World wars were fought over different ideologies, so it's ridiculous to say that ideology has no effect, no power to influence people or even determine their positions. Much of dissident conflict is based on ideology, as is the divide of Atlanticism and Eurasianism. For the East liberal ideology is seen as a power which threatens the integrity of entire spaces, even the whole. Such power is like that of radiation which can ruin regions, zones, then entire nations. Such a power is greater than the old nations, or at least impedes their possible return for the time being.
There is no real divide between ideas and action, and significantly it is ideology that combines ideas and action, forges it into a scientific system of political power. This is why it is so powerful, along with the economy and technology it forms a superstructure or synthetic construction of the nation-states and great spaces. From a modern war standpoint nine-tenths of war takes place in this region, and not on the battlefield. What this means is that ideology is not only the erosion after war - what the violent eruption can decide on the battlefield - but also the tremors beforehand.
We see this also in art and psychology. Who can say that the great movements had any less effect than the world wars? Much of the defeat of Germany occurred in the interwar period, in the occupation, through the shift of a national superstructure to that of a global superstructure. The ideological battles, and the clashes of intelligence agencies, were central to this defeat. There are spheres of influence and neutralisations, and ideology serves as something of a rearmament during the shifts of spatial power.
The news cycle itself is ideological, it is a scientific and egalitarian distribution of information. As communication of the general will the citizens remain in constant contact with world events, government procedures, and potential dangers. This type of organisation develops not out of hierarchical power, an elite method of control, but due to the specific type of man and his political means of communication. Decisions or actions resulting from the news may be small but they are constant. There may be no better image of erosion and progress, every day the old information with its events and dangers disappears and a new series of information takes place. The nomos makes constant and secure changes apart from any sole figure, and any group that might betray the law of equality.
If any group threatens this communication system it is militaristic, the criminal underground of the state. Elites are not opposed to the news cycle, nor do they exist outside it, if anything they are simply the greatest representatives of a humanitarian system. Their status derives from this quality, and not from power in the classical sense.

Some notes on my recent article "Ideology vs Worldview" by Wald. https://futurismforever.com/2022/09/11/a-response-to-gios-ideology-vs-worldview-article-by-wald/
Cujus regio ejus religio.
Cujus regio ejus natio.
Cujus regio ejus oeconomica.
Cujus regio ejus ideologica.
Cujus regio ejus praeco.
"He who rules decides..."
These few axioms give an idea of the extent of decision in various states. In spatial terms the power of decision is much greater in the ordering of religion than in ideology; the ground of the nation has a destructive capacity and range of conflict that is not possible with the news. At the same time, the news relates to the nation in a way that myth, theology, literature, and art cannot. "Only a newspaper can deposit the same thought in a thousand minds at once." And only a myth can impose an absolute moment of mystery in a thousand minds, make a thousand ideas pregnant with meaning at once.
In war the strength of decision and capacity for mobilisation is raised to the highest. All of the violence, on and off the battlefield, erupts to face the immediate, the incursion into sovereignty by an enemy and a third, neutralising territory. War is a national reversal in life just as tragedy is in death. Only myth, with its onrushing meaning and metamorphoses can explain this – the danger of a third territory and death of a nation.
The news can only refer defeat, as in the world wars when the newspapers became overwhelmed with obituaries. Such frequency of death, a war that can never end, can never have anything like the recitation of a Catalogue of Ships. The Unknown Soldier is an Achilles in the underworld, and cannot be visited by an Odysseus.
Here one may begin to see why nationalists, just like the post-nationalists, cannot think the myth of war – only news or professional wrestling are capable of communicating his relation to war. Xenophon describes a dance of soldiers, the carpaea, with one side playing the part of farmers and the other the barbarians. "A man is sowing and driving a yoke of oxen, his arms laid at one side, and he turns about frequently as one in fear; a robber approaches; as soon as the sower sees him coming, he snatches up his arms, goes to meet him, and fights with him to save his oxen." The readiness of the farmer for war is mixed up in the aesthetics of the dance in a dionysian, or empedoclean, way. With his weapons ready-to-hand the farmer can immediately become a warrior, just as the warriors performing the dance use it as a secondary type of training and drilling. Or perhaps it is the primary training. The noscripted and fake fighting of professional wrestlers is ideal because they represent figures for whom true struggle is never possible, for whom war is little more than entertainment, the relaying of events in the backyards of Turkey. It is something even less than the news, a dance of death for those who think they will never have to face it.

Dystopia
One can no more lift himself out of dystopia than he can think himself out of it. In "The Machine Stops" the people are emaciated and can barely lift anything. But it would make no difference if they could, it would only add a comedic character to technological neutralisation. That strong men submit is the greatest symbol of nihilism.
This is not to accept defeat, to fall into pessimism or weakened vitality. Rather, it is to accept, like Odysseus, that there are times when one must accept his metamorphosis into a beggar. One must experience the whole of the period of transition from wealth to poverty if any return is possible – as in death.

Pure force is essential to the great man, yet where he fails, where he presses on to a less than tragic defeat, there is an incapacity for introspection. This is what divides the great man from the hero, the inability to turn away. What separates Achilles from all the other heroes is the total force with which he turns away, his meditation on life and fate is equal to all the other battles. Combined with the immediacy of decision, it is greater.

The British can’t even carry locking or fixed blade knives without “good reason”. Their legal code has no understanding that a weapon can be defensive. Totally a conquered people. Of course non-white violence seems to be sky rocketing.
Hoplophobia, the fear of weapons, is widespread now. But this is not only due to the weakening of man, the American sense of the right to bear arms requires something like an anarchic state, a willingness of every man to kill. Without this the will becomes merely a private concern. The number of weapons is less significant than the will to wield them decisively and with force.
There is also a sense that today, after the will to law ends, much more powerful weapons have taken the place of the old weapons of self-defense and a violent upholding of justice – which are also more concealed. No one sees hydrogen bombs, but they are an ever-present and infinitely more destructive threat.

According to FG Jünger the centaur originally had the body of a bull rather than a horse. This would make the centaur and minotaur counterparts; the titanic and olympian reversal of man is seen in them. Otherwise their metamorphosis may be seen as the agony of primordial and animal creation, the metamorphosis, or figure-shift of man. This preceded the Love and Strife of Empedocles.
Where the animal forces take over the head of man he becomes a hidden figure, waiting to appear in the labyrinth – a destroyer of fate. His hide and brutal features replace the nobility of the centaurs head, but he does not take on a human body, he is the offspring of woman and beast – he is mechanical, beyond creative life just like them. In this sense the Minotaur only stands upright like the giants, with whom he shares a genealogy. It is remarkable that he defends the architecture of Daedalus and Icarus, who construct the very center of the technological world, Minos. It is the modern world that attempts to give this figure a sense of refinement, or simple ease within infinite movement. He appears gazing over his city, at peace – the forces become self-destroying.

The Minotaur is a figure born of woman and a metal-ribbed bull, much like the mechanical giant Talos. Another related figure is Perdix, who surpasses Daedalus in technical mastery, is pushed off a tower by him and saved by Athena – turned into a partridge, the simplest of ground birds. It is significant that in the technological myth there are extremes of brutality and open spaces, the labyrinth and the void. In this we see that the rational and irrational may be wrapped up in a single form, that the dionysian can give rise to the apollonian, the titanic the olympian. Oftentimes a mythic figure achieves its true form only through the agony of struggle with its opponent – one overwhelms the other and even surpasses its dominion. Zeus becomes the god of time and metaphophosis through his contests, just as the giants are enslaved to the creation of mechanised monsters and automatons. The mechanical world is revealed as the master of the irrational, as seen in Talos, the Minotaur, and the great Briareus Archimedes, who horrified the Romans with his gigantic war machines.
The portal can be a gate to the heavens or the underworld. It appears fantastically at times, or is constructed through the gift of the intellect. In Pasiphaë, who mates with the Cretan Bull, creation and technical force are united in the utmost devastation. An irrational will and a rational intellect form the whole shape of the portal – the will is simply hidden, less known. The Cretan Bull is snow-white, related to the Trick of Mecone and also the ancient practise of covering faces in gypsum as a symbol of the titans; the labyrinth is an underworld of such meetings. Those who renounce their oath to sacrifice will find only the reversal of laws.

This project is intended for political philosophy, history, and attempts to improve my writing. In a sense, to make my writing more 'accessible' without descending into memes. My background is in mythology, and my natural style is irrational, incomprehensible, or schizo. Occasionally I will make posts in this style which may not make sense, but ultimately I hope to find people to discuss these ideas with so I will post them occasionally.

Speculative Nationalism
An absolute loss of identity can only result in reformation through faith or an attempt to correlate identity with a series of symbols, reasons, and instincts. Although it is rare that we see even this much from the national conservatives. They accumulate data of events, historicise the nations on liberal grounds, beg to have their rights back, demand irrationalist credentials for the Neo-Cathedral, and regurgitate the news. They will "Clear them out" on twitter just like the twitter moderates they hate, and be defeated at their own game by moderation. "At least we aren't speaking leftist" is their motto, and they develop impeccable systems as to how they are not and can never be leftists, all while on the systems developed and ruled by leftists. "There is a nation, and we can think about it." This is the limit of their thinking – like a dog that returns to its vomit.

"To divide the flesh from the spirit is blasphemy against God."
The distinction between idea and action disappears when we consider language. For language is both idea and action – in its highest expression it harmonizes with the absolute, unbound by a god. In the same way, beauty forms both perfection and freedom; the spirit governs mind and body; sacrifice unites festival and ritual, without which there is a fracturing into art.
Absolute physicalism can only be read as an anti-myth. As a system completely liberated of paradox and contradiction it is closer to ideology and the technical sciences – it does away with the struggles of life, infinity, and replaces them with a supreme tribunal, a blasphemous certainty. This is the parliament of biology, what is really the spatial revolution of the mind which takes over the body like a cancer. In its singular focus, it appears as Euripides' Cyclops, "Where's nobody?"
Today we no longer have abstract reason but an abstract and cyclopic information. This is clear in the complete trampling of the real world by the digital. No doubt this will create for some a condition like that of Nietzsche's will to return to the poets, to great action! But our world is different, we already have a world of monstrous action, it is the neurosis of the democratic man. "We're an empire now, and when we act, we create our own reality. And while you're studying that reality - judiciously, as you will - we'll act again, creating other new realities."
This will appear to many as proof of an elitism, of a great power that contradicts sentiments of the general will. But this is precisely the democratic man, a new species with a taxonomy of action – technology is his language. As Tocqueville so brilliantly reveals, it is the democratic man who must increase action, organisation, and communication to an absolute, this is precisely for conditions of equality and the will of a new man. By contrast, the aristocratic man is able to generate great force effortlessly, without an excess of communication or action. this is not simply because of an austerity of words, but the martial-like repetition which gives ideas wealth and power. Such language is action in its essence. Movement erupts like a storm, and returns with equal force to calm.
The neurosis of action is the sickness of democracy, just as philosophy is the hospital of poets. It is not at all removed from abstract reason, from technical and telluric language – just as the Cretan Bull and Pasiphäe are the parents of the Minotaur. Our question should be of an absolute rather than monstrous language. There is no escaping reason or ideas, the attempt to subsume the metaphysical realm through elimination is the same process as revaluing theology through economic systems.
One might say the same for imposing upon nations foreign gods, and especially god-concepts. "Silete theologi in munere alieno!" (Theologians should remain silent within foreign walls!) A lesson that should be dogma for nationalists. If there is a national language then the gods are its absolute law, wholly unique, forming the nation into a world all its own.

What is the true engine of history—ideas, or men? In this article, I use the Odinic-Tyrrhic framework to answer this question.
Thus does the Odinic-Tyrrhic framework contain and synthesize the positions of “ideals before action” and “actions before ideals”.…

Body nihilists claim liberalism is responsible for the weakening of men, but it was a body nihilist and eugenicist who introduced soy, veganism, and the unhealthiest and most disgusting food in history.
Industrial food poisoning is a technical and theological problem, it has to do with the being of modern man, his existential character. It's not ideological, and not something to be wholly blamed on the left.

The Wild Story Of John Harvey Kellogg, The Eccentric Wellness Guru Who Invented Corn Flakes
Dr. John Harvey Kellogg held some horrific ideas about race — and believed that a bland diet could prevent masturbation in children.
Our situation is not at all the same as Nietzsche and the romanticists. He was responding to the technological age, the coming titans; his demand was an aesthetics of armament. Now we are in the age of technological dissolution and must fight, whether armed or not.
There have been many responses to the Enlightenment, including heirs who turned against it. The Analytics and Counter-analytics are equally distant from the Enlightenment. Today the academies have been repurposed as technical institutes and industries, everywhere else man is ruled by instinct, habit, and sentiment. The technicians all deploy emotive forces as demagoguery and tyranny, as do the corporatists and party politicians. In the appeals to refugees, the poor, the new races of economy there is no reason at all – base sentiments have replaced ideology. Nor is this a question of machiavellian power, one sees how the elites are subject to the same forces of dissolution and impoverishment. Mass centralisation of the economy is a sign of this.
Irrationalism has overtaken rationalism in every space, and reason is impossible. One who attempts reason, whether abstract or intuitive, will appear as an anachronism and be overrun by the gigantic forces of information. The only reason is that of brutal fanaticism and political neutralisation – anti-reason.
Because of this it is essential today that we reintroduce reason, without it there can be neither poetry nor art. Culture freed of reason acts as the great continental fire which devours everything at the moment of its creation. A landscape of generalised lunacy has nothing to do with reason. At most it can only be a failure to live up to the demands of an absolute reason, but this is itself a misunderstanding.

"I don't agree with the assessment that Russia has already lost the war because they didn't sweep through with a victorious Blitzkrieg. It's possible for it to reach the point where it would become a Pyrrhic victory for Russia to topple the Zelensky regime, but I don't see it as near that point at all. For that to happen, the NATO involvement would have to escalate to the point where it is no longer just a proxy war."

I don't think there can be any doubt that what America wants is for Russia to push so that another front can be opened up on the world stage. Otherwise, a mistake would serve the same function. The aggressive and reckless actions are precisely for this reason (and of course Ukrainians are just pawns to NATO). "Appear strong when you are weak." Given this, a real sign that Russia has been weakened would be the opening of another front. Iran has been fermenting for a long time now, that it or another location has not been attacked indicates that America/NATO has not achieved its aims in Ukraine. As well, if there were another attack in a new region at this point an extreme degree may indicate desperation.
As Schmitt said, the American law of war is neutrality in principle and presence in practise. This is intensified to the highest degree in this war, which is without quesyion a world war. It will continue until a new spatial order is established – either the Leviathan or Behemoth will perish.
The other aspect is nuclear deterrent. In the propaganda there is a gigantic force which criminalizes Russia, even as America conducts nuclear testing. But seen from the East, the Leviathan is wounded and presents the danger of all wounded creatures – one does not want to be smothered and choked by the tentacles on the way down. Russia could face nuclear assault itself if mounted a full attack.
In both cases, Parthian retreat is an essential tactic and strategy. And this tactic is fundamental, absolute in the atomic era of war – jets dominate the skies, submarines the seas, and nuclear weapons are hidden beneath the earth itself. They are submerged in the potential ruins like the old kings buried in the foundations of cities. This is the meaning of Dead Hand – one can still move from a position of total defeat. The nuclear defense is a response to absolute criminality and surrender in international law, and it changes warfare immeasurably.

Baubo (Ancient Greek: Βαυβώ) is an old woman in Greek mythology which appears particularly in the myths of the early Orphic religion. Known as the goddess of mirth, she is depicted as bawdy and sexually liberated, and is said to have jested with Demeter when that god was mourning the loss of her daughter, Persephone.
"Baubo, having received Demeter as a guest, offers her a draught of wine and meal. She declines to take it, being unwilling to drink on account of her mourning. Baubo is deeply hurt, thinking she has been slighted, and thereupon uncovers her secret parts and exhibits them to the goddess. Demeter is pleased at the sight, and now at least receives the draught, — delighted by the spectacle! These are the secret mysteries of the Athenians! These are also the subjects of Orpheus’ poems. I will quote you the very lines of Orpheus, in order that you may have the originator of the mysteries as witness of their shamelessness: “This said, she drew aside her robes, and showed a sight of shame; child Iacchus was there, and laughing, plunged his hand below her breasts. Then smiled the goddess, in her heart she smiled, and drank the draught from out the glancing cup.”"
