    THE OTHER GREEK INNOVATION: TRAGEDY

    —“Nietzsche found in classical Athenian tragedy an art form that transcended the pessimism and nihilism of a fundamentally meaningless world. The Greek spectators, by looking into the abyss of human suffering and affirming it, passionately and joyously affirmed the meaning of their own existence. They knew themselves to be infinitely more than petty individuals, finding self-affirmation not in another life, not in a world to come, but in the terror and ecstasy alike celebrated in the performance of tragedies.”—

    THE WEST AND TRAGEDY VS SUFFERING

    If you don’t understand Nietzsche’s insight that tragedy was the west’s alternative to semitic suffering, which socialized the problem of difficulty rather than privatizing it, then you do not understand either Nietzsche nor the uniqueness of the west.

    Heroism bred Tragedy. And it is Tragedy vs Suffering that separates the west from the rest.

    THE COMING CIVIL WAR ISN’T JUST ABOUT RACE

    by Göran Dahl

    The purest and most basal of all conflicts are those between different genetic clusters – it doesn’t get more fundamental than that. You’re not really disagreeing with Curt’s proposition that it’s a war of reproductive strategies, you’re just left hanging without a proper explanation.

    It will be a race war, but there will also be race *traitors* as you may imagine; those who aid and abet outgroups through intimate relationships and deliberate actions that are deemed detrimental to our fitness. So a lot of in-group members will be butchered because of their crimes, and at the same time, there is evidence that suggests that their propensity to commit treason is genetic.

    So saying that it’s going to be a race war is not enough; it’s also going to be an intra-racial conflict where those with weaker selection for ethnocentrism get weeded out, because they’re more likely to do something considered anti-white. We usually refer to these people as leftists. Since we and leftists pursue (on average) different evolutionary strategies, we can also state that there is going to be a conflict revolving around speciation.

    Of course, speciation is unlikely to occur because it takes hundreds of thousands of years on average (and that’s for small, isolated groups prone to genetic drift). Likewise, I think people will find it more prudent to extirpate leftists altogether to prevent them from posing a threat ever again, so instead of a speciating divergence, only a single portion of the species will survive to evolve further.

    I am finally getting to understand how Orthodox civ (post soviet) interprets criticism of the church given the good it has done for them. This is a rather significant problem because christianity in a traditional society like theirs retains its counterbalance to the state. So a christian is a good person in orthodoxy, whereas a natural law constitutionalist so to speak is that person in america and a bit less so in the UK until their empire collapsed under them and they fell into french virtue signaling. We have a different problem here.

  • THE CIVIL WAR OVER SPECIATION: THE ARGUMENT: Ethnocentrism is the optimum group

    THE CIVIL WAR OVER SPECIATION: THE ARGUMENT:

    Ethnocentrism is the optimum group evolutionary strategy, nationalism the optimum means of protecting it, nomocracy and markets in everything, the optimum means of political order to achieving it, and soft eugenics (regulating underclass rates of reproduction) a necessity of defeating regression to the mean, such that demographics correspond to states of development rather than regress the standards of living, because together they produce rates of adaptation faster than all possible alternatives.

    The mediocre seek safety in the herd and speech and defense from the pack. The exceptional seek achievement and action – and to leave its dead weight behind.

    We can afford to speciate by reproductive strategy. You and yours are welcome to speciate by your preferred means, if me and mine are by our preferred means. That is reciprocity. If we cannot agree to reciprocity, then defeat, conquest, enserfment, enslavement, and extermination are preferable to loss.

    The Herd seeks equality, proportionality, and the Pack hierarchy and reciprocity. These are genetic and therefore intuitionistic and pre-cognitive expressions of fitness for social orders.

    So we can Revolt, Separate, Prosper (or not), and Speciate or we can war. The coming civil war is not over race – it is over our new found wealth sufficient to speciate. Or in historical terms, we continue the conflict between masculine indo-european-asian and feminine anatolian-semitic-afro-asiatic.

    This means that we have the opportunity to exit the unfit from our order, and the undesirable from yours.

    Or we have the opportunity to have the bloodiest conflict in human history – and one that it is very hard to imagine the ‘right’ will not win.

    The people who talk, teach, and preach, vs the people who act, produce, and invent.

    If this isn’t acceptable to your and yours, then enemies you choose to be.

    -Cheers.

    History likewise is explicable. Hence the tendency of historians to refer to economic and archeological data rather than written word. This process is called historization. the fact that it is far harder than say, chemical bonding, is a factor of causal density, not ‘science’..

    https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=93e8BOk2oOEPOSTMODERN ASS CLOWNS: MORE ON THE NONSENSE OF GENERATIVE ANTHROPOLOGY

    Of course it’s nonsense. Postmodernism’s “Social Construction” + Chomsky’s Generative Grammar (From Turing) = “Generative anthropology”. A bit of wishful thinking masquerading as an “hypothesis” – a contrivance as means by which to advocate for Relativism, Undecidability, Arbitrary Truth, and Internal consistency without external correspondence.

    In other words yet another iteration of the attempt by the literary, continental, theological, essayists and moral fictionalists (desperately in search of a science ) to continue their revolt against anglo empiricism, science, economics finance, law, and darwinian evolution given the series of failures of europeans to produce a fictional or mythological, or spiritual, pseudo rational, or pseudoscientific method via Derrida, foucault, Adorno et al, marx, boas, freud, rousseau, kant et al.

    There is some (mentally unhealthy ) group of people that demand a continuous narrative dream world providing analogistic (literary) rather than descriptive (scientific, organic, mechanical), as a means of preserving the means of deception and coercion available when the narrative diverges from descriptive to analogical.

    This divergence creates opportunity for the cunning to manipulate or deceive or provoke submission under pretense of knowledge that parents employ over children and professors over students and priests and politicians over adults.

    All of postmodern thought seeks nothing more than to continue the priestly method of getting status, power, advantage and income from persuasion by these frauds. Alinsky is the most honest postmodernist. The rest are simply less honest.

    In the case of Thomas and Spencer and crew this is just secular empty verbalism as a replacement for theology for the reasons I stated – because they lack insight into knowledge, policy, or process and invent fictions for themselves and others by which to sedate themselves and obtain attention from the … unsophisticated … as a cover for powerlessness alienation, and failure to compete seually, socially, economically, and politically.

    Which means they are little different from the rest of the postmodern academy: publishing fairy stories as means of getting grants and selling nonsense courses to young women easily falling victim to non existent tragedies that can be rallied against verbally without surviving in the marke for a productive good. Pathetic really.
