So insightful and clearly articulated James, thank you for putting words to something I’ve been grappling with for the last few years.
I find myself easily seduced by these Gods, and galvanized to their needs, as you say so well. Even as I begin to congratulate myself for steering the middle channel, suddenly I’ll be reactively, emotionally defending the Titans of the Right, with receipts amply furnished, in response to lefty wrongspeak. Ironic and frustrating.
I’m printing this one out and will distribute it to the very few I know who might be able to appreciate the value of your understanding of our predicament. Yeah that probably sounds arrogant, but sadly it’s true in my world.
I absolutely loved reading this, but this sentence is inscrutable. Is there a word missing or is the sentence incomplete? I don't understand how the word "cannot" functions here. I may be being obtuse but could you or someone kindly clarify? Thank you!
Thinking careers are built by naming a fragment of a god and letting the reader think it can be beaten, but cannot.
Interestingly I think many of us are doing a similar accounting as you’re doing with your relationship to Chomsky. Jasun Horsley is doing that with Carlos Castaneda. I’ve been doing it with various occult teachers and music figures. It does seem many were players and withheld a lot of information. Possibly for personal gain.
I abandoned astrology after 10 years when I realized the old gods are very much alive. And historically known to be rape-y and vindictive. I’m rather sick of being messed with personally. And actually Paul Stobb’s book Nephilim Angels Look Like Clowns helped shape this perspective for me too. He says demons are disembodied spirits from the Nephilim giants who died here but their souls are trapped just out of our range of perception. They were the offspring of fallen Angels and humans who were ruled by their bottomless vices— also stupid and violent. And many people it seems, including shamans, lead humans into possession situations.
As for tactics, Faulkner Blackfeather suggests David’s approach— 5 stones on hand and only one required to land between the eyes. 🪨 👀

Of course we can end culture wars, by recognizing culture is maladaptive.
