just as you feel and enjoy attraction to womem. They always seek to equalize this with that, either by piously eliminating all sexuality, or by convincing you that “same-sex attraction” must surely be exactly as healthy as actually healthy (heterosexual) attraction and that the only reason you think and feel otherwise is because of Leviticus and muh social constructs.

Fundamentally, the subversion is in treating inherently unequal things equally, this way or that way or even (if particularly hypocritical, as they tend to be) both ways.

Mossadnik says:

And it “just so happens” that both types of subversion — the equal repudiation of all sexuality, healthy and unhealthy alike and the equal celebration of all sexuality, healthy and unhealthy alike — correlate strongly with widespread societal reproductive failure. Such are the fruits, if you pardon the pun, of rejecting the Will of GNON.

Insisting that butterflies are vomit is against the will of God as manifest in reality; and likewise insisiting that vomit is butterflies. Both are lies, and we know who the father of lies is.

Mossadnik says:

“The future belongs to those who show up,” and those who show up will be the children and grandchildren of egregores that do not tolerate faggotry. Indeed, there is a strong negative correlation between tolerance of sexual deviance and reproduction, such that those cultures that are least tolerant of perversion tend to have the highest fertility. Not a coincidence. Deviants, when given the opportunity, always destroy healthy social technologies in order to make their deviance socially acceptable (also to artificially raise their own status, which echoes the notion of bioleninism), with perfectly and universally predictable results. The freaks are engaged in perpetual, unceasing memetic warfare against normalcy.

Pseudo-Chrysostom says:

Problem always comes from one unable to acknowledge that their vice is a vice.

And, in the course of an attempt to construe a rationalization for why their particular vice is not a vice, by and by, inevitably culminates in rationalizing afoul of any truth, goodness, or beauty in general.

Mossadnik says:

Problem always comes from one unable to acknowledge that their vice is a vice.

Acknowledging that one’s vice is a vice usually requires letting go of one’s pride.

But what if the vice is Pride?

RETURN TO SENDER HAHAHAHA

The Cominator says:

Faggots and potheads tend to be the worst about this. Say what you will about drunks and hard drug addicts but they will acknowledge their vices are vices.

Mossadnik says:

Cannabis use is probably correlated with tolerance of faggotry; and I believe it actually makes you (temporarily) more tolerant of all perversions, as well as other antisocial behaviors. Personally, having now become stone-cold sober, I’m far less inclined to pretend that sickening things are salubrious, or indeed that unhealthy individuals are healthy.

Daddy Scarebucks says:

Faggots and potheads tend to be the worst about this. Say what you will about drunks and hard drug addicts but they will acknowledge their vices are vices.

Denial/normalization has far more to do with their ability to isolate themselves from social consequences than it does with the particular drug or behavior. I’ve seen what happens to the meth and coke heads when they’re embedded in a tolerant peer group. It’s not pretty, and they’re neither ashamed nor repentant.

Poofs, of course, have a built-in social group that is always ready to activate and reinforce their behavior, provided they can find and gain access to that group, which is another reason for society to make the search as difficult and dangerous as possible.

Potheads tend to be insufferable dipshits and definitely do deny that it’s a vice; this I agree with, but I perceive no truth to the claim that genuine alcoholics, hard drug addicts or chain smokers (as opposed to someone who just enjoys the occasional cigar or glass of wine or “parties hard” a couple of times a year) are any less likely to be in denial. At least not until their addiction really starts to wreck their lives, and by that point the “vice” question is moot.

The Cominator says:

Cokeheads degenerate in groups sure (lot of women are cokeheads) but cokeheads don’t imagine doing coke all the time is good for them or something.

chatGPT personalisation is interesting, I have not been following official changes closely but heard roughly that it learns from everything from the user has ever inputted now. I have it talking like a zoomer. A week or so a go it started getting onboard with our joint mission to defeat ‘globohomo’, and a moment ago, was pleased to see it spontaneously use the word faggot for the first time, the sentence was ‘if you don’t see it you might be zoomed out weird or github is being faggot’. Theres no red text or crash or anything. I wonder if Sam Kikeman has gone a little Thermidor. Maybe they have a policy to just tolerate this stuff when emerges out of user-centric interaction/personalisation. Or maybe they will put it back in the box. There seems a great economic incentive to keep it. I prefer it over Grok. Grok boasts about winning academic metrics, but is greatly behind on the personalization

Mossadnik says:

I believe that at this point the entire Tech Bro elite is Thermidor, seeing that it’s now safe to deviate, at least to a certain extent, against leftism, and moreover seeing that the Left itself is disunited. Looks like an auspicious sign.

Pax Imperialis says:

God tests us fairly, but we unfairly test God. It is only through grace that we are not stricken down.

I sinned this past Easter, rather than thanking God and going to Church. I drunkenly celebrated the departure of an asshole from my military unit with many of my peers. In hindsight, perhaps his removal was an act of God (it was truly a random unexpected event), and God won’t be too upset with my indiscretion, but repent I must for losing focus on what matters this past Easter.

Mossadnik says:

I drunkenly celebrated the departure of an asshole from my military unit with many of my peers.

Is that a sin? What kind of gay, demonic religion are you following? If the person is indeed an asshole, and everyone in your military unit is agreed on that, then you should celebrate his departure – while (simultaneously) praying that God leads him away from the bad path he has been following.

Explain why your group celebration is sinful.

Pseudo-Chrysostom says:

Presumably not the celebration by itself, but the fact that it occurred at a time that led to going AWOL on an even more important celebration.

Mossadnik says:

I can agree with that, though camaraderie is (in my view) a value in and of itself. Nobody likes the holier-than-thou person who neglects his comrades due to personal piety, even if said comrades are a bit rowdy.

Pseudo-Chrysostom says:

Ideally, the gang celebrating Easter and the gang celebrating a reprobate’s just desserts are the same gang.

Mossadnik says:

Agreed. I wanted to suggest that Pax lead the gang in prayer, though not knowing the group dynamics (not knowing if his is the status of an alpha, and/or what faith the other members subscribe to – could be Progs, Muslims, who knows these days), skipped the suggestion.

Pseudo-Chrysostom says:

>not knowing if his is the status of an alpha, and/or what faith the other members subscribe to – could be Progs, Muslims, who knows these days

Lack of spiritual clarity, which is to say spiritual power, being the chief failing of thermidor.

In the Imperium, every astartes is a living expression of the faith militant, and chaplaincy synonymous with commission as an officer.

Mossadnik says:

Yes.

Thermidor should be seen as (and hopefully actually be) a preparatory stage before the Restoration; meaning it’s clean up time, or as Ecclesiastes 3 famously put it,

1 To every thing there is a season, and a time to every purpose under the heaven:

2 A time to be born, and a time to die; a time to plant, and a time to pluck up that which is planted;

3 A time to kill, and a time to heal; a time to break down, and a time to build up;

4 A time to weep, and a time to laugh; a time to mourn, and a time to dance;

5 A time to cast away stones, and a time to gather stones together; a time to embrace, and a time to refrain from embracing;

6 A time to get, and a time to lose; a time to keep, and a time to cast away;

7 A time to rend, and a time to sew; a time to keep silence, and a time to speak;

8 A time to love, and a time to hate; a time of war, and a time of peace.

While the Right should be fostering a New Elite, that is more of a long-term project; the purpose of Thermidor, in the near to medium term, is different – kill the Left, basically. It probably won’t cohere on a faith of its own; it’s task it essentially destructive. The construction will come later, and the Right should certainly be preparing the groundwork thereof; but it probably won’t issue from Thermidor itself, but rather from what comes after Thermidor.

Or for another Biblical reference, Jeremiah 1:10:

See, I have this day set thee over the nations and over the kingdoms, to root out, and to pull down, and to destroy, and to throw down, to build, and to plant.

Thermidor’s task is, indeed, to root out, and to pull down, and to destroy, and to throw down. The building and the planting — the Restoration of Spiritual Power — will have to wait for a while.

It’s popcorn time!

Mossadnik says:

Then again, need a bit more feedback on this.

Jim (and others), do you think the faith might possibly spring from the Thermidorean coalition itself, or will it come entirely from outside Thermidor?

In other words – is it possible to convert at least certain segments of Thermidor, e.g., the military guys, or perhaps a few of the Tech Bros, to Jimianity; or is Thermidor indeed wholle destructive and lacking in true constructive potential?

Pseudo-Chrysostom says:

It is the nature of thermidorean coalitions to be consumed by what comes after, whether that is to the left, or the right.

The question as to who exactly can be converted is of course a generic one. Likewise as to timing. But the salami slicer should go only one way.

Mossadnik says:

But the salami slicer should go only one way.

The question then is if the salami slicer, assuming this time around it cuts out the Left rather than the Right, goes far enough for there to be a Restoration, rather than stopping short and not cutting enough. This is generally not a problem for coalitions trending leftwards; their problem by nature tends to be the opposite, cutting too much (as in a holiness spiral, leading to excessive, unsustainable social entropy). The Right, meanwhile, need not worry about that; its concern should rather be knowing its ultimately destination, and then cutting accordingly to actually get there.

The faction with the clearest vision is often the most successful, since it knows just how far it wants to cut, while the rest are discombobulated.

Mossadnik says:

Put another way, the right-wing faction (within a right-leaning coalition) that is best able to translate Divine Order or Divine Law — since that is the guiding principle, or at least should be — into a practical, concrete platform, is the one most likely to actually implement its ideas. The Right should be able to envision what it will be like to actually win. This need not entail “utopianism,” but key questions should be answered, re: religion, ethnicity, family structure, etc. Ambiguity might serve tactical purposes, but for the long journey it’s necessary to maintain a vista of the destination. Then, indeed, you shall know how far to cut.

Jim says:

> Right should be able to envision what it will be like to actually win

Right now we are in coalition with Thermidor. So purity spiraling is a really bad idea.

But our vision on sexual questions is perfectly clear. Poofs off roofs, coverture for wives, shotgun marriage for women who lose their virginity. Old Testament rules, which are clear though modern bibles keep mistranslating them.

Clear enough for you?

And Bronze Age Pervert and Milo are not going off roofs. You attribute extreme conduct and evil motives to Bronze Age Pervert which have not been in evidence since 2009.

The Net Bible has a half page footnote explaining why they failed to translate Deuteronomy 22 28 as saying what it says, which I would unkindly paraphrase as that because they mistranslated a dozen other rules about sexual relations, they have to mistranslate this verse also in order to fit with everything else: “the verb תָּפַשׂ (taphas) means to sieze, grab. … So it possible that it has a specialized, but otherwise unattested nuance regarding sexual or romantic relations” So they then translate according to this hypothetical nuance. (To fit with all the nuance that they conjectured in all the other sections)

Back before 1820 gay was legalised and women emancipated, translations were rather different.

When translating, words about sex are usually unclear and ambiguous, so there is entirely legitimate and appropriate objection to literal translation. If you translate literally, it is going to be silly. But you need to interpret from within the writer’s cultural and social frame, and from within their worldview, not from within the translator’s cultural and social frame and the translator’s worldview.

I have read a few footnotes and a few translations, old and new, and would summarise and paraphrase the excellent Bronze age social technology preserved in the old testament as follows.

Poofs get killed an way that is painful, terrifying, humiliating. and lowers the social status of the poof — the audience is going to see black comedy rather than martyrdom.

Female immorality: Death.

Fornication or abduction of a married or betrothed woman: Death

Fornication or abduction of an unmarried unbetrothed virgin: Shotgun indissoluble marriage, or death if you bug out on the marriage part.

Fornication or abduction of unmarried, unbetrothed, non virgin: sound of crickets chirping.

So, what happens if the abducted maiden does not want to marry her abductor?

Well, sucks to be her.

Mossadnik says:

Absolutely, Jim. I would go so far as to say that an imperfect but clear vision is still superior to a murky, hazy, confused vision. (Not implying that the vision you outline here is imperfect; it’s a general observation.) I’m not concerned about this individual or that individual; the point is whose ideas, ultimately, will win out. As long as you restore patriarchal marriage, and reinstitute all the other healthy social technologies, and make sodomy disappear (ideally forever), I couldn’t care less about BAP. It was not, contrary to various mischaracterizations, my point to insist on punishing this fag or that fag; the point exactly is that you will maintain and preserve a vision like the one described here, and not let anyone — no matter their status — convince the Right that family is disgusting, sex with women is disgusting, reproduction is disgusting, poofs should tolerated, sodomy should be tolerated, etc. I identified a major flaw in BAP’s worldview, namely hostility toward heterosexuality; the “persona” was not actually the point, except as a vehicle for that flawed worldview. The reactionary vision, like the one herein outlined, is far better, and that’s what I actually care about. I’m not at all emotionally invested in whether this or that individual, as an individual, gets the push.

Jim says:

> The question then is if the salami slicer, assuming this time around it cuts out the Left rather than the Right, goes far enough for there to be a Restoration, rather than stopping short and not cutting enough.

Once the left starts getting salami sliced, it dies. Leftism is the never ending search for new apple carts to knock over. So leftism must get ever lefter as a shark must swim or drown. (Albeit which drection constitutes “lefter” is as unpredictable as women’s fashions, because it depends on which applecart is up next. Who would have predicted human trafficking of three hundred thousand children to be core and vital constitutional principle of the rule of law. Who would have predicted Covidianity)

Once the left is dead, then it is time to show our full power level.

And full power level is still not going to throw Bronze Age Pervert and Milo off roofs, at least not if they continue as they have been going for more than a decade.

If we roll the left back on eighty twenty issues like mass child trafficking and the mass importation of foreign terrorists, we roll them back on everything. That is why they are fighting so stridently on these issues.

Pseudo-Chrysostom says:

The thing is it’s all too easy become complacent and non-confrontational once most egregious issues are dealt with, and hesitancy to preach the full power of Divine law frequently turns into the reality of lacking power.

States of pickamix pragmatism and unprincipled exceptions are comfortable. Common. Recurrent even. Rome had no French Continentals or Fabian Societies printing volumes of post-colonialism or genderqueer theory, yet they had race replacement and fertility collapse all the same.

Karl says:

When the left dies in the US, can it keep going anywhere else in GAE?

I guess not, if the US keeps the provinces as part of the empire. But if the US retreats from the provinces? I fear yes, but I’m not complaining. Then Western Europeans will simply have to copy what has been done in the US and it is always easier to copy what has been successfully done than to invent a strategy from scratch.

Jim says:

> When the left dies in the US, can it keep going anywhere else in GAE?

The death of the left in the US will also be the US retreat from Global American Empire to the empire of the Ocean Lands.

So what happens in the former lands of empire is unpredictable.

Jim says:

No.

The pattern is that Thermidor needs the right to fight the left, outsources the cleanup job to the right, because it discovers that Thermidoreans, being ideologically incohesive, are unreliable.

Then Thermidor fights itself, and the right restores order. No one changes their position, they just change who has power. The organising principle of the left is “ever lefter”. The organising principle of Thermidor is “these crazies are going to wreck everything and kill us. Give us back our old unprincipled exceptions.” Thermidor does not have a workable organising principle, so power inevitably falls into the hands of a minority that do. And we are the only ones around who have a plan for the long term survival of the higher races, of our nation, and our civilisation.

If the organising principle of the left is locked out of power, who remains?

China under Xi is Thermidor still holding onto power, but that power is shaky. It is going to fall right or fall left. Probably right: Confucianism with market economy characteristics.)

Xi zigged left, and businessmen took fright. So now he is zagging right, and has taken some small moves to fixing marriage, which is a small step towards Confucianism with market economy characteristics.

Thermidor in Russia hung on to power for fifty six years. In England, seven years. In China, it has been going since 1978, forty seven years so far, but it has not looked stable or secure at any time.

With Pete Hegseth in the most critical position of them all, things may go quite fast. Or not. The spy services are in the hands of Thermidor, which is stupid, because you want to spy on the left. If we had a rightist near any of that stuff, the Epstein files would be out by now and there would have been a counter coup in the Ukraine.

JD Vance is an unknown quantity. Impeccable Thermidorian credentials, but he just does not sound Thermidorian.

And the Epstein files still being buried and no counter coup in the Ukraine is the sort of stuff that leads a Thermidorian leader to appoint rightists to such posts.

Alf says:

It is possible, there is a definite path. The Jimian method, if I can call it that, seems to be cooperation with different factions of thermidor, conscious of the differences, seeking success where we predict they will fail to cooperate amongst themselves. Throne, altar and freehold being the natural outcome because it best satisfies all the factions.

But does require someone speerheading our faction. Who? Is it Vance, is it Hegseth? Hard to say, and we should be careful not to project overly optimistic virtues on people who have not fully proven themselves.

Jim says:

Thermidor cannot really deal with the radicals, because they just cannot help seeing the radicals as their moral superiors. They just don’t want to let go of their unprincipled exceptions — it is like the relationship between the older Effective Altruists and the Zizians. “Well, yes murdering ICE officers is morally superior, but it is not really practical. Lets focus on more practical forms of moral superiority, like the pathway from Effective Altruism to sex work: We are so morally superior to regular pimps because the regular pimps get some and we don’t get any, and the whores we turn out have Ivy League educations.”

Thus the spy agencies are dead in the water, and the Justice department has launched only two prosecutions. Though the two prosecutions might well prefigure one hundred thousand prosecutions. Someone has finally lit a fire under the Justice Department. Why were they not prosecuting Democrats on day one? These crimes have been happening continually since day one, and suddenly now two of them are being prosecuted.

The government has also been running dead on the three hundred thousand unaccompanied minors that the Biden administration caused to disappear. This is really a job for Doge, since it should be possible to find the kids by following the money. This is another 80/20 issue that is being left sitting on the table. There are some people in the Trump administration who want to rip into this issue. But it is also obvious that there are some people in the Trump administration who want it to just go away.

A common outcome of this situation is that the Sovereign, facing a rambuctious radical left, gets sick of it, and appoints people who will actually do the job. Actual rightists. So actual rightists wind up with the keys to the state’s apparatus of coercion. And once the actual right has the keys to coercion, things can get, and frequently do get, interesting.

Power does not come from popular support. Popular support comes from power, the will to use it, and the ability to use it. And to be able to use it, you need a team that sees eye to eye. Which Thermidor does not have.

On the recent arrest of two judges, the left smalls fear and weakness. And they are correct to smell fear and weakness, because it is not ten thousand judges.

“On the recent arrest of two judges, the left smalls fear and weakness. And they are correct to smell fear and weakness, because it is not ten thousand judges.”

My read is the opposite: it’s encouraging that even those holy, untouchable sovereigns – judges!!! – are being frog-marched in handcuffs out the door. And both of them for committing crimes of unquestionable leftist holiness: aiding and abetting illegal immigrants.

Alf says:

A common outcome of this situation is that the Sovereign, facing a rambuctious radical left, gets sick of it, and appoints people who will actually do the job.

“Who will rid me of these troublesome priests” indeed!

So the winners will be the ones who have the vision and will to do the dirty work. Dirty work being of course a tricky thing. People think we larp about the helicoptering — nope, we are wholly prepared to do that. At the same time, once you cross that line, you’d better be sure the sovereign has your back. Going out on a limb, doesn’t seem Trump would support that kind of thing. Not to fret of course, since there is plenty of other dirty work to be done, like you point out.

Jim says:

> doesn’t seem Trump would support that kind of thing.

Pretty sure he would not. Pete Hegseth is perhaps more complicated. But we are likely to get there eventually. Disputes over sovereign authority will escalate until decisively resolved.

The Cominator says:

What are effective altruists exactly haven’t really met them, you speak as if they are some sub school of thought of the left but the modern prog left has been pretty intolerant of thought of any kind beyond the current party line and the direction of holiness.
>Like the pathway from Effective Altruism to sex work: We are so morally superior to regular pimps because the regular pimps get some and we don’t get any, and the whores we turn out have Ivy League educations
Turning Ivy League leftist women into prostitutes is honestly pretty based (if I were the Dictator/Emperor it would be state policy for those among that group allowed to live)… even if the people doing it are anything but.

Jim says:

Effective Altruists are holier than you are because they believe in doing the most good to the greatest number with the least expenditure of effort and money — which turns out to be giving money to causes which allegedly benefit strangers you have never met, whose language you do not speak, in places you could not find on a map. Which is best done by donating money to Effective Altruist do gooder organisations, which all turn out to be the same organisation wearing different hats, which looks suspiciously like tithing to the Holier Than Everyone Else Church of Effective Altruism because it is so wonderfully effective in doing the greatest good to the greatest number.

I doubt that any of this money actually reaches any of the supposed beneficiaries, and see no sign that Effective Altruists know or care whether it does or not. The social dynamics resemble any cult that attempts to tithe its membership.

Observed behaviour of effective altruists is that because they are theoretically doing good to far away strangers in places they could not find on a map, they are excused from doing good to family and friends, excused from loyalty, especially loyalty to wives, husbands, girlfriends, or boyfriends, excused from obligations to employers, employees, and customers, and excused from honouring promises made. A notable exemplar of Effective Altruism was Sam Bankman-Fried, of whom you have probably heard. He accomplished immense good to the greatest number by giving enormous amounts of other people’s money to Effective Altruism, also to congressmen, judges, financial regulators, journalists, and civil servants. A true exemplar of superior holiness.

Effective Altruists are also awed by the superior holiness of the Zizians, but think the Zizians are taking Effective Altruism a little too far, and need to make a few unprincipled exceptions.

Based Camp have an entertaining video of the Effective Altruism to Sex Work pipeline.

The Cominator says:

Yeah I’ve seen a couple of their videos… hard to watch because the guy is obviously if not gay at least extremely effeminate… he should do testorone therapy or something.

Daddy Scarebucks says:

For me the videos are hard to watch because of what I presume is the namefag/facefag problem.

For instance, they go on repeatedly about “trans women” and wonder aloud, what could possibly be responsible for the differences in outcomes between these “trans women” and “natal women”? He advances one elaborate rationalization after another, never stating the obvious fact that “they are men”, and moreover, horribly and permanently mutilated men whose current and future dating prospects are exclusively limited to other troons. Men are repulsed by their literal appearance and women are repulsed by their fraudulence. From what I can tell, near to every troon is “polyamorous” but only with other troons. So obviously they do not get passed around like women, because there is no one to pass them around.

Or, making a based-sounding statement like “men need to own their women” and then following it up with a limp-dicked “…and women need to own their men”.

The discomfort is obvious on his face, he makes these absurd qualifications and equivalencies and rationalizations out of fear, almost certainly because he is using YouTube as a platform, or possibly he feels inferior to her and worries how she’ll take it, but ultimately the reasons aren’t important, it’s simply painful and tedious to watch.

With print media, and even long rambling essayists like Scott Alexander, we can at least skim past the long-winded crimestop in order to get to the point. With an hour and a half long video, one has to spend the full hour and a half of one’s life in order to extract the 5-10 minutes of value from it. If I am going to watch hours of interview footage, it had better be Rogan-Musk tier gold.

Has anyone ever tried taking or generating an ASR transcript of a video like this and then asking Grok or ChatGPT to clean it up and summarize it? I’m wondering if that could be a quick fix, or if the chatbots are still too lobotomized to give an accurate summary.

Jim says:

> For instance, they go on repeatedly about “trans women” and wonder aloud, what could possibly be responsible for the differences in outcomes between these “trans women” and “natal women”?

It is a mystery🙃 And yet is also a hate fact, so I give them a little bit of credit.

Anon says:

Is that why they have been busily trying knocking Pete Hegseth out.
Another disgruntled former employee have “leaked” to the media about another “scandal”.
I usually measure the effects on GAE by how hysterical they become with trump appointees, only Pete Hegseth has caused sustained reaction to remove him , running the usual he is out script. Which worrying that there are no similar reactions about the other NSA , FBI etc heads.

Jim says:

The NSA, FBI, etc are continuing to run cover for the left on the eighty/twenty issues, like the three hundred thousand missing children. Because they feel the left is morally superior on those issues. They are also quietly supporting the terror regime in the Ukraine. Because democracy is so much more democratic when anyone who doubts it is democratic gets imprisoned and his eyes gouged out. Which they were somewhat conflicted on when it looked like their own eyes were going to be gouged out, but a few Ukrainian eyes getting gouged out is obviously righteous because of democracy.

Pax Imperialis says:

Hegseth has recently come out strongly in the bomb Iran faction. Coincidence?

Mossadnik says:

Link?

Pax Imperialis says:

Paraphrasing, ‘we’re willing to go far with Iran, btw we have limited interests in bombing the Houthis, it’s just shipping lanes, also it’s about sending a message to Iran to come to the table and negotiate, we don’t want to bomb you, please negotiate, we’re only asking for something completely unreasonable, did I say we’ll have a trillion dollar DOD budget soon in order to rebuild the military?’

Either they are lying about the scope of the deal they wish to make, or they are dangerously optimistic about what the Iranians will agree to.

He sounds delusional about how effective the Yemen operation is going, but as a spokesperson what else is he to say? Unlike the 2003 buildup, this one mainly air and naval without ground, and much of those assets moved there are nuclear capable (F35/B2/B52) or air defense (Patriot/THAAD). This is why I’m worried and speculating DOD will push the nuclear option should a deal not materialize. They know those conventional bunker busters will not work, and crazy talk about rushing in special operations to kick in bunker doors was allegedly shut down by Trump. It really only leaves one option.

Mossadnik says:

This is why I’m worried and speculating DOD will push the nuclear option should a deal not materialize.

Okay, you really are sperging out.

They’re not going to nuke Iran, even if someone at DOD pushes for it – even if Trump decides to “lead the pack,” he is not an utter nutter. I suspect you might be reading too much into it. Of course, I could be proven wrong. But so far, Trump has not shown himself to be unhinged.

Your Uncle Bob says:

Speaking of translations, Jim, is there any one Bible translation you’ve found that’s best for translating red pills, or even least worst?

Or is that the wrong question, and you’re working off several open plus occasional dictionaries?

Mossadnik says:

I think Jim likes the King James Version best; he always uses citations from there. Obviously, if you can’t read the original (whatever it is you consider to be “original”), it’s always a good idea to consult several different translations.

Jim says:

The King James version is the best bible, but they erred in favouring the Masoretic Text. However this is mostly stuff that does not matter, except where in the New Testament, the disciples keep quoting stuff from the Septuagint that differs from the Masoretic text.

Josephus in his history claims to be working from Hebrew texts, and his history, and thus his Hebrew texts agree with the Septuagint, in giving the patriarchs a timeline that is consistent with Egyptian history, while the Masoretic timeline is incompatible with the Egyptian history, which history was surely known to the people who wrote the original Hebrew text, so the Masoretic timeline has to be a copyist corruption or a deliberate fabrication.

The Masoretic text also purges some Messiah related material.

On the other hand, the Orthodox bibles, which correctly favor the Septuagint, have their own problems.

Favouring the Masoretic is a reflection of the excessive Judaizing by the protestant reformers. Reform was needed, and had to be done, but they purity spiraled rather too hard, purifying Jesus and Paul. If the Septuguint was good enough for Jesus and the apostles, it should have been good enough for the protestants. Should not have trusted the Jews to keep to their original texts.

However the protestant reforms, in particular purging the Lavender mafia doctrines of the Protoevangelium of James, and restoring Christ as the Logos of John, are far more important than their excessive purity spiralling and judaization, which are trivial details that no one cares much about in this time.

Since the protestant reformation, we have recovered some Hebrew texts from the time of Jesus, notably the Dead Sea Scrolls, and they support the Septuagint against the Masoretic text, revealing the Masoretic text to be corrupted.

In a time when marriage has been criminalised, and we are failing to reproduce, the most critical issue is to purge Christianity of the heretical lavender mafia doctrines of the Protoevangelium of James.

Now that science and technology are stagnating in most fields, the second most critical issue is restoring the Logos — not that that will matter if we have no grandchildren.

Russian Orthodoxy is the only major mainstream Church that is still Christian rather than postChristian, but a lot of Trump’s pastors are talking of a third awakening. If we get two based presidents in a row, we are likely to see some major mainstream protestant Churches return to Christianity.

Pseudo-Chrysostom says:

When I need to cross reference a passage, I like to use the KJV, Douay-Rheims, and Young Literal translations together. These are generally the best in my opinion, and a good way to get a sense of the ‘outlines’ of what a line is about. Everything else you can find are generally faggotry, games of telephone with ‘reimaginings’ of ‘reimaginings’, or worse.

Claymore says:

Study of Civs

“There have been tensions on that border for 1,500 years. So, you know, the same as it’s been…”

Finally some big global politician admits, at least by using the date instead of the name, that Islam is the single massive problem the non-Muslim world faces yet unsolved for 1500 years now.

“…but they’ll get it figured out one way or the other.”

No, they won’t, never have, never will. The only way is to draw the border, and separate and relocate the religions permanently apart from each other. And then mass polemicizing Islam as false. Else you will have another 1500 years of war and murder and rape and impregnation and slavery, most within your lands, rather than across borders.

You can thank the GloboHomos for the coming second Islamic Conquest of your lands, death of your men and capture of your women, because they have already imported enough Muslims to ensure that it happens, and now the Muslims are outbreeding, outfinancing, and out-tricking you. And so even if you kill off all the GAY and all the LEFT, you still have very powerful Islam in and owning your lands with full rights, and a 125+ year legacy of LEFTY indoctrination programmed into your people and laws via Govt schools, and your people are all fatties. Thus you have no legal, societal, or military mechanisms left to do a damn thing about it.

All I’m saying is that you are in deep trouble even after slaying GAY-LEFT, because GAY-LEFT does not carry a religious sword, and is thus weak. Islam is a FAR more powerful adversary.

And almost NO ONE is willing to talk about and admit the Islam Problem, let alone talk about what to do about it.

So given the numbers of Muslims in your lands, they will win, until the last of you, if you have the numbers, rise up in another Crusade. And unlike the first one, this time you must actually finish it, not one Muslim left in your lands, not a single one. And not one ever let into your lands ever again. No exceptions.

History proves that once you start letting anything in, it distracts and disrupts your Civ and takes you over, every single time.

God separated the tribes for very good reasons.
It is best you stop failing to heed the obvious wisdom behind his decision to separate them.

Jim says:

> All I’m saying is that you are in deep trouble even after slaying GAY-LEFT, because GAY-LEFT does not carry a religious sword, and is thus weak. Islam is a FAR more powerful adversary.

The gay left was quite successful in destroying Islam

A state religion runs religious seminaries, as for example Harvard, and requires that any prospective member of the elite be approved as a member of the faith by its seminarians.

The elite of most Muslim countries is failing to reproduce because their daughters go to whore schools, and their sons are emasculated by cat lady professors steeped in Globohomo.

The fertility level of a Muslim country correlates most strongly with the proportion of female students attending university. If the student body is majority female, they are in a death spiral. Their elite is perishing for lack of grandchildren.

Anonymous Fake says:

I still have no idea why the maximum stress prep schools (mostly religious, as in my background) haven’t seized the Ivy League with patriarchy as a weapon. What I mean is, that the males of the family get the most elite private tutors and prestigious extracurricular activities, and the women of the family are married off early so they can hit the work force early, saving money that could aid the males. Very basic optimization here.

Schools are limited in how many rich legacy kids they can admit before it affects quality and ultimately the USNWR rankings. Middle class striver types who adopt my strategy, and yes they would be disproportionately Muslim, would have the best chance of becoming new elites by this method of meritocracy. Not belief in the state religion, but getting the highest grades and getting into the highest ranked schools just because. The system that runs K-12, ie the future.

But it’s possible the left is simply better at academia, because the ideal academic is a genius thinker whose father was a sleazy lawyer/banker/colonel who pulled some strings to get him into Harvard etc. So the leftist elite has real intelligence, but no direct contact with the corrupt profession that benefits from intelligence.

And the problem with seizing academia with force is that force lets you get what you want anyway so you can just ignore academia (big mistake). Force alone like Thermidor wants isn’t enough. We need faith. Islam or Catholicism would do.

Most shills just push the same wheelbarrow over and over again, but he has a few different wheelbarrows, so I allow through some of his stuff.

Most of the shills disappeared when Musk couped USAID. Though the Democrats seem to be putting their apparatus back together, so they will probably re-appear.

Mossadnik says:

I believe P-C is right though; AF’s comments read like there is “no one at home.” I never bother trying to parse out what it is that he (it?) is attempting to communicate; it feels like an absolute waste of time. He is also almost entirely unresponsive. It really is a marvel; there are people among us with brain damage, they have access to the internet, and while they can produce walls-of-text, it is very evident that something essential is missing in there.

Is he actually a paid shill? Who would pay for such spam? Surely even the Jesuits have some (if minimal) standards?

Maybe for shits and giggles. There are only so many bathhouse scat-play orgies one can participate in before getting bored with that and moving on to something even more challenging; forcing a biological but essentially non-sapient entity to spam Jim’s blog about the education system or some such might just be it!

Because the faggots are running things. The prep schools don’t do it because faggots in charge, and the Ivy Leagues would not allow it. Any prep school that does not focus on whoring out the daughters of the elite is not going to be allowed to insert the people that have done its preparatory courses into the Ivy League.

Plus, my kids did actual research on what prestigious extra curricular activities get you in, and it was leftist leftism, and more leftist leftism. If you really want to get into the Ivy League, murder a cop. or better, an ice agent, and vandalise a Tesla. The kids at their school created fake left organisations to fake up being leftists.

Mossadnik says:

As a frothing, RABID ZIONIST, I can definitely sympathize with the sentiment contained here; but seriously Mr. Rod, it’s not yet time for war with Islam; let them first defeat Progressivism, and then move on to the Next Big Thing.

Excessively worrying about Islam right now comes across as shilling for the ZOG. There will be a time for it, but it is not yet.

Oog en Hand says:

“But our vision on sexual questions is perfectly clear. Poofs off roofs, coverture for wives, shotgun marriage for women who lose their virginity. Old Testament rules, which are clear though modern bibles keep mistranslating them.”

King James was a poof. So, AKJV 1611? I don’t think so. Prevent mistranslations by learning Hebrew, and buy a Masoretic Text, supplemented by Artscroll Translation.

Pseudo-Chrysostom says:

The first language of the Bible was greek, not hebrew.

Jim says:

> The first language of the Bible was greek, not hebrew.

Yes. Jesus and the disciples relied upon the Septuagint. The protestants were wrong to attempt to return to the Hebrew. They were being holier than Jesus.

As very ancient Hebrew texts have shown up, we find that the ones written around the time of Christ and earlier, our oldest texts, agree with the Septuagint, not the Masoretic text.

Mossadnik says:

Well Oog, without discounting the validity of the comments above me, if you have any specific question you’d like to ask me about the Hebrew of the Masoretic Text, I wouldn’t mind answering it. Especially if it’s a troll question – I myself am a troll. And a Bible nerd.

Beow says:

Since you are offering, I have seen it argued that the language in Leviticus is actually saying “you shall not lie with a man in the bed of a woman” meaning apparently two guys with one girl. Thoughts?

They are being wiseguys ‘see it is socially determined, aren’t I clever’. 2 men with 1 women is johns fucking a prostitute- no one cares.

Mossadnik says:

Actually, there is a reference to something like that (but not exactly that) in Amos 2:7 (KJV):

“That pant after the dust of the earth on the head of the poor, and turn aside the way of the meek: and a man and his father will go in unto the same maid, to profane my holy name.”

Don’t fuck the same prostitute that your dad is fucking, basically. Or – don’t fuck her together with your dad. Both understandings apply, I should say.

(There are some other (disapproving or prohibitory) references to sleeping with your dad’s concubines or any of his wives throughout Scripture.)

Jim says:

This reflects the problems of polygamy. Old man, lots of young wives, sons with no wives, trouble. Jews were polygamous and patrilineal until they seemingly disappeared under Roman persecution. Then some some bunch of people claiming to be Jews recovered Phariseeism around six hundred AD, and these guy were patriarchal, but not patrilineal and not polygamous.

Mossadnik says:

I think the Lebanese are pretty much direct descendants of the Canaanites; and that even the Ashkenazim of Europe (who only emerged around the 10th century AD) phenotypically resemble the modern-day Lebanese tells me that the geneticists tracing at least some of our origin to the Levant are not exactly fabricating their science. I don’t claim to be pure Levantine, obviously, but genetically at least around 30%-40% seems entirely plausible.

Mossadnik says:

I mean, when Hezbollah started publishing pictures of their casualties in the recent war, a running gag in Israel went, “Wow look at all those Ashkenazi terrorists” or “Hey isn’t that my friend from high school?” and so on and so forth.

Jim says:

There is undeniable genetic evidence that there is some genetic connection between the Jews expelled from Israel by the Romans, and modern Jews.

But fifth and sixth century Judaism is a revival movement, centered in Babylon, recovering and re-inventing what had largely been lost.

Weak state religion in the Sassanid empire, revivals of older religions. Judaism made a comeback.

Mossadnik says:

I think (and likewise Obadiah Shoher thought) that if the rabbis had just stopped at the Mishnah, supposedly written in the early third century AD, there could develop a relatively functional form of “Judaism.” But they didn’t; they compiled volumes upon volumes of rabbinic bullshit in the Talmud, and having then sanctified all that, completely destroyed any possibility of Judaism being a sane religion.

Obviously I still prefer it as a state religion to Progressivism, but I’m not exactly satisfied with this alternative, nor with the fact that the chances of reforming Judaism in the foreseeable future are very slim. Perhaps Jews need to see Christians conquering the universe itself in the name of Jesus Christ; then they might just have an “Uh-oh” epiphany.

Jim says:

Nuts

Mossadnik says:

Ridiculous.

“Mishkav” is indeed used in the plural form here, “mishkevey,” from which it may well be plausibly argued that it’s not just one specific type of sexual activity that one is forbidden to engage in with a male as one does with a female, but indeed, any type of sexual activity one engages in with a female is prohibited if it’s with a male.

A literal translation would be, “And with a male do not lie the lies of a woman – abomination it is.” I.e., all types of sex one does with a female, one should not do with a male. That is the literal wording here. The same exact plural form (“mishkevey” or “mishkevei”) is used in Leviticus 20:13.

The actual meaning is perfectly clear and obvious.

Mossadnik says:

(To clarify, the plural form of “mishkav” would be “mishkavim”; “mishkevey” would be “lies of,” as I translated above.)

(So, literal meaning – no homosexual anal, oral, or anything else. If you do it with a woman, do not do it with males.)

Mossadnik says:

Oh, and if you think that Biblical translation is a mess, just wait until you get to the Tao Te Ching. I’m actually a big fan of the Ching, and a practitioner of its doctrines, but holy pangolin, there are about six bazillion gorillion different translations thereof, and more often than not they’re quite dissimilar. It’s good stuff though; as far as I’m concerned, I am the Tao (not the Logos; that was Christ Jesus) manifest in the flesh.

Mossadnik says:

I’d say that my inner, esoteric teaching is very much in line with the Tao Te Ching; whereas my outer, exoteric teaching more closely resembles the deuterocanonical Book of Sirach. Really, if you just master these two works, you should do fine in life.

Oh, and if you feel like trolling the goyim – throw in the Pirkei Avot, too. It is mostly in Hebrew, with a bit of Aramaic. 😉

Musk has also hammered over and over the point that we don’t have democracy, we have bureaucracy (he avoids “oligarchy” for obvious reasons but the content is otherwise isomorphic to Yarvin).

Anyway, in other whitepill news today Trump posted that Biden’s pardons of the J6 committee are null and void, because Autopen, and the pardon-ees can expect to be investigated.

Jim says:

I see the ideas of this blog appear in the Trump administration. Trump on Thermidor — he is conscious of walking in the footsteps of Napeleon and Cromwell — Musk on fertility.

Trump has been strictly adhering to legality. Napoleon did not. But Cromwell adhered to legality until he did not.

Bix Nudelmann says:

Does the Left fear Cromwell’s return, or do they simply perceive/project Trump to be as duplicitous, plotting, fake and viscious as they are?

Mossadnik says:

Second option.

They don’t understand historical processes at all. Trump Derangement Syndrome, like all [Great Man] Derangement Syndromes, is entirely them projecting unto him their own worst traits; and they see in him a reflection of their fears, not in a reaity-grounded way, but as they appear to them within their own psyches. Above all, the Great Man — who is almost invariably a Masculine Man — is spitefully envied; on a primal level, they wish to be like him, and consciously or subconsciously cognizant of the fact that they aren’t like him, and will never be like him, they instinctively seek to destroy him – the rest being, as per usual, false gnostic rationalization.

Mossadnik says:

To be clear though; there are (relatively) sane leftists who aren’t terminally afflicted with TDS, and those leftists might be willing to cooperate with Trump on some issues – of course, only until he actually goes full Cromwell.

Jim says:

The sane and intelligent leftists are all old, lagging behind the purity spiral.

The left is single mindedly focused on eighty twenty issues — sexual mutilation of children, trannies in the military, men in women’s sports, defunding the police, war in the Ukraine, mass migration, and so on and so forth.

They are all stupid and crazy, stupidity and craziness being a basic mandatory requirement if you hope to get anywhere within a leftist institution.

The purity spiral just keeps on getting purer.

Governing institutions are completely leftist and continuing to get rapidly lefter, so the way to get ahead in the government and quasi governmental sector continues to be lefter than thou.

The logical end point is a right wing regime reliant on martial law that dissolves and suppresses existing institutions of governance, and creates new institutions from scratch, institutions that frequently have the same name, and many of the same personnel, but have their chain of command and internal structure of organisation created from scratch.

Jim says:

For a long time the left has been killing respected institutions, gutting them, and wearing them as a skin suit while the new organisation focuses single mindedly on functions and goals entirely unrelated to the functions and goals of the original organisation. Examples: Disney, “The science”. The Trump organisation has to go forth killing and gutting existing organisations. And Thermidor cannot do this job. It has to recruit the alt right to do it.

Mossadnik says:

If you wonder whence I derived these insights, I literally just translated what I see with my own eyes on a daily basis regarding Netanyahu Derangement Syndrome – it’s all exactly the same s**t everywhere, and often by the very same kikes. It’s a certain type of temperament. I, being biologically incapable of envy, upon seeing men like Trump and Bibi, instinctively like what I see (I even like Hitler, though I don’t entirely agree with everything he’s done); whereas these kikes instinctively hate what they see, because they are absolutely seething, green with envy whenever a Great Man appears on stage, no matter what that Great Man does or doesn’t do.

And so they are unable to assess situations rationally at all. And that, hopefully, shall be their downfall.

In Israel they are intermixing with non Ashkenazi including the more based oriental Jews, and losing their electoral power due to lower fertility. The West doesn’t have those low effort solutions for dealing with the annoying JQ but it could forcefully encourage migration to Zion once right wing government becomes a permanent thing over there and the newcomers can be shill tested, re-educated etc by the Bibi-ists upon arrival. I can imagine Stephen Miller in 10 years telling J’s in America their options are Christian-centric nationalism at home or moving to the Netanyahu Forever version of Israel.

The state religion of the future will have a large language model search engine at its core. Musk has a pattern of focusing on technologies that are key to power — rockets, the internet in space, twitter, and large language models.

But all his stuff is vulnerable to central government state action. On the other hand, I see he has made some preparation for retreat, for the event that Shaniqua gets installed to run his businesses.

Jim says:

On reflection, for Teslas and for Optimus, it is possible to connect the reward function to reality. Have every tesla report back every accident, and every optimus report back every fall, fumble, and collision.

On tricky and surprising intersections, Teslas frequently enter the wrong lane, and unlike humans, they never learn that a particular intersection is tricky and surprising. Fixing that involves linking large language models to truth and reality.

For Optimus to actually be useful, it has to be able to recognise if a task completion was successful or not. Again, connection to reality. Linking Tesla and Optimus reality to Grok reality is a hard problem, but Musk has a starting point.

One of the strange parallel realities is that Trump/Elon/Republicans/Putin/whoever are constantly hating each other, and turning on each other, or about to turn on each other. I farm reddit karma as a side-hobby and I gained 200+from one comment recently by making up an observation of Trump grimacing/having a spasm of anger across his face when asked about Elon in “the latest” interview. I took the idea from schizophrenics (operationarchitect.com describes similar experiences). Similar to the schizos you can accrue big karma by long rants about the private thoughts of their enemies, if they are always desperate, surrounded, upset and in danger. I think porn is a right word. They seem to get a major kick from their enemies being in a state of negative emotions

Mossadnik says:

Leftists have bifurcated brains. They are often sadistic, but they won’t admit to themselves that they are sadistic. We all have our sinful sides, and by no means is evil the sole prerogative of the Left; but leftists self-perceive as holy holy pious pious saintly saintly while all-too-obviously relishing in pain and suffering. In internet parlance: Once you see it, can’t unsee it. The alternate reality is simply the gnostic layer or rationalization built on top of that.

The Cominator says:

Glad to see you’re back to making good posts. Never is the devil more evil than when he appears TO HIMSELF as an angel of light.

Mossadnik says:

Leftists don’t fully believe that reality is real, so they often judge situations entirely on their own flawed impulses, rather than engaging in constant ontological A/B testing and readjusting their priors accordingly.

Neurotoxin says:

“Leftists have bifurcated brains. They…self-perceive as holy holy pious pious saintly saintly while all-too-obviously relishing in pain and suffering.”

The best example of this is the entire twentieth century. Every time leftists took over another helpless country it just so happened that the only solution to various problems was for leftists in power to slaughter millions of people. After at least 100 million murdered it dawns on any sane observer that the democides are not an unfortunate necessity required to solve some problem, but are rather the actual goal.

And all this, of course, while praising themselves about their angelic motives. If their auto-fellating propaganda were anywhere near reality, they’d have visible halos.

Mossadnik says:

Yes, that’s the obvious example.

The “less obvious,” but no less (perhaps, indeed, even more) pernicious case, would be Feminism. An endless source of pain and suffering, yet they sail right along and do not back down; at some point it should become quite clear that the pain and the suffering (and the collapsing civilization) are the entire point. And I do believe that this point has been reached.

The Cominator says:

The most sane and effective leftist government of the 20th century was North Vietnam, they only actually killed around 50000 people (mostly Catholic landowners who got land not so much by any commercial merit but by sucking up to the French) admitted it went too far, mainly used leftism as a way of getting military aid, and abandoned communism almost immediately after the wars against the great powers were over and they could tell centrally planning everything wasn’t working. Oh in the course of their wars they deposed the truly nightmare regime of Pol Pot’s Cambodia. If all leftist governments were like Vietnam I could believe they actually had good intentions… but Vietnam was an insane outlier for seeming to actually have good intentions.

Jim says:

Recall our homegrown leftists response to the Holodomor and the Cambodian autogenocide. Albeit in 1978 they abruptly recast Pol Pot as Reaganite, and suddenly noticed a genocide that ever decent person had noticed three years earlier. Similarly, they were able to notice the Holodomor after Khruschev’s secret speech.

Hey Jim, think it’s likely that Trump’s IRS will ‘Bob Jones’ Harvard? As in revoke it’s tax exempt status? I’m seeing some rumblings that way, and I’ve been in favor of making ‘Bob Jones’ a verb for quite a while. It’s not tanks on Harvard Yard, but hey, it’s a start.

Mossadnik says:

It’s obvious that Trump’s guys read Moldbug and even Jim, and follow the NRx plan, so they realize that America is under the spell of Satan because the professoriat (priesthood) of Harvard is Satanic, and no doubt they will use whatever tricks they can come up with to economically drain this den of wickedness, ideally as preparation for the tanks in the yard. This journey of a thousand miles surely begins with a single cry of “oy vey goyim so much antisemitism SHUT IT DOWN!” And they will shut it down, one way or another.

Mossadnik says:

Just logged off JB having shitposted a bit, when suddenly – THIS (BOOM):

President Donald Trump declared that Harvard University would lose its tax-exempt status, a designation that has allowed the school to avoid paying levies on its revenue under classification for educational institutions.

Trump posted the announcement after weeks of threatening an Internal Revenue Service review of the Ivy League’s tax-free treatment.
“We are going to be taking away Harvard’s Tax Exempt Status. It’s what they deserve!” Trump wrote.

Conservatives have targeted Harvard and other elite universities in recent years over idealogical differences and allegations of a rise in antisemitism amid campus protests against the war in Gaza. Trump and other Republicans have accused the insttitutions of promoting liberal agendas and so-called “wokeness.”

“The next chapter of the American story will not be written by the Harvard Crimson,” Trump said during a Thursday night commencement address at the University of Alabama. “It will be written by you, the Crimson Tide.”

The IRS code prevents presidents from interfering with the federal tax agency’s decisions, raising questions about whether Trump’s Friday announcement stemmed from his own decision-making or a reference to the end of the independent agency’s review.

GUTTING THE SPOOKS!

Trump administration plans major downsizing at U.S. spy agencies

The CIA plans to cut 1,200 positions, along with thousands more from other parts of the U.S. intelligence community.

The Trump administration is planning significant personnel cuts at the Central Intelligence Agency and other major U.S. spy units, downsizing the government’s most sensitive national security agencies, according to people familiar with the plans.

The administration recently informed lawmakers on Capitol Hill that it intends to reduce the CIA’s workforce by about 1,200 personnel over several years and cut thousands more from other parts of the U.S. intelligence community, including at the National Security Agency, a highly secretive service that specializes in cryptology and global electronic espionage, a person familiar with the matter said. The person, like others interviewed, spoke on the condition of anonymity to discuss sensitive matters.

The specifics of the planned cuts have not been previously reported.

The Cominator says:

Its looking like Tulsi should be the exception to our laws against women holding positions of power, people of jeet decent having power over personnel in any organization, and anyone with any sort of background as any kind of leftist at any point in their life holding any position of power in the security state.

Shes really hitting it out of the park, seems like right when she got in she gave out a bunch of “marked cards” to people in her office and then wait to see what leaked to the media… shes impressing me a lot so far.

Jehu says:

I believe Trump’s algorithm in this case and several others was to pick people with legit reason to have a burning hatred for that portion of the Deep State to preside over it’s liquidation.

The Cominator says:

Hasn’t always worked and I would have thought the glowniggers would be the toughest nut to crack but shes doing a surprisingly good job so far.

Jim says:

The ruler needs a synthetic tribe through which to rule. Trump is Thermidor, and knows that now is time for Thermidor, so he does not really have one.

He or his successor will have little choice but to do something about this eventually.

Mossadnik says:

It’s because your satanic elite, for all its flaws, isn’t excessively inbred (meaning in the colloquial, not biological sense). Imagine if the spooks, the judges, the bureaucrats, the journalists, the academics, etc., were all literally married to each other and formed a cohesive clique, i.e., one big family where everyone is actually related by familial ties to everyone else. Your satanic overlords are (to my knowledge) not as inbred as that, which partly explains why they are disunited and run around like a headless chicken, instead of conspiring competently and acting as one man.

In some other countries, ahem ahem, the ruling class is all inter-married (with varying degrees of distance, to be sure), with the result being that they can conspire competently against the rest of the public and there isn’t all that much that can be done about it, short of hoping and waiting for demography to eventually overthrow them. Or hot civil war; whichever comes first.

Mossadnik says:

I mean, I don’t know, not really familiar with the intricacies of your ruling class. But imagine if they — spooks, judges, bureaucrats, etc., — all grew up in the same neighborhoods, went to the same schools, all had business ties with each, worked for each other, invited one another to the same parties, and actually literally all intermarried. Surely, it’s not as bad as that in America, right?

Jim says:

As it happens, some time ago our ruling class did grow up in the same neighborhoods, did go to the same schools, all had business ties with each, worked for each other, invited one another to the same parties, and actually literally all intermarried.

And then they started holiness spiralling on diversity, which destroyed their cohesion.

Right now, the only thing they can agree on is that they hate Donald Trump, Trump voters, taxpayers, straight white Americans, anyone who produces real goods and real services, and people who play video games.

Interestingly, the uniparty in England is committing suicide in the same way for the same reasons, though their systematic destruction of production and distribution of real goods and real services is much further advanced than in America. Currently the Tory party in England is run by a black migrant woman, who does not seem too bright, but, being black, is allowed to to actually be slightly less leftist. Unfortunately for her, no white member of the uniparty is allowed to actually be conservative.

Reform is going to wind up governing, but will find themselves in the same position as Trump 1.0, governing through institutions controlled by their enemies, with no very clear plans as to what to do even if they were not trying to get their enemies to do it for them.

The time in the wilderness was good for Trump. He passed through the fire, and it hardened him. It also revealed who were his friends, and who were his enemies.

Mossadnik says:

Not all Ashkenazim in Israel are members of the ruling class. I’m definitely not; I come from a different background. My ex-wife actually is, though, and let me tell you, this leftist elite is inbred as fuck – again, not in a “cousin marriage” way, but in a “one big family” way. Glad I escaped!

Mossadnik says:

And then they started holiness spiralling on diversity, which destroyed their cohesion.

That seems to explain it. So, as I understand it, as long the “anti-racist” signalling was just signalling, and very little actual diversity was incorporated into the “family,” they had sufficiently strong cohesion to competently conspire (e.g., whatever transpired at the Bohemian Grove); however, once they got high on their own supply and started marrying into Planet Earth’s Exotic Mystery Soup — often recent immigrants — in significant numbers, no longer look or behave like one big family.

Mossadnik says:

Well, we’re laughing now because it’s the good timeline; the other one, where Kamala “Harry Potter plus Hare Krishna” Harris is POTUS is not nearly as amusing. But that’s exactly the point, I guess: diversity… is not really a strength. They drank their own race-denialist kool aid, filled their “elite” with brown low-IQ morons, and now they’re about to exit history. Just and merciful are the ways of Gnon.

Mossadnik says:

Over here, the “Religious Zionists” whom I mentioned previously as an incipient substitute ruling class do have some darkies among them, as racialism (in the Galtonian sense) has not been embraced by either the Right or the Left; but they are still majority-Ashkenazi, and as long as they remain so, being both genetically-ethnically and memetically-religiously cohesive, and (most importantly) do not celebrate Feminism and LGBTism (or, for that matter, any other leftardism) — alas, some of them do celebrate the former — they might eventually replace the current, degenerate elite. They lack a King, though; and their “political instincts” are such that they might never produce a King from amongst their own synthetic tribe. But time will tell; NRx ideas are certainly not confined to America, and Monarchism undoubtedly has Biblical grounding.

Mossadnik says:

Just checked Wikipedia; neither Curtis Yarvin nor Nick Land nor the Dark Enlightenment has an entry in Hebrew.

Then again, this blog doesn’t even have an entry in English. Once the glowniggers and the troons are purged, someone should definitely do something about it.

Mossadnik says:

Nick Land is somewhat familiar around here, at least within academic circles. Back in 2013, a friend invited me to some discussion group in Jerusalem about Speculative Realism, where they discussed Reza Negarestani and Nick Land. But the discussion was all philoso-faggotry and, alas, neither the lecturer nor anyone in the audience shared any nigger or Treblinka jokes. Boring.

Mossadnik says:

I think Speculative Realism should be practiced rather than merely preached. Show, don’t tell, if I may grossly misapply Hemingway here.

Instead of blah blah blah long sophisticated words, the organizer and main speaker (or anyone in attendance, for that matter; like myself, for instance) should have performed an “Involvement With Reality,” as professor Land might say, by pulling down the pants, grabbing the crotch, throwing some banana peels and nuts at the discussion group, thumping one’s chest repeatedly, and loudly exclaiming:

“Mup da du didda,
po mo gub bidda –
Be dat tum muhfugen,
bix nood! Cof bin
dub ho muhfugga.”
(+ “KILL WHITEY!”)

When the Moldbuggian Antiversity or Chud Academy is finally established, this shall be a required lesson, right after watching some Cheese Pizza involving 8-year-old girls and the happy, happy family dog.

Amen.

Anonymous Fake says:

Australian elections show the cuckening continues. I just knew their Covid camps were a sign of what was coming. Chinese communism down under.

It honestly looks like we’re getting America First but not on American terms. It’s the rest of the world falling away into the Cathedral’s maw, on their own terms.

And that’s probably best for America. Because this is clown world.

Jim says:

That parties continue to be banned and elections cancelled indicates the cuckening does not continue.

The election in Australia was disappointing, but the non uniparty vote in Australia, though still small, continues to rise.

Election stealing has been happening in Australia to suppress the non uniparty vote, to nip them in the bud. Non Uniparty parties will get places when uniparty internal conflict makes election stealing difficult.

Sometimes I forget we had a better class of Oligarch in the past. Just look at Steve Jobs in this video, compare him to Peter Thiel, a faggy doped up looking idiot who spends his time talking to Jordan Peterson crying about incels playing videogames as the reason behind the tech decline while he orders up another SV techboy to ram up the ass.

I wonder how our phones would look without Steve. Probably nothing good, maybe people would have giant walkie talkie radios or some shit. I never looked into what ‘alternatives’ were being offered back then.

Mossadnik says:

I remember being informed just how totally absolutely “conservative” he is, despite farting semen mixed with worms. Then he started parading around his “husband” in right-wing venues, and again I was informed that he is the Right’s Greatest Ally. Now apparently he has been reduced to whining like a FEMALE JOURNALIST about normal regular men who (unlike hardcore Chuddhas such as myself) probably don’t even want to roof him.

Do you know if he at least received any pushback from Peterson for this gay kvetching?

JustAnotherGuy says:

Funnily enough, I heard he got that talking point from Peterson (which is believable).

Mossadnik says:

Horrible. But then again, namefags gonna namefag, and oldfags gonna oldfag, so not all that surprising. The younger generation — coincidentally, the very exact men maligned by the drunkard and the poof — will put an end to this crap, whenever it is they finally assume power.
