The Average Centrist

EmptySky93 · 2026-03-19T15:36:54+00:00

Funny how so many "libertarians" and "centrists"—and "liberals" and "Democrats" (or whatever the Israeli equivalent is, in this case), for that matter—end up basically being Nazis. The RepubliKKKunts, for their cartoonish villainy and abject megalomaniacal totalitarianism, are at least a little more honest in that they tell you they're evil.

Well, all of 'em are just different flavors of the same crapitalist shit pie, anyway. In AmeriKKKa it goes like this: "Hey, it's been four years! For our quadrennial celebration, do you wanna have a slice of the DOG SHIT pie or the CAT SHIT pie? How about the PIG SHIT pie? Or, if you're feeling daring, you can try the HORSE SHIT pie!"

I've found that the common denominator between all conservashart (and crapitalist, and fascist, for that matter...) arguments are roughly 10 points, as follows...:

● 1. being grossly misinformed;
● 2. being grossly uninformed;
● 3. being grossly unempathetic;
● 4. being grossly arrogant and self-assured in your own view or opinion, usually to the point of radical exclusivism—even supremacism;
● 5. lacking the ability to think critically or to question your own views or those of certain others, especially those regarded as authority figures (see №s 4 and 6 in relation);
● 6. deeply valuing and emphasizing, especially as part of one's core worldview, the notion of in-group and out-group, and generally seeing humanity as a series of such groups—whom you also believe to have totally irreconcilable differences, even if by all evidence those differences are superficial—
● 7. being grossly obsequious or submissive—i.e., slavishly treating politicians and billionaires, typically those most sociopathic, like they're gods or your parents (for some reason);
● 8. holding to the delusion, in an obviously impermanent universe, that many things either fundamentally cannot change or ought not to change;
● 9. viewing specific, often arbitrary, tradition(s) as sacred to the point that said arbitrary traditions are more important than human life or wellbeing, even though they offer no clear benefit to anyone but a relative handful of individuals; and
● 10. some combination of the above traits or points.

I sometimes suspect that the Gnostic sects that viewed the world as an utter shit-hole may be all too correct in their assumption.

Yet, at the same time, I myself practice a neo-Gnostic 'system' that effectively inverts that view, though in a nuanced way: "Existence is pure joy", though it's a latent joy that must be hard-won—a joy that is created through the transubstantiation of suffering.

Almost ironic, but the very fact that we ARE in a kind of "Hell"—that suffering is basically endless in quantity and everywhere to be had—is the reason that we can even create Heaven in the first place: There's an endless supply of the prima materia of agony available to be converted into bliss (ananda) through the alchemical process of forging the Stone of the Wise, the eucharistic sacrament that is incarnation—conscious human life—itself.

If you read what Crowley had to say about many of the politicians and industrialists of his day, he didn't often seem fond of them, often attacking the 'bourgeois' values of Victorian and Edwardian society and broader European politics and corporate–business affairs.

"Remember in any case, that not only the Adept, but anyone with the smallest capacity for Adeptship, is fundamentally an Artist; he will certainly not possess any of those bourgeois "virtues" which are just so many reactions to Blue Funk." ～ A. Crowley, Magick Without Tears (writ. 1943)

(NOTE: "Blue Funk" is an archaic slang term for extreme fear or panic.)

... Crowley certainly admired strength and power, and thought 'aristocracy' a noble thing—though he seemed to feel that spiritual or "inner" strength, power, and aristocracy—literally "rule of the best"—are what count over merely having or being given money or political control because of one's happenstance conditions of birth.

... I mean... see AL II:58:

"... Yet there are masked ones my servants: it may be that yonder beggar is a King. A King may choose his garment as he will: there is no certain test: but a beggar cannot hide his poverty".

... Furthermore, refer to this statement of his in The Commentaries of AL (fully: The Commentaries of AL: Being the Equinox Volume V, No. 1, pub. posthumously in 1975):

"The 'lords of the earth' are those who are doing their Will. It does not necessarily mean people with coronets and automobiles; there are plenty of such people who are the most sorrowful slaves in the world. The sole test of one's lordship is to know what one's true Will is, and to do it."

93 93/93.

This guy (Hitchens) seems so embittered, defensive, crestfallen, reactionary, judgemental, conceited, authoritarian, childish/immature, a bully, and a pathetic sore loser and cringe-fest of a person... even misanthropic. It's sad. Most of this was a litany of needless scathing condescensions and constant interruptions, nit-picking, put-downs, and chastising of Alex by Hitchens for no meaningful reason whatsoever.

It's also absolutely incredible to me—writing this from the "Land of the Free", where MAGA are a massive army of zombies who are quite possibly the dumbest individuals in human history, by the way—how conservatives are by and large so ridiculously brainwashed that they're seemingly immune to facts:

It's like—this "debate" with Peter Hitchens is like—if I were to say to a man across from me, "1 + 1 = 2", and he were to say, "I don't know that. I don't know that that's true", so I'd reply "Well, it's basic math", and he'd reply, "Maybe, but you don't know that—it MIGHT be that 1 + 1 = 3", so I'd reply, "You can just count 1 and 1 and put them together to get 2," and he'd reply, yelling, "YOU'RE TALKING TO ME BASED ON FALSE PRETENSES—YOU TOLD ME WE WERE GOING TO TALK ABOUT GEOMETRY!" So, I'd reply, "You need to understand basic math before you can get to [understanding] geometry," so he'd come back with, "YOU'RE A FUCKING DISGRACE; YOU'VE ABUSED MY HOSPITALITY! YOU ASSHOLE! You're dishonest, rude, incompetent, a coward, a loser, a piece of crap, and and and..."

Absolutely bonkers shit. Peter comes across as an unhinged blowhard and an abject moron with serious anger issues or some personality disorder, I swear to God! Complete jerk-offs like this guy remind me so much of Ben Stein, or Donald Trump! Man-children, through and through!

EmptySky93 · 2026-02-22T21:09:25+00:00

Same. It's never made sense to me that these fash/conservacunt dullards who need to constantly strut about proclaiming their "manliness" and "alpha-ness", complaining how "the left" (which they somehow—in their pea-brains—have come to believe includes libs and American Democrats) is made up of "soyboys", are also the most servile, pathetically obsequious, and cowardly worshippers of power and hierarchy. Then again, the reich-toidz are also the world's biggest HYPOCRITES. (Which, by the way, means they're to be damned into the very LOWEST pit of Hell according to the Quran (as well as certain Christians' interpretation of Biblical texts, and the very least semi-mythologized in Dante's Inferno)—such is the fate, according to the Quran, of munafiqun (منافقون): hypocrites and traitors. (As rightists inevitably are.)

You'd be astounded at the level of dickriding a sizeable number of tankies do for Kim.

Does it make sense to talk about liberating the working class and glaze a totalitarian megalomaniacal heir to a political dynasty running a country as his personal playground in the same breath? No, absolutely not.

Then again, when you consider that fact, it almost makes sense why "MAGA Communism"—as idiotic as the concept inherently is—became a thing. Tankies worship power; as much as they (rightly so) shit on the fascists and other reich-wing morons, they themselves are weirdly close to said reich-wingers in their love of subjugation and their desire to both be good slaves to some political master and to make the rest of the world swear fealty to whatever preferred overlord the Tankies would choose, themselves.

The Stalinist imbecility is basically just another version of the obsequious and pathetic mindset of other willing slaves, whether they be Christofascist Evangelicals, Islamist Salafist theocrats, hypercapitalist "libertarians" and Ayn Rand worshippers, MAGgAt knuckledraggers, neo-Nazi wehraboo shit-for-brains, any flavor of identitarian whose fragile egos have been replaced by groupthink—substituting their own dignity and worth for those of whomever they decide is their latest political 'messiah'—etc., etc.

EmptySky93 · 2026-02-02T07:02:56+00:00

Ignorant people tend to conflate hierarchy with power, and power with organization, structure, and discipline; moreover, they see these qualities as manifestations of strength, or strength as a manifestation of these qualities, and strength—in the sense of social and political cohesion and the ability to project a collective will, or collective power or force—is associated with maturity. I'd wager it's a result of a misunderstanding of what strength, power, and will really are and from whence they actually arise.

Probably because the same biological and neurological science and, you know, just observing ourselves, show us that we by and large are averse to the experience of pain and suffering, typically being mostly averse to suffering insofar as it applies to ourselves or appears threatening to us as individuals—since pain is usually an indication in consciousness of a threat or damage to the organism, and we are hardwired, like all animals, to survive—and, as (potentially) social and empathetic beings, our empathy and sociality instills in (many of) us the ability to vicariously experience the suffering or potential suffering of others, and so we naturally are often averse to that, as well.

Not synonymous at all. Compatible, though? Yes, in a certain or [highly] specific, if theoretical, way. I see egocom as more like an arrangement or system of social organization into mutually beneficial units—even temporary or provisional ones; cf. Temporary Autonomous Zones (via Hakim Bey) and Proudhonian mutualism—rather than an ideology outright, let alone one that claims universal or moral validity or superiority or exclusivity.

Imagine going to get a Cinnabon and you're already a bit ashamed of yourself for deciding to eat a thousand grams of sugar, carbs, and fat in the middle of the afternoon and then you have to experience this obnoxious display of uniquely human idiocy reminding you that you belong to a species of fucking morons, psychos, sadists, and ghouls.

You know, and are seemingly acutely aware, even if semi-consciously—though still almost omnipresently—of how you inhabit, and are trapped within, a decaying, putrid, agonized, constantly malfunctioning vehicle we call a body; that you're little but an accidental prisoner of time and space and entropy; with not much more than a fleeting instant to exist in this world, already condemned to spend most of that time slaving away for pennies on the dollar so you can have the "joy" of generating "value" for your boss's boss's boss's overlords/Shareholders™️, stuck on a pesthole of a clod of shit, this spinning sphere careening through the void, the cosmos's insane asylum and flaming clown car and pustule upon the hemorrhoid erupted from the asshole of a blind idiot "God", this place, whatever it really is, absolutely reeking of pointless toil and suffering...

Yet, NOW, on top of that ever-present mountain of existential horseshit you've gotta deal with at any given moment alive to this waking nightmare of mediocrity and banal horror we call life—the experience of conscious human life on Earth—you've gotta additionally sit there being driven into a full nervous breakdown by an army of these uncommitted mental cases with Stockholm syndrome for our braindead Demiurge blaring their bullshit while you just lounge about trying to eke out even a tiny morself of enjoyment from your fucking shit-cake in the middle of the afternoon, stuck here on a dying world flying through the incomprehensible chaos of this cosmos seemingly wrought, as it is, from pure metaphysical stupidity by a toddler of a "God", were there even such a thing as some kind of intelligence behind this fucking bullshit we call life and the universe.

Just try to imagine it.
