>>19765 >his own philosophy of the 4 words "eliminate all unnecessary suffering", which is derived, apparently, from himself, his life, and Nietzsche, etc.. I wonder how he got that from Nietzsche, because I remember reading in 'Beyond Good and Evil' Nietzsche saying that far from eliminating suffering, people need to suffer far more. I know (since I looked this up before I wrote the post) that he says that "eliminate all unnecessary suffering" doesn't mean "eliminate all suffering" but I could easily see this being twisted into something cucked. Either way, I've read a bit of his stuff from others having linked it here. I don't forget that he is a non-White so I stay alert, but he seems decent.

>>19758 What's bizarre is that he defends the official 9/11 narrative along with being seemingly blind to modern subversion in general (such as holding up Duginists like Spencer as genuine nationalists) while tearing apart the Holohoax and other anti-Germany propaganda. I could never figure that out, he seems too smart for it. He is quite excellent on anti-Christianity however, and that's all I recommend him to others for.

>>19768 I guess not everyone can be perfectly redpilled on every topic unfortunately. I can imagine his view would be different if he was actually White. I mean, how is he supposed to know what is the best interest of our people? It seems like he has some decent insights in some areas though (as you said Christianity, etc)

>>19768 I saw a blog post explaining it a while back, it was kind of roundabout, I don't think he got it only from Nietzsche, a lot of it seems to come from his stance on Psychology and Psychiatry as well being a proponent of the Trauma model of mental illness and that model does make sense, although there are certainly some things that are biological in that realm the vast majority are not. >>19768 On the contrary, he criticizes spencer quite often maybe not for his flawed nationalism or shilling for eurasianism and Duginism/Nazbol, but for the same thing he calls all White Nationalists idiots for, not being Nordicist, not being moral enough in a Nietzchean way thus immoral in a christkike sense, and more, obviously but I need not cover it all here. As for his believing the narrative around 9/11, that really doesnt matter at all, false flag or not, planned or not it is really immaterial to us or our goals and we should not waste time or effort trying to discover what really did happen, it truly doesn't help us. >>19771 An outside perspective is sometimes the best perspective, he seeks largely to get most so called White nationalists across the "Psyschological Rubicon "as he calls it, to where we stand now.

>>19837 How asshurt are you gonna be that you need to constantly post here?

>>19699 >On Twitter, he also seemed to imply that Christianity is the 'normal' choice of religion for westerners In other words he stopped being a fascist and became a reactionary. Christianity is what brought westerns in this mess of today in the first place. You can't make westerns Chads again with christcuckery especially when their philosophies, scriptures and generally entire is history is about making Whites "civilized" and turning them into submissive weaklings. Europeans would be better off pretending to be Vikings than shilling a dead Jew's church.

>>19840 Believing that Christianity is still a viable solution is such an unfortunate bluepill to fall into, especially when someone is otherwise already redpilled. I feel like the only reason that people fall into ideas like this in the first place is due to some sort of nostalgia about the world as it was some fifty to one hundred years ago. People were much more Christian and less pozzed compared to today, but it's a shortsighted and bluepilled view for the reason that you have already said - Christianity and Abrahamic thought is the problem. Christianity has resolutely failed to solve the problems we face, and indeed it gets weaker and meeker with every passing year. Less people go to church, the religion itself becomes more and more non-White in terms of followers, etc. I've argued before that Christianity has literally been dying for centuries at a very slow rate.

>>19842 >I feel like the only reason that people fall into ideas like this in the first place is due to some sort of nostalgia about the world as it was some fifty to one hundred years ago. That and likely because they believe or know that there are a-lot of religious and nationalistic Whites remain Christians. I wouldn't have as much as a problem with this perspective if they Christians would just learn to stop being a bunch of cowards and act like Islamists, while fighting for their race as well. They should realize that church shillings/worship comes later and killing those who are invading and destroying Europe comes first. > the religion itself becomes more and more non-White in terms of followers, etc. And I've seen trad-caths embrace and endorse this, I saw some on (((Twitter))) even say that they would rather Europe burn than have their religion die out. >I've argued before that Christianity has literally been dying for centuries at a very slow rate. I think this is happening with all Abrahamic religions, Islam is even said to be dying slowly and the newer converts are only rising in Africa similarly to Christianity, but dying in places like the Middle East and East Asia. The rise of secularism in even the most traditionalists nations is becoming the norm.

This book is a good read for insight into the mind of the jew, and the details of their plans

>>19840 He also seems to be a fan of Evola, as he quotes him on his 'about' page on his website. But Evola said that Christianity is essentially garbage and that Catholicism was only redeemable because it adopted certain Roman/Pagan ideas and symbols. This is something I have heard from a lot people online. But then, if the only valuable aspect of western Christianity is its pre-Christian roots, why even try to preserve Christianity in the first place? >>19842 They also don't understand that opposing things like feminism and sodomy is not something unique to Abrahamic religions and that this was a feature of pretty much all societies in pre-modern times. Because their understanding of Paganism is based mostly on the Bible, they may think that Europe was like Sodom and Gomorrah pre-Christianity, which is of course nonsense. Rome did become degenerate in its final stage but that's partly because of the influx of Semitic peoples who brought along religions that would have disgusted the founders of Rome. Elagabalus is a perfect example of that. And it was this influx of foreign people and sexual degeneracy that allowed for the adoption of the Semitic life-rejecting cult. There is strong similarities to that and the current situation in Europe, you have some people saying that Islam is based and that it needs to be adopted to fix the west, as if degeneracy and Islam are the only two options. >>19844 >Islam is even said to be dying slowly and the newer converts are only rising in Africa similarly to Christianity, but dying in places like the Middle East and East Asia True, atheism is rising among the youths in many Islamic countries, because of the lowering quality of life and the financial inability for many to marry, causing sexual morality to decrease. Islam is mostly followed for opportunistic reasons like the easy access to marriage for men who would have no way to procreate in a harsh modern dating environment.

>>19842 I seriously don't get it. The fact that Christianity came from the same sands as jews and arabs, the fact that their original bible was in the same hebrew language, should be a red flag. And yet, many christians want to shill that it's the only White religion (and I'm betting for the majority, it's in fear of being to hell 'cuz they refuse to go against daddy jew), and that all of our ancestors were christian despite the fact that they went all the way to Europe to cut down the tree Pagans worshipped or whatever and completely replaced them. I really, truly, don't get it.

>>19844 >I wouldn't have as much as a problem with this perspective if they Christians would just learn to stop being a bunch of cowards and act like Islamists, while fighting for their race as well. We can dream, but it will never happen as I'm sure you are aware. I can at least respect jihadis. They talk the talk and walk the walk, and do not cuck or compromise in fighting for their ideals. I don't like Islam of course, it's yet another universalist, jew-based religion, but I gotta call it how I see it. > I saw some on (((Twitter))) even say that they would rather Europe burn than have their religion die out. Yes, this is where they show their true colors to the highest extent. I have seen many times Christians say that, when faced with the choice between an 100% non-White Christian Europe and a 100% non-Christian White Pagan Europe that they would choose the Christian one. They are the original civic nationalists. Same results oftentimes when you ask them who they would rather have their daughters marry. >>19846 > Evola said that Christianity is essentially garbage and that Catholicism was only redeemable because it adopted certain Roman/Pagan ideas and symbols. This is something I have heard from a lot people online. But then, if the only valuable aspect of western Christianity is its pre-Christian roots, why even try to preserve Christianity in the first place? I'd assume that Evola was writing this before Vatican II also, when the church completely cucked out and embraced modernism, philosemitism and the like. But then again, as far back as the 1830s the Holy See was getting big loans from the Rothschild family. They've been compromised for a very, very long time, needless to say, and you are right that people need to learn to separate what is truly European, and what is merely a Semitic mold clinging to the vaguely European core. >They also don't understand that opposing things like feminism and sodomy is not something unique to Abrahamic religions and that this was a feature of pretty much all societies in pre-modern times. Because their understanding of Paganism is based mostly on the Bible, they may think that Europe was like Sodom and Gomorrah pre-Christianity, which is of course nonsense. It is very unfortunate that paganism has become so associated in the minds of the masses with Satanism, Aleister Crowley and things such as Wicca, which is an extremely degenerate, untraditional 'religion'. This is where all of the shit about feminism and sodomy comes from, no doubt. Both Christians and Jews alike are to blame here for spreading and perpetuating these lies, along with the distortions of leftists of authentic traditions. Funnily enough, I learned a while back that 'witchcraft' was also something punishable by death in pagan Europe - which is quite different from the naive idea that witches were 'pagan remnants' or something.

>>19850 >The fact that Christianity came from the same sands as jews and arabs, the fact that their original bible was in the same hebrew language, should be a red flag. This one takes some advanced mental gymnastics. First they have to come with the mindset that it is true, thus it doesn't matter where it comes from. Next, they have to convince themselves that Judaism didn't exist until after Christianity became a thing, and that the basis of the problem is not Semites, but Semites who are religiously Jewish. And these religiously Jewish Semites hate Jesus for whatever reason, and all would be fine and dandy if they just accepted the good Semite Jesus. Of course this is all just nonsense and very far from a racial mindset. >and that all of our ancestors were christian despite the fact that they went all the way to Europe to cut down the tree Pagans worshipped or whatever and completely replaced them. It's especially funny once you learn how astroturfed Christianity actually was. It was completely top-down. Sure, it might have spread organically among slaves, women and Jews for a while in Rome, but after Rome itself got compromised under Constantine, the gradual Christianization of Europe in the following centuries was something that was done through converting the rulers, who then in turn destroyed all of the statues and forced their people to get baptized. A good example of this is Kievan Rus under Vladimir. Basically, the king wanted them to be Christian, so they became Christian. But I guess we should just blindly follow what was the result of coercion! Doos vult, amiright?

>>19857 >They've been compromised for a very, very long time From the start, really. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Saeculum_obscurum https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Bad_Popes Most of the first popes were absolutely degenerates. Very few members of the early Catholic leadership were actually celibate, they were either faggots who raped the young boys in their service or they would secretly (or not so secretly in some cases) visit prostitutes. The former was sadly a practice that continued up until modern times. I have nothing against the practice of voluntarily celibacy in itself but I am convinced that most of the people who became celibate to serve the church were closeted homosexuals. >>19858 >This one takes some advanced mental gymnastics You forgot to mention the people who claim that Jesus was a White man who somehow ended up in the Levant. What do you guys think of the possibility of Jesus never even having existed or having been multiple people? The only 'proof' of Jesus' existence is a Roman document that dates from about 30 years after his official death. There is no document mentioning him from the time when he supposedly lived or died, you'd think that the creation of a new religion causing civil unrest in one of the already rebellious provinces would at least be worthy of a mention by some Roman at the time.

>>19859 *absolute

>>19859 What do you guys think of the possibility of Jesus never even having existed or having been multiple people? I think he existed. This doesn't lend as much to the Christians as you'd think though. One thing I'd say that is inaccurate that you're saying here is that Jesus was starting a new religion - I think that isn't what he was intending at all. Even Paul thought of himself as a Jew. I don't even think he used the word "Christian". This becomes clearer when you see that there was a debate with the non-Jesus-following Jews about what aspects of Jewish law apply to gentiles and the like, if any. The differences from Judaism only built up over time as people elaborated the theology / christology and more and more gentiles were entering the religion. Even when Suetonius mentions Christians in passing, he writes this: >Since the Jews constantly made disturbances at the instigation of Chrestus, he expelled them from Rome. This seems like there was not much of a difference in the Roman mind between Christians and Jews. Even Paul's letters come from some two decades after Jesus' death. Now unless we are to say that literally everything was faked, it's clear that Paul was writing letters to somebody about Jesus, whom the recipient(s) already knew about. It seems as if in some twenty years after Jesus' death some acceptance of Jesus as the Jewish messiah had spread into Asia Minor, among Jews mainly of course. Looking at it from the outside as a pagan, what difference would it make really - these Jews accept this dead Jew as the messiah, this other group of Jews doesn't, big whoop! And then to further blur the lines, as I have written before there were tons of different types of Jews in this time, some in favor of the Jewish establishment (Pharisees, Sadducees) and some opposed to these groups (Essenes, people like John the Baptist, Jesus, etc). The Sadducees' canon only included the Pentateuch, and they believed that there was no afterlife at all. Pharisees disagreed with this and accepted many more books and of course the Oral Torah, which eventually evolved into the Talmud. The point of this is that there was great diversity among Jews, and Romans didn't seem to give a shit about these differences between Jews in the slightest. I also don't think it caused that much civil unrest. To the extent that we can believe the New Testament, Jesus sperged out and whipped some other kikes outside the temple, and later had some squabbles with the temple Jews, and he gave himself up without a fight later to the Romans. The Jewish temple was huge and problem had thousands of people milling around. Christians act like he cleared out the entire temple: >This area was primarily a bazaar, with vendors selling souvenirs, sacrificial animals, food, as well as currency changers, exchanging Roman for Tyrian money because the Jews were not allowed to coin their own money and they viewed Roman currency as an abomination to the Lord,[29][dubious – discuss] as also mentioned in the New Testament account of Jesus and the Money Changers when Jerusalem was packed with Jews who had come for Passover, perhaps numbering 300,000 to 400,000 pilgrims Just look at the pic, at minimum that square is the size of a football field

>>19863 You have to keep in mind two things: >jews were and are part of a group of culturally very similar Semitic peoples who all share the same worldview and can easily convert to each other's religion >many of these Semitic peoples were under Roman rule, and spread over the empire, bringing their religious practices with them You should read Decline of the West from Spengler if you want truly understand this matter. But long story short, there are actually a fuckton of Middle Eastern people who are just like the jews and moslems: they have a bunch of holy texts that are supposedly coming from the prophets and saints of a single almighty god, and they also have a bunch of priests who interpret these texts and tell them the rules and laws that should govern their lives. And it was quite easy to switch from one collection of holy texts to an other. And because the Roman Empire already had Semites (not only jews) in every corner, it was easy to convert them to Christianity. And Christianity worked rather well not because its values were anything new (indeed, what Jesus was preaching was just common sense to all these Semites), but because the story of Jesus was a good one (at least for them): it meant that their struggle is finally over, they just have to worship this new messiah and they don't have to worry about anything in this life or the next one.

>>19772 >On the contrary, he criticizes spencer quite often maybe not for his flawed nationalism or shilling for eurasianism and Duginism/Nazbol, but for the same thing he calls all White Nationalists idiots for I mostly agree with you and they do make good punching bags for his rhetoric, but he never points out that they're literal foreign agents and that they wouldn't have platforms if they weren't. It's fairly obvious at this point that if we had a public platform the alt-kike would be dead in the water.

>>19869 I am going through Alfred Rosenberg's Myth and he also used Spengler's ideas of the Semitic Magical spirit and the European Faustian spirit. Rosenberg describes that these Semitic cults in Rome would often engage in practices like bodily mutilation, human sacrifice and even the consumption of feces. You can still see this to a lesser degree in Judaism and Islam, with circumcision, ritual slaughter and blood libel. But even in the Bible, you had Jesus encouraging men who wanted to remain celibate to castrate themselves. Rosenberg would also describe how these Semitic cult leaders would adopt the Roman/Greek myths but give them all sorts of degenerate interpretations, claiming that the symbolic meaning of the stories had to do with their already established practices of fecal consumption and pederasty. Something that seems similar to the post-modern deconstructions of every beloved cultural work by the Jews of today.

>>19869 Honestly I'd focus on the kikes than other Semites. I have no issue with semites. Just the kikes.

http://www.renegadetribune.com/great-jewish-rocknroll-swindle-part-13/ >Some people might think that this agenda of the Kosher Judeo-Masonic/’Satanic’ all-seeing eye mind control operation might be a recent phenomenon in popular music. Far from it, all this conspiracy started long ago, and it is not coincidence the 1960s were probably the era in which this agenda started fully fledged. We know what happened in those years so I’m not going to get redundant here. >One of the things that drives me crazy the most is that this argument is ALWAYS delivered from the ‘Christian perspective’ (just search some articles on the subject). One always ends up mired in this Christian eschatology of the forces of ‘evil’ personified by the ‘evil cabal of Illuminati’ conspirators in the entertainment industry (which is true of course, I’m not going to deny that) in contrast with the very virtuous Christian mindset. I want to make this exposé from a more realistic standpoint, discussing the issue without any messianic overtones of what it is; just controlled opposition. >Here we are given two choices, either you are with the Christians or you are with the ‘Satanic’ Masons of Big Media Incorporated. Just like everything else; Pepsi vs Coca-Cola, McDonalds vs Burger King, East vs West, Communist vs Capitalist, Democrat vs Republican, Trump vs Hillary, you name it. >One of the most important aspect of this music subculture has always been the aim to separate generations of folks. Now it all seems pretty clear to me that it was not an accident many of these so-called ‘urban tribes’ were created after the 1960s (it started earlier than that in actuality with greasers and mods), the most notorious of them was of course the ‘Hippie Generation’ (also known to many people as The Baby Boomer generation). Seeing it from a certain perspective, this ‘urban tribe’ phenomenon, as it evolved over the years, was trying to further divide a particular generation of young people into different compartments if you will, but most of all to separate the younger generation from the previous generations. The funny thing is that, surprise-surprise, we can find something very akin to that in the Bible of all places: >{10:34} Think not that I am come to send peace on earth: I came not to send peace, but a sword. {10:35} For I am come to set a man at variance against his father, and the daughter against her mother, and the daughter in law against her mother in law.” – Matthew, from The King James Version of the Holy Bible

>>22502 I have read this before. It's all essential reading. Even if one knows that music is subversive today, it honestly surprised me just how kiked it was even back then. I'm not a big music guy though so part of it may have just been ignorance on my part. I have written before how music of certain varieties plays a key role in the maintaining control over society and in influencing the minds of the masses.

->>22866 Kek I died

Abrahamics have made the choice to reject life in favor of death and "afterlife." The point of ultimate philosophy for them is what happens to their "eternal soul" and that real life is ephemeral and unimportant. National Socialism is a philosophy based on the well-being of the living, so it's directly opposed to the denial of life in favor of a death paradise which is the core of Abrahamism. It's a question of faith and philosophy. Abrahamic religions are globally dominant because they claim to answer an unknowable question (what happens after you die), while National Socialism only solves known questions in life, which is not acceptable to the fear-based thinking of Abrahamics. The thing to remember is that Abrahamics live life in a perpetual state of fear. Deep, abiding fear that they will live in eternal misery after their own deaths if they behave wrongly in certain ways. Frankly, it'd probably benefit us a lot if it was possible to freeze people in a death state, then bring them back so they can experience both life and death in adulthood, and not worry so much about being dead. If you can make an Abrahamic less afraid, you can probably deprogram them, but I couldn't imagine the amounts or types of resources required to do that on a widespread basis.

>>22882 I can’t help but think holding the threat of eternal hellfire over people is a good motivator to doing what we want them to do though. Basically it’s the doctrine of karma radically simplified into a one-life scheme and good “rebirth” (heaven) / bad “rebirth” (hell)

>>22882 Why would you sage an on-topic post? >The thing to remember is that Abrahamics live life in a perpetual state of fear. Deep, abiding fear that they will live in eternal misery after their own deaths if they behave wrongly in certain ways. They are cowards one and all better to kill them so that their cowardice does not live on than to risk infecting ourselves and our race with such disgusting behavior ever again. >Frankly, it'd probably benefit us a lot if it was possible to freeze people in a death state, then bring them back so they can experience both life and death in adulthood, and not worry so much about being dead. This would not be a benefit, and would only matter if you seek to recruit cowards. >If you can make an Abrahamic less afraid, you can probably deprogram them, but I couldn't imagine the amounts or types of resources required to do that on a widespread basis. There is literally no point whatsoever in doing this, the only person who can break an abrahamic believers conditioning is the person themselves, we can only give them the information that may cause them to finally reject the poison.

>>22887 When speaking of legacy, a man should do good in life to benefit his family, community, and volk after his death. If he lacks the character to do that, then he should be kept in line by law and societal pressure during his life. If a man is so broken that neither legacy nor legal/societal consequences keep him in line, then the threat of post-mortem magical hellfire will not help either. The vile behavior of so many supposed men of God is proof enough of this.

The Churches >THE Christian Church taught the equality of humanity from the beginning, and realized it in the areas it dominated. The jew Paul was above all responsible for the idea, despite his pride in his pure jewish ancestry. He won the inhabitants of the Roman Empire for the new faith. The Roman Empire experienced considerable mixing of peoples, which encouraged the rapid spread of the doctrine of racial equality. Anyone could become a Christian, whether Roman, Greek, jew, Negro, etc. As Christians they were all the same, for the important thing was that they belonged to the Church and accepted its teachings. The only differences that counted were those between believers and unbelievers, and between priests and the laity within the Church. Since all men were created in God’s image, all needed to be won for the Church. The goal is a unified humanity united in an all-encompassing Church led by the priests. The clearest expression of this comes in Pope Pius IX’s statement on 29 July 1938: “One forgets today that the human race is a single, large and catholic race.” >This religious doctrine did not come from the native religion of a race or of a racially pure people. It developed in the Orient during a period of racial chaos from the most varied cultures and found its final form under Byzantine influence. >Being absorbed into the Christian community and receiving Christian education did nothing to change or improve the nature or life styles of the various peoples, however. They were only rendered uncertain of their true nature, meaning that foreign influences interfered in areas where only blood should speak, for example the relations between men and women, spousal selection, the relationship between family and people, indeed in relations to foreign customs and life styles. In over a thousand years, Christianity has not succeeded in raising the cultural level of Negroes or South American Indians. But the Church has built walls where none should exist, for example those between Germans of varying confessions. if themselves and act according to their consciences. But the tragedy of the Reformation is that it began as a German revolution, but ended in a battle over dogmas — and Luther finally bound the conscience to the jewish teachings of the Bible. Copernicus, Kepler, Galileo and many other scientists began the battle between modern science and Church dogma. The European scientific spirit can only accept as true that is in accord with science and experience. Today even the once-immovable Church is asking questions about the equality of humanity. The National Socialist worldview, based on the knowledge of the laws of inheritance and the inequality of the races, will succeed in overcoming this ancient false teaching and return the German people to its native worldview. https://nationalvanguard.org/2021/02/our-enemies/

>>23668 Indirect music isn't inherently bad, it's just that it loses its momentary nature and can infringe on moments and mental spaces that it ought not to, and mainstream music (which makes the vast majority of playback time) is always destructive. You can listen to music in a positive manner if you listen to music with both artistic and ritualistic value. As the screenshot post states, music used to mark special events, and underscore important social or spiritual currents. Frequent listening both desensitizes you to great music, and lowers it to the mundane. For genres, you basically have to choose between classical and traditional folk, or if you're experienced with symbolism and harmonics, you can also take a gamble on more modern, experimental tracks. Anything that falls neatly into one modern genre is the plague and you better keep away from it.
