“All art has its origin in the folk” is either a self-evident truth (platitude) or a lie that has long since ran its course. Art is the highest expression of a folk. - Stefan George

@AtomicAgeGnomad are you implying that the cult of beauty spewed all over the e-political scene is nothing but a sick parody, even a commodification, of its former self? that they have retro projected their perversions in the cheapest manner onto the ancients? 🤣

@SchattigeDer "The Dionysian religion represented the apotheosis both of Aphroditean pleasure and of universal brotherhood; hence it was readily accepted by the servile classes and encouraged by tyrants…since it favored the democratic development on which their tyranny was based" Bachofen

there has been much talk recently about capital punishment, and this poast isn't about the details of some criminal that was spared for too long through the byzantine legal system and those various groups that lobby for a denial of the real nature of criminality in a failing

‘Exploitation’ and ‘suppression’ are outdated mythologies, negative utopias, suggesting an easy way out of this situation, e.g. by ‘revolution’. -Luhmann

@SchattigeDer Dare a Vitalist respond? "Dionysus is a woman’s god in the fullest sense of the word, the source of all woman’s sensual and transcendent hopes, the center of her whole existence. It was to women that he was first revealed in his glory, and it was women who propagated his cult"

It’s been a pleasure to work with @SchattigeDer . I translated the poetic portion. Great liberties have been taken to preserve the rhyme scheme, meter and cadence (do consult the German OG). More to come.

To add to this, let's take a look at Heidegger’s lecture on Nietzsche from 1936-1940, reworked in 1943 - Herein Nihilism is intertwined with H.’s concept of the ‘forgetting of being,’ hence ontological nihilism or reducing the world to a mere “stored reserve” awaiting plunder.1/x

Nietzsche's solidarity of the wheel stands between the eternal return and the planetary power of technology. The overcoming of man and the overcoming of the earth are a single process, Nietzsche wants to divide them, or at least withstand the ultimate collision.

Difference between Schmitt/Jünger and Nietzsche is about structure of eternity: the conservative revolution is a resumption of the perspective of eternity in its perenity; Nietzsche takes eternity as eternal return. In other words, paganism X Christianity. There are no synthesis.

In the Glossarium Schmitt criticizes F.G. Jünger’s myopic use of myth, emphasizing that without the supplement of dialectics it falls short of grasping the technical. Still, there is something profound in F.G.’s Titanic: the mythic has strayed from the forest into the city.

Intellectuals scoff at attributing representation to the masses, "there is no democracy in practice" yet they are quick to assign "will" and "desire" to 'the people'. Such is the black mirror of statistics, polls, and political fancy.

Plato's republic is perfect. Everyone agrees it's amazing, we all have to read it. Yet we refuse to give it a try. The first idea was the best one.

A telling scene: Werther's humble origins prove an unforgivable faux pas, and the sensitive young man is ejected from an aristocratic gathering. He brushes them off as insipid and then drives "to see the sun set from the hill and read Homer’s glorious verses about Ulysses..."
