Commentary from Aleksandr Dugin being interviewed by youtube canceled Glenn Diesen. Dugin's daughter was murdered/assassinated. Someone said the most powerful weapon the oppressor has against the oppressed is the mind of the oppressed. We need to find ways to remove the harmful programming of the post modernists/architects of technocracy and replace it with something wholesome and life affirming. As someone living in the West, I argue it needs to be Roman Catholicism here since that is a tradition that is universal, is the foundation of the institutions of The West and provides the best spiritual defense if enough of us use it collectively. If you live in the East, then it needs to be Orthodox Christian, imo. Anyhow, leaving that discussion to the side, you might find it worthwhile to consider the perspective of Dugin. https://rumble.com/v5gafgt-crisis-of-modernity-and-liberalism-and-eurasianism-as-the-solution-aleksand.html

Thanks for the leads, I will check into McGilchist. Desmet and Kingsnorth both describe important parts of what we face, but I know at last for Desmet, he seems naive to the fact that there are those who push these ideologies on purpose to make us easier to dominate. I think E Michael Jones, who will never be published in First Things, has a better handle on it. I stumbled on this reality in the peace movement b/c I was foolish enough to think that Palestinians are just as important as other human beings. Crazy idea, I know.

I always thought Desmet seemed to have read and internalized Elias Canetti.

Thank you for sharing this perspective. I am not as into the brain physiology stuff, but I 100% agree that we leave ourselves open to enslavement if we do not submit to God and learn to live for others. Still, Desmet often sounds like there are no actual predators seeking to enslave. I did not read his book, though I may have a copy. I should read it. Actually, I did read it now that I think of it. But who did he say were the ones seeking to enslave us? Those behind the COVID operation? Porn? Endless war? Full spectrum surveillance? I only saw that chalked up to some diffuse anxiety leading to, apparently, spontaneous mass psychosis...

Agree with you on most fronts except the submit to God thing Aimee.

It's a fundamental trick in its' comfort, and theologies to compliment faith only become destructive in the long run.

You are a good HUman ..that is redemption enough and needs no formulaic Gods.

I am not convinced you are informed enough to guide my studies. It seems you are completely ignorant about Jewish supremacy in Israel. Is the ADL a force for good? Was Leo Frank innocent? Was Tony Martin a Jew hater or an honest historian persecuted for not letting the ADL tell him what he could and couldn't teach in his on class? You are either ignorant or an active deceiver. If it is the former, I recommend you look into the works of E Michael Jones, Tony Martin, Illan Pape, Allison Weir, Gilad Atzmon, Stephen Sizer, Salman Abu Sitta, Mazin Qumsiyeh, Benjamin Ginsberg's "Fatal Embrace" and Mersheimer and Walt's book on the Israel Lobby for a start.

Ok, then I suggest you look into the objective history of the conflict and explain how the Palestinians got the US congress to give more than 50 standing ovations and billions of dollars in arms to Netanyahu for imprisoning, starving and bombing millions of people. Palestinians are not protesting for the right to rape detainees/hostages, Israeli Jews are. Christian Zionism is a Satanic heresy. It is the followers of Christ who are the new Israel, not some land grabbing movement carried out by rejectors of Christ. It is not anti-Semitic to recognize this. And if you love Israelis, as we are commanded to do, you will no longer wish for them to be used as a weapon for conquest and subjugation. Anyone who cares for the souls of Jews knows the world must stand against such sickness. (You wouldn't happen to be posting from a unit 8200 cubicle in Israel, would you?) After many years of research, I have found it is clear that this is not a complex subject, rather it is a complicated subject. Powerful forces have gone to a lot of trouble to complicate a clear cut case of ethnic cleansing and genocide as self-defense. Cut through the propaganda, and it is clear as day. And I urge you to get it right because we are commanded to not bear false witness. Christ called us to be innocent as doves, but as is as serpents. I suggest you research a little more. Maybe start with learning about the Tantura Massacre: https://youtu.be/HNtrUjUNkJw

Did you watch the Tantura documentary? How do you answer its findings? Jesus Christ was a Jew, as was the Virgin Mary, the twelve apostles and the family of the man born blind who would not speak of his miraculous healing "for fear of the Jews." The Jews, as in the dominant community, killed Jesus Christ. Jesus Christ said that He brought a new covenant and there was no longer Jew or gentile, man or woman. He offered salvation to all. It is called suprsessionism. Ever heard of that? Or do you use a heresy filled Scofield Reference Bible?

"Unprovoked attack" on Oct. 7th? 7+ decades of occupation, creation of 3/4 of a million refugees in 1948 alone, thousands of prisoners, massacres, killing children with sniper fire, systemic sexual torture in Israeli dungeons, and the list goes on. And even still, Israel killed many of its own on Oct 7 due to the Hannibal Directive and there is yet to be found any evidence of Hamas sexual assaults or babies in ovens. NYT had to retract that claim. The US and Israeli govts have a bit of a bad track record for lying to get their wars on. Remember the MD in Iraq? Or the false story about Iraqi soldiers tossing Kuwaiti babies out of incubators? I remind you again, Christ warned us to be innocent as doves and wise as serpents. If you are not a paid Israeli troll or an IDF conscript fulfilling your military service in unit 8200, then I can't guess how you can be so oblivious to war propaganda. Hard to believe you are posting in good faith. Anon posters often are not. But just in case you are sincere, you might want to check out this window into the Israeli mentality: https://youtu.be/fZlN2oCPhdY

Yes, I agree with his diagnosis, but I consider his choice to go with Orthodoxy despite being in the West to be a continuation of the error of Protestantism or schism b/c it is a failure to remedy the need for unity and humility even in the face of the imperfection of the Roman Catholic Church. (Turns out the Eastern Orthodox Churches have their own share of imperfection, surprise surprise. But still, he gets to do as he sees fit.) It is my hope that with enough faith and if God wills it, we can restore these two apostolic Churches to the health where they can re-unite.

Yes, and please help me be part of the sincere faithful remnant to pray and sacrifice to purify ourselves so that we can be a support in our local church such that we inspire greater faith and sincerity to support the authorities to stand up to evil and corruption within our leadership. If God wills it, it can be done. If not, we are still doing what we have been commanded to do and can serve as a support to the faith of others, so it is still the right thing, imo. St. Micheal, pray for us!

Thank you Celia. I share another from the Orthodox tradition. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BcbKoY7XpJE. A psalm of David

Have mercy upon me, O God, according to thy kindness:

According to the abundance of thy mercies, blot out my transgressions.

Wash me thorughly from mine iniquity, and cleanse me from my sin.

For I acknowledge my transgressions: and my sin is ever before me.

Against You, You only, have I sinned, and done what is evil in thy sight:

So that You are justified when You speak, And blameless when You judge.

Behold, I was brought forth in iniquity; and in sin did my mother conceive me.

Behold, You desire truth in the innermost being,

And in the hidden part You will make me know wisdom.

Have mercy upon me, O God, according to thy kindness:

According to the abundance of thy mercies, blot out my transgressions.

***

Music: Padre Seraphim Bit-Kharib

God bless you for posting. I found this when I was at a very dark place. I am now feeling better and I am less diminished by the evil that is my government and its supporters.

This Brother seems to hear a different incantation.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nzCleNhw80E&t=184s

Dear God, how do I take this darkness and turn it into light?

How do I believe in a concept where I speak to a man I've never seen with my eyes?

How do I know that religion wasn't made just to separate the world and create a great disguise

Just to keep us in these chains while the rich get richer, and the poor pray to you and perpetuate a lie?

How do I know this isn't some big joke?

Dear god, do you hear me?

I'm supposed to fear you, but you haven't said shit

So maybe it's you that actually fears me?

...........DAX "Dear God"
