New World Order

Samuel P. Huntington predicted in his book titles The Clash of Civilizations that the world would be divided, in a post-Cold War era, along cultural lines, i.e. Western, Orthodox Russian, Latin American, Islamic, African, Buddhist, Hindu, Sinic, Japanese.
Although he accurately divided the competing groups along memetic lines of distinction he failed to account for the genetic factor, represented by linguistic divisions = [You must be registered and logged in to see this link.]. Generally overlapping racial, and sub-racial categories.
If we eliminate the small-players and those that have become extinct – integrated and/or absorbed into more dominant groups, we can adjust Huntington’s memetic division, integrating into them genetic factors, represented by language families, i.e. tribal relatives. [ MANifesto: Society – Language] [ MANifesto: Tribalism – Tribes]
We must also account for cultural cross-contaminations, such as those that often occur when two cultures come in contact.
The big players are Afro-Asiatic, roughly corresponding to Huntington’s Islamic culture; Indo-Europeans, roughly corresponding to parts of what he defines as ‘Western,’ and also includes his Orthodox-Russian bloc and parts of his Hindu group; Sino-Tibetan corresponding to his Sinic, but also including his Buddhist cultural bloc.
Alexander Dugin would make a case for the inclusion with Western Europe into the same bloc, if we account for western contaminations by alien cultures.
Huntington’s intentional, or not, exclusion of the genetic component, roughly corresponding to linguistic family trees, as well as his focus on Modern socio-economic criteria, excluding the spiritual component in culture and in racial identities, offers as a corrupt blueprint of how some Americans view the world, and culture. It also provides a map of how the New World Order will unfold, towards Globalization, i.e., Americanization.



The chess pieces are in place.

Within the synthesis of language families and Huntington's cultural groups, we can find the beginning of what correspond to cellular membranes, separating distinct organisms.
A culture is a living breathing organism, and language is its neurological communication, transmitting data from genes to organs, i.e. institutions.
Each culture - SuperOrganism - evolves a particular relationship with existence and the natural world, reflected in its traditions, rituals, art, and primarily its language. Each tribe becoming a version of the organic species, just as a jackal and a fox are related to canines and wolves, and orang-utans and spider-monkey's are related to primates such as gorillas and chimpanzees.
From genes to memes - synthesis of body-mind - therefore each culture acquires its own method of surviving and propagating - its spirit of becoming.
Every 'individual' is as a cell in an organ, in a organism - sometimes oblivious of his place and function. like a cell does not know, cannot know, what it is, or within what it is, so too many humans have no clue about the part they are playing within larger schemes and functions. They simply know what feels 'good', what job they are expected to perform, how to reproduce, consume, breath, and die.
They sense a ‘greater’ will at work, ascribing it to a ‘God’, or to universal order, which is nothing more than the SuperOrganic engulfing them – body & mind. They sense, intuitively feel, as if someone is thinking for them, as if data is coming from somewhere without – an unspecified mystical realm they cannot see nor understand.

The meme is all-encompassing, like the one-god's omnipresence. It shapes their thoughts, the images they see in their heads when triggered, the automatic reactions to specific symbols/words.

What has characterized the closing of the last age is man as homo economicus, as some have called mankind's cultural identification with economic activities, centred around a polis, a city-state, that grew into a nation-state, and is now becoming a Super-State.
Economics recognizes no other identifier other than production and consumption - represented by the monetary binary numerical language.
This was the characteristic of the Cold War, a struggle over which kind of production/consumption model will govern the behaviour of homo economicus.
How you sold, what you sold, how much you sold, determined how you consumed, what you consumed and how much you consumed.
This age is declining towards a dark Age, in what is called the 'western world', which may have its roots in the Classical Age but is a mutation, a corruption of it.
We are now entering the 'information age' that requires no polis to centre its activities around, furthermore what the economic age dismissed, as unproductive, and hindering the free exchange of product and wealth, i.e sex, race identifier - there is no sex and race is production and consumption of goods and services - is now part of the code, because what are genes if not information?
[You must be registered and logged in to see this link.] is a war over how to interpret data, how to understand information - the difference of knowing and understanding is in play.
Dawn of homo notitium.

Data processing and interpreting - conversion of knowledge to understanding - will differentiate the emerging Super-State that will gradually become SuperOrganic.
Species is converted to type of culture, or gene/meme synthesis, with its own particular method of self-maintenance (survival) and self-reproduction (reproduction).
Huntington's analysis deals with the homo-economicus, centred around economic activities, but fails to account for the changing age and the shift towards information processing and exchange.
[You must be registered and logged in to see this link.] implies that identifiers that were detrimental to free-exchange of goods and services - gender, racial, spiritual, ethnic, identifiers - now become integrated as an additional layer of information, determining how information is processes, and translated.
Information control and distribution will become part of the New World Order.
Americanism is in decline and new power configurations are developing.
The economic based conflict, characterizing the Cold War, is morphing into information warfare - asymmetrical warfare, i.e. Nebulous Warfare. The battlefields will be noetic - esoteric, with external manifestations, at first subtle but then gradually accumulating to become apparent. False information will be an aspect of the new conflicts, what is currently called 'fake news', placing media a central branch of the conflict.

Within the context of gene/meme synthesis, or SuperOrganic unities, each individual SuperOrganism acquires the nature of an organism; a species with specific survival and reproductive strategies cultivating the traits necessary to facilitate their niche specialized methods.
Gene/Meme synthesis, i.e. cultures/civilizations - SuperOrganisms - can be predatory, prey, scavenging, and parasitical.

Their cycles corresponding to the life-cycles of organisms.
Their evolution following the same mechanisms - mutations offering an advantage, a disadvantage or remaining until triggered - fertilized by other cultures and inseminating others.
Language is, in this context, the neurological functions of perception and action.
Body/Nervous System/Mind, corresponding to Culture/Semiotics/Civilization.

The "motive underlying liberalism" is in an anti-world, anti-self, as the agency that is exposed to world, that awakens to world as existence, and experiences it as need/suffering.
The motive is underlying Nihilism, i.e. a reaction to human developing conciousness of self, exposing the individual to the discomfort of self in relation and in comparison to other, producing insecurity and a growing sense of vulnerability no simpler animal can ever experience.
Nihilism is the noetic defensive reaction attempting to protect the ego.
It presumes absolutes, for instance, to project into world where he cannot find any; the noumenon/phenomenon dichotomy, or the ideal versus the real conflict.
Nihilism always sides with the idea/ideal, or the subjective, where it builds its theoretical linguistic defences.

As there are predatory and herd species there are equivalent versions of memes.
As there are scavenging and parasitical species, there are equivalent versions of memes.
Genes to Memes.

Preliminary definition.
Virus-meme = an ideology, spiritual or political, that copes with awakening self-consciousness, by fabricating and projecting, as a defence, an ideology/dogma that protects it from its increasing sense of insecurity and vulnerability.
This is why Nihilism works and is so popular. It helps the masses cope with their own emerging sense of awareness about who and what they are, within an indifferent world/nature, in comparison to another.
This is the basic source of the insecurity and vulnerability - the anxiety - that Nihilistic dogmas serve to shelter and protect. It acts as a buffer between ego and world, so that ego is not destroyed.  
A parasite-meme = a symbiont that does not reject the nihilistic-virus, like a normal human would, but embraces it and integrates it into its own survival strategies- which are parasitical.
A parasite is an organism that enters a host and feeds off its energies.
this is exactly what a parasite-meme does.
It enters a host meme - a culture - and exploits it, draining it and corrupting its self-sustaining processes, gradually killing it.
It usually hides, pretending to be a part of the host - by integrating itself into the host's processes - masked as another part of the host.

Memes use semiotics to reproduce and to survive, and so both virus-meme and parasite-meme, i.e. symbiont, use semiotics to infect and infest; to drain and to pretend.

The virus-meme turns the organism upon itself, because self is what it most wants to escape, feeling insecure and vulnerable about how it compares to other. This is what the parasite-meme exploits.
The virus meme-exposes the self to itself, and cultivates self-hatred as a way of dealing with the discomfort of not 'liking what they see'.
So, they attack anything that reminds them of themselves, believing that the different, the other, is always 'better'.

As with genes, memes do not control the organism consciously. The organism can be completely oblivious to its won motives, when it is driven my an inexplicable impulse to act in a particular way - a way that may place it at risk and may contradict its well-being.

I've used the example of mountain goats and how they risk life and limb competing over females, wasting precious energies that may prove detrimental during the coming winter. While females graze, accumulating energies for the winter, the males compete.
This is an example of a genetically driven impulse which does not require the organism's understanding nor conscious awareness as to the underlying motive.
Male mountain goats do not know that fornication leads to impregnation and to a kid being born. they just behave on impulse.
The goat simple feels pleasure, and pleasure is the focus - it is entirely hedonistic.
The same thing can be said for memes. The individual may be clueless as to why or to what end it thinks and acts in the way it does - often against its better judgment and its immediate self-interests.
An individual's awareness is secondary. The meme directs the organisms thinking and acting, while the individual believes it is driven by one motive, there is another underlying it.
The meme and its ideals and principles, create a relationship which directs the individual's behaviour.

Like the male goat is focused on wining the fight, and on the ensuing pleasure it will feel when fornicating the female, the individual is focused on a goal that may not be the meme's true intent, but a means towards another end.
Nihilistic memes can hijack and corrupt the individual's natural impulses - its genetically based motives - and may suppress them or redirect them towards goals that contradict the original intent.

A parasite will deplete and energies and kill the host it feeds on, unaware that this also means its own demise, because this is part of the parasite's genetic impulse of reproduction - its part of an evolved cycle that the particular parasite need not know nor understand - in fact if it did this would inhibit and cause the process to fail.
An individual may believe it is free and independent when its behaviour is part of a collective.

The west's multiculturalism is a farce.
They think of culture as a fashion decision, or a choice between chicken or fish, at a restaurant.
In the US they don't even pretend that much, because their 'meting pot' implies a meting into a cohesive nondescript soup of uniformity.

Dugin proposes an actual multi-cultural multi-polar world, where the Nihilistic bipolar duplicity, is eradicated.
If anything he provides a replacement ideology, to the communist one, that may inspire Europeans to break free form American liberal, and nihilistic hegemony.
Soft-power, backed-up by a hard threat, is American duplicity.
It sells its corrupt, degenerate degenerate ideology, through its pop-culture and Hollywood propaganda, seducing every effete man-child the world over, and then accompanies it with the threat of its 'benevolent' violence, always looking for the next 'enemy' to rally its heterogeneous masses of idiocy.

What Moderns mean by multiculturalism and 'diversity' is based on the idea of culture as being nothing more than a type of cuisine, or a quaint and outdated wardrobe one takes out on holidays to perform traditional rituals nobody knows anything about but performs mechanically and with some embarrassment.
The idea implies that all culture, except the culture-of-no-culture, called liberalism, are but minor, interesting, yet insignificant details about an individual, like what food he likes, or what music he listens to, or where he prefers to go on vacation.
Culture that does not really matter, because it's just another product to be bought and/or sold, or passed down from father to son and mother to daughter, like a gold brooch, or a fancy pen; an outdated heirloom to be valued and worn on special occasions when the dead are remembered fondly, after they are long-gone, or a special recipe to be prepared once a year to indulge in some nostalgia.
But if culture is not alive and living, then it is dead and buried – a corpse without a spirit. This is what they call multiculturalism or their 'melting pot’. A dance of cadavers on Halloween, or a furnace reducing it all to a mass of uniform nothingness.

The anti-Peterson intellectual.



Not surprising that Russia is becoming the source of antitoxins - pharmakon, in the truest sense of the word.
Barbarians invigorate civilized men - Neanderthal blood is flowing in European veins.

Generosity and forgiveness, bordering on naive forgetfulness, increases in times of abundance; superfluity exacerbating it to its extreme proportions of self-denial.
This is most true for tribes that evolved in harsh conditions, such as the original European, or Aryans.
Harshness made all subsequent abundance an excess they had to share, from an impulse born in austerity and codependency.
It is what plagues Europe, to this day.
We see this in both the physical and the intellectual context.
Abundance of self-awareness is accompanied with a desire to share its products; abundance of intellect is characterized by a generosity of spirit.

But in times of austerity, when survival is uncertain, generosity becomes more discriminating, mirroring ni harshness the environment that imposes itself upon the individual.
Cultures produce civilizations, which produce abundance of material and spiritual goods and services. An excess that must be erotically expunged, indiscriminately.
The ease of accumulating energies to self-maintain and to self-replicate, determine the degree of indiscriminate generosity that will develop. Energies are relieved with little care.
When austerity implodes, from the consequences of its own wastefulness, then discrimination gradually returns to impose limits to energy sharing and wastefulness.
In everything from promiscuity, to economics, discrimination rises t the degree that survival is no longer taken for granted, and the resources, of material and men, is no longer wise to be carelessly squandered.

At this stage, we are declining form the apex of superfluity we had attained, as a culture.
The full effects have not yet been experienced....because, as always, consciousness lags behind reality, and the simpler mind lags the further back.
In time, what is currently taken for granted, will decrease in certitude, and suddenly men and women will begin to think, and to perceive differences, where once they only saw uniformity.  
It will become a matter of survival, converting careless abandonment and carefree exploration, to more stringent, careful, consideration.  
For those who will fail to adjust, in time, the end will be certain - weeding out simpletons, and leaving behind the more aware - evolution still applies, no matter how most wish it did not apply to humans.
The most discriminating the most adaptive, innovative the most capable of enduring austerity, will survive, as Europeans survived the Ice age, or the Black Plague.  
Predators and parasites will feast, and then endure a new cycle of famine, requiring them to follow their own survival cycles, changing hosts, as they have for hundreds of years of recorded history.  

Each gene/meme has its own cycles of birth, ascent, descent and death. It follows a organic path.
Europeans, or Indo-European have followed the hard path from superfluity to near-extinction, fending off parasites and vermin, for centuries.
This cycle is ending....but it will take a while to reach its rebirth...at the bottom of its cycle.
Once more they will lose all sense of themselves - will forget their won past, their own identity - rediscovering themselves in others, where their infamy will lie in waiting.

The Renaissance was sparked by Europeans rediscovering, remembering, who they were through text preserved by Muslim Semites, and were infected by this rediscovery; slightly changed by the experience of crossing Lethe.
This will recur.

The signs of illness and infection become clear when the organism is dying. Parasites emerge, in the clear, as it declines towards its death - unable to swat them, or to cleanse itself from their pestering presence.

What applies for the body, applies for the mind.
Genes<>Memes.
What applies for organisms applies for SuperOrganisms, i.e, ethnos, meme, culture/civilization.
we are now witnessing the decline towards its end, of a SuperOrganism that rose to power due to historical and geographical happen-stance.
All that lives must die.
America's demise will be long and troublesome, or sudden and devastating.
Whatever the case may be, we now see the signs, yet the simplest are sill living in ignorance.
The first symptoms are always subtle, and the mind want to dismiss them as unimportant....but they persist and they increase in intensity, until not even an obtuse degenerate can ignore them.
Then its' too late to do anything but wait.

Some rejoice, because a death is followed by a birth.
I am one of them.

Second lecture...


Nation-State is not necessarily an ehtnos.
The meme does not necessarily correspond to a genetic identity.
Multicultural, heterogeneous, nations are not homogeneous unities, but socio-economic unities based on a shared ideology, a shared ideal.

The sense of death approaching makes the organism more dangerous than usual, as it tries to return to its previous state of dominance.
The same applies for Super-Organisms....as genes are mirrored by memes.  
The tradition period is the most turbulent, dependent on how fast the demise of the previous order proceeds.
A fast collapse is the most dangerous; a gradual decline is less so.
Here, the same algorithms that apply to ascent, and in making money should be used - time is reduced by increasing risk.
The same applies to decline. An acceleration would be accompanied with greater turmoil and risks - just as skiing down a mountain has risked dependent on rate of descent.
After the assassination of Kennedy and the impeachment of Nixon, all other Presidents have been controlling American decline.
Obama was a severe symptom, just as the ascent to the position of Ceasar in Rome, by barbarians, was a sign of its decline.  
Trump simply makes it obvious.
Decadence reaches a peak along with power. Then it's only a matter of time, and circumstances, determining how fast the inevitable will occur.

Degradation, superstition, degeneration, decadence increase - reflected in art - representing the speeds of decline.
The invasion of alien populating into the empire is another symptom of decline - representing the same in organic life when death approaches and diseases and parasites have their way with the dying animal.
Nobody can foresee the rate of decline, so nobody can predict how long the process of the US's demise will take.

Like organic life, as death approaches the animal becomes detached from reality, turning inward...this is reflected in the depth of a SuperOrganism.

Which SuperOrganism will step-up and take its place will gradually become clear, as well. We already distinguish one potential candidate that has proven, in the past, to be unable to display the level of aggression required to take up the dominance post.
Others will slowly emerge, gaining confidence as US hegemony recedes leaving voids to be filled.

Thing is, if the US 'elites' begin to sense an end approaching there's no telling what kind of crazy-shit will ensue.
Desperation is a source of insanity - a cornered cat is very dangerous, as is a wounded bear.
Candidates of its replacement must proceed with caution, allowing the dying organism to believe it still has hope, that it can recuperate, until it is too weak to cause any damage.
Fortunately, dominance produces weakness and inflates the ego, clouding judgment.
The one who believes he is the strongest, fastest, smartest, is usually the one who has less reason to believe it, and success in the past only makes it worse.
Dying organism turn inward, where they replay the past - their past glory - over and over - many near death experiences speak about 'life flashing before their eyes', the suffocating, for oxygen, brain firing all neurons, as it slowly dies.
Dying empires begin to live in their past, inside their own memories, continuously repeating it....and this is also reflected in [You must be registered and logged in to see this link.].

In the Dark Age, already under-way, a regression will ensue - gradually returning back, along the memetic same paths that resulted in the apex and the infection, infestation, that began the decline.
The path upwards will be the path downward, towards the source of the infection that started the process.

In America, and all the western nations that were under its hegemony suffering the same disease, this will be characterized by a re-turn to what preceded post-modernity or the secular and more obscure, occult, forms of the meme-virus - returning back through Abrahamism, from cultural-Marxism, the secular form of the same dis-ease.
This mirrors the ascent and descent of an organism, where in its declining years the organism returns back to an infantile-state, e.g. old males, in particular, reverting back to a child-like condition.
This is already occurring in one form or another.
In Russia it has already proceeded to a return to Orthodoxy, replacing Marxism as the nihilistic controlling meme for the masses.

In times of external stress the organisms seeks refuge internally, if this at all possible.
It's a desperate final 'solution' to a dilemma it cannot unravel using its reason.

This is a well-documented psychological defensive mechanism witnessed in prey being eaten-alive by predators or in individuals that suffer a life-threatening traumatic event.  
The brain attempts to protect the organism by detaching itself from the source of pain and suffering, whether this comes from body, from its past stored in memory, or from the world.
As the SuperOrganism declines and begins to suffer increasingly traumatic events - events that were once bearable become increasingly unbearable as the organism is depleted due to age or disease - it becomes introspective, esoteric, seeking an escape inward, using its own memories or chemical methods of self-numbing, or self-detachment - in this case mental fragmentation, a self-induced schizophrenia, is to be expected. Compartmentalization, or newspeak it has also been called, describing the same phenomenon.

Once Marx referred to Christianity as the 'opiate of the people' wanting to sell his own brand of narcotics.
In Modern times the opiates have become more sophisticated, entertainment, sold by Hollywood dream-dispensaries, more powerful chemical drugs that make opium seem like an aspirin, music, art, in general, are all participating in mass-inebriation.
What they are taking advantage of is man's inability to cope with self-awareness, made all the more worse after generations of unregulated reproduction, and sheltering, increasing the odds of survivability, and preventing natural culling mechanisms to weed-out unfit mutations. The results are obvious: masses of individuals unable to cope with the world - making the world, in contrast, 'too much' for them to handle - or unable to accept the regimented sheltering - making the world 'not enough' to gratify them.

When a hegemony declines it begins allowing more stress to seep through its protective artificial layering - its all-encompassing, warping, memetic membrane, creating an internal alternate-reality. This, gradually exposes individuals, inexperienced with anything other than the artificial, esoteric alternate-reality, to a natural-order they cannot handle.
It would be like an organism exposing its organs to the world, because its skin is gradually becoming thinner or fragmented, unable to hold everything together internally. In this metaphorical scenario each organ cell is akin to an individual within the Super-Organism or the memetic superstructure.  
The trauma increases forcing all that were once protected to seek refuge in drugs, in superstition, on inward, diving into themselves, hoping they can escape the external world inside themselves.
In practical terms this would manifest as increasing social unrest, disgruntlement sociopathy, reaching the levels of insanity.

Nutritional deprivation can produce physical health issues, but nutritional over-indulge can also produce its own kind of physical ailments. What holds true for body in regards to energy intake, holds true for mind and data intake. Data depravity, i.e. ignorance reduces the mind’s ability to deal with the world, but data superfluity makes the mind obese and unable to navigate through it.
Most of the data influx, available on-line is worthless, i.e. poor in nutritional value, lacking the intellectual ‘vitamins’ the mind requires to remain healthy, furthermore the ease and accessibility of information makes the mind unable to discern quality within the quantity; a kind of mental atherosclerosis develops, data ‘plaque’ accumulating in the mind, preventing its oxygenation.

Baudrillard, Jean wrote:

We live in a world where there is more and more information, and less and less meaning.

In matters of body & mind (gene & meme) the old adage ‘less is more’, offers a way to remain physically and psychologically fit – balanced in the sense of Hellenic asceticism.
Information inundation acts as a blunting instrument to human judgements – instead of censoring information, the system floods its networks, creating confusion, a vertigo of spirit, unable to orient itself. Judgement is eroded to the point where the data is no longer dangerous to the ‘institutions’ that included it among superfluous, worthless information.
Adding to Baudrillard’s quote…’we live in a world of more and more declared acquaintances, and less friends’; ‘we live in a world of more and more knowledge and less and less understanding’; ‘we live in a world of more and more sexual intercourse and less and less passion’; ‘we live in a world of more and more material wealth and less and less spiritual wealth’; ‘we live in a world of more and more perspectives and less and less clarity’. In short ‘we live in a world of quantities and not qualities’.

Indulgence in resources, over-abundance of humans, is also accompanied with access to superfluous data. Modern minds gluttonously consume information, unable to adequately digest most of it because it lacks substance, i.e., nutritional value – like many ‘foods’ that appear impressive and taste wonderful, but are entirely void of any nutrients. Abundance overwhelms the senses, making the mind unable to discern the ‘good’ from the ‘bad’, the reliable from the unreliable, and the useful from the useless. All positions have a supporting ‘expert’, offer impressive sounding statistics, references, presented through credentialed and popular icons & idols. With no family foundations, no cultural traditions to filter it all through, the mind is overwhelmed and drowns in ‘knowledge’, without ever understanding any of it; without ever connecting the knowledge with the world, the idea with the real. Gradually succumbing to need it settles on the primal method of emotion to determine what is ‘right’ and what is ‘wrong’ and its primitive, criteria make it easy prey to charlatans peddling feel-good superstitions and ego-stroking occultism.

Modern minds are inundated with information: numerical graphs, market values, per capita statistics, long-term projections, casualty counts, body-fat percentages, time tables, agendas, digital-clocks… and a perpetual state of stress is injected in minds that are unused to the overload of input and so cannot distinguish between the relevant and the irrelevant. Cut away from circadian rhythms, metabolic rates, natural cycles, seasonal continuity, night/day sequences, the average dolt falls prey to this new state of affairs, buys into it, and burns itself out trying to adhere to its new artificiality. Meanwhile the wise man sits calmly, watching the rush, following his own tempo, knowing his own values… hearing beats lost to the masses in the din of Modernity, living in a different flow.
The wise man sits quietly, and only speaks when he has something to say; only acts when he is moved; only cares when he has a reason to.

It is precisely in these times of documentation influx, when the mind is reeling with cascading data streams, and every position can find an accredited expert in its support, armed with graphs, credentials, and unquestionable yet questionable facts, when the mind of the average man finds itself dumbfounded by it all.
Unable to connect with what the experts tell it, seeped as it all is in technical jargon, sometimes masking tomfoolery in pretty words and important sounding verbosity, the average man settles for the emotional factor to decide for him. If he cannot decide what-is-what and who to trust then he might as well decide to allow his feminine intuition and emotionalism to have the last word. Curiously it is also in these times when the confusion between understanding and knowing attains its greatest disparity, when most choose to define intelligence as the accumulation of knowledge, equating the mental capacities of a man and his flexible judgements to that of a computing device disseminating trivial information at the speed of light.
Speed, after all, is this Modern world’s highest virtue. It is, in this sorry state of affairs, that charlatans and many pretentious gits find their most fertile ground to practice their manipulative talents. All one needs to do now is provide a steady flow of quotations or reference points deferring analysis to another, or for a later time that never comes, shrouding the conversation in heaps of feathery names and electric numerical peaks and valleys.
The mind does not understand what it is being told or what it is saying, repeating it as a parrot would, for it is simply replacing analysis with statistics, adopting ‘conclusions’ as a matter of fact.
All this once affected me, as it did and does all others, but I soon learned to trust my own senses and put my own evaluations ahead of any else’s. I did so reluctantly, at first, building up my confidence by testing my own judgements, until my opinion found the courage to stand on its own, before it sought the support of those it found agreement with. But how many can say the same? Most would rather not think than think without standing behind another more eligible, and impressive mind. With all this knowledge, some of it so abstract that it can find no direct relation to our sensual experiences, the soul is filled with anxiety and a reluctance to think about anything at all which does not come to it pre-packaged and explained and accompanied with defensive arguments, just in case it is challenged.

Why control information when you’ve already restricted critical thinking and you’ve dealt with the possible consequences by increasing analytical dependence on institutional sources?

Access to data, and information inundation, has made everyday discourse a competition over knowledge, displays of memorization, and deference to the most impressive idol/icon. An easy association of understanding with knowing develops into an obsession/addiction with education as the all-equalizing factor, where techniques/technologies, and restriction of particular ‘undesirable ‘behaviours, creates the illusion of parity.
In philosophy the motive is not to perceive, and understand the world but to access knowledge and memorize it, competing over who knows more about things rather than who understand things the best; consequently, when knowledge is accessible to all the tactic of using obscure sources to imply a superiority, prevails as the only way to establish dominance.

The slandering and degradation of all natural identifiers has produced spirits lost within a sea of superfluity.
With no family, no traditions, no heritage, to draw sustenance from, they seek an alternative in matter, and materialism, or in superstitious occultism 'spirituality' selling them 'bloated' nonsense full of extraordinary promises, exploiting their impoverished judgements and desperation to devour anything of 'substance'.

Individuals with no solid grounding are easy prey to all sorts of charlatanisms.
They are dying of starvation in a sea of nutrition lacking data - information with no substance.
Their lack of experience unable to distinguish quality in the sheer magnitude of quantity. Inevitably they are drawn to what appears most impressive, what 'stands out', from the other rubbish - fools gold shines bright in the eyes of the impoverished.

Baudrillard, Jean wrote:

America is the original version of modernity.
We are the dubbed or subtitled version.
America ducks the question of origins; it cultivates no origin or mythical authenticity; it has no past and no founding truth.
Having known no primitive accumulation of time, it lives in a perpetual present.

Modern ideal is an inverted plant-like consciousness - an individual with no past, but with only a presence, i.e. image built on immediate trends and memetic idols/icons, projected into a forever immanent 'future', replacing 'paradise, in some 'beyond space/time' with a Utopian future.
Its prerequisite delusion is that humans, and only humans, are born as 'clean slates' - tabula rasa - written upon by others - culture, i.e. all that is relevant to man is a social construct.
Logos is the 'writing' upon man's 'soul' - programming.

The conception of Modern secular Nihilism, reflecting Abrahamic Nihilism, but changing the seismological references, is as a 'spirit' born into existence out of 'nothing', i.e. with no past/nature.
An individual entirely and absolutely determined by the present - i.e. nurture.
An individual with only a 'future' that is always 'better' than the present, and more 'real' than the 'past'.
A reduction from four dimensional consciousness to three-dimensional consciousness - dumbing-down.

A parasite-meme, having embraced the virus (virus-meme) of Nihilism as a method of making its parasitism more effective/efficient - evolving into a symbiont - overturns low culture as a replacement of high culture, presenting the decline of the host as an ascent, and its degradation under the effects of the viral-infection, as a new definition of 'health'.
Death was resold, to the desperate, as a 'rebirth' in an after-life.

'Up', becomes 'down'; 'good' becomes 'bad'; 'weakness' becomes 'strength'; 'death' becomes 'life'; and 'disease' becomes 'health'.

It occupies the institutions that promote degradation and decadence, selling its illness as New Age vitality - a return to youthfulness.
This is how it attempt to distract the host from realizing what is happening to it...until things have become too advanced to be reversed - crossing the Rubicon, is crossing the river Styx.

Necessary Sacrifice
History and nature teach us that for something truly new and vigorous to be born, something old and frail has to die.

Already the US is suffering the effects of the parasite's previous activities. Increasingly European males are excluded from positions of authority and from higher-education, most opting out due to feminism and what a 'bad deal' all sexual relationships have become for males, particular of European origin.
The US is trying to condensate for this by importing 'minds', and in fact the Left believes this is a solution, given their views on race and on how nurturing usurps nature.
Women benefit because of their natural disposition to be followers of authority - more bakers than creative cooks - so the present system provides them with a 'by-the-book' advantage, demanding only loyalty and strict adherence to precedence, with little to no personal contribution.
This will prolong systemic functionality, but as economies rise, overseas, increasingly males will prefer to study and contribute their creativity elsewhere.
The effect will be subtle, and persistent, perceived as a slow economic decline and a decrease in technological innovation.

The first signs are already becoming apparent in art, i.e. fArt, particularly the music and movie industries - traditionally the US's projected global 'soft-power' selling its globalization nihilistic brand of 'culture-of-no-culture' to other nations as a way of eroding their social and cultural cohesion.
As European males drop-out of public affairs, and Asians are pushed aside to enforce quotas, the entire system will decline in its ability to maintain itself and to increase its advantage over other nations.  

The Parasite-meme is just becoming aware of this trend, and is shifting from supporting Left-wing idealism to supporting Right-wing conservative ideologies, trying to arrest the decline they contributed to and took advantage of.
If we see it 'jumping ship' at some point in the not too distant future, this'll be a sign that it has found a new host to parasitize, abandoning the US to a fate it exacerbated with its memetic parasitism.
This particular parasite-meme has a distinct feminine essence. As soon as it senses the masculine, host deteriorating is seeks a new one to surrender and give itself to.
It always invests in potential 'winners' or the 'favourite', placing no other ideal, than its survival, as its guiding principle.

Art is to a culture - meme - what a canary was to miners in the past centuries.
An early detection 'canary' in the proverbial mineshaft.
The gradual deterioration of America's 'entertainment industry' is subtle but detectable by more sensitive minds.

Other symptoms include the quality of 'leadership' ascending to the post of 'symbolic power' exposing the nation's elites losing some control, or experiencing some intellectual decline after generations of dominance; the decline and gradual replacement of the original peoples that created the nation and its dominance is a further symptom.

All Super-organisms follow a predictable cycle mirroring organic cycles of birth, youth, middle-age, old-age and death. Each has its symptoms, viz., Genes<>Memes. Interpreting SuperOrganic symptomatology to be in agreement with the more intuitive Organic symptoms requires a conversion of organic contexts – genetics – into super-organic contexts – memetics. This is inspired by Yockey's 'Vitalism' who was inspired by Spengler.
Culture is the youthful stage of ascent, and civilization is its end-phase of descent, after reaching an apex. When a SuperOrganism, a civilization, enters its end-phase this is accompanied with particular signs.
SuperOrganisms, like organisms, carries the roots of its later demise in its body, i.e. it is said that all life has 'cancer' but only some die when this cancer begins to take over and/or corrupt the organism's self-affirming processes. The same holds for a SuperOrganism, and/or a Super-state, as those currently developing as continuations of nation-states, e.g., America, India, Russia, China....Brazil?...Europe?
We are currently in the phase of US, or Americanism, American hegemony, i.e., American civilization. A civilization built on Anglo-Saxon Puritan values, invigorated by Germanic, Italian, Irish, European bloodlines and cultures.
It later became infested by a parasite-meme, that shall remain unnamed... but all who understand will understand. Infestation is a product of a beginning of a coming end. Like organisms become old and in their old age become more vulnerable to infections, diseases of all kinds, and parasites – the cancer that was held in stasis begins to grow and to take-over, in some cases.
The U.S. is gradually descending towards its end-phase, and it is bringing all those who are under its dominion down with it – it's decline is accompanied with a general western crisis....starting with that of identity, since all of this occurs on a memetic context. A culture is a sum of memes, i.e. ideas, ideals, rites, rituals traditions, semiotics, ethical standards imposing specific modes of thinking, and acting, i.e. behaving,
A sign of SuperOrganic decay is when alien genes begin dominating and/or replacing, usurping those that founded the SuperOrganism – akin to a cell in the organic body being corrupted and contradicting the organic processes that keep the organism alive and which are founded on its DNA, as inherited memories informing its development and its behaviour. In Rome the slow dominance of Abrahamic Christianity – starting from the slave catacombs - was a sign of its coming demise – its slaves brought into it a pathogen that contradicted Roman culture, which was distinctly Hellenic, or more precisely Indo-European, pagan, as we call it, in origin. Currently, in the US, a similar thing is occurring with the gradual dominance of ex-slaves, and the gradual replacement of the original genetic lines by imported ones, contradicting the original memes that founded the Republic. At first some adherence to the empire's traditions, is to be expected, but a erosion will accumulate until the signs become too obvious to be dismissed or ignored by even the most obtuse individual 'cell' in the SuperOrganism's body.
Something similar is occurring in modern-Greece with the election of SYRIZA and the erosion of modern-Greek culture, displayed in its fArt, and crisis of identity.
fArt indicates an internal decay, producing gasses that are expelled, smelling of rot – art includes language, and so we can also see in the erosion and corruption of language, an additional indicator of cultural decline.
The SuperOrganism cannot replace its depleting resources, in material and man power, and begin to import resources to compensate. What was contrary to its identity begins to be replaced, as the alien grows like a cancer.
Rome split in two, never to find its past glory – each of the fragments, i.e. Holy Roman, and Eastern Roman (Byzantium) claimed to be the rightful heirs of the original. As the western fragment declined the eastern part experienced a resurgence, due to its frontier pressures, forcing it to muster what was left to reassert itself. But the decline continues, as Christianity replaced its Indo-European spirit. Its conquest by the Turks was inevitable. It took over a thousand years, but the signs are easily recognized through the historical records.
We, now, have an opportunity to witness the same processes in real-time, in relation to the current world-dominating SuperOrganism, i.e. the U.S.
We see comparable symptoms. Slave revolts, ex-slaves gradually usurping the cultural domain, its esoteric essence, infestation, infection of alien component, masking as 'native', a slow infiltration of different genetics, replacing the original, a deterioration of art into fArt, including the use and application of language, as an everyday tool of communicating shared ideas/ideals, a slow but steady rise of superstition, in its occult form, a turning against rationality, and science, an anti-intellectualism and anti-rationalism hinting at the coming Dark Age when charlatanism, debauchery, degeneracy, decadence and decay become the rule and not the exception....
This in the, so called 'west', i.e. Americanism. In the east things are different. Russia is slowly emerging out of its own Dark Age, culmination in its own collapse of its own version of civilization, i.e. the Soviet Union, India is gradually rising, along with China, from its centuries-long lethargy, sensing, perhaps, the end of what kept it humble - like the gradual death of an alpha, in a wolf-pack, is accompanied by a slow ascent of the 'betas' who compete over who will replace the 'alpha'. The question marks are Brazil and the EU, for different reasons.
Brazil, due to its race-mixing that diluted the European creative elements, unable to become innovative, though it has access to resources. Miscegenation preventing it from consolidating and asserting itself on the world-stage.
EU, due to the multiplicity of ancient cultures, and its generation-long dominance by Americanism, imposing up it Judeo-Christian ethics, and a sense of shame about its own identity, exacerbated by innate cultural divisions that cannot find a common ground in their shared Indo-European heritage. Nationalism – dominance of the nation-state - is inhibiting the development of a SuperOrganic identity – corrupted by Russian and American manipulations. The absence of a single language is a major factor. It's infestation of a parasite-meme, via the dominance of Americanism, is also a major factor. Its convergence will be a time-consuming and, I dare say, a bloody affair – no unity has ever developed without being baptised in blood. Shared risks, and losses, are what unite a people.

Another unknown factor is whether or not Islam will consolidate and become a player. Currently the US is using Saudi Arabia, as it used Britain and wanted to use Turkey, i.e. as an internal disruptive element, preventing consolidation.
Iran is backed by Russian, and its Dugin-based strategy to create a multi-polar world, where Russia, they hope, will dominate with its abundant resources and its more cohesive unity. Turkey is also a player, seeking to re-establish itself as a new-Ottoman Empire, used by Russia to break apart NATO. The fact that it is succeeding, to some degree, indicates the down-ward trend of American hegemony. Turkey is on the fence. It sees an opportunity to abandon a slowly sinking Americanism-ship, establishing itself as the core identifying nation-state of Islamism, denying the position to Iran, and thwarting the disruptive plans of the U.S. through Saudi Arabia. Turkey's choice will be determined by Russia and how much confidence it gives Turkey that U.S. hegemony is currently weak enough to be challenged. Such stressors on the periphery of American dominance, will also offer some leeway to other rising SuperOrganic challengers, and allow the E.U. to overcome its many internal division.

Like all ambitious beta-males, Turkey will continue testing America’s control, gradually drifting further and further towards Russia and her Dugin-inspired ideology of a multi-polar, religious-based, i.e. Abrahamic, world-order.
Tukey is crucial because it lies on the frontier of American hegemony – exactly where you would expect fragmentation to begin.
Erdogan’s challenge is already shaking American hegemony, by unbalancing NATO, as the military-arm of Americanism. He senses a weakness in Trump’s narcissism and overall behaviour; an opportunity to exploit.
Trump will be replaced by the string of sub-standard American Presidents – made most obvious with the election of George W., and the degeneracy of his predecessor Clinton, is exposing something fundamentally wrong with American elites – because President’s are mere figureheads. Undoubtedly Trump will eventually be replaced by a similar psychotic, or degenerate figurehead.
Coupled with the openly degenerate stance of the American ‘left, represented by Democrats – or what passes for ‘left’ in that distinctly binary political system – proposing immigration politics and the normalization of LGBT psychological degeneracy, as well as the overall degradation of American ‘popular-culture,’ or the ‘culture-of-no-culture’, points to an empire’s decline. A process that will be unpredictable, and it may take decades and/or generations, with periodic U.S. resurgences to be expected. As domination declines world-turmoil will increase as each competing challenger will jostle for an advantageous positions hoping to replace the dying ‘hegemon’.

Bloom, Allan wrote:

Openness results in American conformism-out there in the rest of the world is a drab diversity that teaches only that values are relative, whereas here we can create all the lifestyles we want.
Our openness means we do not need others. Thus what is advertised as a great opening is a great closing.

Evola, Julius wrote:

America ... has created a 'civilization' that represents an exact contradiction of the ancient European tradition. It has introduced the religion of praxis and productivity; it has put the quest for profit, great industrial production, and mechanical, visible, and quantitative achievements over any other interest. It has generated a soulless greatness of a purely technological and collective nature, lacking any background of transcendence, inner light, and true spirituality.
America has [built a society where] man becomes a mere instrument of production and material productivity within a conformist social conglomerate.

America, like other British colonies, was a construct gathering all the rejected or rejecting components in the British Empire.
All those who sought to escape precedent, their own past, European hierarchies, all fled towards the US, Canada, Australia, New Zealand...etc.
it's Protestant, Puritan, spirit was inevitable to be a shared ideal.
Protestantism was also a rebellion, a rejection, of Catholicism, and the Holy Roman, and Eastern Orthodox hegemony, representing a dead Roman Empire.

They gathered all the desperate, seeking, lost, hopeless, souls, like Jesus did during his passage through life in the Levant. Along with them came criminals, gamblers, spirits seeking their fate in the wilderness of what frontiers were left upon the earth.
Judaism found its Christian kindred spirit in Protestantism, as it is a psychology built on rejection, and parasitism - victim psychology asserting itself as inversion of shame into pride.
Paradise in the beyond became a viable Utopia that remained immanent, always on its way, in some future realm, i.e. progressiveness is rooted here, as is liberalism - liberty from past/nature....always in the present, as presence, free from precedent; all nurture and no inherited nature.
Nature became synonymous with socio-economic inheritance, i.e. class.
To escape past includes both genetic and memetic precedent - an idealogical erasing of memory - clean slate (tabula rasa) offering a rewriting of past and of the future, now free from past limitations.
This is what they called the 'American Dream', because only a somnambulist can escape reality in his dreams. Americanism is a kind of cultural dream-world drawing all dreamers to its promise.
Mistaking dreams for reality, is confusing the idea/ideal for the real.

Baudrillard, Jean wrote:

This is the only scale by which we can measure our present situation. By dint of meaning, information, and transparence our societies have passed beyond the limit point, that of permanent ecstasy: the ecstasy of the social (the masses), the body (obesity), sex (obscenity), violence (terror), and information (simulation).
If, in fact, the era of transgression has ended, it is that things themselves have transgressed their own limits.
If one can no longer reconcile things with their essence, it is because they have mocked and surpassed their own definition. They have become more social than the social (the masses), fatter than fat (obesity), more violent than the violent (terror), more sexual than sex (porn), more real than the real (simulation), more beautiful than the beautiful (fashion)
