THE OCCULT LEFT
Imagine a mobile army of metaphors, rhetorical concepts, symbols and stratagems (invocations of privilege, assertions of victimhood, smears, etc) available to legitimate grudges, channel private resentments, initiate conflicts or pursue private agendas. In flat, or insecure social ecologies, like social media or college campuses, it thrives, whereas in strictly differentiated systems, it is practically unknown. As conflict proliferates, its power increases, which generates further conflict, until there is nothing but conflict, at which point it devours itself.
This is the Left, a distinct occult entity, or egregore invoked to focus and camouflage an individual’s desire for power, or status, or sex, but whose own power is augmented the more frequently it is summoned. Ultimately it is the Left which wields power, not individual Leftists: they summon the Left to feel powerful, but this power remains with the Left.
The contemporary status quo of Left hegemony, obvious to every non-Leftist, is invisible to individual Leftists on the basis of their own personal weakness. “How can the Left be in power when I am a loser?” But this is precisely the Leftist equation. The egregore is strong, insofar as individual members are weak, and they must remain weak (spiritually, intellectually, physically, morally...) for the Left to continue to dominate them. They must be weakened…
The managers of the Left are not themselves Leftists, or at least not fanatics, but more-or-less cynical realists, like the more-or-less generic curators who stock every contemporary art museum, or the corrupt politicians who fill the toy parliaments of Western democracies. They go with the flow, until they go down with the ship.
The simplest way to control people is to keep them disorientated. It isn’t a question of asking them to believe things which aren’t true, but of confusing them to the point where they can’t even grasp the idea of truth. Accordingly anything, or anyone, with potential to clear the mind, or to strengthen the will, of individual Leftists, and thus potentially provoke their defection, will be smeared, and anything (or anyone) that reinforces their confusion and slavishness will be praised. Physical exercise, yoga, and family formation (or maintaining non-Left connections) are strongly discouraged, while drug abuse, prostitution, etc are encouraged. Insane lunatics or spineless careerists are praised as important thinkers and artists or experts, while apostates and anti-cult critics are cancelled, as a spectacle of deterrence, to disincentivize other Leftists from getting any ideas.
None of this is personal. Police actions are undertaken not by individual Leftists, but by the Left egregore itself, operating through its members, whom it psychologically controls. The aggression channeled outwards at defectors in fact emanates from the dissonance between the individual Leftist, and the egregore, and serves to discharge the psychic tension of the symbiosis. In some cases, control of the Left has advanced to the point that there is nothing else left, personality-wise, and nobody home. Know them from their lifeless stare.
The Left identifies everything which it menaces as the Right, or even the far right, or similar labels, this includes wolves, books, the sun, Israel, history, men, white people, law enforcement, biology, thinking, non-compliant minorities, independent-minded women, Trump, their parents, physics, etc; fundamentally, anything which appears to resist it, or which seems vulnerable to ideological capture. Nonetheless not everything traveling under the name Right is its enemy, just as not everyone who claims to belong to the Left is necessarily on board with its program. Many people who believe they are Leftists blissfully do not understand what it is, others understand clearly and are operating under ideological cover.
From the other side of the aisle, the Left seeks to emphasize a repulsive and frightening Right, in its own mirror image, and receives help in this enterprise from deranged individuals who “put on the monster costume” for reasons connected to their own disordered drives, thereby becoming the clowns of the Left, and grist for Left propaganda. But the Left works to characterize all its enemies this way.
From the point of view of the true Right, the enemy is the Left itself, the egregore, and not its servitors. In fact, the idea is to free Leftists from their self-incurred servitude. This operation, however, involves considerable delicacy, as Left psycho-colonization short-circuits libidinal and rational drives. Ultimately, what is required is replacing a misshapen conceptual lexicon held together with random emotional impulses and paranoid fantasies with a functional personality that enables autonomous thought.
The axiom of the Left, in line with its entropic mission, is no enemies to the Left. The Left creates conflict endlessly, and there is no conflict it does not appreciate. The true Right, the cosmic right, consisting of the sum of the spiritual forces which effectively, and not only rhetorically, oppose the Left, responds with a commitment to peace, on the only realistic terms possible, via a movement of exodus which leads out from the chaos of Egypt, though the Sinai of reality, to the promised land of true knowledge.
In the first move a scalar direction is broken into political principles; in the second ethical principles, in the third metaphysical principles. The aim is to advance vertically, not just horizontally; hence the Right is perpetually purifying itself.
The Right cannot organize like the Left, through propaganda, cowardice and greed, but only through higher values and discipline. A purely ideological opposition, amounting to opposing one egregore to another, e.g. National Socialism, merely accelerates the Leftist movement with the addition of an alternating current: thus today e.g. “Bioleninism” is opposed to “Systemic racism” but the structural role of these terms is identical: “we wuz hierarchy.” But the real meaning of hierarchy is not a naturalist/materialist dominance hierarchy, but a hierarchy of principles, which material nature does not recognize, and which these men do not show.
The Right should relieve itself of its moral confusion. Modernity is an age in which the feminine “substantial” pole gains supremacy over the masculine “formal” pole, but the result of this breakdown is not the supremacy of women, but the collapse of both poles into an indeterminate, impotent and caricatured sexuality. The aim is to restore the high tension of masculine and feminine principles, as opposed to endorsing a world view composed of commodified sexual units. Crass misogyny in response to sad anti-masculine feminism is regressive and juvenile. Boys compare themselves to girls; but men oppose themselves to boys, and have more important things to discuss than their sexual problems.
Similarly, anonymous performative racism, signaling non-compliance to the official ideology and/or personal trauma, at the same betrays a disinclination to grasp anti-racism’s political logic. The Left, fundamentally, is not anti-racist, but technocratic, and anti-autonomous, in line with a project of homogenizing all people and cultures into a self-hating, gelatinous consumerist biomass, and it is only effectively opposed on this basis. Inquisitors are not promoted because they are black, or represent blacks, but because they are absolute idiots, who insult human dignity, especially of blacks, as Malcom X observed. In fact, there is no word more insulting than BIPOC.
Against the Left, which pursues the flattening relativization of principles in the cause of materialism hedonism, opportunism, and nihilism, and ultimately Sadism, the Right asserts the truth of the supremely normative: there is one truth, or set of higher values governing how one should live, and these values must not only be theoretically known, but actively practiced. It is not a question of imposing anything on anyone, except oneself. The true Right is composed of men of virtue, not cartoons with high IQs. Instead of embodying the spiritually crippling effects of our epoch, we should celebrate the spiritual greatness of Man at his highest - and attain it.
