@arcana @errante Sure, that’s a factor. But I’m drunk so I’m gonna pop off: fuck Marxists. They can’t get their heads around the idea that people might have other priorities in life than balancing an equation. Their stupid cultural victory has to come first, above all else - even if it means thoroughly crushing individuality. And the horrible irony is that in pushing for their ideals, they create fascists, who resemble them in all but name. Only TOTAL cultural victory is good enough for either camp. They simply can’t accept the existence of people who deviate from their ideology at all. And what a surprise, they share a common root: socialism.

Evola was fucking right. Socialism exists just to finally kill both what he calls (somewhat disingenuously imo) “tradition” and the bourgeoisie, who have finally achieved their goal of eradicating “tradition” almost altogether. Look where their repugnant ideology leads: a future of figures in grey jumpsuits with shaven heads born in vats and assigned roles at birth. Mediating or accepting a “negotiated version” of this ideology might reap benefits in the short term - universal healthcare for example is a very powerful positive. But it can be arrived at without their cognition. I see it as anagolous to Christcucks and the “positive” aspects of their religion (“Love thy neighbour,” charity and so on.) The immediate benefits are apparent, so people who stand to gain from them, or who have gained from them, get subsumed into supporting the whole defective ideology.

People looking to overcome alcoholism turn to Alcoholics Anonymous for support and before they know it, they’re being told to accept Christ as part of the 12-step program. Similarly, working class people who benefit from unionization or free healthcare (and I don’t care what libertarians say, it IS functionally free, all governments require taxation and universal healthcare is a fucking good deal) are quickly drawn into advocating for communism, without realising where it will ultimately lead them.

The shepherd and the sheep. It’s a timeless motif.

It sucks. I really believe in helping the vulnerable and challenging systemic structures that oppress and marginalize them. But this is not the way. It never was and it never will be. It’s just another turn of the screw towards the total death of individual meaning. It’s repugnant.
