Observing the riots all across the world we can see that a majority of the people lost something primordial to them, something which is crouching and in hiding within every man who is worth his salt. The potential for Aristocratic conduct. When I speak of this I do not mean the snobbish behavior of nobles in the early Age of Discovery, instead I mean the Aristocratic conduct of the Philistine, The Farmer, The Hunter, The Blacksmith, The Barber & The Prison guard.
How do any of these represent the Aristocracy? Junger tells us that the very core of Nobility is an unwritten guarantee. Their castles, physical or otherwise, offer refuge and safeguard the villager, the commoner, from demons & monsters lurking outside the sturdy walls of the City. So too a regular man can kindle the flame of his Noble soul and do as such in day to day life. This we do not see in the Riots of June, 2020. There is no offer of refuge, help, bread; or if there was, such as the case with the homeless man whose loss of a mattress was compensated with a whole tent; they are overlooked and pushed aside. Kindness quells bloodthirst in a way which is unconditionally good. In this man must sacrifice a half of his being, the evil within, in order to bring about good. This satisfaction is much less dopaminergic and thus less attractive. The dichotomy of modern day is simple: Aristocracy or Dopamine.

"Blessed are they who make it all the way to the bottom! Human nothingness is not a gift given from the outside, but a real state which must only be met. To the understanding of this nothingness lies the path of unflattering criticism of oneself. Who does this - comes to the realization of their own threefold nothingness: Nothingness in terms of knowledge, nothingness in terms of righteousness and goodness, and nothingness in terms of deeds."
