This is actually real stuff and the reason why global slavers push the masses to only believe in the material world. People have the capacity to interact with the spiritual world because we exist in both simultaneously. It's not enough to just not teach spiritual practices, the slavers of this world must systematically abuse and manipulate us from birth to sever this connection (organized religions are a part of that effort). Without this outside abuse and manipulation, humans naturally develop their spirituality, as we've seen throughout all of history.

When you sever this connection in a person, they really have no option but to become a good little materialist slave, easily controlled by things like money. Modern spiritual practice isn't about tapping into something outside of you, it's about removing the "shackles", so to speak, that prevented you from harmonizing with what was inside you all along.

Imagination is actually one of the ways we dialogue with our spiritual selves. Do not mistake imagination for simple material fantasies though, true imagination is something entirely different and why they design systems to stunt children from its natural development. Cripple anything in its developmental phase and it is much, much harder to develop later on in life, if not impossible for some.

Eh, loathe as I am to agree with Rudy Tuesday I can sympathize with the sentiment that a lot of published historical work is just learned nonsense. There is a crisis of accreditation in academia where there are far more history degrees than chairs and museum positions to hand out and so the journals have been repurposed as a sort of pressure release valve. I still remember a discussion with one of my professors where she offhandedly mentioned how one issue of a very specialized academic journal was mostly made up of papers from two people who were using it as a vehicle to argue with each other.

What irritates me is that all of these supposed anti-intellectuals jump on the "appeal to authority" bandwagon whenever it suits them because they unconsciously believe in the thing they claim to be against. Whenever a professor from prestigious university says something they agree with they parade his credentials around and whenever a man they disagree with is a college dropout they make sure to mention it and disregard his argument completely. It's like right wing version of racism in a sense that leftists aren't anti-racists but divert their racism towards acceptable targets (uncle toms, conservative gays, etc)

On the back of a long-brewing Twitter spergout between the online LCMS (mainstream conservative Lutheran church) factions — the “I’m not a Nazi I just think being based is cool and the Holocaust is a lie and Hitler is cool, but I’m totally not a Nazi” and the people who say this is anathema — Rudy puts in his own take for a BASED TRVD church, immediately attracting the typical online Catholics.


“Idea. Make a church for based men. We study esoteric passages in the Bible, have philosophic discussions about the nature of God, do forgotten mystic rituals, use the gateway protocol to commune with the spirit world. We meditate and study Aquinas. We drink and party a lot.”

Is there a single guy in the far right “Christianity is cucked and not based and masculine enough” sphere that can bench 225?

Did Rudyard just accidentally invent Hasidic Judaism but for Christians?

Rudyard wants to start explaining "highly complex philosophers" like Hegel to smart high school seniors specifically (everything is about his experiences in high school). Now the only problem is that he's never actually read anything by Hegel, the best he could do was make it ~20% of the way through "The Philosophy of History" before giving up, giving a bad review, and functionally calling Hegel a dishonest pseudointellectual, as can be evidenced from his goodreads.

I like how most of the books he dislikes are books he hasn't even fully read. Kinda hard to consider him a legitimate intellect by those standards.

Fucking hilarious, because you really can't understand the political state of the world today without understanding Hegel and Kant shaping all the great thinkers that came after.
Yes, Hegel is a terrible writer and is responsible for the continental tradition being fond of obscurantist prose styles, but you're not going to understand the underpinnings of modern political science and non-analytical philosophy without him.

Has Rudy actually read Spengler? I find that most people who speak of him haven't read him outside of excerpts. Much of the "Decline of the West" is mining nuggets of insight from a dross of near schizo ramblings, which is why most people read the abridged version.

I like how he tries so hard to be taken serious as a legit force in right wing politics but then at the same time keeps talking about crazy stuff like the “spirt world” as if it’s something real and not at all insane sounding.

Sadly he is quite popular and has access to larger platforms because Civil War is a very cherished fantasy. He's a great avatar for it given the contradiction between how he wants to be seen and his bespectacled reality. That isn't the same as being "taken seriously" but he's definitely more (directly) influential than someone like Jared Taylor. What someone like Taylor has going for him is inspiring actually smart people who in turn influence new people and so on. That probably isn't the case for Rudyard.

And also a lot of the non-racist right wing believes in demons and shit so the spirit world stuff probably doesn't hurt him either.

Let's just say the hereditarians are hard-carrying this team in terms of intellectual output.
