We’re participating in the end of a world, and have no ability to arrest the process. Why? Because there is an absolute disjunction between the world we have inherited called ”culture”—that is word- and currency- based, broadcast/typified by MSM, that constitutes the subject taught/perpetuated by educational institutions—and bios.
However much we negotiate our human relations, these negotiations occur in an imaginary world that is tethered to the evolutionary history of the earth by nothing. An old friend of mine has a blog on substack and he just published a glowing eulogy of Dr. Ruth that mentions she escaped the Holocaust and “joined the Hagenah in Palestine as sniper” before concluding that “She was an example to us all and m[a]y her memory be a true blessing”. He’s a wealthy, enterprising NYC liberal who considers himself to be morally upright and confidently promotes himself as such. The fact that Dr. Ruth committed genocide does not occur to him. He has no clue that wants us all to follow her example and commit genocide. His cultural narrative is Zionist, but it is nested within the larger Anglo-American narrative of racist settler colonialism. This nesting normalizes his fascism and prevents him from being aware he is fascist. He is unconscious of his moral depravity, and that his liberalism is fake. This unconsciousness is something he shares with the majority of AngloAmericans—it is the nothing that has no roots in bios. "Make believe".
Our cultural narratives are what keep us together, providing us with the masterplot and scripts that form and motivate our characters; we speak intelligibly and sanely only what has already been spoken for us; our identities are spoken for or else they are “other” “alien” “crazy” “terrorist” etc. My NYC friend is fascist because liberalism is a narrative that has been and is used to mask and mollify the constant criminal and suicidal activities of AngloAmerican industrial capitalism—recall how G W Bush told the world “You are either with us or against us”? If you are not existing within and conforming to the totalitarian AngloAmerican narrative, you are a terrorist and deserve to be annihilated—and it’s your fault that you are a target.
The end of this AngloAmerican world is revealed on a personal level by the disjunction between myself and my old friend. A few months ago I replied to some of his racist opinions—he calls Palestinians “rats,” for ex—in the hopes that he might correct them but I no longer bother. My well-meaning critiques have no positive effect for he has become more racist and supportive of Zionist genocide of non-Zionists.
On the personal level we experience cultural collapse. We defriend, cancel and ghost each other. We censor our speech and avoid discussing troubling issues. We are increasingly alone and lonely.
On the cultural level, we participate in a political process that, despite our deepest concerns, delivers fascism.
Fascism expresses the telos of the sum total infrastructure of industrial capitalism we call the megamachine. The megamachine began being constructed in Sumer in the form of irrigation canals; from oligarchic control of water/life, written language, bureaucracy and divine kings and their attendant deities were developed. The Anglocentric industrial revolution toxified the megamachine making it biocidal. We cannot turn off the AngloAmerican megamachine because it is global and because our culture can’t survive without it.
We are stuck like my friend is stuck, pretending liberalism as a way of promoting our moral virtue, as a way of defending our own self-worth and sanity, while we become more fascist and violent because we don’t matter anymore. Those who have commandeered the megamachine, believing they are divine kings, imagine themselves as the zenith of evolutionary biology—an imagining that is buttressed and promoted by the MSM narrative generators. As they accelerate the planetary biocide and centralize their power and profits, they accelerate the end of their own world.
They are not aware that they do not matter anymore, either—
The genocide survivor who committed genocide proudly—a perfect example of the collapse of AngloAmerican culture and end of a world. Like my friend, she had no clue she was fascist and did not know her enemy is the megamachine that cares as much about Jews as it does Palestinians. Dehumanization is what it does best; and that's why we don't matter anymore.
