The level of discussion speaks volumes of the people we have in the movement. I very much enjoyed listening to the contributors and how they applied their digestion of the material to practical matters. Thank you to those who orchestrated today's voice chat and a huge kudos to @CarletonJ for bringing the discussion points to establish a flowing structure.

Looking forward to next weekend!

Sorry I missed the general chat gents. I was at a wake this eve.

No worries, man. We'll have another next Sunday.

AESTHETICS - According to its Greek etymology, ’that which evokes a strong sensation'. Aesthetics is linked to notions of beauty, harmony, achievement of form.

Contemporary egalitarian ideology abhors and implicitly demonises aesthetics. It associates (rightly) the will to power with discipline, which it considers morally unacceptable, ‘fascist’ in effect. This ideology opposes aesthetics to ‘ethics’ and situates itself in ethics’ iconoclastic tradition.

With the plastic arts, architecture, cinema, literature, theatre, even fashion, the ugly, the unachieved, the unformed, the most far-fetched nonsense, the shady and the watered down are now preferred to the aesthetic, which is made synonymous with a menacing ‘order’.

Since the mid-Twentieth century, contemporary arts, encouraged by the dominant ideology, have rejected any notion of aesthetics. Instead of harmony, the power of forms, the exaltation and elevation of sensation and beauty - notions of abstract ‘conceptual art’ are preferred, which becomes a pretext for degeneracy, wilful ugliness, and subsidised incompetence. Abstraction accordingly reigns, just as a jargonising meaninglessness and obscurity enthrals the intellectuals. The genuine aesthete, the authentic artist, is ostracised or marginalised -as if he were politically incorrect. Hence, the paradox of a society that strives to be ‘moral’ and humanistic, but ends up privileging barbarism, the inversion of values, and new forms of primitivism. We’re witnessing the simultaneous cohabitation of (1) abstruse ‘contemporary’ art subsidised by the system, (2) a cult which turns the ‘past’ into museum pieces, and (3) a commercial and consumerist subculture. Contemporary art has become the very opposite of avant-garde art. Its sad impostures haven’t budged for a century. It combines a dull academism, imposture, an absence of talent, and financial speculation. Instead of aesthetics, the system prefers pessimistic or suicidal values of representation, those that come from chaos and deformity, nonsense, pathological abstraction, regression, infantilism, scatology, a psychotic pornography: the exaltation of primitive forms (what the visionary Céline called ‘the tom-tom cult’ or what Chirac calls ‘primitive art”). Accompanying this wretchedness, this impotence of old men, there’s the vulgar, artificial boom of costume culture, which is to culture what costume jewellery is to jewellery.

The rejection of aesthetics is crucial to the dominant ideology. For aesthetics, at root, is aristocratic, opposed to massification and fake elites.

ALIEN - Within a given population, those who are culturally and biologically of non-indigenous origin.

AMERICANISM - Americanism is the ideological affirmation of the general domination exercised by the United States and its social-cultural model - which are seen as the apotheosis of modernity and Western civilisation.

ANTI-RACISM - In the guise if combating racism and xenophobia, this doctrine encourages discrimination in favor of aliens, the dissolution of European identity, the multi-racialisation of European society, and, at root, paradoxically, racism itself.

---ANTI-RACISM, moreover, translates into a racial obsession and contradicts itself, since it partisans deny the existence of races. In promoting open borders and dogmatically encouraging multi-racial society, anti-racists end up objectively provoking racism.

ARCHEOFUTURISM - The attitude that approaches the future in terms of ancestral values, believing that notions of modernism and traditionalism need to be dialectically transcended.

---Archeofuturism opposes both modernity and conservatism, seeing them as versos of one another and believing that modernity is backward-looking, having failed to realize either its ideals or great projects.

ARISTOCRACY - Literally and etymologically, 'the government of the best'. Second meaning: 'The class of the best'. The problem is defining the 'best' and determining if it actually governs society.

---Those who defend their people before their own interests, those who respond to real anthropological and cultural criteria: this is the criteria for defining aristocrats.

ASSIMILATION - The belief that the immigrant masses can become French or European if they renounce their cultural origins.

---All assimilation is equivalent to cultural genocide, for the assimilator or the assimilated.

AUTARKY OF GREAT SPACES - The organization of the world economy into autonomous, self-centered great spaces, in opposition to globalism's capitalist and free trade dogmas

---The autarky of great spaces is no obsidional closure, but an exercise in contingency: only those things that can't be produced domestically are imported. International exchanges are thus limited but not suppressed.

BELIEF IN MIRACLES - The general prejudice inherent to egalitarian and humanitarian utopias, as well as the philosophy of progress - which holds 'one can have everything at the same time' and that reality is no obstacle.

---Illusion of infinite development, pedagogical illusion, communist conception of solidarity illusion, illusion of immigration as a benefit, Third-world illusion, ecological illusion, and illusion of the new economy.

BIOPOLITICS - A political project oriented to a people's biological and demographic imperatives.

---Biopolitics is a policy devoted to the long range preservation and improvement of a people's biological germen. (Eugenics)

BORN LEADER - A creative personality imbued with a historical vision of the world.

---History is the fertilization of a people's passive soul by the active soul of its born leaders.

BOURGEOISISM - The mental characteristics of the petty bourgeoisie, extended to the whole of modern society irrespective of social class.

---The modern petty bourgeoisie or middle class dominating present-day society tries to be 'trendy', but betrays an extraordinary conformity. It's both the target and the principle actor in the ideological/intellectual establishment of the reigning soft totalitarianism.

CHAOS, ETHNIC - A historical situation in which people or civilisation loses its ethnic basis due to the mass immigration of aliens.

---Ethnic chaos was a factor in the decomposition of the Roman Republic and Empire, Pharanoic-Egyptian civilization, and many ancient Greek cities. Europe is presently in the grip of a colonising settlement by overseas peoples. A civilization disappears once it loses it original ethnic basis. It becomes a patchwork quilt in which any idea of city, community, and destiny is impossible.
Ethnic chaos signals the pure and simple disappearance of a people and a civilization - and of true democracy - as all the classical Greek philosophers warned.

CHAOS, POST-CHAOS - Chaos is that state of disorganization and anarchy affecting a collectivity of any sort, once it's beset by catastrophe. The post-chaos is that phase when a new order is reconstructed on the basis of a revolutionary, metamorphic logic.

CIRCULATION OF ELITES - An expression of the sociologist Vildredo Pareto to designate the process by which elites are renewed, new blood brought in, and incompetence shed.

---The circulation of elites requires a principle of rigorously selecting the best and most deserving, in a word, it's an 'intelligent inegalitarianism' founded on justice. The selection of elites, like the notion of aristocracy, is based on principles of freedom and competition: 'The best wins.'

Apologies can't do voice right now. Hope the discussion is going well the metapolitical dictionary has been a pleasant read.

CIVIL WAR, ETHNIC - The grave and foreseeable confrontation between native Europeans and the alien colonizers, mainly of Afro-Maghrebian origin - a confrontation that threatens to break out in France and Belgium early in the Twenty-first century.

---It's only the outbreak of a real civil war that will resolve the present problems of colonization, Africanization, and Islamization - the greatest tragedy in European history and one which completely escapes the perspicscity of her 'elites', who are either blind or enemy collaborators.

---It's only when their backs are against the wall, faced with an unavoidable emergency, that people find solutions that in other times are unthinkable.

---Conditions for civil war are still not quite ripe, given the apathy of Europe's anesthetized population (anesthetized by market society and various guilt-inducing ideologies.) These conditions will soon ripen:

1) Once the state starts falling into the hands of Afro-Maghrebian and Muslim 'communities.'

2) Once the degradation of the people's economic situation (provoked in part by the aging population) is compounded by a conspicuous increase in Afro-Maghrebian criminality, as it reaches unsupportable levels and is linked to more and more pronounced alien conquests of the national territory. One never revolts when the shopping cart is full.

---It's all a matter of reaching that stage where the population clearly sees the danger. There will be no European rebellion until Afro-Maghrebians hold power and are seen thus as oppressors and occupiers - not until the economic catastrophe resulting from immigration and demographic decline breaks out. This is slowly beginning.

It's going well. Hopefully you can join us soon. We'll be reading more books in the future, so you'll have plenty of chances.

COLONIZATION - The occupation and permanent installation of a people (or several peoples) on another people's homeland. This term is preferable to that of immigration.

@Praetorian if you type out what you want to say, I'll read it.

COMMUNITARIANISM - The doctrine that diverts and disfigures the notion of 'community.' Of American origin, communitarianism is a doctrine advocating the cohabitation of different ethnic communities within the same society, each with its own laws, imaging that harmony between these different communities is possible.

---The communitarian doctrine and those who defend it are, objectively, complicit with ethnic colonisation and Islamic invasion.

COMMUNITY, COMMUNITY-OF-A-PEOPLE - A group whose organic bonds are animated by sentiment of belonging, homogeneity, heritage, and wanting to live together and share the same destiny.

---The community-of-a-people is organically subdivided into encompassing sub-communities: nations, regions, towns, clans, families, etc. True democracy, in the classic Greek sense, is only possible within such a communal context.

---The community-of-the-people - given that solidarity, social justice, freedom, security, defense, and the transmission of values are possible within it - operates with at least a minimum of ethnic unity and a sense of innate belonging.

Thanks for the discussion! Have to duck out. Phone call. Nice hearing from everyone.

@SamanthaM thanks for joining! We'll be doing another discussion next week!

COMPETITION - The clash of living-forms for supremacy and survival.

--- Competition affects every domain of existence; it's observable between individuals and between groups. Communal solidarity is the sole element mitigating its harshness. I'm blunting the individual's egoism, it's goal is to ensure the superiority of the comminity over other communities.

CONCEPTION-OF-THE-WORLD - The ensemble of values and interpretations of reality - implicitly or explicitly distinct to a specific human group - whether a people, a civilization, a family or thought, political or not, a religion, etc.

---In the European, Western universe, there are two opposed conceptions-of-the-world. The dominant one, issuing from Judaeo-Christianity, is egalitarian, individualistic, and cosmopolitan. European paganism, can be called inegalitarian, communalist, and ethnic.

CONSCIOUSNESS, ETHNIC - The individual or collective consciousness if the necessity to defend the biological and cultural identity of one's people, the indispensable condition for the longevity and autonomy of its civilization.

---Ethnic consciousness clashes with the prejudices of modern anti-racism and ethnomasochism, both of which afflict Europeans. The dominant ideology demonises ethnic consciousness and equates it with a racist perversion and a will to persecute. Europeans thereby denied the right to an ethnic consciousness, a right which every other people has been granted.

CONSCIOUSNESS, HISTORICAL - The consciousness of belonging to a civilization and to a people long inscribed in a distinct history and destiny.

---Absence of historical consciousness will undoubtedly become the tomb of Western civilization, incapable as it now is of envisioning the future or measuring up to the stature of its past - and thus unable to ensure its own survival.

CONSUMERISM - Choice of a society founded exclusively on the quantitative dimension of its members' material consumption - to detriment of all other considerations.

CONVERGENCE OF CATASTROPHES - The converging lines if civilization rupture that in the course of the Twenty-first century will consume the 'modern world' in a great planetary chaos.

---From this chaos - which will be extremely painful at the planetary level - there will emerge the possibility of a new post-catastrophic world order - the painful birth of a new civilization.

---Lines-of-catastrophe:
1) The cancerizstion of Europe's social fabric.
2) Factors of social rupture in Europe will be aggravated by an economic-demographic crisis that will culminate in mass poverty.
3) Chaos in the Global south.
4) Threat of a world financial crisis.
5) The rise of fanatical, fundamentalist religions, especially Islam.
6) North-South confrontation, highlighting ethnic-theological differences.
7) The uncontrollable pollution of the planet.

COSMOPOLITANISM - The belief that the systematic mélange of cultures is preferable to the identity of each culture - the belief that comes from prejudice that some sort of world civilization is necessary.

---Cosmopolitanism is nothing but a failed differentialism. It's ideal of mixing cultures for the sake of creating a single world culture is essentially totalitarian.
