First Parodites book is out

How do you figure? :thinking: (:clown_face:) I mean, I do very often curse, in English, with ā€˜Fuck Jesus!’, ā€˜Fuck the fuck Jesus’, etc.; but also with ā€˜Fuckmothers’, 'Fuck mothers’, etc.

Gaudete (Els Berros De La Cort - Topic)

You’re a, watchamacallit, a modern socialist atheist. That’s a particularly rigid branch of Protestantism.

A modern national socialist atheist, right? And an international communist (and thereby a fascist), of course. As diametrically opposed to Putin-lover Jakob’s national communism, with Trump, and the AfD, and all that totally non-fascist stuff..

Nah, I’m a liberal of the most centrist kind… although I do favour the left over the right, but also the near left over the far left. Not long ago, to be sure, I was far, far left in a way (here’s from a private email from late November 2024, for example):

ā€˜[I]n my political philosophy, I play at seriousness. My unofficial girlfriend has repeatedly said she’d have thought I were rightwing, not leftwing; and on one occasion I told her I’d said half-jokingly before, to others, that I’m so far to the right that I’m on the left again. Well, my hostility is far, far right, but although the left is really the side of the herd, I simply loathe Trump and everything like him; besides, it’s all relatively leftwing to me, anyway… For humanity to be saved from itself, I think it should become all herd again, so that in the distant future, another human history might emerge from that new prehistory… This and this alone is the reason I’m now far, far left. But she cannot know that.’

My liberalism, however, is the most centrist and thereby the most extreme:

No, just the vanilla kind.

Nope! Way too baroque, I stopped it within seconds.

Well, I suppose. After all, you and Jakob know me better than I know myself..

I mean, you’re right, all the flavours are slight variations on the same Protestant branch.

No taste.

And he calls me modern…

Sure, everything you don’t like is Protestant, far left, national-socialist fascist, etc…

Nah, the alt-right movement is the new Fascism; all these disgusting, frustrated little trolls, these petty-bourgeois domestic tyrant wannabes, offended and at the same time ā€œironicā€, are simply the new brownshirts. Yes, Jakob is a Nazi and his ancestors would be spinning in their graves. But hey, it’s okay! I’m only a left-leaning centrist because I think liberal democracy is the best (the least bad) for philosophy, and because I like to counteract the far right, and also the far left, in a non-escalating way.

The Catholic Church’s marriage to Christ is a gay marriage.

If Zizek is right, and God being dead means nothing is permitted, then what do we make of the modern socialist atheist’s extremely narrow path of permission?

Divine dictate?

I gotta up my game. What a excellent hat.

Those aren’t really atheists, you dufus… They’re ā€œspiritualā€, you know! :grinning_face:

ā€œThe death of god means the destruction of mankind, of any community, whether within one’s own self or country or mankind or the universe. It isolates the nihilist in the nothingness revealed by radical atheism. Horror of this isolation usually prevents more than half-hearted atheism, driving men to revere mere jackasses, shadows of the now dead god. The politically loudest form of contemporary jackass worship is the democratic-socialistic effort to embrace the christian morality while destroying the last vestiges of the traditional Christian faith responsible for that morality.
Contemporary democratic ā€œliberationā€ movements generally despise traditional Christian orthodoxy while asserting the supreme goodness of its compassion for suffering, impoverished humanity. They insist that men have a right to life, freedom and equality. Had they been tough enough to experience uncompromising atheism, they would see no compelling reason for these rights or for any morality. Like the Pale Criminal, they need their morality in order not to appear insane to a reason informed by common sense. Morality in all its forms springs from dread of radical, incommunicable nihilism.ā€ (Harry Morris Neumann, Liberalism, ā€œNietzscheā€.)

Mere moral man Jakob pretends my Holochrist is moralistic, just as he pretends everything besides him and his fellow fascists are fascistic (and that his own misery is everyone else’s fault rather than his own; his only fault is that he’s been too mild and too kind… Recently, he blamed you for everything, didn’t he, Van Man! Don’t worry, not long before that it was all my fault, and not long before that, Vincent’s)…

To be sure, though, back then I still thought the Pleistocene was worth something, meant something… How moralistic and haughty! I know.

ā€œMankind’s destruction or the destruction of all life would change nothing in a nihilist reality.ā€ (op.cit., previous chapter.)

Darth Nihilus revealed (Papito Qinn)

I’ve never seen somebody use so many words to arrive at the exact same position a 20 year old Liberal Arts major girl has (and be just as gossipy).

The work of Parodites:

The skill of Parodites:

Just an observation.

So is this self-actualization or group actualization?

The first rule of group actualization:

You seem to trigger easily. Much like Nietzsche, who raged about the revenge of forgiveness being cruel, but was totally fine with sacrificing people he didn’t like ā€œin the mass to the prosperity of a single stronger species of manā€.

True strength right there. Full contact with reality.

I forgive you, Ichthus.

I’m joking, I would never do that.

Wait.

Two choices:

  1. reconciliation
  2. reckoning

I stopped keeping count too long ago. God will give me the final tally.

Really is that how you imagine everything?

That’s so sad.

It is what it is. My cache doesn’t have space for it.
