What do you have to lose? You must reject vice. The comfort of this world will lead to your death. It dulls your senses and takes away your frame of mind.

We saw that man is able to resist the assault of pain to the degree that he is capable of self-detachment.

-Jünger

You’ve got to go on the hero’s journey. Fight for your civilization to survive and make your enemies afraid. Firstly, the rules for living in the modern world is a lot different than living in a traditional society. You would be rewarded for your hard work in a normal world.

In modern times you have to go with the flow and support the “progress” or you will be a social outcast. Back in the day, if you were a man that was stoic and worked hard. You would be rewarded with a family, respect, a community, and looked at as a valuable member. Now, moreover, to be virtuous man today, you are ignored treated like garbage. And so they need you participating to enable the degenerates and than they will reward them if they don’t have a breakdown for a day. The man that goes with the flow of society today is soft and weak. Above all, he that is against the current is labeled as the evil of the world.

All Lose Is Gain

“Take away religion, take away philosophy, take away the higher aims of art, and you deprive ordinary people of the ways in which they can represent their apartness. Human nature, once something to live up to, becomes something to live down to instead. Biological reductionism nurtures this ‘living down’, which is why people so readily fall for it. It makes cynicism respectable and degeneracy chic. It abolishes our kind, and with it our kindness.”
― Roger Scruton, Face of God: The Gifford Lectures

Millennia’s of sacrifice all leading to you. History and culture running through your veins. You don’t have to be obsessed with it, but you don’t get to disrespect it. All the blood shed for you wasn’t fir you to lay video games and jack off. You need to become who you are. Don’t live in the apathy and nihilism that prevails our age. Work toward being someone your future generations can be proud off.

The antithesis of this is to rage against the world in self destructive ways that hurt everyone they come in contact with. Obviously Stephen Paddock’s shooting was some psyop or something. But take the narrative at face value. A man who has everything the world tells him he needs. Millions of dollars and a young girlfriend. Spending your time gambling in Las Vegas. The sensible option of a boomer with no kids to make an impact is to do what he did. Have the highest body count of any shooter in the history of America.

This is your life, and it’s ending one minute at a time. There isn’t more than this. You’ve got to understand this. You will lose the rat race if your goal is to win. What do you think is going to happen? You become rich and famous. Find the beautiful love of your life. Never have to work again. Everyone loves you. No problems no more. This isn’t how life works. You will kill yourself at thirty with this mindset. Using Scarface as a playbook leads to a similar ending.
