PostSubject: Re: Nihilism Nihilism - Page 7 EmptyTue Nov 15, 2022 8:18 am


Nihilism = absence of absolutes - including Abrahamic god - universal ethics, a cosmic purpose to justify need/suffering, considered a 'negative' rather than a 'positive,' giving space and credence to man's agency - his free-will.

Nihilism = a reaction to man's merging self-cosnciuosness - As man begins to know himself he experiences a second source of need/suffering, in addition to the physical, he experiences mental despair, psychological insecurity brought about by objectivity, intruding upon his animalistic subjectivity - blissful ignorance; the innocence of beasts where ignorance is equated with innocence - loss of innocence as described in biblical narratives as the 'loss of paradise,' i.e., Eden.
Religious nihilism, i.e., Abrahamism, Buddhism, progresses towards ideological nihilism - spiritual to secular - i.e., Marxism, Postmodernism.
Nihilism is the mental disease parasitically exploited by Abrahamism, selling abstract nullifications of existence in the form of a 'corrective alternative,' a 'healing of the world.'

Positive nihilism offers cosmic corrections that nullify existence, whereas pure negative nihilism embraces the nil, and worships it as the world's correction through its destruction.
Binary = 1/0 - one/nil - two sides of the same absolutist nihilistic coin, offering redemption.
Coin = a representational code of exchange sanctioned by the collective through a human authority, abstracted into a divine being.
Being correcting becoming.

Nihilism is seductive to the vulnerable, the lost, the desperate - and all men experience this at some point in their lives, most becoming trapped there for a lifetime.
Despair finds comfort in degeneracy - hedonism for its own sake.

Lack of trust both in other people and in oneself increases the need for nihilism - the foundation of Abrahamic religions.

Nihilism evolves.....and due to its method it can evolve into a multiplicity of forms.
Its only restriction is human imagination and its appeal to a multiplicity - it must construct alternatives that will seduce, coerce, bribe, as many desperate degenerates as possible, because it needs to construct and maintain an alternate reality within a world it rejects and wishes to "correct" or "escape" linguistically.
The range of its power is determined by the range of its linguistic appeal - popularity.

This is a difficult task to start anew, so most variants are adjustments of pre-existing, established, tried and tested nihilistic dogmas/ideologies: Abrahamism is not replaced but adapted, replacing its tropes - the words/symbols associated with them - with new updated ones.
The words/symbols change - are upgraded - but their references remain the same, offering the same relief to the same types of psychologies dealing with the same kind of insecurities/anxieties.

Abraham's 'god concept' did not die, it changed names and garments; its messiah concept did not perish, nor did its eternal life, and innocence....they simply changed monikers; evil/good were not transcended they were baptized and reborn using updated imagery, e.g., Nazis, left/right...

Political Nihilism

Man, as with a wolf pack, has a social Hierarchy that is represented by Politics. The 'average' male becomes subordinated to the pack's morality and social behaviors. Most males cannot survive alone, so need the pack to survive. A small minority of males, more resilient/cunning/stronger can survive alone, and this lends to attitudes of Indifference and Choice. A small subsection of males are 'free' (to leave), while most are not. Most are Dependent.

Political-Left = State-worship, Statism
Political-Right = Church-worship, Religion

The political-Right's subversion and display of loyalty (to the Church) is much more obvious than the Left. The Abrahamic/Christian must prostrate and submit himself to God, and then, his "freedom" is granted back to him. This is the "Deterministic" ideology of humanity; a submission and admitted inferiority to "God".

The political-Left's subversion is more cunning, manipulated by "Secular" tactics, which offers "freedom" through a proposed Individuality/Independence, which is actually fueled by Commercialism and Manufactured Consent (Bernays). The Left are lulled and lured into a false-freedom, the sense that they are "in control" while they actually have no real power, politically, socially, culturally, or practically. This is why America, the "Freest" country in human history supposedly, has almost none of its inhabitants supporting "Free-Will" when confronted intellectually. They don't actually believe in Free-Will....because they are Not free. This immediately bleeds into the notion of victim-mentality, who can be the biggest victims, and therefore 'win' the State's rewards, monetary, culturally, welfare. The Left is sold its own Slavery; and there is never a shortage of demand for it (false security).

By comparison, the Statist approach is more sophisticated and nuanced, yet perhaps more extensive in its Deprivations. Because believing you are free, when you're not, is the most dangerous proposition, by comparison to the Right where their subservience is an act of Admittance, and even Pride. The Right are proud to be Slaves to God. The Left is never proud, not even when they gain majority control of their society's political control.


In both cases, Nihilism is stoked by a deprivation of Meaning and Purpose in life. The Right admit this by being 'assigned' their purpose from God. They admit, if there were no God, then their lives would be purposeless. So this Nihilism is more obvious. But the Left, believe that their service to the State, is the essence of their lives. To be...a policeman, a soldier, a doctor, an engineer, to have a "job" is where the brunt of the meaning of their lives is. So think this through...if a society is healthy, then the doctor grows bored. If a society is lawful, then the policeman grows bored. If a society is peaceful, then a soldier grows bored. The traditional 'purpose' and meaning of a Statist's life is measured by the demand of their Job within it. So a more successful society, fulfilled, Abundant, becomes nihilistic, and then decadent/hedonistic. Its previous 'purpose' in life, its previous jobs, previous meaning, all are dependent on the demands by the State. Without this demand, there is no Meaning, no Purpose.

This is the political Left's spiritual antagonism and aggravation, which cannot be sated.

Just as they are not Free, so too do they have no "real" meaning nor purpose in life.

The Left, as with the Right, are dependent upon a "higher power" to grant them such, hence their name: Proles.

Whatever diverts or directly contradicts the collective narrative - the core principles of Americanism and nihilism - is dismissed as a expression of hatred or fear - a phobia.
This is how they project the motived underlying their acquiescence and parroting of shared, comforting, lies.
Reality itself is now approached with great anxiety, so that when someone exposes it, they are accused of being afraid of the myths constructed to protect the collective from it.
Reality is reduced to a moral issues - meaning a collective agreement, a shared myth, only haters and those fearful of the collective would expose as a shared lie.
For the collective everything must become a lie, or a social construct, so as to conceal their own convictions and their underlying motives.

Ironically – irony being a linguistically based paradox – the source of modern/postmodern nihilism, in the so-called western world, is the spiritual child of Abrahamism, against which the Renaissance rebelled and eventually supplanted, replacing tis terminologies and eliminating its unnecessarily divisive god concept. What they resisted and replaced was the last barrier to uniform universality, substituting the concept with the biologically founded concept of humanity, i.e., humanism. The measure of all things would be human, rather than the cultural idealization of human, i.e., god. Yet, humanity may have been more inclusive but it no longer sufficed – following the logic of its own dogma – because it maintained a speciation exclusivity founded no logos: man had a soul because only man could speak; whereas other species were excluded simply because they could not use nor appreciate logos. This final distinction had to be eliminated to achieve perfect uniform universality; perfect equality and equity. To dismiss this would be a contradiction of the values and principles inherent in Abrahamism and all forms of nihilism; secular or spiritual.
Today the one-god (Judaism, Christianity, and Islam) has been replaced by humanity (Marxism, Socialism, and Trashumanism), and this has progressed to replacing humanity with a pure abstraction: oneness, wholeness, universe/universal, order etc. All concepts abstract enough to imply anything, and still maintain the idea of inclusivity, uniformity, universality – rejecting all concepts that imply some kind of distinction, and divisiveness, resulting in conflict and superior-inferior conclusion. At the same time what is excluded is chaos as its ‘evil’ antagonist – properly defined (evil excluded by its goodness) because all identities require an-other to define and to distinguish them as other-than.

I can believe that comment below if we all turn into global citizens and IQ drops drastically....But I think that's very nihilistic to think that the best of mankind couldn't make a distinction between let's say Greek mythology vs Harry Potter

That's like saying 1000 years from now everyone will think hip-hop is classical music

And historical revisionism will claim Egypt was established by negroes, and some of Alexander's men were, in fact black, because they saw it in old movies.
Nihilism blurs the line between symbols/words and reality.
What is in the head - mind - is more real than what is in the world.

How to counteract every nihilistic variant, from Abrahamism to Marxism, and from Liberalism to Postmodernism:

Always begin with the act.
Even if not completely understood the act is observable, experienced, sensory.

First came the act.....language evolved later, to name the act.
The act is presence, perceived - subjectively interpreted - as appearance.
Everything apparent is significant....exposing the essence of otherness.

Appearance is not restricted to the visual, though for humans and many species, the visual is primary; but appearance includes all sensory input.

The unknown neither proves nor disproves anything.
Omniscience is not necessary for the establishment of probability, if it remains objective and not corrupted by subjective needs/desires.

If you were god, would you love everything?
Then what value would your love have?

Females are not supposed to lead; they follow and nurture what is provided to them. This makes them the perfect natural agencies; the perfect filters.
Women cannot innovate, because they cannot challenge authority - like nature; they can only contribute, make better, add, preserve, imitate.

God, as you understand the concept, does not exist; just as morality, the way you've been trained to understand the concept, does not exist; just as love, the way you've been trained to understand it, does not exist.
you've been brainwashed....or indoctrinated into a way of thinking.
Nihilism.
Abrahamic is the source of western nihilism; Marxism is its secular evolution.

A nihilist is a failed and disappointed idealist who, after wallowing in his disillusionments for a period of time has discovered a more certain telos, replacing a once positive ideal with the nil. His skepticism becomes an expression of his faith in what can never disappoint him.

Authoritarianism of the left: collectivism – truth through communal approval and decree, e.g., Catholicism, Islam, and Marxism.
Humanity is god, creator of worlds, giver of meaning and purpose.
In ancient times the ‘power of a god’ was measured by the number of people that worshipped her/him; a singular god is, therefore, an omnipotent god only if all worship it – inter-subjectivity. Collective might makes right.

Authoritarianism of the right: individualism – there is no truth, all is subjective. Every man lives in his own private reality exploiting those who do not, or cannot – dependence is a weakness that can be exploited.
Individual is god, channelling some divine power independent from all mediators, e.g., Judaism, Protestantism, Wokism, and Americanism.
An end of Abraham's totalitarian one-god implies that Humanity as god, is all that is left – to the left – therefore god's demise must be substituted with an absolute abstractions to maintain an independent connection to divine power that gives the individual his god-like powers – the individual is always right - to the right; every man a representation of the divine, creator of his own morals, truths, values. Individual might makes right.

Transcending Right/Left socioeconomic, political binaries.
Authority of Realism: synthesis, i.e., individual as extension of a collective.
Superior knowledge, understanding, applied and tested – precedent – increases authority. Authority is never absolute but limited, and contingent, requiring constant affirmation - meritocracy.
Reality, i.e., world, nature, is the final arbiter – indifferent and not entirely predictable, i.e., ordered. Right makes might.

Among the Left, their war against individuality is reflected in the "Anti-fascist" segment, Antifa, "against all Tyrants and Fascists" (who are Individuals).

While American Liberalism Ethos is steeped in the 'rugged cowboy individualist' and brave settlers, clearing the way to the West Coast, European Socialism crossed the Atlantic to New York and Washington DC...then the Marxists followed closely behind.

The 'culture war' in America is between individualism and society, how either can "determine" their future at odds with the other. Can America remain as an exaltation of Individualism, or will it collapse to these Socialist-Marxist-Communist alien forces, which desire at the root to impose their own Collectivism on top of America: Globalism?

The Globalist forces are prevailing, because there is nowhere left remaining for the American "individual" to back against a wall and fight. All spaces, and virtual spaces, are drying up.

If he is a stranger in the world who does not know what there is in it, no less of a stranger is he who does not know how things go in it.
Alienation is just as much a product of human interventions – ideologically, dogmatically attempting to humanize nature – as it is a product of individual choice, seeking a way to absolve oneself from responsibility.
Strangeness, weirdness, queerness becomes a badge of pride, when shame, and guilt, is what is being evaded.
An external factor, agency, cause, must become the liable factor for all that ails an individual’s life. They would rather remain strangers to existence than to accept responsibility for their own existence.

Defensive nihilism.
Unable to change the world physically, to accord with their ideal, they change their conception of the world in their mind, and then refuse to question themselves.
The idea of adapting oneself to the world is the mark of a degenerate that has given up and is now content o live in his head - demanding only that the social collective support and protect him as he turns inward.
All must become a social construct so as to justify this desire to change the world in the mind, linguistically, one word at a time.

No shame.
No values other than degeneracy.
No ethics.

Materialistic, hedonistic with a sense of entitlement.
They deserve, without earning.
