The death of Charlie Kirk stands as a dark day in American history. I always respected him, even though I wouldn’t call myself a huge fan of his content, since I don’t follow political pundit content. He was clearly a noble and moral man, and I know people in his sphere who say that he was an incredibly capable leader and organizer. He did more good for the Right than almost anyone else his age. Let this be a lesson to all of you to appreciate people more when they’re still living and not wait to see their absence to see their role. It’s easy to say the peaceful words at their death and harder to truly live a virtuous life, which is what Charlie would have wanted.

This will make things a lot worse. The Left’s response to the murder of a moderate who tried to stabilize things shows how evil they truly are. Even the mainstream like Hasan or Destiny responded positively to his death. They want everyone who’s not a homosexual transdimensional third wave corporate Marxist dead. We have to plan accordingly. Meanwhile there is no incentive on the Right for moderates now. However, what is true is true and what is evil is evil and we must hold the iron bar. No matter how bad things get we will hold the line against the crashing waves of madness and evil. We cannot let the Right succumb to evil. Things are going to get worse and more violent from here since there’s no reason to be moral. The flood gates are opening.

Final thoughts. Please do whatever you can to show respect for the dead man. The best way to remember him is to carry on his legacy so that the Right does not become worse in his absence. I’m still here for you although, I need to be more careful from now on. If Charlie can go, so can I. However, this is the fallen Earth which God has given us to test ourselves against. We can’t turn it down but we need to embrace it.
Sincerely, Rudyard William Lynch

If you mix the genetics of say a European and an East Asian are they genetically closer to those distinct populations or do they form a genetic composite closer to the aggregation of those two racial groups like a Central Asian, for example a Kazakh or Uzbek? Please only answer this if you understand genetics. I know this may vary by certain genetics metrics

New rule:
If a rapper or a hot girl would be allowed to get away with a certain social behavior, so should I as a white man.

People have a tendency to spiral into “nihilistic psychoanalyzing.” This tends to completely occupy people’s mental frames about to how to deal with other humans, which is a huge aspect of everyone’s life. What I mean by that is when you say something they don’t want to hear they immediately try to figure out how it’s a reflection of your own psychological inadequacies, always through some pseudo-Freudian frame which sees all psychology or human nature in terms of medicalizing mental illness. The worst part of this is we’ve thrown away literally every other frame for human nature already, so we only understand others through Freudian terms.

There’s a few issues with this. Firstly, there’s no reboot mechanism for reality. There’s no appeal to “I’m angry because society is actually collapsing and we’re all going to fucking die if we don’t fix this.” It gets stuck in entirely solipsistic mental loops of “I feel this which makes me feel this.” There’s no mechanism for “shut up you idiot. You are wrong.” Freudianism has no input basis for society and views psychology as purely individual. It wants you to be sociable and accept the regime, but what if you do want that? It views opposition to the social structure as a form of mental illness but at the same time it’s very spotty with what it medicalizes. I believe degeneracy, totalitarianism and self loathing are mental illnesses, but the regime subsidizes those on a social basis so what we consider to be a mental illness is fairly arbitrary. There’s also no understanding how mental health is an extension of human life itself, driven off the structure of society. For 99% of humans in history therapy was called religion and religion worked a lot better statistically. We don’t examine this at all, boxing mental health in a personal bracket.

Secondly, Freudianism doesn’t want to fix you. I’ve done multiple types of therapy and normal therapy is terrible since there’s no mechanism to heal you. The therapist just enables your worst traits without criticism. EMDR therapy works since you have targets for certain neuroses you end with each session. I can’t recommend EMDR highly enough and it’s the only form of therapy the veteran’s association says heals PTSD. Freudianism has literally no structure to fix or heal you and views the world entirely negatively. It sees all structure or discipline as oppression. In the Jungian tradition you’re moving upwards towards the divine or individuality. Freudians can’t see the inverse of mental illness, or psychological health. The only way you get attention is to have a mental illness, so people say they have mental illnesses so others listen to them. I don’t like medicalizing the human condition. People just want to shove others into the “narcissist” or “bipolar” or “repressed” box and then stop thinking at all about the human condition. It’s also crazy when people medicalize those superior to them saying historic figures or great men are repressed, which is obviously cope.

This means they collapse into nihilistic cycles with no way to find goodness psychologically. They look for mental illnesses in others without the ability to see anything else psychologically. Also, most people really suck at psychoanalyzing. They’re stuck in the Freudian tradition of just blaming your parents or saying you’re repressed. They don’t see the human condition as holistic, stemming from all elements of your life whether your life circumstances, personality, demographics or mindset. They're not seeing the person they're dealing with as a human with a story, rather they try to shove them into a negative box so they don't have to think anymore.

The true understanding of psychology would unlock an incredible historic innovation which would fix our society and our own broken souls. However, as of now psychology is used as a mental box to avoid thinking about real life or the complexity or being a human. It’s a form of anti thinking.

I dislike how everyone’s views are completely informed by their historic context. People believe the things they do since they grew up in a modernist society which trained them to be philosophically materialist, not believe in the divine, to believe in equality or the blank slate etc…. Right wingers see Muslims as innately primitive since many are today, but they don’t see how for centuries Islam was more advanced than the West. If I know a Leftist’s opinions, I know they were dictated by some cynical Marxist 70 years ago in order to get power as quickly as possible. Most educated professors can’t explain even how a rural conservative sees the world, let alone an African or Indian. We have no clue how the immigrants into our countries think or what they care about.

If you know someone’s algorithm, you know their thoughts on everything but they still expect you to see them as a rational free thinker. They think being trans is reasonable but think believing alchemy or the spiritual is ridiculous. They think the Bible is rational but the Koran is evil since they were born in a Christian nation. They don’t see believing equality is as ridiculous as the elixir of immortality, but both are equally untrue in being false. People think rationality and science are the only lenses to understand the world since they were told to believe that, but they can’t explain why themselves. No one can explain why or how they believe what the things they do. I’ve tested this and even the highest ranks of academia don’t understand these things. We’re so stupid as a culture.

People don’t actually understand or care how others see the world. Almost no thinkers can take themselves outside of their social group and era of history. They don’t process that 99% of the human race sees things totally different from them. They can’t step away from how their context tells them to see the world. You may say this standard is unreasonable. Firstly I don’t care. Secondly, it totally is since educated people over Western history could answer these questions for millennia. What do you think Plato or Aristotle were doing? If we can’t answer these questions our culture will die since we need to restructure our entire frame of reality to survive as the current one leads us to suicide.

PS: Most of you reading the comments are falling into the trap I’m saying here. You’re saying why ____ think I said is advantageous for you to believe in this context. You can just say that openly. You don’t have to externalize the entire world through this moment of history.
