Ruination |
Friday – May 1, 2026

Ruination indeed – that is the way of the world in this 21st century. Everything keeps getting ruined and worse, at least this is how I see the world, and perhaps this is why this post should belong to my "Personal Notes series"? No, It will not, but that would be a great idea, though not in line with my intentions.

    The threat of a looming ruination is of course nothing new, at least not during the current deviation, and if you do not contribute your work and your "hard earned money", read "Gold", then you are out of luck I guess. See, the politicians will never cease to attempt to ruin the world further, because that is the only thing politicians know how to do – to cause great ruin. All of these ideas, ideologies, never seem to actually improve anything do they? Of course not, but people are stupid and feeble enough to still subscribe to this identity, because this is very much about identity, and besides people want to hold that faith; in lieu of knowledge people will always tend towards totalitarianism. I know that I am going off on a somewhat incoherent ramble, but let it be. See, when did politicians, yes this is about politicians in particular, ever improve something, can they even improve stuff? Of course not, politics, read about "Ideological Indoctrination", was never about "improving" anything, HA HA HA! No, no, no, politics was always about control and above all the perpetuation of the materialist order, read "Temporal Power", and whatever medium could facilitate this the best—in most cases mass politics, read about that here—is simply used for that end, and today the degeneration imposed by politics has degenerated intellectualism to such a point that it is considered quite natural and normal to be "political"; there are even scientists, profane though they are, that are attempting to promote the idea that certain people are "born" more liberal in attitude while certain other people are "born" more conservative in attitude – truly a monstrous theory, read about "Political Objectification". Of course, there is no such thing a liberal or conservative; there are only people that are more skilled and people that are less skilled, and for the most part people who tend to be less skilled tend also to default to a kind of position that seeks to further promote the status quo, that is to say a perpetually losing position, which makes conservatives, at least within the political arena, perpetual losers, read more about that here. Yes, it is largely true that so-called conservatives tend to be lower in mentality, at least as of late, but this whole point is redundant. Besides, what is there to conserve, when the very thing you are attempting to conserve knows nothing other than destruction and ruination? In that case you would indeed be better off being liberal to the point of leaving politics behind entirely; in that case you would be better off embracing modernity to its extreme logical conclusion.

    Also, on the larger point of ruination, what you must understand in this very materialist world is that anxiety and fear, call it stress, are considered quite benefic features, because work, not to confuse necessarily with "Working Out", is the only thing modern people know how to do. The entire concept of having a job would, of course, have been considered absolutely preposterous only two short centuries ago, but this is the new standard. Indeed, moderns love to standardize everything, read "The Problem of Borders"; and yes, you are of course standardized as well, almost down to the cellular level. But most people do not care about this, as long as they can continue to overeat and indulge in their addictions, read about "Beauty Standards" as well, because beauty is not the standard today. When in the past there was such a thing as sacred geometry in most architecture for instance, most modern architecture is not only monstrously ugly, but brutal, read "Cynicism". Brutalism is really something that appears to speak to the predilections of the populist horde, read "Directing Films", "Respect", and "Democracy". Indeed, it does seem that most things are getting worse, and if you have noticed this too, then you are not alone, but that point I made about conservatism should be taken seriously, because by definition conservatism is always more destructive than anything else, and besides everyone should know that the revolutionary elite, more than anything else, relies on conservatism; only pioneers dear to ever push these people and their ideas aside, even though these same pioneers will cause greater ruin, but the point is that it is the conservatives who actually facilitate the system that enables ruin in the first place, and besides, since conservatism tends to be appealing to the most primitive elements anyways, this should be enough of a sign to stay away, read "Radical Peace". Also, if you feel threatened by the presence of potential ruin, then you are already off to a disastrous start, because soon they will make you dependent on them, and while you depend on them they will keep threatening to cut you off, and especially this is a feature of the supposedly "traditional" elements. Yes, conservatives will be your ruin far more than anyone else; stay away!

    Of course, in the past many men faced ruin, but these were also the pioneering souls of the less settled mentality, read "The Census" and for them what may appear to be ruination is often no such thing and actually this is their way of leading a life, since for these people time was never the limit, but most people of the settled, may I add Western, mentality are far too stupid to realize this, and racist. Indeed, it is a kind of racism that continues to keep Western men in the dirt, but this racism alone represents our current trajectory and is in no way a problem that can be isolated, but it is true that Western men think of themselves as "superior", yet they now live in ruin, but as this will intensify they will only become more and more erratic and and aggressive. The fact is, that Western men tend to be less superior, from the point of view of a truly Hierarchical social organization that lends itself easily towards a corporative social structure. Besides, what Western men lack is true qualification, something that has become almost entirely lost, and this is why the Western world is drowning in ruin and will continue on this trajectory towards ruination, read my "Future series". Besides, from the point of view of justice and cosmological order, certain scholars argue that it indeed is necessary for the Western world to face ruin, but this is a topic for another time. Whenever you walk into the world, you will face ruin and there is not much you can do about this. This is why you will be better off by leaping towards the abyss, that or retiring from the world.
