Uncuck Yourself

“To modern or ‘moral’ orientation, to the feminine, docile, oriental, self-effacing culture such as ours it is shocking. These shocking and refreshing statements in the Iliad regarding the hero’s unashamed, frank desire not only for plunder and adventure, but for immortal fame, undying fame. When I've mentioned it on Twitter and such, I was given stern lectures and finger wagging by serious traditional men: ‘A serious man does not pursue fame. No, no, no, you are good, you are above that.’

The Path of Vitality and Action
(you must understand)

“I’m trying to explain why in my book and elsewhere I don’t promote the ‘contemplative man’ but instead the path of vitality and action.

I’ll give you one example to explain this… The famous sculptor, Benvenuto Cellini, is one of my heroes. I use his Perseus statue as my banner photo b/c it represents everything I aspire to.

This was an artist, a sculptor; a hybrid between a purely contemplative man and a man of action. He has a book called ‘My Life’.

We continue discussing Nietzsche essays regarding the Greks, this time with The Greek State. Wednesday 10am EST A copy of the essay can be found here:

On Buddhist Vitalism

“Buddhism is a powerful ally. Buddhism is NOT passivism. If you believe Buddhism is peace, you misunderstand the teaching of Buddha.

The early Buddhists were basically genocidal skinheads who wanted to wipe out most of the population of India. They wanted to annihilate everything that exists. It’s a philosophy of nihilistic purgation, of great cleansing.

Historically, the Tibetans had no hesitation. They created a medieval empire stretching into Siberia. They burned down the Chinese capital that went by the name

Never-Trumpism

“Remember how they understand Trump. He was elected by a population that finally wanted to bring some accountability and some security to a ruling class that had failed so badly in EVERYTHING it’s trying to do.

Remember, the economic gurus thought burning excess housing was one of the possible cures to the financial crisis in 2007/8. Gurus like Paul Krugman promoted the idea, in all seriousness, that you need a huge war or an alien attaq to jumpstart the economy.

What I’ve just told you (that digging a hole and filling

Treatment of Public Officials

“One big difference is how public officials were treated in ancient republics and democracies, as opposed to our own.

In ancient Athens, they executed or deported generals who lost battles. I don’t want to tell you what they would have done to a ruling class who starts wars of choice that they then lose.

Each official had to undergo an audit at the end of his term. If he refused or if they found them to have embezzled, I believe the penalty was death.

Homos in History

“A modern homo in Ancient Greece would not be allowed to vote, would not be allowed to speak in public, nor hold any public office.

There is ancient court case, Against Timarchus by Aeschines the speechwriter, that makes clear what the Athenian law was on such matters.

If you were debauched at ANY point in your life, even against your will, you lost all political rights. This seems cruel to us today. Even if something happened to you as a child, you would lose all political rights.

Furthermore, there would have been tremendous

Overcoming Torpor

“The French Revolution was a racial revolt - a slave racial revolt. (Gobineau points out most of France is pre-Aryan.)

Every problem of political life and every aristocracy in history (pretty much) is one biological caste ruling over another subordinate one. There are no exceptions to this.

(Nietzsche says the ancient Celt was absolutely blonde, but the Ancient Greek was well)

Now, after 1917, we live in the ongoing and never ending Aboriginal revolution. The great atavism of pre-Aryan longhouse. Of slum life.

Blond Greks

“There is a clear case of upper classes of ancient Greeks being blonde. Start with the fact that almost all their great heroes and gods are blonde or red haired. Achilles. Apollo. Aphrodite. Menelaus. And many others.

Of course, you hear many cope arguments against this.

These are (we are told) ‘idealizations’. This often comes from the same people who claim that the fizeeks of the Ancient Greek statues are also ‘idealizations’ and impossible.

As if you can’t go to the beach or gym and see fizeeks at that level of perfection or even

Parliamentary Democracy as Gangster Rule:

“The last entity capable, maybe, of openly breaking loose from this mafia network was Germany in WW1. If it had triumphed in WW1, then there would have been a shining example for the world of Hellenic culture and freedom to stand against the hidden tyranny; against this smothering modern mediocrity.

All the propaganda we hear: “since 1800 the world has made amazing progress b/c of liberal democracy”. That’s total garbage. Liberal Democracy is gangster rule.

Make no mistake, despite America’s

"I will tell you what's better. When Moses made the Hebrews into a people again. Or Lycurgus made the Spartans. Or Romulus and Numa made the Romans. They did not go around making appeals to ‘individuals’ and how ‘embracing your identity’ or ‘this or that identity is a fulfilling thing for you as an individual’. Nor as an act of freedom or this other kind of POMO, denatured Heideggerianism. No. They offered something intensely attractive. They offered the voice of God. The voice of GODS. They set people afire for a great task and destiny in
