≠ EXILE ALL LEFTISTS ≠<a class="hashtag" href="https://annihilation.social/tag/introduction" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#Introduction</a>, or "everyone wants to be Trad until it's time to do Trad shit." I write philosophy of a practical nature, and my primary concern is avoiding <a class="hashtag" href="https://annihilation.social/tag/theecocide" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#TheEcocide</a>. Humanity has to get itself organized and then evolve in order to save Earth ecosystems. Based on historical data, I endorse the <a class="hashtag" href="https://annihilation.social/tag/fourpillars" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#FourPillars</a>: 1. Culture-rule: remove bureaucracy, have a unified culture=ethnicity=religion. This requires ethno-nationalism or remigration of all foreign ethnic groups. This is more significant than racial nationalism and opposes both civic nationalism and diversity-socialism. 2. Hierarchy and excellence: social classes are genetically different, and higher IQ makes better decisions, therefore we need both (a) a caste system and (b) constant competition in a natural selection context. This avoids getting overwhelmed by deleterious mutations through unchecked gene drift. We also must aspire to a goal of excellence (arete) as part of our pursuit of the transcendentals "the good, the beautiful, and the real." Aesthetics are important for making choices, and reflect our genetics; nature is both relativistic and consistent, which means that we know only what our genetics allow us to know, and this informs the decisions that we make. 3. Positive reward systems: this means no socialism, wealth redistribution, unions, or other negative reward systems; instead of trying to bring people up to equality by pulling down others, we reward the good, remove the bad, and leave everyone in the middle alone. If they do no harm... do as thou wilt. This includes hard eugenics to remove those who are defective and dangerous to normal people -- insane, "homeless," criminal, promiscuous, retarded -- through exile. A rapist at age 15 is not going to change his stripes, so instead of judging by laws we should assess people quality and remove those incompatible with healthy life for our people. 4. A transcendental goal: we cannot allow material goals (means-over-ends) to overshadow our goal of constant improvement in mind, body, and soul as individuals and as a civilization. Transcendental goals mean accepting nature as it is, both "good" and "bad," and finding a way to adapt and thrive by maximizing the patterns of nature. We are not here to avoid suffering or tragedy, but to make sure our lives are moving toward fulfilling ends, and we accept that bad things will happen and every person has a different destiny. Some are born to sweet delight, and some are born to the endless night. My philosophy involves two novel concepts, <a class="hashtag" href="https://annihilation.social/tag/crowdism" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#Crowdism</a> and <a class="hashtag" href="https://annihilation.social/tag/parallelism" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#Parallelism</a>. * Crowdism states that all human groups bond on the lowest common denominator, which is fear, so they self-censor mentions of what they fear, and by artificially narrowing their mental maps, create a world of <a class="hashtag" href="https://annihilation.social/tag/symbolism" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#symbolism</a> which drifts farther from reality whether endorsed or opposed through the <a class="hashtag" href="https://annihilation.social/tag/hegelianstepladder" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#HegelianStepladder</a> in which reactions to a first mover idea end up affirming it. This is a form of survivorship bias, since we are reacting to other reactions instead of going back to the roots of perception, analysis, imagination, and intuition to understand our world. This means that dualism, socialism, and other forms of individualism are inherent to the individual and amplified by the group. There are no evils manipulating us, only our own error; our enemy is stupidity and anti-realism which we are prone to because we get stronger/clearer signals from our own desires and other people communicating through tokens, language, and symbols than we do from the murky and gritty flood of details that is reality. * Parallelism says that nature creates in parallel between all possible forms. Notably, thought, material, energy, and pattern are parallel, which means that changes in each reflect the other. Past and future are parallel (cyclic). Different groups evolve in parallel but unevenly because they are relative to one another and also to the whole, which means that a condition like "objectivity" but more accurately described as logical consistency exists. Different individuals learn about life in parallel, a process known as esotericism, and until they have learned the precursors for an idea, it is invisible to them and they will oppose it through a variation on the <a class="hashtag" href="https://annihilation.social/tag/dunningkrugereffect" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#DunningKrugerEffect</a>. In politics, parallelism means that each ethnic group seeks its own autonomy, homeland, and self-determination of its composition and future. That negates the assumptions of goodness behind both colonialism and anti-colonialism. Each group must follow its own path, which only it can define, and dwell alone, so that it can pursue its unique destiny. We see the proof of this in constant friction created by diversity (having more than one ethnic group in a society) in areas like Kosovo, Northern Ireland, Catalan, and Rwanda. Parallelism and culture-rule state that only mono-ethnic societies have a change to survive; diversity forces each group to act for its own interests against the other groups, and will eventually destroy them through <a class="hashtag" href="https://annihilation.social/tag/traceadmixture" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#traceadmixture</a> which replaces the original group with a hybrid. Ethnic diversity is genocide. I offer up further observations: 1. Reality is the only morality. "Might is right," sure, but strength does not determine what thrives in the long term. I reject all symbolism and emotion as parts of the analysis or decision process. Reality alone is consistent and whole (and we are relative to the whole as well as each other) and so the only moral decisions that can be made are based in <a class="hashtag" href="https://annihilation.social/tag/consequentialism" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#consequentialism</a> or measuring the effects on reality instead of our judgments, desires, and sensations in reaction to it. 2. While I am a flaming ethno-nationalist who endorses mono-ethnic societies to avoid genocide, I know good people from every religion, tribe, race, culture, ethnicity, and social class. To protect each group, ethno-nationalism is required. My position is not adversarial to these groups, but nor is it opposed to recognizing <a class="hashtag" href="https://annihilation.social/tag/humanbiodiversity" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#humanbiodiversity</a> (#hbd) and the variations between groups, which are genetic in origin and not "culture" in the sense modern people use the term (political culture, laws, and conflict-avoiding socializing strategies). 3. Half Earth cures all of our environmental problems and nothing else does a damn thing, so all other environmental activism should be discarded. 4. Natural Rights are much better than civil rights (called "human rights" in an international context) because civil/human rights create a government interest in all interactions public and private. That leads to big government, then scientific management, the managerial-administrative state, and finally tyranny when the bureaucracy represents its interests against those of its population. 5. Eugenics is necessary to ensure genetic health. This continues <a class="hashtag" href="https://annihilation.social/tag/naturalselection" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#naturalselection</a> in a civilizational context by removing threats to those who will thrive. It cannot exist in a poly-ethnic context because standards are not common to multiple ethnic groups, and this will unfairly and unwisely disadvantage (a) whatever group gets the worst of this and (b) both groups by forcing an averaging of standards. 6. We seek proaction not reaction as individuals, tribes, and species. We need transcendental goals or we are merely reacting to stimulus including solipsistic stimulus from our own brains including emotions, judgments, peer pressure, and desires. Humanity is evolving out of a monkeylike past in which individualism ruled and people did whatever triggered the strongest stimulus-response, to one in which we "think of as all" per Roky Erickson. I build my political construct within the work of Plato and Fred Nietzsche. It is parts libertarian, monarchist, traditionalist, and futurist, hence the term <a class="hashtag" href="https://annihilation.social/tag/futuristtraditionalism" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#futuristtraditionalism</a> that I use to describe it.

Popular Culture: 1. "Be excellent to each other." - Bill and Ted 2. "Sodomize the weak." - Blood 3. "Think of as all." - Roky Erickson 4. "You get what you give." - Deicide 5. "There are no easy answers to the problems that we face, history's a lesson, let us learn by our mistakes." - Kurt Brecht 6. "One law for the ox and the raven is tyranny." - William Blake 7. "The sick must die." - Nguy Lamont Hughs 8. "With every mistake, we must surely be learning." - George Harrison 9. "Life is suffering." - Siddhartha If you combine these, you end up with a reasonable realistic and yet optimistic outlook on imperfect life. As Paul Ledney says, there is no perfection or purity because these would be boring, like eating an infinite donut on a soft fluffy cloud in the "prosperity gospel" vision of Heaven. Heaven is more appropriately Nibbana, a state of mind which carries between before-life, current life, and afterlife, but requires effort and escaping solipsism. Religion To my mind, religions are vocabularies for discussing philosophical concepts about the interaction between physical and metaphysical dimensions of our reality. As a result, I embrace <a class="hashtag" href="https://annihilation.social/tag/perennialism" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#perennialism</a>, which says that religions share a common understanding of the metaphysical; it does not say that all religions are the same, are "equal" (equality does not exist in nature because equality is the opposite of quality, or degree of texture to reality) or any other such Unitarian or universalist dogma. It says they found the same truths. Religiously, I am a Platonist who borrows extensively from Greco-Roman beliefs, occultism, and Luciferian ideals. Mission: I seek a traditional society in unison with parallels between nature, biology, and the divine. Metal: I also write about a variant of heavy metal music known as "underground metal," splitting into subgenres like death metal, black metal, grindcore, doom metal, speed metal, and thrash. The creator of the oldest and longest-running metal website, Death Metal Underground, as well as its precursor from early web, BBS, and FTP days, the Dark Legions Archive, I have been writing about metal on AEs through the internet since the late 1980s. I endorse a philosophy called "hessianism" which bases an aesthetics of affirmative, positive realism upon recognition of the necessity of entropy and therefore, a <a class="hashtag" href="https://annihilation.social/tag/hedonicimperative" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#hedonicimperative</a> to make life pleasurable and epic instead of trying to avoid suffering.
