Any of you fans of Blake by any chance? Recently wrote a paper on him(also saw his works displayed in the tate) and I think he is such an interesting (and at the time controversial) figure. Definitely my favorite poet. Also, though its been a while since I've read fiction but blood meridian was/still is/will forever be my favorite novel. I'd love to hear some of your recommendations. Now I have to work on my dissertation and it's going to cover the topic of nihilism and its effects on an individual and societal level, and I'm going to cover schopenauer, Nietzsche, Cioran, Zappfe and Ligotti. If you have any books that cover the psychological dimension of nihilism, hmu.

I used to read a lot of sci fi like p.k. dick, Asimov, Ellison and vonnegut, outgrew that shit (still enjoy it from time to time though) I mostly read philosophy, cause its my major. Looking also to broaden my theological knowledge cause its limited/ non existent since I used to be one of those "god is a fairy tale for fools" retard.

>any books that cover the psych dimension of nihilism
explain further please

As in what nihilists, not necessarily clinically depressed individuals, believe. Studies on their mental state and such.

On a mildly related tangent, what's everyone's thoughts on Kaczynski? I'm working my way through Industrial Society and It's Future right now, it seems mostly pretty solid as far as I can tell

He's decent. He actually helped me understand the "evils" of modern technology and how it creates apathy

I'd argue it even creates Schizoids

I mean, I'd take him as a shining example of what it does to people tbh, even if you could argue self fulfilling prophesy

He did write another manifesto

That I want to read

But I empathize a lot, CS Lewis and GK Chesterton wrote a lot about nature too, I think it's an aspect of life that's been criminally appropriated by liberals with petitions and neglected by the church in favor of blind fellowship (which isn't a bad thing in its place, but insight into peace is rarely found in a loud gathering hall).

Creation shouldn't be worshipped, but it was given to us to enjoy, and was created to bring us joy, and urbanization and industrialization spits in the face of that

@SUPER MALE VITALITY™ environmentalism in general is something neglected by the modern right a lot, when agrarianism was one of the main tenets of fascism in general. Hess was a major greenie, and spearheaded 'blood and soil'. Much of the animal rights laws were introduced because of him, but nowadays the right doesnt give a fuck about nature. Its quite sad. I wrote (but didnt finish) an aplogetic article about the role of man according to the story of Eden, as stewards and caretakers of the environment

It's vital, a lot of the grassroots right is really into conservation as well, it isn't even a fringe belief, the right is just spearheaded by corporatists. Personally, I think cities by principle are anti-christian. They're just behemoths, created to feed into themselves to concentrate large purportions of the population away from the gifts God has given to them and condemn generations to misery when the land they left is replenished by those who stayed behind, trapping the impoverished in the machine

The devil has decieved people into thinking that living in a 200'x200' box with a toilet and sink 40 stories up is a dream to aspire to, where you never leave a six block radius from cradle to grave, never see the stars, never breath the fresh, cool morning breeze blowing off a creek

Its not wrong, many of the bible stories about suffering and disharmony comes when the israelites become urbanised, or when they are conquered by an urbanised people. Egypt, Assyria and Babylon were all "cultural centres" if you catch my drift. When the Israelites failed to drive out the Canaanites, they followed in the same path of suffering. I think its very difficult for someone who is subject of the cities to... fully become christian

So people become bitter and twisted, and out of touch with the grandeure of reality, they reduce it to phone wallpapers and instagram likes. It's exacly like Babylon, or more specifically Babel. The first truely cultural sin man ever comitted was building a city where they could all live, to try to reach paradise by scheming and machination densely packed into a tower

Now we have Babel x1000 and nobody expects that tower to fall, but those centers are so fragile, and when judgement falls on even one the consequences are brutal. More than a few at once is collapse and mass suffering and death. Judgement is coming to cities, and it hurts my heart to see the volume of decieved they have birthed to wreak havoc on the rest of the world, and the fates awaiting them. But nit much can be done anymore I suppose. The deception has played its course, and the best we can do is get far away

Idk if it'll be an EMP, natural disasters, a solar flare, invasion, or what, but it'll be a horror as yet unseen when things fall apart

Part of the issue with leftist environmentalism stuff is that they lie constantly, and their solution is always government regulations that tend not to fix the problem or fix it, but very inefficiently

The left doesn't actually care about the environment. It's literally just a money/power grab to raise government revenue and reach

The right has historically cared about the environment actually. It's neo-cons that don't care at all.

Paleo-cons and paleo-libertarians are usually very much about preserving nature

I disagree. The left NPCs care about the environment and are herded along to be useful idiots by the leftists in power to power grab with a righteous purpose. @Quarantine_Zone

Like how they use children who believe in what they are saying to push their agenda. They use their voting block who are too dumb to think for themselves to advocate more control for bogus reasons.

I think the the actual organizations and the voters do care about the environment

But I don't think the government bureaucrats do

I'd recommend listening to Molyneaux videos on climate change

Nah, I'm red pilled on climate change already

They only care about public image

climate change is real goy

((((believe it))))

Climate change is real

Is real

Israel

And now look at Palestine

Look at how Palestine is melting

It is due to global warming

GLOBAL WARMING IS A CREATION OF ISRAEL TO MELT DOWN PALESTINE

Tbh, while I wouldn't choose to finance Israel, I also don't mind them fucking Palestine because Palestinians are worse than Jews
