Abraham’s willingness to sacrifice his “one begotten son,” proving his faith in god, symbolizes the necessary sacrifice of genes to memetic demands – usurpation of genealogy by memeology.
In effect, the individual’s survival submits to demands of the survival of the dogma, i.e., ideology. [ MANifesto: Word Wars – Gene & Meme Dynamics]
The act itself indicates that Isaac is not truly Abraham’s son, no more than Sarah belongs to him, but is god’s creation and of his seed.
The gene/meme relationship is inverted, viz., instead of god being Abraham’s proxy, his projected idea/ideal, the narrative attempts to convince us that the reverse is the case – nihilism typically inverts the relationships of genes/memes into memes/genes, via the magical/mystical powers of semiotics, e.g., letters/numbers – logos: reason/reasons, i.e., motives focused by will. Language becomes the sharp tip of the individual’s will – only in this case only the lucid part of the mind/body synthesis, i.e., the ego; the ego uses semiotics to impose its abstractions upon the world, only in Abraham’s case – an a representational example of nihilistic methodologies – this is concealed by the narrative, i.e., words sequences, by blaming it on the abstraction itself – externalized projection of the ego’s self-idealization. Now Abraham’s essence, and needs/desires, become god’s needs/desires, expressed as demands; Abraham’s self-deceit is concealed through mysticism and obscurantism.

The tale of Abraham and Sarah - offered to the Pharaoh as his "sister" so as to be integrated the Egyptian hierarchy – ascend the hierarchies of a host; appropriating genes to conceal memes - since identity is inherited matrilineally the practice is an act of conquest – from the esoteric towards the exoteric.
Maleness – in this case represented by Abraham – is no more than a memetic proxy, and his “wife” is not truly his own, but belongs to god, i.e., the dogma, ideology, represented by an idol/icon; Sarah is truly his “sister”, as both he and her are both “god’s chosen children”.
We can identify Abraham as the idol/icon’s representational avatar – its proxy (inverted sequence) – of an idealized zombie – a body possessed, mesmerized, taken over, by a spirit, i.e., an abstraction (meme), source of a cognitive dis-ease – here un-ese indicating dissonance, internal/external disparity, conflict, schizophrenia/neurosis, discomfort.
He becomes an example to be emulated by all those seeking relief from their own body’s limitations, e.g., its mortality; its experience of existence as need/suffering; its spatial/temporal exposure to change, i.e., interactivity; its relationship and how it compares with other bodies, as this is made aware to the mind (emergent self-consciousness) i.e., how it relates and compares with other genealogical pasts etc.

Samson and Delilah is interesting in that its an inversion of the usual roles. The Israelite's have an unstoppable warrior and the Philistines(Aegeans) only way of defeating him is by using a seductress that exposes his vulnerabilities.

Feminine warfare necessitates feminine methods - language being a feminine tool/weapon.

Feminization of Man = emasculation, and Abrahamism/Marxism/Postmodernism. .

>Modernism = secularism (atheism), individualism (man with no past, i.e. memetic man, man of ideology) = Americanism, viz., next stage of modernism towards postmodernism - in agreement with modern principles.
Postmodernism is modernism pushed to its logical limits.

>The aprasite-meme sells Americanism as its messianic mission to "save mankind" - via money - but practices strict tribalism, to the level of elitism where all other deities are "false gods" - contrary to Hellenism which did not, but only claimed that its own were superior. 
In Hellenism the gods of other cities, tribes, peoples, races, were not false - this is Hellenic cosmopolitanism that is antithetical to the modern version of Globalization, as a cover for Americanism.

>Death of god - one-god - signifies a disillusionment with the absolute. The cosmos failed to deliver the singularity, e.g., the absolute, certainty, wholeness, universal morality, so man shall create the absolute linguistically, but what is of words cannot endure in a world that cares not for words. The ideal cannot survive in the real without a mind - if not god's then man's.
Man shall become god - but this necessitates free-will which may who claim to be Nieatzchean deny, as even a partial probability - deny it absolutely.   

>Evola's ten traits identifying the overman imply free-will.
An overcoming of the body, without denying it.
An overcoming of man's temporality - his resentment of that which makes him possible but also condemns him to a mortal existence.
The extreme of this - absoluteness - is nihilism, viz., the absolute semiotic negation of the body, i.e., past, nature as the sum of all previous nurturing; past made present as appearance - phyiscal. 

>The two pars of man is that of the body and that of the mind - action/logos, real/ideal: gene/meme.

Parasites linguistically manipulate memes to gain control of their fate via the mediation of an-other, i.e., host.
Words are a source of power over others who can be affected semiotically, so as to protect themselves from a world that cannot be affected semiotically.

Parasite-meme

The organism has no clue it is infested by a nihilistic meme urging it to act in self-destructive ways, that propagate the meme even if they destroy - sacrifice - the genes carrying them.

In symbiotic circumstances nihilistic memes are using to subvert the host''s genetically informed innate impulses, zombifying a host which serves as a proxy for the propagation of an alien symbiont.
In memetic contexts nihilism serves as such a subversive, undermining, ideology, gradually reducing the infected host into a confused, suicidal, automaton, serving another's will, i.e., another agency's survival and reproductive strategies.
When the utility of the host has run tis course another host is infected - see how China will become the new host, beginning the cycle that ended America and Rome.


America's subversion began with Bernays and his application of Freud's techniques, culminating in the Frankfurt School the '60's, when undermining America's Protestant identity reached fruition with the Baby Boomers coming of age.
Generations raised on psychotherapy and New York urban ideals, continuously delivered through pop-music, Hollywood productions and American media outlets in a steady undermining stream of nihilism, culminating in the current "Cancel Culture" is but an echo of that cultural explosion.
America's individualism and tis culture-of-no-culture offered no resistance. In fact, it was the ideal ground for such nihilistic ideals to flourish and bear fruit in the 21st century.
Presently there is nothing left to resists the rise of China traditional authoritarianism.
American hyper-individualism is being replaced by China's hyper-collectivism - evidence that dreams of anarchy were misguided and naïve.

History, like the cosmos, repeats, but never in exactly the same way. I wonder what form China's subversion will take, and how long can a 3000 year old culture resist? How will it proceed? By corrupting its ancient language? By attacking tis family structures, via the feminine? By promoting pornography and dysfunctional sexuality in its populace?
Parasite meets a hyper-host.

Parasitism always undermines and deteriorates the host it infests with the very methods it used to evade detection, infiltrate and gradually take over its processes.
By the time it realizes that what it has done will lead to tis own death, it is too late.
But, the intent here is not for the survival of the particular parasite, but of its kind....

This also applies to aprasitical-memes.
The methods of infiltrating, evading detection and dominating a host's institutions inevitable undermine its virility, and lead to deterioration and death....and there's no turning back, even when some realize that what they have done to the very insinuations they destroyed or have taken over is causing their own demise.
Trump was such an awakening.
They woke too late to the fact that their methods of making the world safe for them is causing the inevitable end of the very host they depended upon.

Selfish memes....
If the meme survives - returning to its crystalline stage - then the parasite has done its work...
[see phases of genetically based parasitical reproductive cycles and imagine how they apply to memetics, i.e., ideologies, dogmas etc.]

Gene to Meme

If we wish to find a correspondence in a field that has never ben developed then the lifecycle of a memetic parasite will correspond to that of genetically based parasites.

The "egg" phase is when the meme returns to its semiotic original form, before it infected the mind of a host, beginning its cycle of reproduction.
In a host like a cow the parasite is expelled through fecal matter - corresponding to money - where it waits to infest the next host.
In the case of smaller organisms, like an ant, the organism is completely destroyed.  
So, a host the size of America, for example, would have minimal disturbances by this infestation, but if the cow were old or injured then it may suffer a an accelerated death.

There are types of parasites that produce zombification even in large hosts, such as moose.
Once a aprasitical-meme enters the mind it gradually takes over and zombifies the host - making it suicidal, like what is currently happening to the Aglo-Puritans in the US and around the world, viz., behaving in ways that lead to their own extinction because they've been infected and zombified by a foreign agency, in the form of an ideology/dogma - a world-view.

How is an alien agency exposed?
By what it is willing and unwilling to do.
When an alien agency does not give a shit about the host it has infested it does to tis children, its foundational institutions what it would never do to its own kind.
It promotes immigration that it would never allow in its own nation; it undermines family and group cohesion; it corrupts language and markets pornography and corruptive ideologies to the host nation's woman and children.
All in the name of some high ideal, but motivated by a desire to remain safe and concealed....

This is how the Anglo sphere turned liberal - crypto-marxist - involved itself in wars that had zero value to its security and interests, sending its youth to die for no reason at all, adopting anti-family, anti-identity, anti-nature ideals; gradually becoming self-destructive by accepting ethnicities into its borders that had no relation with its founding peoples; becoming shamed of itself, of tis own love of family, its own mothers corrupted by the idea that it hid a sexual desire, making its populace turn to psychotherapy for decades, to drugs.... and on and on...
Then, when the need is near, refusing to identify with what it once passionately declared to be a part of.

This too has been repeated in history...but never in exactly the same way.

The disadvantage of parasitism is that it is entirely dependent on the host it uses as proxy - mediator - between itself and the world.
Once the host's power begins to wane the parasite is in trouble, and can do little to stop what will happen to it.
Its fate inexorably tied up with that of the host.

It's advantage?
It maintains a distance between itself and reality, and can easily find a replacement host since it is never loyal to any one host, but only in as much as it has invested time and effort to conceal itself within it, and the time and effort it has already dedicated to corrupting its processes.

Parasitical-memes remain obscure and vague precisely because they must adapt and reinvent themselves, from host to host.

For example, its German variant, leading to the Second World War, necessitated a change when it was transmitted to the US and its different demographics and aesthetics, and it will morph again if it hope to survive, in its next host.
The process is already underway.
The radical shift towards postmodernism, in the works since the end of the war - culminating with the '60's - indicates a radical adaptation to a comin new world order.
It's identification with "white America" will be renounced in preparation for a new identification with the ruling elite of its new host.

Civ was the result of domestication that made possible sufficient asymmetric production, that the hyperconsumption, maladaptation, and dysgenia of females could be domesticated.

Does a parasite need to know what it is doing to the host?
Does it need to understand how its behaviour will inevitably kill the host and it, as well?
No.
Selfish meme.
In fact, to know and understand would severely hamper its effectiveness, if not completely inhibit it.

Ignorance is essential - self-deciet is a survival adaptation.
What matters is only the perpetuation of the meme, i.e., ideology, dogma.
The ideology contains the motive the strategy the impulse to self-propagate.
In effect, the organism acting parasitically, is but a carrier. It is a medium for the propagation of the meme.
It, itself, is infested by it.
Ergo, the most effective memetic parasites are a symbiosis of genes - carier - and meme - dogma, ideology.
It is the host which is the victim, even if victim identity may be claimed by the symbiont as part of its strategy.

They tried to destroy Russia, before Putin put a stop to it, as they tried before Stalin came along.
This is what they do.

Evidence that America's elite is splintered and all this turmoil is part of infighting.

Who controls Hollywood and media?
The left?
Nah.....an ethnicity.
It is a faction of this same ethnicity - represented in the clip - that is afraid that those decades of undermining America has exposed them to a greater danger.

After opening the borders to all they realized that along with Mestizos and Africans some undesirable elements that shared their level of fanaticism, and with a similar messianic mindset, were also being allowed in - see the democratic party and which turban wearing women frighten them.
The parasite must kill the host and along with it itself....but a parasite is not self-aware, humans are...so it never doubts itself, it never questions its genetic impulses, but humans can wake up and question their memetic impulses - this is a meme-poarasite, and it is the human carrier that must sacrifice itself to propagate the meme, the ideology/dogma, so it isn't always as reliable as genetic programming can be.
Here iut is the meme which si selfish, and the carrier - parasite - must sacrifice itself for the survival of the meme. They call it a "burden" themselves.
This is the radical component of this kind of survival and reproductive strategy. The meme chose them....and they entered a mutually beneficial covenant with it. "It" being an abstraction of their collectivity which they concealed in the concept of god.

See how genes can contradict and reject memes...

What is happening here when one of the tribe turns against the ADL?
A rejection of the usual cycle.
A segment wants to preserve the host, as they drain it....hoping to survive, refusing to sacrifice themselves to repeat the cycle - a cycle they've encoded in prophetic terms.
They must suffer to remain true to their identity.
suffering is part of their historical heritage, repeated ove the centuries.

We are coming to such a point in history when one host must be abandoned in order to find a new one, and a segment of them, represented by Trump - refuses to go through with it. They want to live on in a diminishing United states of America. The majority doesn't want to remained tied to a dying empire, having already adopted the Chinese model as their own.

This is one of the side-effects of parasitism and crypsis. When the parasite conceals itself within a host it is affected by this process.
The very method of concealment infect the parasite with the host's essence...its DNA...and its memes, i.e., the host's principle ideals and morals. Through imitation the actor is affected by the personae he is depicting.
This can become problematic when it is time to drop the act and become the original.
We are seeing this on a grand scale...a segment of the elites that dominated the US after the two great wars are now dropping the façade and reverting to their origins, whereas a small segment cannot, having become habituated with the act they have forgotten who they are, refusing to admit that it was ever an act.

The irony here is painful.

Postmodernism is rooted in Abrahamism...as is Marxism.
The idea/ideal of a soul, separate from the mortal body; the idea of words usurping deeds, or abstractions being more real than the tangible; the magical power of words...all find their roots in Abrahamic occultism: Judaism, Christianity, Islam.

The parasite need not know it is a parasite. in fact if it were aware of tis nature its strategy would lose effectiveness.
Parasitical ideologies only need an agent to carry them from host to host.
Then their automatic innate programming takes over, gradually disconnecting the host from its environment - Zombification.
I can imagine such a process as being experienced as pleasant, because the experience of existing is as need/suffering, and all distractions are pleasant - like intoxication or drug use....it feels wonderful because it disconnects the mind form the source of tis suffering and anxieties, the uncertain, fluctuating, mostly unknown/unknowable cosmos. Though it feels good it gradually destroys the one intoxicated, after obsessive/addiction imposes upon the will an impulse it cannot resist.

Nihilistic memes - ideologies, dogmas - are the equivalent of chemical intoxication - accomplishing the same euphoric detachment via semiotics - via words, language, symbols...memes.
It is self-propagating. it carries the means of its own drive to infect....so the host need not be aware of anything.
Awareness of reality is there antidote to its intoxicating detachments - like a cold shower shocking the mind back into sobriety.
Intoxication is warm...like a bath one settles into and then gradually drifts to sleep and drowns.
Reality is anathema to the addicted, obsessive, nihilist. They refuse to acknowledge the objectively real because it ruins their buzz.
An infected mind has no clue it is infected by a mental infestation. It thinks it is normal, aware, lucid...
You see them questioning the nature of reality, of how to discern the real form the dream world....this is a sign, a symptom of infection.
Words have no meaning. The world loses meaning, and they like it to stay that way.
They like the high, calling it "enlightenment" or a transcendence of consciousness or something absurdly nonsensical like that.
The addict always finds ways to justify his drug use.

The process is gradual...so first complex concepts are detached form reality, in the name of philosophical discourse, of course...and then male female is detached....and we've descended into madness one well-meaning step at a time.
Eventually we deny our own senses, because we no longer trust how the intoxication has blurred our vision...so it must be a universal condition. What appears to be different is not...it must be the same, or illusory.
High on meme drugs nothing is as it appears to be.
Meanwhile the parasite drains the host dry, causing tis own demise.

Find which meme has experienced such historical near extinction events and has integrated them into tis identity.
That is the carier - the symbiont...like the fly that bites the deer, infecting it with a parasite.
The parasite is nihilism - and it comes in many variants because it changes when it infects a host - we know this from how Covid has evolved.

the parasite, carrier, need not be aware of what it is doing, as well.
It benefits from the symbiotic relationship with the nihilistic virus, as the virus does, ergo there is symbiosis, whereas the host perishes.
So, this "covenant" compels the parasite to behave ni ways that eventually result ni tis death, after it has propagated - part of tis reproductive cycle.
The virus benefits because it spreads from host to host.
As long as the meme survives the sacrifice of the carier/parasite, is inconsequential and part of the cost, the price, the "burden".
So, the carrier - parasite - experiences this detachment from reality as part of its mystical enlightenment - its euphoric state of transcendence and cannot understand why anybody would rejects this. It is a gift....a gift it gives to the world. It feels victimized for being altruistic and generous.
Chosen to be what the world hates, for no reason at all.

An evolution in the gene/meme synthesis - inverting the sequence to meme/gene.

For the carrier/parasite - symbiont - the benefit is that it need not engage the world directly but through a proxy - the parasite enters the host's body, concealing itself as if ti belongs there and then feeds off the host, who must feed on the real - on the sun.
The host acts as a shelter for the parasite which gradually loses its ability to survive outside a host.
This is one of the costs - dependence.

We realize why free-will is so deplorable - to any degree - to those infected, to the carriers and to the hosts.
It's will is dominated by an external agency, i.e., the meme, the ideology/dogma.
Rejection also claims innocence - ignorance is innocence - so remaining intoxicated, and oblivious is crucial in retaining innocence, which becomes the foundation of victim psychology.
It's intentions are good so whatever negative collateral effects it produces, all unforeseeable negativity, is not intentional, ergo it is innocent, wrongly accused.

Side note:
Notice how the carrier/parasite is known for tis neurosis and made psychoanalysis a fad that characterizes modern and postmodern lifestyles.

Then there's the rarest mind parasite propagated from mind to mind linguistically - semiotic parasite.
Once it takes over the mind gradually detaches from reality - zombification.

Their true enemy was never their religious brethren. They were simply their competitors which they could easily outmatch because they were a product of their world-view.
Their true enemy were the Europeans - Indo-Euroepans - with a world-view antithetical to their own.

How does the parasite expose itself?
Though it appears and behaves as belonging to the adopted in-group it behaves in ways that undermine the in-group's survival and propagation; it says one thing, thinks a second, and does a third; it promotes to its own - its true in-group - the opposite of what it promotes towards its declared in-group; it cultivates among the youth principles and ideals it refuses to cultivate to its own; its loyalties are only as strong as the host's excess energies, its wealth and power; it strives to remain obscure and duplicitous rather than open and honest, adopting a mystical language - names and symbols - of feigned complexity and unknown depths of implied untapped powers, rather than of simplicity; it pretends to be what it is not, and an never be, and then quickly and easily rejects it ever was that which it once vehemently pretended to be; it is opportunistic, like a female, jumping from man to man, according to shifts in power balances; it destroys that which it pretends to value, undermining that it pretends to be supporting; it claims to be the victim of that which it is victimizing; it cries and pleads when discovered, seeking refuge is morality and man’s natural sympathetic instincts.

Krypsis is a fundamental aspect of parasitism, whether it be natural - genetically based - or ideological - memetically based.

How long have I been posting about this mental dis-ease, this meme-virus?
How long have I been identifying it as semiotic, i.e., linguistic, spreading from mind to mind via words/numbers?
How long have I identified a specific parasite that has entered, a long, long time ago, into a symbiosis with this virus because both benefit from this "covenant"?

Well....watch it in practice.

Nietzsche identified this meme-virus as nihilism, attacking only one variant, Christianity.
He was the first diagnostician, though he did not trace it back to its origins, i.e., the emergence of self-consciousness, and he certainly did not even come close to imagining a parasitical symbiosis with nihilism, using it to break down the defences of the host it infested and drove to its grave, completing its life cycle for yet one more time; using it as concealment to infiltrate and propagate.
Nil, is their god, though they do not know it, or would admit.
Nil, as a defence against the indifferent "injustices" of natural order, seducing all those who sought and seek relief.....even in self-deception.

See its effects?
What is the identifying characteristic of this parasite-meme, also characterising other, genetically based, parasites?
Google them and see them in action.
It infiltrates a host, masking itself as being a part of it, as belonging, and then gradually takes it over from the inside - slowly disconnecting it from itself, form its environment, from its nature, from its senses, causing it to behave in self-destructive, suicidal, ways.
In the process it condemns itself to death, because these parasites cannot survive outside a host, as a proxy.
They return to their inert form, awaiting a new host to infiltrate and begin the process, again.....and again.

See it killing the host it infiltrated not so long ago - a host named USA?
See how it is disconnecting from reality, entering a state of zombification, when it no longer recognizes anything tangible as being real, entering into a coma, called esotericism, solipsism, inter-subjectivity...disconnecting from the world, behaving in ways that contradict its original survival strategy, as if it were going insane, turning inward?
The dying fo0llow a similar process as they fall towards death.
Haven't the Protestants already committed cultural suicide?
What remains of the original WASPS that established the American experiment?
Are they not cultivating self-destructive convictions, denying their very identity, disconnecting form their heritage?

Let's not get confused.
The parasite did not create this mental virus, it simply accepted it and made it part of its identity.
The virus itself emerges spontaneously, from an organic need to protect life from its own developing awareness; protecting itself from itself.
It's not the first time the body produces its own demise: cholesterol, schizophrenia, diabetes, multiple sclerosis....nihilism...
Nihilism is how the ego attempts to protect itself from itself, viz., ego seeking refuge behind a semiotic wall of denial and negation.
Life preserving itself, at the cost of consciousness.
How much truth can a mind endure before it can take no more, fearing that it may break into pieces.....finding a solution in this fragmentation?
How close to objectivity can a subjective mind approach before it is shattered?

Judas Goat


Krypsis....it pretends to be one of the sheeple, but it leads them to their slaughter.
It may even associate itself with them.
It feels at home among sheeple so it contributes to creating them for the shepherd.

It fears wolves.
It cannot pretend to be a wolf.
Their scent exposes them.

Superstitions are metaphysics for dim-wits and women; the paranormal, supernatural, occult is metaphysics for mid-wits and cowards. This is where the parasite-meme seeks concealment, finds its opportunity. It corrupts what is vaguely held in the mind, obscurely defined and described defensiveness towards existential unpredictability and the unknown.
Anxiety has already reduced resistance and a mind is ready for any comforting concept, no matter how irrational – in fact the more irrational it is the more comfort it offers.
Here the parasite finds its needed lowest-common-denominator to appropriate, using it to conceal itself in its shadows, corrupting and manipulating it in order to exploit its targeted host.

An example of another parasite-meme:

Reminder that Indians have been trying to colonize Europe for over 1000 years.

The Gypsies are a nomadic band of (largely) Indian descent known for human trafficking and theft.

Parasitical ideologies/dogmas naturally develop a victim psychology and philosophy – seductive to all victims in all circumstances. They may also develop a victim-based scripture full of negative prophesies. They intuitively know that their parasitical ways will eventually be violently rejected, and discovered, no matter how cleverly they are concealed, and how subtle they’ve become. They know this and accept this as the risk, the “burden”, the cost of being who thye are.
Remember identity is action, i.e., more precisely interaction. Actions are expression of essence: will, judgment, and choice. They expose the nature of the actor.
Though self-awareness may reduce effectiveness, some members of the practical-meme may become self-aware enough to acknowledge who and what they are, and what survival and reproductive strategies they’ve adopted, chosen, accepted knowing the risks and costs. I conclude that to cope with this self-awareness they would have evolved a set of prophesies, foreseeing what is inevitable, i.e., that their parasitism would be discovered and that, time after time, there would be hell to pay; unforeseeable consequences. [ MANifesto: Word Wars – Diagnosis – Virus-Meme – Parasite-Meme]
It would be inevitable that, over time, such recurring “Armageddon”, i.e., end of the world, events would become part of the parasite-meme’s scripture, part of tis sacred texts; reliable because of precedent, and predictable, because there is no will to change these practices – of course these prophetic declarations would take the form of ambiguity so as to be applicable to whatever historical circumstances produce them, and they would be entirely predictable, since they are founded on precedent and continuity, the inevitability, or the risk/cost of practising parasitism, which can then be manipulate dot reinforce the divinity, the universal sanctioning of these parasitical practices.
