    by Morgan Warstler

    Moldbug and reactionaries don’t stare into the abyss. Human domination is not cultural. It is value driven. There are big dumb guys and smart little guys and the guy who can muster the big dumb guys is the one who can drive the most ROI VALUE out of the rest, by organizing them to his plan. As such value creators are judged by the only true god, the market. Xianty & Western Civ WON bc it best approximated Capitalism. Most of 10 commandments are basically valorizing property rights and servicing “god” (the market). Cultures then / States – are ALWAYS controlled by VALUE CREATORS. Cuba, Russia, US, France – the smart guys best able to drive ROI are the NORMATIVE HEGEMONY. In any system, the same guys win. Reread that. HOWEVER, in each system, based on history, geography, natural resources, and on and on, the Value creators establish states and then states (controlled ALWAYS by the value creating crowd underneath COMPETE. The logical contraction of Rx guys? THEY ARE NOT THE VALUE CREATORS, they are guys who want to have power bc they GREW UP IN the winningest state. Describing the problem does not create value. In real terms this means: NOBODY BUT GOD KING ENTREPRENEURS get to decide the value of man. He can be black, Chinese, white – the ONLY and FINAL say of that mans worth? The value creator who says, I CAN MAKE $2/hr ROI and keep him sated.” There is no state, no culture, no gelatinous tribe that that CAN OVERRULE one value creator who says, this man is profitable to me. Said simply: RX fails bc it doesn’t know it is my tribe’s bitch. And push comes shove, we’ll remove them from the gene pool.

    In are theory and history we use “Fear of Vacuum” to describe primitive people’s need to fill white space with content. But the same principle applies to thoughts about the universe. The stoics would teach us and science would teach us not to fear the vacuum and fill it with nonsense and convince ourselves we are wise, but to train ourselves not to fear vacuums and consider them opportunities for learning.

    THE HIGH COST OF HIGH TRUST, HIGH RISK, HIGH VELOCITY, HIGH PROSPERITY

    Knowledge (costs) > Virtues (costs) > Manners (costs) > Ethics (costs) > Morals (costs) > Norms (costs) > Duty and Service (costs) > Taxes (Cost)

    We pay many costs to create a high trust civic order. People free ride by not paying those costs. People rebel by not paying costs and forcing others to pay them. People conduct a cold war by intentionally not paying costs and forcing others to pay them.

    The west is unique because of our high trust, high velocity, culture. Not paying costs is a luxury those who pay those costs may or may not tolerate.

    Marxism was an attempt to steal. Postmodernism is an attempt to destroy.

    SPENGLER: “ANGLOS ARE ESSENTIALLY VIKING PIRATES”

    Spengler: Liberalism works for the English because they are essentially Viking pirates

    —“England did away with the principle of the organized state, and put in its place the notion of the free private citizen.

    The citizen demands permission to fight alone in the ruthless struggle for existence, for this is the only way he can satisfy his Viking instincts.

    Buckle, Malthus, and Darwin later postulated that the basic essence of “society” was the naked struggle for existence. And they were absolutely right, at least as far as their own country and people were concerned.

    To be sure, in modern England this principle operates in a highly refined and perfected fashion.

    But evidence of a more rudimentary adherence to it can be found in the Icelandic sagas, where such behavior is obviously spontaneous and not borrowed from another culture.

    The forces with which William the Conqueror took England in 1066 could be called a “society” of knightly adventurers, and English trading companies have subdued and expropriated entire countries—most recently, since 1390, the inland regions of South Africa. Gradually the entire English nation assumed the characteristics of a “society.”

    The Old Norse instinct for piracy and clever trading has, in the end. influenced the Englishman’s attitude toward all of reality, including property, work, foreign peoples, and the weaker individuals and classes among his own people. The same instinct has also yielded political techniques that are extremely effective weapons in the struggle for mastery of the globe.

    A concept complementary to that of “society” is the “private citizen.” He represents the sum of certain positive ethical qualities which like all great. ethical virtues are not acquired through training or education, but are borne in the blood and perfected after “passing through generation after generation.

    The peculiarly English style of politics is essentially one that involves private citizens or groups of such individuals. This, and only this, is the very meaning of parliamentary government.

    Cecil Rhodes was a private citizen who conquered foreign countries. The American billionaires are private citizens who rule foreign countries by means of an inferior class of professional politicians.

    German liberalism, on the other hand, is ethically valueless. It merely says “No!” to the state, and is unable to justify its opposition by offering equally high-minded and vigorous positive- suggestions.”— Spengler

    Any man who disrespects the priesthood is justified in his skepticism. Any man who disrespects the martial monarchy and martial nobility, or the field marshal has no idea how difficult it is to hold those positions and the sacrifice that those positions demand, and how cheap the luxury of those positions, and how necessary the rewards in order to entice men into retaining them.

    Until we free ourselves of Abrahamism, we will be defeatable by Abrahamism. We have been defeated once. We are in the process of being defeated a second time. We will only be resistant to defeat if we ourselves are not vulnerable to it. The chinese are not vulnerable. They have been right all along. We want to rule others. It’s profitable. But undomesticated human animals are impossible to rule. We must be content with ruling ourselves.

    Valerian a flop? let me help you. french humor isn’t funny, it’s stupid. french drama isn’t dramatic it’s pathetic. french action isn’t tense, it’s boring. I had this arguments with a popular french art historian who was offended why we only sold remakes of french films in america. There is a deep effeminacy in french psychology that is simply impossible to see upon self reflection. one has to have the mind of a woman to find any interest in french cinema. If you study french plays (I have a bit) you understand where the tradition comes from. It’s like shakespeare and sherlock holmes in the english. And it has been a few decades since I studied this subject and understood the french arts, but I remember it well enough to say that french culture was too much affected by the farce, the plays, the operas and in particular the costumery, and all this nonsense lives on today in french like Henry V and MacBeth live on today in the english speaking world. Not because we watch them. But because everything we watch is an imitation of them.
