"Closing of the American Mind" came out when I was in my late teens. I read it with no background at all in political theory. It completely changed my whole worldview and I read it at least a dozen times after that, and tried reading Nietzsche and Kant and other philosophers Bloom talks about. Highly highly recommend to absolutely everyone.
@@paulalynnhay I love Closing of the American Mind. I discovered it when I was about 20 and in college and it was written when I was like 1 year old. Great book I am always trying to get others to read. A great intro and entree into these topics.
I have never been convinced by this sort of Promethean hubris of indefinite progress. A strong cautionary note to all of this giddiness is to watch the classic 1956 science fiction film: Forbidden Planet.
For the ubermensch, Nature has primacy. Zarathustra has as his companions an eagle and a snake---not an iphone and a brain chip. The ubermensch has not conquered Nature---that's why I hate this notion of "superhuman". Maybe it's a linguistic issue, I'm not sure, but this notion of "superhuman" and "supernature" (or "supernatural) are all bogus---we don't know the fullness of Nature, nor the fullness of the human. And yet we posit something beyond the very mystery we are involved in? Remember, Nietzsche was explicit about focusing on this life in this world and not on any beyond. You can't get to this supposed "superhuman" through technology---that's only the path to abomination. If we are to discover more about the fullness of the human creature, that will only come through succumbing to the mysteries of Nature. As the witch tells Faust: "The lofty skill Of Science, still From all men deeply hidden! Who takes no thought, To him 'tis brought, 'Tis given unsought, unbidden!" I've read better translations but the point remains! All this rational striving via technology just takes you further away from your dream of progress through the paradoxical mysteries of Nature.
Thanks for mentioning Professor Lampert's last book The Beijing Lectures. The issue you highlight is crucial, in my opinion: As Strauss writes, "Nature, we may say, has become a problem owing to the fact that man is conquering nature and there are no assignable limits to that conquest." That problem-the problem of nature and the possibility of assigning limits to its conquest-is at the core of Lampert's reading of Nietzsche and modern philosophy.
I consider myself a Traditionalist, and you are absolutely right about the distinction between Traditionalists and Accelerationists I believe that the widespread promotion of the woke agenda and the continuous assault on traditional values have led to an unexpected recent shift where Traditionalists find common ground with Accelerationists, viewing them as a more acceptable alternative, as technology is unavoidable and it is a very important element. Transhumanism plays a significant role in both groups, but they approach it differently and have distinct goals. The left tends to view transhumanism as a controlled, centralized concept, while Accelerationists advocate for a more open-source approach. The New-Left sees transhumanism as the eradication of human beings and producing a new form of organism; it is clear that they are using transgenderism as a logical stepping stone toward a broader transhumanist agenda. While the Accelerationists tend to see transhumanism as an extension of human potential, pushing it to new heights, which aligns better with Traditionalist values. And lastly, the glorification of the Weak Feminized Man from the left has led Traditionalists (both male and female) to find common ground with the Accelerationists, which was previously not attainable. So, I believe Traditionalists find more common ground with Accelerationists. These two groups have worked together because they perceive they are fighting a very aggressive common ideological enemy, becoming more aggressive in each passing decade, and view the New-Left ideologies as threatening to personal values, everyday lives, and human potential, and have many intersecting points with one another, not just on pragmatic policies. It will be interesting, though, to see how these play out. I would be a proponent of merging the two Ideologies into something new and better, but we always need to find out what the future holds, as it is very challenging... What is clear, though, is that an Ideological war is now being played out in front of everyone, and that is something which everyone should follow and participate actively, especially the Traditionalist right.
This article is yet another one of the ten thousand examples of the fact that 90% of people who comment on Nietzsche, from whatever political view, not only fundamentally don't understand him but likely have never actually read him directly.
Def. read Dark Enlightenment by Nick Land it's a must read! Also, I think the road to the Ubermensch must be Metaphysical not just technological or biological.
Great points at 20:00 about the Trumpian big tent including both trads and tech bros. I spoke with Alexander Murshak and Paul Heron on this: ruclips.net/video/N4FIY2Izkoc/видео.html And on similar themes with Jon Askonas: ruclips.net/video/RHWhC2af4kc/видео.html
For Nick Land I am listening to an interview from Theory Underground which I heard about from Nina Powers Substack. I would not naturally gravitate to Nick Land but I will try to learn.
I think we as a civilization are on the cusp of something great. This nakedness we all feel may be a burden now but in a hundred or two hundred years it will be seen as the catalyst which sparked the next great age. Like the fall of Byzantium or the seven years war. Just keep working for tomorrow. You don’t need hope when you can find certainty in faith.
This is how real politics work - control over strategic resources that can generate technology, which translates into military power which translates into further control of resources. There is no capitalism without commodities. This is true for conservatives and for liberals. You guys would really benefit from having a deeper understanding of marxism and imperialism. Unless you anchor your political analysis in materialist theories of power, you really dont go anywhere. The video above is a great example of this and really shows why some many people on the right are so confused
True. - What we see in the West is the predominance of "Left Wing Idealism " of the ruling classes where "Morals" come from the barrel of the gun. - It is completely understandable that people ( " the Right" ) get outraged by the coercion this involves. However, they are in general completely unwilling to realize the inherent "progressivist" nature of capitalism that aims to subjugate all nature. And, that there exists no " state of nature" capitalism. But, only ever a version of it that they like to call "Corporatism" , to deflect blame from what they theologically believe would be the "ideal, god-given" order.
The last Nietzschean rejects who waited for the overman to show up at the Charlottesville rally ended up cornered by the Left defending a statue, never to be heard of again. How do you think they will end up this time?
I will pause the video at 11:57 and am thinking about archeofuturism as a pro-active leveling between acceleration and what René Guénon mentions as a chain of transmission from the Prima materia in hermetic wisdom. i.e., Archeo-futurism - both archaic and futuristic, for it validates the primordiality of epic values. If accelerationists do not harbor that thought there will be a conflict of interests.
Interesting that he mentions Jason Jorjani, I was wondering if Millerman was familiar with him. With his extremely broad scope and openness to information combined with a peculiar fanatisism, Jorjani seems a bit like Robert Anton Wilson in a nazi uniform to me, not that he likes nazis, especially not timelooping traditionalist spacenazis, and in any case he seem to be a great friend ti Israel. He seem to want to make Persia great again, and roots himself in the specific persian tradition which is paradoxically possibly the root of progressivism, and hence ultimately counter traditional, in Guenons sense. If there was a competition for the title of the worlds most dangerous philosopher, he could compete alongside Dugin an BAP perhaps. I would be highly interested in hearing a more in depth assessment of Jorjanis thinking by Millerman, he should be eminently equipped for it.
Young folks get Liberalism of the West mixed up with the current woke movement (of which the wave has already broken). Western freedom of thought and will is the only way to improve your problems. Strongmen and religious experts might keep order in other cultures but always bring down cultures in the West. Stay strong.
I know Nietzsche is mostly talking about thinking, or metaphysics, but I wouldn’t underestimate him. At times, when he says mankind is something to be overcome, he may mean genetically. It was the early days of evolutionary theory and Darwinism.
I’ve read ‘The Closing of the American Mind’. I still think, and it did have some controversy associated with it, the Title of the book was really the message. People were supposed to think back on it, ‘oh, that must be what he was talking about’. The American mind REALLY became open and awoke around 1993. We’re still living in the shadow of that, as, after a few years of sheer terror, our media-versities returned to hatred of whites and men, and the promotion encouragement and celebration of women and nonwhites. At some point, reverse psychology is no longer any sort of ‘psychology’ at all. It’s just hatred. There was a closing of the American mind,up to 1993, since then, the mind isn’t so much closed, as it is filled with characters who are basically not-sees.
imo, really not appreciated enough aspect of nietzsche is on what we are replacing god(s) with. to say that "thus spoke zarathustra" is about some guy who was walking back and forth is... truly something. if it's not nietszchien, it's pseudo philosophy for sure.
The article's view that Nick Land's superhumanity represents "Nietzsche minus naturalism" and is "distinctly technological and capitalist" misrepresents Nietzsche's concept of the overman. To be an exceptional human is to create. Nietzsche considers the act of creativity and "art" to be humanity's highest achievements. Unleashing our capacity to create is what the e/acc movement is all about. Capitalism is based on a zero-sum distribution of haves and have-nots operating in a Darwinist marketplace. What e/acc advocates are seeking is the release of capital from debt and non-productive assets like bonds, gold, bitcoin, and hard assets into productive systems that leverage our human creativity and potential to improve the world for all. It rejects wealth for wealth's sake and replaces ostentation with exponential expansion of the common good.
Like Dr. Millerman's friend Dugin, I'm deeply suspicious of AI and transhumanism. I don't mind technology,its the web that made the Dissident right into a force, but my Christianity makes me suspicious of this Techno-Utopian stuff.
We should all be more than suspicious. They want to eradicate humanity. They think we're just machines and they want to try to erase that special intangible part that they can't measure. Everything to them is measurement and calculation. They can't stand the powerful mystery of Nature.
I'm probably fairly on the right at this point (albeit still hopefully socialistic), but Musk is just so unlikable that I can't bring myself to like any of the stuff he does. Not super rational, but the only way I could find joy in the SpaceX stuff was if it wasn't tied to an autist with a god complex. Btw. - unrelated - have you seen the 3h Nick Land interview from 2 days ago? Also btw. afaik appending "machine" to "techno-capital" is a dubious Beff Jesos construction. Bad if Marc A. attributes it to Land.
I think what Nietzsche represents in German society is quiet interesting... imagine German society like a bow shooting an arrow... Germany industrialized so late and so rapidly, and image the tension put on that German bowstring snapped from the bow... Nietzsche was the point along the strong which bore the most tension and which ultimately broke the string away and sent the arrow and the culture off its course... Nietzsche physically carried this tension in his body (look at his tensed and hunched over posture and his glasses, no doubt from constantly squinting his eyes). He had many ailments because of this tension and only literal distance from German society itself and some help from the decreased air pressure of higher altitudes freed him from this tension enough to reliably produce his works. Many of his works were essentially a produce of a manic episode he would experience from the release of all the tension he had built up at home.... he would shoot of like an arrow (or perhaps a precise yet rapid-fire machine gun). However, like a bowstring or machine gun, you can only put it through so much wear and tear before you will want replace it, otherwise it might break. It's like storing a rifle in the freezer in Africa... sure it might work if you take it out to us it... but the extra contraction expansion that it undergoes will destroy your shit so quick...
Plz read the joyful wisdom, birth of tragedy Zarathustra, etc for yourselves…from there read the Greek/roman classics with a new perspective. Nietzsche is often intentionally misleading, much in him to lead ppl down dangerous paths
Jesus Christ was something that wasn't just human but super-human. He represented an evolution above and beyond the goods and evils of his time, lighting a new path with a new spirit. The goal of this path and this spirit is exactly what Nietzsche says we human beings are (a bridge)... a bridge to what...? A bridge which leads towards the procreation of humanity in the image of Christ (the super-human incarnate)... The irony of this probably shattered his brain and froze his nervous system... he literally glitched out like a program that frozen in the system... Eternal reoccurrence... okay... why didn't he just... make the leap back to where he started as his philosophy demanded? Back to the beginning... why didn't he go back to Christ? Lol
@Havre_Chithra His soul was so weak it let his mind get away with moral relativism. A mind that isn't counterbalanced by the soul comes up with its own "morality". But it's really just selfshness with moral makeup.
