Da brat!

This is the right outlook. The only way to rebuild the world is to have vision, character and capital.

That’s how we’re going to do this

Came back from the abyss as you say myself in 2023, for basically the same reasons. The gym was one of the things that saved me and the notion that if it did all break down I was going to take a few of them down with it, ha. As John recently posted, there has been a vibe shift for the ages, I´ve felt that. The lefties are in complete projectile denial. Maybe how conservatives felt in the late 60s, idk. I see that there is a white pill to take now and I think many will. It's great to have some real leadership again, but it's up to us to support that and hold it accountable. Doing martial arts and eating meat does tend to clear the mind. We've been the outsiders, now we know why. We were meant for this. The trials were to harden and focus us. Stay vigilant, keep building and live honorably.

Very well put brother. Reminds me of the Nietzsche quote: “there is more wisdom in the body than in your deepest philosophy”

This is an advantage we’ve always had. Only we’ve been drowning in manufactured guilt for too long and let the uglies take over all the positions of power and influence.

That’s going to change. We have character. We now have some momentum. Soon we’ll have the capital.

Yes brother, I agree. The manufactured guilt...that the problems of the world were due to us. The plausibility had been there with the way we were taught history and the fact that men had basically been the boss for our known history. Maybe they had a point and we should let women and the meek have a turn and see if it comes out differently.

Well, it turns out the the strong men of moral character were what was keeping things from devolving into debauchery and savagery all along. We see it now. The jig is up. The spell is broken. These positions have to be filled by merit, to the benefit of all.

As most countries are broke, I wonder which one will offer land in exchange for bitcoin? Land to build a private city, a private country, a kingdom? Interesting to think about.

I spend pages and pages discussing it in the book. These are the kinds of questions I like to ask, because the answers will be found, along the way.

To learn "Resolve" you have to experience the death of hope. It's not one of the normal virtues that you can practice regularly. Resolve is something that happens after the 'final' crisis point, when you've been reasoned with, fought against and overpowered, and it's more than a willingness to die fighting or take the other guy with you—bears and wolves will take you down with them just fine, but they can't understand the justification for warfare that's truly without expectation of success or survival. This isn't explainable in natural terms.

But think about this: Rome would have never become "Rome" if it had done the sane and reasonable thing, the logical thing that most Romans begged to do, and made the completely understandable decision to surrender to Hannibal after three of its armies, the entirety of its leadership and the creme of its aristocracy were butchered at Trebia, Lake Trasmiene, and (worst of all) Cannae. They had to earn the right to greatness before becoming "great."

Beautifully put. And yes. To come back from the abyss is a rare experience. One that builds a kind of character that no other experience can.
