by Daniel Gurpide (awesome) From an anthropological perspective, traditional magic practices were perfectly adequate to a certain level of development. In this sense, ‘authentic’ magic aims at clarifying a psycho-technique (self-discipline) with a specific goal in mind; it guides man into the appropriate form for a given project. It either prepares man to bear without excessive anxiety the hostile pressures of a universe that he does not yet control, or it helps give free reign to certain instincts and repress others, so that he can accomplish more successfully a certain undertaking. With this type of magic, man had learnt to manipulate himself. He had given himself a self-chosen nature, and had succeeded in his hominisation. Hence, authentic magic constitutes the original ‘know-how’ of human self-domestication, and the domestication of the psyche by consciousness, organised by a science that was born through reflection on the know-how of animal nature. Magic degenerates as soon as it claims to find application to a relation diverse from the one instituted between consciousness and psyche: that is, between man (as living being) and the world (as event), under the wholly imaginary pretext that the human psyche participates in the cause of that event. It then leads to a cosmological theory that is entirely unfounded. On the other hand, where this reflection allows him to isolate the true terms of the ‘magic relation,’ man acquires an exact description of himself and his circumstances, and of the position he occupies within the living world. He transforms himself, from then on, into the domesticator of the living world. Hundreds of thousands of years after hominisation, it was with the Indoeuropean/Neolithic Revolution that another type of man emerges. Having learned what ‘moves’ himself, man tries now to ‘move’ animals and plants according to his wishes and needs. As far as social animals are concerned, he intends to take on a directive role, becoming the leader of the pack. Similarly, having attained a superior consciousness—thanks to the correct understanding of magic—he presents himself as aristocracy in relation to the rest of society and affirms his own sovereignty. With the advent of Indoeuropeans, man’s taming of the living world occurred in parallel to the taming of the mass—by the elite. Hereafter, ‚religion‘ comes to be the ideological system that will serve to ‘tie fast’ society and subject the group to a certain influence. (from Curt: Man began domestication of man, just as he had domesticated Fire, Metal, Plant, and Animal. That is the meaning of aristocracy: parenting (domesticating) the animal (lacking agency) man. )

Romanticism
(our attempt at restoration of tradition, before the abrahamic attack on history and science) –Paganism resurfaces as a topic of fascination in 18th to 19th-century Romanticism, in particular in the context of the literary Celtic and Viking revivals, which portrayed historical Celtic and Germanic polytheists as noble savages.The 19th century also saw much scholarly interest in the reconstruction of pagan mythology from folklore or fairy tales. This was notably attempted by the Brothers Grimm, especially Jacob Grimm in his Teutonic Mythology, and Elias Lönnrot with the compilation of the Kalevala. The work of the Brothers Grimm influenced other collectors, both inspiring them to collect tales and leading them to similarly believe that the fairy tales of a country were particularly representative of it, to the neglect of cross-cultural influence. Among those influenced were the Russian Alexander Afanasyev, the Norwegians Peter Christen Asbjørnsen and Jørgen Moe, and the Englishman Joseph Jacobs.[67]Romanticist interest in non-classical antiquity coincided with the rise of Romantic nationalism and the rise of the nation state in the context of the 1848 revolutions, leading to the creation of national epics and national myths for the various newly formed states. Pagan or folkloric topics were also common in the Musical nationalism of the period.—

It’s not that the majority pagan peoples of the ancient world, enjoyed the destruction of their letters, arts, architecture, and monuments by gleeful underclass animals bringing ruination then as the radical islamists and jewish activists bring ruination now. They felt as we felt. The difference is that they couldn’t imagine that they’d get an emperor that would betray them as a means of defeating the western roman empire and turning her own underclass people against her – as is being done to us today via immigration of hostile underclasses.

THE JEWISH, CHRISTIAN, AND MUSLIM DESTRUCTION OF THE ANCIENT WORLD
Only 7% of people in the empire were christian. The Christians ran around destroying books, arts, temples, architecture, like the french destroyed the aristocracy, and like the Jews destroy our arts, literature, and architecture,and academy, and the muslims are, in this world, destroying ancient monuments. Just as their ‘converts’ to postmodernism and marxism are destroying our monuments.
The entire religious systems of the ancient world were destroyed, the great civilizations of the ancient world were destroyed, the great works of art were destroyed, the millions of books were destroyed. trade was destroyed. and we faced a dark age that only the northern europeans rescued us from.

Note that (a) I am defending Einstein. (b) he doesn’t understand that I am but is having a feminine reaction to criticism of one of her children, (c) claims expertise but only demonstrates the use of gossip (praise) rather than addressing any of the criticisms of Einstein (that are false).
Once you realize their women, and you know how women cognate, then they are very simple.
What I am most fascinated by, is the fact that when a pseudo-male uses feminine argument, we respond differently than if a females uses feminine argument.
It demonstrates that we in fact do not take women seriously, and we take men who argue in the feminine (pilpul and critique) less seriously despite the fact that their WORDS INFLUENCE WOMEN MORE THAN OURS.
WOMEN ARE OUR WEAKNESS.
